But hey, opens the door for Lightning Hornet and pretty much confirms Lone Wolf is coming up, so that's something I guess. Quote:
I wouldn't hold it against them though, it's ultimately something that’s hard to do, redoing the entire figure from scratch just because of body proportions from the suit actor when you have a mold you could reuse instead doesn't sound financially feasible. |

Also, about 001. I believe the arms are reused, but everything from the waist done is new. The crotch is completely different, the knee pads are placed on the thigh joint instead of knee joint. |

Not that I mind too much because accurate scale isn’t that important to me, it's just very noticeable. |

Ironically, placing the kneepad on the thighs instead of the knee joint makes it more suit-accurate when posing the figure.

Oh, didn't even notice that the suit is half the same as lightning hornet. Would definitely take Lightning Hornet over this one but hopefully that gives more hope to a future release.

Honestly, if I had more money I'd probably go for this -- her scenes in the movie made me like Yaiba a lot more and this was a shining moment for her. I've had to give up on SHFs unfortunately between my own money and just how frankly stressful they are to get in the first place, but I'm definitely glad this one's getting made

I wonder if the Tamashii team decided to put this into production well before anyone had seen the movie. It happens sometimes with the So-Do team, they only have concept art to work off from and only get to see that actual media when it airs/premieres.
In any case, I dug up Vulcan and Ichigata for comparison. Honestly, any dissimilarities in proportions are probably very minor for anyone to really care. So yea, bring on Lone Wolf |

Even with Justice Serval getting made, I'd still be super surprised if they made Lightning Hornet since they seem to have given up on making those beginning alternate forms. I'd be really happy if they did tho, means I wouldn't have to make a custom one lol

I think it'll be a NinNinComic situation and we could get Lightning Hornet randomly in like 2-3 years.

I don't know if Zero-One has the kind of staying power Build does though...
