Yeah... sad isn't it. As long as they stop doing those awesome "first release only" accessories then I wouldn't mind waiting for re-releases.
dammit! I dont even remotely want booster I think he looks like some Chinese knockoff youd find in a dollar store maybe if I can get an Accel someone will sell me the new head seperate from booster
So with these new revolutions, what does everyone plan on buying? G-Den-O i'll be grabbing for sure, along with Ankh and maybe Ryuki. I'm quite on the fence about Accel Booster and Uva...I was never a fan of the piss yellow accel, but I quite like the armour he's wearing...and I wouldn't mind filling out the W Shelf either.
We have a form of him at least, and Emperor was the main form for half of the show anyway. There are a lot of Den-O Figuarts, but none of them are of the man himself.
Sigh... I'm super excited, but depressed at the same time. What happened to the days when we'd get like 3/4 figures a month tops? Now it's like 3/4 exclusives a month PLUS retail. EDIT: I hope that Accel Booster mode means no need for Accel Banana to come out ever...
Give it time. I'm sure we'll see info on him soon enough Well, if Accel Signal Yellow still gets made, it'll be exclusive so that hurts nobody. But I admit it would be visually redundant to have both. As for releases that I want of this batch: ShaUTa, Ryuki, TaJaDor effect parts, and Uva are big wants. Maybes are Accel Booster, stand alone Ankh, and G Den-O.
I'm really glad I skipped the Figma Ryuki now. Theres just waaaay to many good things coming out this year.
I wasn't aware the old R&M toys had those features. Guess 2001 never goes out of style. I was on the fence about Figma when they got the rights to Dragon Knight. I knew they had a solid reputation for anime characters and a friend who collected the K-On set showed me the level of detail Figma affords each figure. I just wasn't sure if they give a Kamen Rider the same love. The whole "Display compatibility" gripe is another mental barrier I had. Figma Ryuki stands a couple of milimeters above the Figuarts. Won't bother most collectors I'm sure but it does bother me, especially at the price point Figma figures go for.
You can even see it in the show if you looked close enough. Knight would use his Sword Vent, Dark Wing would fly in and drop his tail which was the lance.
Hmmm...I bought the Figma Dragon Knight (Unfortunately, as now I need to go to the trouble of selling him off, hah) and he's actually a tad bit shorter than all my Figuarts. And his shortness does bother me a bit, actually.
Well that settles it: Bandai needs to put out the Big 4 in Ryuki ASAP. There are some which don't seem cohesive with the Mirror Monsters though. Ouja's Sword Vent looks more like a unicorn horn (unless its one Venosnaker's fangs) and unless we see some awe-inspiring parts-forming I doubt you can get that signature cannon Zolda uses in most of the episodes. Still...BIG 4! And Femme and RyuGa as exclusives! SURVIVE! Shorter eh? Well that would be nice if we had accurate scale representations but everyone knows Riders come in standard heights.
At least on the old R&M/ Souchaku Henshin toys, Ohja's Sword Vent is Venosnaker's tail. Actually, Venosnaker has the exact same body as Dragredder, and both Ryuki and Ohja's swords plug into the same part on the shared body. I believe all that is show accurate as well. And I could be wrong, but I think Magnugiga's arms make up Zolda's cannon (Don't remember what that "Vent" is called...), and I think the R&M toy was able to do it.
Yeah. Magnugiga's arms make up Shoot Vent (The first one), the cannons in his legs make up the 2nd Shoot Vent, and his chest makes up Guard Vent.
I just acquired Agito Trinity form for around 60-70 dollars. I'm very excited, hopefully by the end of this year I will have my three favorite Riders!! Otoya, Agito, and Amazon! One question though is Kamen Rider Saga a confirmed future figuart? He is a factor in which Rider I will buy for Otoya (Dark Kiva or IXA). I'm leaning towards just saying IXA will be my Otoya and hoping for a figuart release of Saga and normal Kiva. Does anyone have any opinions on IXA and Dark Kiva? Also does anyone know where I can watch Kamen Rider online? I used to watch them on Veoh and Youtube, but I can't find them anymore. I was trying to get into watch Black RX, but now I'm just looking for any series.
