Bouken Driver

[BC1014]

This seems to coincide with the info found on www.sentaitoys.com. The Bouken Driver seems like it will be some kind of DVD/CD game thing.

[TOK-715]

Alright! First person megazord battles!

[Neon Sentry]

I'd kill someone for that!

Hey N-Guy... wanna hang out?

[Dragon Ranger]

I put some info for it in this thread

[SnoopsWarner]

I might pick this up.

[me=sentai]

It might just be the way they edited together the picture. But, i don't know for sure. We'll see when it gets released.

[Myst]

If that can hold the Accellular I'm getting it.

End of Story.

It's a cool little gadget regardless, I think.

Ohhhh, so that's what the thing is on the side there, lol. To hold the accellular. Though, i wonder if it's just there for show or if it does stuff. Probably there for show since I dont see how the accellcular can hook up to the game at all.

[Myst]

Yeah, in the show they clip the Accellular there to call extra little Mecha if they need 'em and gattai them on.

And no, there's like no way. I mean, if the Accellular had ports or something but it doesn't and anyway, it'd be hella expensive @.@.

Yea, i've seen that in the show. Kinda like how they did the SP Licenses in Deka. I love how they do that, in both series.

I just didn't realize that's what that thing was in the pic.

[UncleBoris]

Sadly, I am guessing this won't be playable without a region free dvd player.

Still a cool toy though.

[Gold Samurai]

reminds me of a toy I use to have in downtown china town. It was a interactive racing game and you'd turn the steering left and right to avoid others than use the acclerator on your right to speed up


cool accessory though now people who buy it will want to act along side the boukengers when they form a mech and daibouken haha


tv- master gear in!


guy- master gear in!

[ChungieBoy]

wow, i'm glad i early bird it. the bottom of that better look like the one in the show as well.. i just love the pop up steering wheel, and how it can turn into a carrying case.

also glad that is isn't a cockpit like mentioned earlier..

[GundamExia]

I'd kill someone for that!

Hey N-Guy... wanna hang out?

Hey, hey, hey now, you can't kill N-Guy.......








......I want that pleasure :cool:

Anyways, I'm not so sure on the scale of it, so I dunno if I'd actually go for it.....maybe if it wasn't Japanese I'd get it for my cousin, and then play with it when I go to visit him on vacations :005:

[Transwarp Ranger]

Just one question to whoe anyone who can answer: Will that be release in the US, because it would be so cool to have it here!:007: :023:

How about you give Mystic Force a chance to finish airing here before you ask :023:

[PhantomRanger]

I wonder if that will come to America?

[Arsenal]

As cool as it would be, I doubt it. And if it was, it would probably fit the crappy american Accelullar, and not the Sentai changer.

Ok.:023:

A screen from Thai-Toku/Hyper Hobby (Thanks!)

[ChungieBoy]

the case looks pretty cool, but why didn't they use silver paint instead of that ugly grey. and whats with the red stripes on the side.

and the dual crasher looks terrible in that pic. shows how it is so small

[ChungieBoy]

so this should be coming out next weekend right? anyone else preordered it?

[ChungieBoy]

Bouken driver is here!! here's the pics of the box...

[Zenoff64]

I do have a region free dvd player.......I may pick this up.

[Abaranger]

WOW, that things worth a staggering 58 bouken points. Thats...a visit to your door by the boukengers and then some!

Anyways, it looks like the usual refinments. Accelular holder, control stricks, interestingly shaped sterring wheel :005:

So...who else is planning on buying this?:023:

[ChungieBoy]

hlj should be processing mine by next week

[Dragon Ranger]

I guess this is going to be the next big thing because Bandai is coming out with a part 2 "Play Movie" with Super DaiBouken and the aux mecha.

[ChungieBoy]

i'm getting more and more annoyed with bandai japan these past year. it seems that its best to not buy anything until summer time to see a full selection of the same toys that they are releasing. i mean ppl who want that 2nd dvd will have to get superdaibouken? no thanks

Who said it came with Super Daibouken. It comes by itself, it cost about $16 for it. What I meant was in the first DVD you can only drive as mechas 1-5 and form DaiBouken. The second disk you drive as mechas 6-9 and form Super DaiBouken. I was going to get this but since they are only a selection of DVD players you can set up BoukenDriver on.

