Because of what I wanted this toy to do, it’s actually better than the Japanese original. Its legs are spread into an A-stance and it’s stylized specifically with the robo in mind. This does make the ox cart suffer greatly, but it honestly is the mode least likely to be displayed by anyone outside of a more hardcore MakoxTakeru shipper than even I. The Gigazord looks a little weird with separated foot rests, as opposed to a solid base beneath the throne, but not enough to make it significantly different in terms of quality of execution compared to Samurai Ha-Oh. Takeru and Jayden need a mecha to call their own. This is unquestionably it.
Differences between the various versions can be found below the cut.

Ranger Wiki tells me that the discs included here are the Bull Disc and the Ultimate Disc. The same ones as with Mougyuu Dai-Oh.
The Eastern releases of Mougyuu Dai-Oh are essentially the same (compared to one another) and delivered a complete brick of a figure, unlike this piece. The ox cart and throne may be perfect on those, but the robo is abysmal in comparison to Bandai of America’s. The robo is the crux of the entire decision and will dictate which you’ll want. Or, it’ll make you want both.
Again, the Gigazord and Samurai Ha-Oh aren’t the same, but the execution is on par with one another, and it really all depends on your finances and tolerance for small differences.
Mougyuu Dai-Oh has a motor to move himself and Samurai Ha-Oh, but I clearly don’t factor it heavily into my thoughts on the piece. It almost dropped my Ha-Oh off a table once. No thank you.
