He's much larger than his predecessor, but that didn't save him from defeat. His upgrades were extensive, including a red cluster light ray from his eye, guided razor disks launched from his chest, and wicked scythe fore claws with two grappling hook launchers on each arm. For his refit after his initial defeat, the scythes and hook launchers were replaced with dual double chainsaws. Reviews: Toho Kingdom Cool Ass Cinema Million Monkey Theater
