Didn't Tomy's normal Gojulas light up? I know Gojulas Giga lights up and roars.

Yeah, the normal Gojulas has a blinky light in the head. It's separate from the motor, though—it's powered by AAs in the backpack bits and can be switched on so your Gojulaseseses blink at you in the dark.

You mean Gungyarados? Yeah, I guess they do. Ol' Boot here just has an extra finger.
I forgot to mention but on the front part, the belly where the battery unit would've been on an actual Gojulas, the black piece is sunk back in the body a little bit which gives it this odd look. No guns were included, either.

Hehe,d Japs named it Gungyalado,bt i prefered the Gungyarados its fiercer..yeah,you're right..btw,does the tail have dat metal weight at the tail tip as counterbalance?d original Gojulases have coz of the heavier weight of the body

You shouldn't abbreviate Japanese as Japanese, it has...unfortunate historical connotations. I never could figure out where the "dos" in the romanization Gungyarados came from, since it was never in the Japanese stuff. Is it the Pokemon, or what? ...and by golly, those ARE Gungy's arms. Like, directly taken from Gungy, plus another finger. Weren't these around before the rerelease? That'd mean somebody somewhere got ahold of an original one to stick its arms on Gojulas' body to make a bootleg ;.

btw,does the tail have dat metal weight at the tail tip as counterbalance? If you mean the block thing at the very end of the tail, then yes. It's black so it might be hard to see in the pictures. It's not metal though, it's just a piece of plastic on Boot. That'd mean somebody somewhere got ahold of an original one to stick its arms on Gojulas' body to make a bootleg ;. rofl O WOW That is Gungy's whole freaking arm LOL. pds9.egloos.com/pds/200803/17/56/e0058556_47dddabbbfffb.jpgGod I thought you were just talking about his hand at first, I didn't think to check his whole arm.

Tilly: well,sorry for the abbreviation,i ddnt mean anything negativ with that.anyway thnx for correcting me : ) ...i ddnt realy know which was the real name: GUNGYARADOS or GUNGYALADO.coz wen im making my own list the first name i found was GUNGYARADOS.wen i acquired my kit kit last month the box has it: GUNGYALADO.bt id prefer the GUNGYARADOS Dano: yes,that's the one at the end of the tail.supposed to be heavier enuf to support the Goju's bodyweight.a metal block is inserted there as counterbalance,as also in the head of the orig releases (that's the reason why orig Gojus cn open their mouths).bt that's for the original releases.i dnt knw the structure of that one u gt.probably thats the reason why the front had a hollw area,and they made the motor probably jst big enuf nt to overweigh the whole unit

I would like to see this next to Gojulas... looks like they took the motor and stuck on some pieces then molded over it. It doesn't have the typical frames found on the early big Zoids and seems a bit shorter and definitely looks like he's been on a diet. I have to say I like the clawed feet better than the standard Gojulas! Though the claws are poorly done. And... don't the legs look dinky? It's like they have the same parts but miniaturized. The gungy arms are a surprisingly good fit, aren't they? I like that the backpack is remolded (obviously because they removed the flashers, which is ironic since their Liger has light up eyes). Looks like it can still hold a pilot, too. Cute little tail... hard to see the tip. It looks like they literally just chopped a full size one up and molded it in one piece, then stuck the block on the end sans hard points. The little clip on the top makes it look like there should be another fin there. Oops! I would really like to see a photo of the chest, since it looks like they totally created a new mold for it (it lacks the old battery cover and frames, so they had to do something!) I especially like the random screw holes all over it. I would like to get one of these and clean it up for a "Light Armor" version of Gojulas... it would take a lot of filing and sanding to get it to look sharp, but I could do a lot with one. Thanks for the review!

Look at that... it has the same battery cover as Gunbluster! Who would have guessed? Thanks for the update!
