Argo Ship (キュータマ合体ギガントホウオー, Kyūtama Gattai Giganto Hōō, Nine Ball Combination Giant Phoenix) is the Giant Robo for Houou Soldier in Uchu Sentai Kyuranger.

Overview

Gigant Houou (ギガントホウオー, Giganto Hōō, Giant Phoenix) is the combination of Houou Voyager and Houou Station.

Gigant Houou is able to fly and perform aerial attacks.

Gigant Houou is armed with the Gigant Blades (ギガントブレード, Giganto Burēdo).

Gigant Houou has three finishers:

• Gigant Houou Blazing (ギガントホウオーブレイジング, Giganto Hōō Bureijingu, Giant Phoenix Blazing): Gigant Houou performs a double fire slash attack with the Gigant Blades.
• Gigant Fire Break (ギガントファイヤーブレイク, Giganto Faiyā Bureiku, Giant Fire Break): Gigant Houou separates from its components, then Houou Station traps the opponent for Houou Voyager to ram at the opponent. During the finisher, Houou Voyager and Houou Station combine into Gigant Houou again. Gigant HOuou can perform this attack without separating from its components.
• Triple Meteor Break (トリプルメテオブレイク, Toripuru Meteo Bureiku): Gigant Houou delivers a powerful blast attack alongside either 01*02*07*09*11 KyurenOh, 03*05*10 RyuTeiOh, Tenbin Voyager and Washi Voyager or *01*04*05*07*09 KyurenOh and 02*10*11 RyuTeiOh.

Notes

• Gigant Houou is similar in design to Plezu-Oh from Zyuden Sentai Kyoryuger.
• Design and concept-wise Kyutamajin is similar to ToQ Rainbow from Ressha Sentai ToQger.
• The Argo transforms into the parts of this mecha.
• Its suit actor is Masato Tsutamune, with Keizo Yabe acting as his substitute.
• Kamen Rider Build PhoenixRobo Form shares the same motif with Gigant Houou.
• Theoretically, Gigant Houou's legs could be replaced by any voyager in leg mode (though with the omissions of the Kyutama).
