It's also one of the only upgrade sets that I can think of where the company had to make a robot to go with it due to its overwhelming popularity. iirc it started as a core robot for a Nova Prime and got back-ported to the Battle Tanker upgrade.
This thing has one of the coolest upgrade kits ever put to plastic. Maketoys Battle Tanker.

a fresh noggin and a trailer full of extras that all do stuff. it takes a toy that was already pretty good for its age and makes it a barrel of fun.

it's also 3mm clip compatible! Play features!
It's a shame Gaogaigar never got a full dub. But hey, you get to listen to Adult Link from Ocarina of Time have actual spoken dialogue on top of his hot-blooded yells.
This is my issue. the game costed $13M to make. It's going to sell to the tune of at least $1B, and that's not including the $30 DLC (likely budget of $2M) or $17 Home subscription.

Gamefreak makes *bank*, but they're never given the time or budget to make something amazing, only "sellable".
I absolutely believe that having game budgets climbing into the several hundreds of millions is equally a terrible idea, just look at Hollywood or Square Enix.

I just want Pokemon to have enough of a budget to not feel like it's stuck in the Wii U era forever and have polish deserving of its price.
Pokemon should at least be putting about $30-50 Million into their games considering they're charging full AAA Price for them. Plus DLC. Plus Home. Plus NSO

Pokemon is stupid expensive these days, and with a budget as low as that, 98% of sales is just pure profit

They can do more and choose not to
She is the only one of the Scions with any fiscal sense whatsoever. Do I need to remind you of how much money Alphinaud dropped on a Katana?
AC2 was a mess of a game, but it was a mess that I had a lot of fun playing.
running Dolphin on your AC's OS is peak Yeag behavior.
my favorite part about Hisoutensoku is that he comes in two flavors: Z2 and F-Final.
Lv18 Prevail with a 99% damage reduction at 10% HP was the funniest glitch ever put to a Super Robot Wars.

(Oops I forgot to say this sooner -) I've made a ton of progress on my game :D!!! Environments are textured, and there's a decent amount of missions! Next up: the final super-mission, which you can approach from many different angles (each with their own unique objective)! youtu.be/JJWQAxyjkQU?...

Can we please pull a Morbius and try to trick Disney into putting the film into theatres twice for it to fail twice?
Okay, but consider: Movie model with Katoki's paintjob.
No. Everything has to be more expensive, harder to get, and easier to scalp.

Even with the large addons of Star Gaogaigar, the robot is so bottom-heavy that it really doesn't add all that much trouble to his balancing. The only time I think it ever gets Problematic is with Goldymarg, but you're putting an entire extra robot on one side. What did you expect?
HEY! Hey. Gaogaigar can stand *perfectly fine* with an entire stealth bomber on its back.
It better be big considered it had to be hard-wired to the Ra Cailum to get power at all.
I miss forums because they were a treasure trove of lived experiences and shared information. Now everything is in a discord that was shut down 6 weeks ago because the creator had a fit over something dumb.
I pirate because a lot of the shows that I want to watch are older and can't be streamed legally. If I want to watch the shows I've been watching, I either get stopped by region-blocking, have to search for early 2000s DVDs that have never been reprinted, or literally have no legal option outright.
There's something distinct about the Animated figures that just can't be captured by the Unification (Siege and onwards) figures.

Not saying that the Legacy Animated Prime was bad, far from it, but...come ON, look at this guy! There's nothing quite like him!
I'll never understand why governments like the UK feel an overwhelming need to litigate away every little joy in life instead of focusing on bigger problems that actually matter.

like the dilapidating NHS? or the collapsing infrastructure? No, we're going to ban Soda refills? really?
the Wii U was on perpetual life support and belched out a bunch of shovelware (and a few good games that got ported to the 3DS of all things lmao)
