A company named Titan Power has stepped to the plate seemingly out of no where taking a Voltron statue design by Kwang Jun Park, and gave it extreme articulation and LED gimmicks in their TP-01 King of Beasts. It’s a non-transforming Voltron homage with a big focus on build and engineering. This has its flaws in areas that will be broken down below but it’s honestly a great and solid piece that I think is going to make a whole lot of purchasers extremely happy. Check out the video above as well as my thoughts and gallery below and please leave a comment below to let me know what you think as well!
Presentation: The box is a thick cardboard one and the artwork is cool featuring pictures of the King of Beasts in an outer space motif. Inside is the King of Beasts Figure secured in a styrofoam shell with separate spaces for the swords, card/instructions, and Spinning Blade (mine came missing this piece.) Even outside of the missing Spinning Blade the space for the swords is pretty wide and the swords were just in their loose to rattle around and potentially break. Thankfully they were unharmed but that’s not good packaging. At least the area for the figure itself was made-to-sized and it fit very snuggly inside with plastic wrapping around it for protection. Overall their packaging on this one could use some work in terms of making sure the contents are complete and safe.
Build: This is a nice, heavy diecast piece with a hefty diecast frame and a mixture of plastic and diecast throughout the “shell” which makes up the aesthetic of it. It does have LEDs for the head, hands, and feet all of which are controlled by 5 separate buttons and battery packs. It’s extremely well put together but the battery packs should have been made more accessible and easier to change the batteries on once you do get to them. It’s a big oversight on their end and it really takes away from how outstanding the rest of this is put together.
The paint apps and finish are well done and I didn’t really see any areas for concern with things like paint rub from regular play/posing.
Accessories: Here’s a list of the accessories for the Titan Power King of Beasts;
One (1) Blazing Sword
One (1) Spinning Blade (Shield) and a handle which it attaches to for holding
Two (2) daggers which combine to form a dual-edged sword.
One (1) Set of attachment pieces to mount the Blazing Sword and Spinning Blade onto its back.
Outside of wishing that the handle for the spinning blade pegged inside of the green lion’s mouth more snuggly, everything looks and holds really well, especially since they’re being held inside of the “hands” by friction. The Blazing Sword is especially great due to its size and shape which flares outward towards the top and compliments the more exaggerated, super-robot styled proportions of the bot itself.
Articulation: The articulation points are pretty standard for the Hot Toys diecast armors with a nice amount of range for movement. The amount of forward and back swing that he can get in his abdominal area when extended is particularly impressive.
Overall Score: 7.0/10 – As stated in the video review, the Titan Power TP-01 King of Beasts is a very unapologetic “toy” even though it has a very high end size, stylization and build. At 12″ it’s one of the bigger diecast Super Robot products your going to get (especially at this price range,) but the articulation and build quality of it will have you messing about and putting it and different poses time after time. In fact, I haven’t even put mine in a shelf for the week I’ve had it due to wanting to pose it so often. Basically it’ll be the best “desk bot” you’ve ever owned. Where I do have to knock it is the basically theft of Kwan Jun Park’s original take on Voltron and how inaccessible the batteries can be (particularly the ones in the feet) for the sake of replacement or even taking them out completely to avoid corrosion. Seemingly the entire first run of these comes with the hands (green and red lion heads) installed upside down taking away its ability to move the hands inwards and outwards (fix video above.)
These factors especially takes it down a few notches because it’s so short-sighted and timestaking to correct. There’s also the packaging issue which drags the high-end quality of the product itself down with such a third-rate presentation. It’s crazy that this product really shows a lot of what’s missing in the Soul of Chogokin GX-71 Golion while highlighting what it as a product and Bandai as a company do well at the same time.
To summarize the above score; it’s an easy 8-8.5/10 product with a fantastic look and general design dragged by shitty presentation/packaging and battery compartments that you truly feel like you may break or damage just trying to change or remove. Things like that and the general knowledge that it’s a stolen stylization really put a negative aire over it when they all start adding up.
