Armoured Machine Gouram (SIC Kiwami Damashii)


Gouram is an ancient mechanized stag beetle that serves Kamen Rider Kuuga. It most often combines with Kuuga's motorcycle, either the TryChaser 2000 or the BeatChaser 2000. Apparently in the ancient past Gouram served as "horse armour" for the original Kuuga and can provide enough power to drive an motorcycle through a big rig truck.


This set also comes with golden armour attachments to upgrade Gouram to Rising Form. Since I only have the BeatChaser you'll get to see BeatGouram and Rising BeatGouram, though it's not very different on the TryChaser motorcycle. The distinguishing features get covered up by Gouram.














Beetle-mania
Wee Widdle claws...




Lots of details.





Gouram's amadam stones.


Mega-mandibles.



Just hangin' out.





This is a special un-articulated arm to hold Kuuga.




Nice Kuuga symbol.


You can see how Gouram could work with a horse.















Vroom vroom!




Now with more gold!

An attachment for the front...

...there are two little flaps that flip out...

...And some coverings on the rear legs/boosters.








The creators of the show created a working language for the Gurongi.

And a lot of the Linto Tribe hieroglyphs were plot points.


A not-so-seedy underbelly.



Grr...




















The gang's all here.

So close to being complete. Just need Kuuga in his Ultimate Form.






No Fear! No Pain!
