Super Robot Chogokin - Gaogaigar

GaoGaiGar also known as the "King of Braves" was built to combat the extraterrestrial threat known as Zonder. It is the combination of four components which are GaiGar, DrillGao, LinerGao and StealthGao. In order for the combination to take place, the act of Final Fusion must be approved by the Chief of GGG (Koutarou Taiga), followed by the relevant operator (Mikoto Utsugi, or Swan White in her absence) breaking through the safety glass on her panel and hitting the button that engages "Program Drive."

Gaogaigar with Choryujin.
This is my first Super Robot Chogokin figure. Overall I am pretty impressed by the detail and quality of the figure. Initially I was a bit skeptical of venturing into the SRC line but Bandai did not disappoint me and I will be looking forward to getting the other mechas from this series.
