Kaitou Gattai LupinKaiser (快盗合体ルパンカイザー Kaitō Gattai RupanKaizā, Phantom Thief Combination LupinKaiser) is the main Giant Robo of the Lupinrangers.
Overview[]
LupinKaiser can use Blue Dial Fighter's Gatling gun and Yellow Dial Fighter's saw, even fire energy saw blades from the latter. It can also fly short distances, TV STORY-Number 26: The Hidden Auction and it is rather agile.
LupinKaiser's finisher is the GoodStriker: Rapid-Fire Down You Go Shot (グッドストライカー連射 倒れちまえショット Guddo Sutoraikā: Rensha Taorechimae Shotto); LupinKaiser summons a giant energy version of the VS Changer and performs a series of powerful blasts at the enemy.
In LupinKaiser combinations, GoodStriker performs all the announcements (form changes, finishers).

History[]
Upon witnessing the apparent deaths of their loved ones at the hands of an alleged Gangler, each of the Lupinrangers were approached by a mysterious figure, an associate of Arsène Lupin, and tasked to use the Dial Fighters and VS Changers to find the other pieces of the Lupin Collection. Once the task is completed, the Lupinrangers have a chance to restore their lost loved ones. TV STORY-Number 2: International Police, Chase After Them
Enlarging their Dial Fighters, the Lupinrangers successfully eluded the Trigger Machines of the Patrangers. Later, when granted the power of GoodStriker, the Dial Fighters formed the Kaitou Gattai LupinKaiser for the first time, allowing them to destroy the giant Garatt Nargo. TV STORY-Number 2: International Police, Chase After Them
TV STORY-Number 4: Unacceptable Relationship
When the Gangler remnant Ganima Noshiagalda suddenly advanced into Status Quintuple Gold during a battle with the Ryusoulgers, the eight Dial Fighters in the Lupinrangers’ possession were no longer sufficient to open all five safes simultaneously. To overcome this, Noël infused RyuSouls with power from the first three Dial Fighters, allowing Koh, Melto, and Asuna to transform into doppelgängers of the three Lupinrangers equipped with their own copies of said Dial Fighters, creating enough Dial Fighters for five rangers to open Ganima’s safes.

Dial Fighters[]
The Dial Fighters (ダイヤルファイター Daiyaru Faitā) are a type of VS Vehicle. They are the collectibles and Mecha of the Lupinrangers.
They are parts of the Lupin Collection that were given to the Lupinrangers to battle the Interdimensional Crime Group Gangler. They have multiple uses depending on the fighter, such as transforming a civilian (in this case a thief) into a Lupinranger, activate a Kaitou Boost (快盗ブースト Kaitō Būsuto), and enlarging for battle and Mecha Gattais. All these functions are achieved with a VS Changer. They can also temporarily go on their own to distract foes by attacking them.
A unique function of the Dial Fighters is that they can automatically decode and unlock the safes on Gangler Monsters (they can only do 3 digits at a time, so two are required for Status Golds), and possibly other forms of locks as well, as demonstrated when Toma used his on an electronically-locked door in the first episode and again on a key-locked door in TV STORY-Number 23: Status: Gold.

Its code is 0-1-0.