[ChungieBoy]

hmm, can bouken driver be connected to a computer instead of a dvd player??

[Abaranger]

EDIT: DragonRanger says it all, ^.^

*look below my post*

[Dragon Ranger]

It doesn't connect by wires, you take the DVD remote and point it at the censor on the Bouken Driver and then it gets set up like a DVD remote. Then you use the Bouken Driver like it's like a game controller. On Bandai's site it list different DVD players it will work with. I don't know if it will work with a region free DVD player though. On Japanese website it states if it doesn't work with your DVD player you can still use like a toy.

[ChungieBoy]

use like a toy, that's not very reassuring for such an expensive role play item.

[Abaranger]

btw, some computers nowadays support dvd remote controls. Chungie, if your comp issomewhat new (2003/2004-NOW) , and the remote HAPPENS to work with Bouken driver on your computer, then your all set...

my pc was made in during the summer of 03.. so i guess that works right? but where would i get a remote control from?

[Dragon Ranger]

I went thorugh Bandai's list again. They just have a list of ones they know that works with it and a list of ones that don't work with it. I don't know if you can use it on a computer, they just list DVD players.

http://img95.imageshack.us/img95/7581/bd5df.png

[Abaranger]

Yeah, I guess Bouken Driver supports mainly dvd players...

I'de try and contact Bandai customer supp...EXCUSE ME

*Bandai JAPAN customer technical support* and see what they say about computers with dvd drives that support remotes....

If Sony or some other company is listed, and chungie has a dvd drive and his comp supports a remote, then theres a way. BTW, the comp has to come with a remote, otherwise I dont think it supports it....ask BestBuy

But you know what, this sounds like TOO much trouble :005: If its meant for a dvd player, then put Bouken Driver on your lap/table like you would with a GF, secure it, and have fun!

[Dragon Ranger]

I think its for DVD players. We will have to wait and see if it works with somebody else who is getting it.

[ChungieBoy]

maybe i should postpose hlj from processing/shipping mine then. i guess its the best way.

Watch Bandai of america will get ahold of this in 07 jack up the price and make it stupid and be a piece of garbage just like all bandai pr toys sense late 2004ish

[ChungieBoy]

doubt ba will release this

[Abaranger]

Well, BA is giving us the bull that they are always expanding their PR line, soo this might be their take on a plug n play Relic Hunters game.


To keep the missing details issue consistent, we might see a few levels missing, maybe a level in black in white....

[solar max ranger]

its out now in Japan, I've seen it on Rinkya going for 4,500 and 4,800 yen

[FirePhoenix]

It would be nice though if BA did not make any changes to except the language of course. If they did that and sold it for either $49.99 or $59.99 I would buy it and play with it. But anyone played the japanese version yet?

[Peter]

Alright! First person megazord battles!

Great. I can just see it now -- the world's in danger, and I'll drive the DaiBouken straight into the nearest building. Probably a hospital or children's orphenage or something.

[Peter]

Okay, so, this is interesting.

There's the Go Go Gattai 05 Go Go Jet --

http://www.hlj.com/product/BAN939839

(the price would indicate that it was a deluxe version)

There's the Go Go Gattai DX Siren Builder --

http://www.hlj.com/product/BAN939865

And there's also the Go Go gattai DX Super Dai Bouken, which I guess is all nine of the zords released together --

http://www.hlj.com/product/BAN941733

So... the jet would be the jet, and I guess Siren Builder is the Sixth Ranger's zord? I need to go check the Boukenger thread ....

[GreenNinja]

Yes, SirenBuilder belongs to BoukenSilver.

[ChungieBoy]

just received a payment request for this from hlj. should i go through with the order or should i just wait. total with sal is coming out to $68 .. eek

That's actually pretty cheap, considering.

I'm also something of a sucker for the rescue-themed vehicles :).

[GrnPsychoDragon]

holy crap!! So that's really a game? Someone needs to buy it and take snap shots and put up a review. That's so kewl. Tempted to buy that. Though I would rather read a review of it first

[flip_dude]

The BoukenDriver can be used with newer Apple computers that make use of the Apple Remote. I'm pretty sure it can be programed for most DVD players. Just push a button on the bottom and it can adjust to the frequency that your DVD Player's Remote uses.

[ChungieBoy]

hmm, so are any reviews of these up from those japanese websites??

i think i should just get this now..
