Hello again, people, David Lee here again for another TOKU TOY review. Let's give a VROOM! to my latest toy review, the standard Gun part sidearm for 1996's Super Sentai Series, Gekisou Sentai Carranger. Yes, it's the Auto Blaster set. A friend helped me buy this in Japan and it costed me about RM100 or so including his shipping to me so it's considered a STEAL. Anyway, back to the history of this product. Many of us will remember this toy as the Gun / Blaster used by the heroes in Power Rangers Turbo. Yes, this is the actual Sentai counterpart and it spots some differences from the Power Rangers version.
I got this toy along with a Chouriki Henshin OhRed figure and a loose Accelular but as you can see, the Auto Blaster's box is in a very decent condition considering its age.
The contents inside is fairly simple. We have the Auto Blaster already set in Auto Punisher mode, a Belt at the bottom right, a shiny chrome silver Buckle and a big white Holster with the Carranger mark.
The Belt can actually be fitted in the Buckle and the holster hanging at the side but I don't want to open it up too mich since not much playability on that portion is involved.
The Auto Blaster can be fitted on the Holster like that and in the show it really does.
SHIFT UP! AUTO PUNISHER! This is the first step to transform it to Punisher mode. Simply pull the tail of the gun and the Blaster extends.
The Last Step is to push the Red button easily visible above. This will open up the Blaster's front and uncovers a golden chrome internal part. This will result in a super Blaster beam that can destroy enemies and hits harder.
And now, for the penultimate portion, the differences between the Power Rangers Turbo version are:
1) The Power Rangers version did not include the Belt or the Buckle but instead packed the Turbo Blade (Bi Blade in Sentai) together.
2) The stickers on the wheels read Turborangers rather than Carranger in the Power Rangers version
