Have you been keeping up with the Chinese pseudo-sentai Giant Savers (Jushen ZhanJiDui)? If you have then you know this show has actually been in production since roughly this time in 2010! So far there’s only been a handful of promo videos for it and some grainy looks at the mecha.
Well today, courtesy of Jefusions’ facebook page, we’ve been given our first look at the toy of the Giant Savers main mecha, Giant Braver! This single in box shot doesn’t give us a lot to go on but it certainly looks like it could be a great toy.
In addition to this a recent Taobao auction also gives us our first look at the 2 other mecha from the series. Assault Saver and Crack Saver!
