Welcome to my video of DX Kidenju Won Tiger [気伝獣ウォンタイガー] from Gosei Sentai Dairanger [五星戦隊ダイレンジャー]!
Won Tiger is the mecha of Kibaranger [キバレンジャー]. It is similar to Ryuranger's Ryuseioh [龍星王] in that it can tranform into a humanoid "Battle Mode", called Kidenbujin Won Tiger [気伝武人ウォンタイガー], and that it can also combine with Tenkuu Kiden [天空気殿] to form a new mecha.
Won Tiger comes with two miniature Kibaranger pieces, the Ogonken [黄金剣] and feet for Seihouou [星鳳凰].
As I mentioned earlier, Won Tiger can combine with the Tenkuu Kiden to become Kibadaioh [牙大王].
Won Tiger is notable for being one of the earliest toy mechas that features a sound other than beeping as well as having great arm articulation (previously seen in DX Liverobo from Liveman). It is a quality toy with excellent play value. The only issue I have is, once again, the damn stickers. It's not nearly as bad as Dairenoh's sticker sheet (a.k.a. The eternal riddle of the universe) but there are still too many complicated stickers to apply in areas with somewhat limited access. Other than that...it's great!
This toy was released by Bandai America for Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers as the White Tigerzord. While the mold of the toy itself was unchanged, there was a number of major changes made. For starters, a large figure of the White Ranger was included as well as a coin for the Power Morpher. Curiously, the coin included was of the Tiger illustration from Dairanger rather than the "fang" logo from Kibaranger's chest that ended up on the coin seen in the show. Also, the stickers were very different with "W" replacing the kanji on the shoulders as well as the addition of those lousy power bolts. The plastic was a solid white while Won Tiger has a flecked plastic resembling the look of Won Tiger's suit in the show. Later versions of this toy also ditched the chromed plastic sword for a soft plastic version. Finally, the kanji on the orbs was removed entirely for some reason.
Which version to buy is entirely up to you. The US version does give you more for your money, but the Dairanger version is a much more accurate toy in ways that just changing the stickers can't fix. Also, the boxart for Won Tiger is absolutely gorgeous...
