Oh, and this Chronicle Gaim announcement kinda screws up my predictions already, haha! I guess I should have figured they'd do all the energy riders as one set, but I figured Duke would make it into retail considering his greater prominence and how his merch has been treated in the past.
Regardless; my new prediction for Wave 3 then is Kiwami, Kurokage, Gridon and Bravo. The latter two are suddenly getting more attention, the final form always gets to be in a retail wave, and despite Knuckle being way more important and popular than Kurokage, I believe they'd want to make Kurokage retail for troopbuilding. I guess Premium Bandai Wave 2 is gonna have Knuckle leading the charge with some extra arms!

Me after all the reveals:
The Good: More Blade stuff. Get to complete the core Riders (and the rare spider Rider). Wasn't expecting Jokers. Very nice and looking forward to it. I like Dangerous Zombie has his posing hands. The Energy Riders look amazing. Sculpted soda eyes! The Bad: 4 Gemns in a single wave. It's just too much. Hoping they're only 1 per case each so Blade fans have an easier time getting their figures. The Frustrating: The thing I'd like to be the most excited for is Premium Bandai. I'm so very tired of this. Last edited by Blade Raider; 10-25-2020 at 12:19 PM.. |

I don't know, I'm not sure those are the two options we'd be getting for this SHODO wave? If we didn't get four different Genms, we'd probably just be getting duplicates of two different Genms. I'm not sure we'd get a Brave if they dropped one of the Dangerous Zombies.

I'm fine with two Genms, but four is super over the top especially when the Dangerous Zombies are just a belt swap. Just include alternate parts! Even if you're not gonna do more Ex-Aid Riders you could have at least used this to include Leangle's bike. I don't wanna complain too much because Dangerous Zombie looks beautiful and the fact that Joker is existing at all is phenomenal, never mind how gorgeous the figure looks! But this wave had to go and have some... interesting decisions.
That said, previous waves have only had 5 figures, right? Maybe the only reason we have 7 figures in this one is because there's so few differences between 2/0 and X/X-0.

I know it wasn't for certain if they got dropped. I still hope they redo all of the other riders, at least in their base level 2 forms. For some reason I just really like Ex-Aid. If he ever gets a CSM, I'll be bankrupt.

A while ago, they mentioned they'd explicitly stopped doing chase figures, which is what I'd guarantee Genm Level 0 and X-0 would have been, like, a year ago. Removing them wouldn't get us new Riders, it would just bump the numbers in the wave down from 7 to 5.

All of Ex-Aid's riders are certainly antagonistic enough to fit SHODO-O...
Though, hm, thinking about it; I wonder who else would fit the line? - Agito... is done, aside from a few forms! Unless they think Exceed Gills would fit the line enough? - Literally anyone from Ryuki. How has Zolda not happened yet - Psyga and Orga would fit well; we even got the Riotrooper recently - Garren Jack and the Blade movie riders - Once again, literally anyone from Kabuto. Well, Gatack wouldn't work; but the other three riders and the movie ones would - Alright Showa's kind of my blind spot, but are any of the villains not covered popular enough? I think Great Leader, Apollo Geist, General Jark and Shadow Moon kinda covers all the big ones. Aside from the ACTUAL big one but he's, uh, too big. Ambassador Hell, perhaps? Igadevil? General Shadow?

What size weapons or pegs fit in the weapon-holding hands for SO-DO figures? 3mm? 5mm? Thinking of looking into extra weapons for customs.
