    SO IT IS
    [​IMG]

    This is so bittersweet since SIC is apparently so much bigger than Figuarts D: But hey, awesome - I've been waiting for a Stronger that looked more modernized like The First/Next film designs. This is looking to be pretty darn close to what I was hoping for.

    Here's hoping for Kiwami Tamashii to make Stronger so I can have a tall burly man in my Motion Revive set. They can have an arm wrestling contest.

    Well if this news is accurate (the image seems to be of the older SIC Hero Saga model), I hope and pray that there will be some appearance of Tackle along with him. Hopefully the years of waiting and hoping don't end in utter disappointment.

    Meanwhile, due to some PayPal issues I'm going to be a bit delayed in buying some new merch. So I thought I'd use these few days to ask about the items I am considering buying; Does anyone here have Souchaku Henshin Amazon or Stronger? I'm currently deciding between the two.

    I can tell from pictures that Stronger looks more fitting of the bulky chest, though I kind of want Amazon since he's a Showa Rider I actually have more interest in right now. However, before deciding between the two, I must also ask how big these older SH figures are. I've been told they changed the height later on which helped them fit in with SH Figuarts. How much of a difference was there before? Any comparison pictures of ANY of the older SH figures?

    older sh figures are a good half-head shorter and much stumpier than shf figures - almost like 'kid' versions if they're displayed next to each other.

    Wow, SIC Stronger actually manages to make the helmet not look totally derpy. Nice.

    I also noticed the eye lenses are blue instead of their usual yellow-ish green. Odd coloring choice, though for all I know they all have changes like that.

    I also noticed he seems to not have any noticeable joints, so... statue? In that case I'm out. D: but he still looks great. If I had lots of cash to throw around I might buy one for decoration (what else CAN you do with a statue?)

    Yeah, if it IS a statue; not for me. But if it's a figure then he'll be all mine :p

    didnt see this posted

    pretty much proves the point of the black joint of Cyclone Joker, in the fact that it was cast in black along with everything else but probably couldnt be painted

    supposedly the stands say
    Decade: This May Tickle A Bit
    Cyclone/Cyclone: Lets Work Together Decade!
    Joker/Joker: Final Form Ride W

    Oh my god at the Double Figuarts. My wallet is going to hate me. Will I ever be satisfied with just Cyclone Joker, Heat Metal and Luna Trigger? :(

    Theres mixed opinions. Some good. Some bad. I have only tried to order from them once. But they didnt have it in stock and didnt tell me till I e-mailed them. I havent been back since.
