You know the drill by now right? Well of course! It’s Power Rangers Wild Force month at Tokunation! And as we begin to round out our little series of “Gaolleries” we take a look at a very special release from Hyakuju Sentai Gaoranger!
DX Black Gao King is a special repaint of the standard Gao King set done up in, you guessed it, black/silver, packed in a black/white version of the normal Gao King box. The set has a nice sleek uniform color scheme that’s very pleasing to the eye. Though if you already have a normal Gao King this may not be a set you’d want to double up with. The Black Gao Elephant released with the TRU Gao Knight set[/URL] is also a perfect addition to this set allowing you to make a full on Black Gao King Sword & Shield!
Of course this set is part of a long long tradition of black repaints not only for sentai, but for mecha shows in general. The first black edition sentai robo being the Black Daizyujin later altered for release in the US as the Black MMPR Megazord.

I never was a fan of repainting toys to be black because "Hey it's black, it's cool!" but I can't deny this looks spiffy. The random bits of gloss grey stand out though, maybe they should've went with a matte or metallic finish.
So damned menacing.. I absolutely love it!
I like how they gave all the zords red eyes so they'd look more evil
Definitely one of the better black decos out there. very nice
Dang that looks awesome, been better had they made GaoKings eyes Red to match the animals.
Too monochromatic for me. It really needs SOME punch of colour.
Wow this series is repaint-tastic how many origional molds for animals are there? like 10 out of the 20 something mecha?
What two Gaolleries are left?
EDIT: Also, wasn't a panther or jaguar on the master list?
