I used to collect the Zords... had heaps of em but ended up getting rid of em all.
Really liked the Zords but hated the show.
Liked the fact that they were mostly big chunky combiner bots or bases and they displayed really well if you put em all together.
The Japanese versions were always of better quality and had heaps of diecast although price-wise, there wasn't much of a diff (not including shipping that is).
Always felt ripped off buying the US versions due to the quality and price
