Amakuni Kizin King J-Der Option Parts Set
With King J-der’s box
The box is roughly the same size as King J-der’s, just an inch or so less thick.
J-Ark
Air-to-Air Maser Missiles (sometimes ES/ Escape Space Missiles)
The effects parts are plugged into the openable ports on the side of the ship.
The middle sections of the effects pieces are on ball joints and when rotated, it skews the direction of the missiles! Really ingenious!
While it is possible to also plug in the effects parts onto the bottom sides of the ship, you will have to elevate the ship some more to have the clearance to do it. The default support struts included for the J-Ark are too low by themselves to give you the proper range.
Anti-Meson Cannons effects parts
J-Bird Plasma Wing – We finally have the proper look for the J-Bird! These pieces really should have been included in the main set as we never see the J-Bird without his wings.
Plasma Swords
Just a reminder, to pull out King J-der’s feet, you have to open up the side panels and push the slider back to allow you to pull out the inner leg assembly.
To recreate the phoenix tail effect scene from Gaogaigar Final when both G-Stone and J-Jewel are in effect onboard King J-der when it does Mega Fusion, you’ll have to plug in this additional support bracket onto King J-der’s back first.
Then, you’ll need to plug in each effect piece into this connection adapter.
Then plug it all together into the support bracket.
KING J-DER!
You’ll need roughly 18 inches of height and width to display this effects set up.
Anti-Meson Cannons effects parts
Maser Cannons/ Five-Linked Maser Cannon effects parts
To make sure the wrists stay straight when the heavy effects parts are plugged in, it’s recommended you use these wrist clips to help. You will need to deal with the firing missiles forever attached to the clips though, as that makes the whole thing no longer screen accurate.
Without the clip, the whole hand just droops down.
Air-to-Air Maser Missiles (sometimes ES/ Escape Space Missiles)
To plug moaaar missile effects parts, attach this backpack with connection ports to King J-der’s back.
It’s really quite an impressive sight to see when you’ve got the whole thing set up! Pretty darn wild!
J-Quath
The phoenix effects piece is just plugged into the side of the right arm. I can’t say I am satisfied with the execution of how it connects, though, the pins that hold it in place could’ve been bigger and more sturdier IMHO.
ZX Core – The core of a Primeval is included in the set. It’s bigger than your average Zonderian core.
Everything all together!
Alternate take with the Anti-Meson Cannons
Silverion Hammer – This actually happened in one of the non-canon endings in the Playstation One game “King of Braves Gaogaigar: Blockaded Numbers”. It was a puzzle/ visual novel game released back in 1999 and featured two scenarios, each meant to have happened in between the events of episodes 14 and 15 (Valner of the Sea), and in between episodes 43 and 44 (Golden Fang, Silver Claw). There’s a clip of this over on Youtube if you want to check it out.
Depending on the player’s skill, some scenarios play out differently. In one scenario, Gaogaigar is badly beaten by the combined EI-72 and 73 (Zonderized Chief Taiga and Hyuuma). King J-der uses the Goldion Hammer in Gaogaigar’s place to save the Zonderized duo. The J-Jewel causes the hammer to change into silver instead of gold.
J-DER HELL!
J-DER HEAVEN! – King J-der pulls out the twin Zonder cores using its Maser Cannon barrels.
HIKARI NI NARE!
Overall, I love it! I have to say I wasn’t expecting this level of fun for effects pieces. The ES Missile effects parts are really something! I love how posey they are! I didn’t get this level of satisfaction when I saw the missile effects parts for the Hi Metal R Marcross set from a few years back, but this one really impressed me.
The only downside is that the set is really, really pricey for an add-on kit (practically two-thirds the price of J-Der). But it seriously bumps up the King J-der by a lot when fully displayed!
