GoGo Dino is a long-running South Korean animated preschool show that first aired in 2016. The character designs look similar to Super Wings, another South Korean import, but instead of aircraft, they are all cutesy robot dinosaurs (see the box side below). I regularly dive into Korean pop culture to check out the toys, so I've been aware of the property for almost ten years, but I wasn't interested until I saw this new toyline. The newest iteration of the show has the five main robo-dinos transform into cool humanoid mecha. Two things to know: the popularity of this show apparently exploded in China and production of the shows seems to have moved there. The show logo on the packaging translates to "Bang Bang Dragon Adventure Pioneer 2", but who knows what the title will be when it is finally adapted for English audiences. The mecha each has an additional elemental theme, so Viki is a Brachiosaurus as well as "Water" alongside teammates Thunder, Hurricane, Fire, etc. Let's check out Viki below!
Viki's only accessories are two yellow guns with black handles.
I didn't get a screengrab of it, but there's also a little pink dolphin pilot in her mecha chest
...I don't understand the cartoon frankly.
This is Viki's Super Viki mode. Her standard mode is similar, but a cuter-looking Pixar-esque mechanical Brachiosaur with a bow on her head.
Time for some Group and Comparison Pics!
Here is Viki with another recent pink lady, the Miniforce LucyBot.
Cheers!
