Now let us cite some differences and similarities between U.S.'s Transmax Megazord and Japan's Candy Toys. The above pics are from Power Rangers Operation Overdrive or the Super Sentai Boukenger Series.
This is the first time that Bandai America released a mini version of their Megazords. They called it Transmax Vehicles. They are transformable to vehicles and can also form Megazord. It has different sets. I only got 2 sets, Set B and Set C so I have the nos. 2,3,6,7,8,9 and 10 vehicles.
Let's start:
SIZE
As you can see in the picture the CT version is a little bigger to the Transmax version. But somehow the CT is more consistent when it comes to the size because the Transmax Vehicles have different scales sometimes it is bigger and sometimes smaller than CT. When you combine them you will see that the body of transmax is big and the legs are too short making your megazord looks awkward.
- Winner: Candy Toy Version
DETAILS
What is good with the Transmax is that they used paints and they have shiny paints if necessary. Paints can last more than the stickers of CT. BUT CT is more detailed when you apply the stickers provided. It has even the number of the zord.
PLAYABILITY
For the playability factor, Transmax is ready for playing after your purchased. But the CT version needs your patience for the assemble of each zords then after the assemble, you still need to properly and carefully apply the stickers. In Transmax you can do some Megazords that are not in the show, just mix and combine them like LEGO.
ARTICULATIONFor the articulation, I am very sure that CT won this aspect because the CT version is same as the DX version and sometimes even better articulation than the original. Transmax version is like a LEGO; it has pegs, you need to detach each part and connect again to form into a Megazord or vice versa and even in posing them.
- Winner: Candy Toy Version
PRICE
The CT is a little expensive compared to the Transmax because in this set; Transmax requires only 2 sets which consist of 7 zords while in CT you need to buy 5 boxes which roughly costs $4 (P210.00) each, but you will get a nice and more accurate toys.
FINAL SCORE
Transmax - 1 Candy Toy - 2
Draw - 2
Final Verdict
You want a toy that has lots of ways to play BUT not detailed
or
You want a toy that is exactly a mini version of the original toy BUT a litte pricey
