The most monstrous rider of all is here! S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Shin!
**Post #2 contains a few bonus images. Shin of course dates all the way back to 1992. That was the year the film Shin Kamen Rider: Prologue was released. This film was the very definition of a dark, grim, gritty reboot for the beloved Kamen Rider franchise. As the "Prologue" in the title would imply, this film was originally meant to set up a new ongoing rider TV series. However despite the films incredible practical & special effects, it lacked quite a bit in it's plot execution. The wildly different way in which it presented the rider concept put off too many old school fans while simultaneously frightening new child fans of the time. SO Shin has mostly been seen in team-up rider films since the Decade era, but that's about all. S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Shin is a fairly straightforward release. Shin was a Tamashii Web Exclusive figure released just this past month. Of course Shin is one of the very few riders never seen to have ridden a bike in his rider form. Nor does he have any trademark weapons or special attacks that could warrant accessories or effect parts. So even though this is a pretty bare bones release it makes sense. Shin includes 2 alternate versions of his head, each with his mouth splayed open to differing degrees. This helps replicate his various monstrous poses as he tore through the various other Cyborg Soldiers in his solo film. He hasn't really been seen to open his jaws quite in that way in his more recent appearances however. Shin also includes two more sets of hands for you to display him in various poses ready to take other figures in your collection down. Seeing as there's a lack of accessories Shin really shines in the paint applications department. This bad boy is lavishly painted. He's absolutely monstrous and gorgeous. Down to the last application this guy is a near perfect representation of his on screen counterpart. He also has some really great deep red compound eyes. Unfortunately it's quite hard to capture the shine of his eyes without absolutely perfect lighting. Luckily he also has quite flexible antennae on all 3 of his heads so the chances of breaking them while swapping them out, are quite slim. S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Shin might seem like a bare release. In fact he is, though it's appropriate. If you're a fan of his film (like myself) or his incredibly awesome design (again like me:)) then be sure to pick this fantastic figure up! |

Featuring Shin Zangetsu :lol |
Ha. Shin Shin Zangetsu.

Amazing gallery bro. Truly amazing. Love it!
|
It looks so awesome, great gallery. =)
|
He really is a beautiful-looking figure from a paint and sculpt standpoint. Glad that Shin's getting love little by little as time goes on, from Rider Switches, Rings and Lockseeds to this and his S.I.C. release.

Hmm...Perhaps a blood splatter effect part could be given? I dunno :lol
I need to watch Shin. I downloaded it ages ago but never got around to it. Anyway, it's a nice looking figure. The paint really pops and it's actually surprisingly bright for a dark character (It might actually be too bright. His green looks more fitted to ZO or J). I particularly liked the multiple heads, rather than having a functioning jaw on one head and just giving you 3 options. But you missed one crucial picture. http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lo...u0hqo1_500.png You have a Stronger, Amazon, Ichigou, and Riderman, and I'm assuming a DCD and Kuuga, right? :p |
Shin Melon Energy arms is the best :lol
|
God this guy looks so awesome! I can't wait to get one...eventually...someday.
|
Gotta say this is one figure that really knows how to hide it's joints.
Thanks for the gallery. :) |
