Hello everyone,

It has been a long time!
I'm back with my next review of the Sacred Beast Legend Bioroid toy line series by toy companies MARK, SELECT and HERO.
The review is on the justice legion, Trianforce. I have finally completed all 9, after many years of searching and being patient!

Here we go with the review!

Nice in boxes with some little light scuffes or faded otherwise all great condition! I found all 5 box flaps peg holes unpunched which I wasn't expecting to but was surprised somehow it worked out!
The artwork is fantastic and the details of the box is very colourful and appealing. I feel like the art invokes like they could be in a cartoon!

INSIDE PACKAGING

Toys come in styrofoam insert, total of 8 weapon accessories, and 1 catalog each.
Gotta love the way they came in good ol 80s styrofoam inserts!

THE TOYS

Bioroid modes.
Names from left to right: Octymus, Blarde, Gluverda, Gallagar, Thaitan
This is where I find the Bioroid series really shines uniquely! All have interesting and unique half humanoid and half beast figures. The idea feels like it fits during the 80s of Japanese robot/human related toys/tv shows during that popular time and other 80s related toys.

TRIANFORCE

All 9 Trianforce complete together in Beast modes and Bioroid modes!
I always wanted to do a group picture of these toys since from my searches I've never seen anyone else do this but I hope to find more people who love and collect these toys!

COMPARISONS
Image
Image
Left: Original Japanese versions / Right: International versions
The differences are so interesting among the 2 versions, we have the humanoid/beast original Japanese versions and the robotic/beast International versions that were both utilized by different toy companies all around the world which is great that they got quite a bit of exposure during the 80s/90s and the popular time of G1 Transformers and other transforming toys in general of the 80s!

Well that's it for my review on the complete Trianforce set!
I hope you enjoyed it!
