Would've been feasible had X-Swordsman Saikou only changes from the upper body much like Geiz Revive whom was the closest to a full un-segmented form change. Saikou requires changes on the limbs too and those would require taking apart the the figure and replacing limbs, of which could interfere with the figure's durability. It would make more sense to just make a whole new figure. |

Considering how Saikou's X-Swordsman form is basiccally Saikou Sahdow but with colorful comic panels swapped all over the place, it makes sense why RKF Saikou is so darn expensive (4180 yen).
That being said, with all the parts-swapping Figuarts has been doing recently, I can't help but wonder if the SHF Saikou will come with parts-swapping ability to create X-Swordsman and Saikou Shadow. It's possible that they'll do a Saikou set with Saikou, Saikou's shadow, Wonderful and Powerful. Wonderful and Powerful are relatively small changes on the suit and very feasible for SH Figuarts. X-Swordman would require an entire new mold though, so that wouldn't work. |

Is anyone else kind of confused by Saikou's color scheme? The yellow I understand because of his golden motif, and red and purple are based on the comic book hero, but they could have made the comic book hero any colors, so why red and purple? And why on earth is the WRB lime green and orange!?

I really think there needs to be WAY more Animal Books. Seriously.
Imagine the animals for those Elements which don't have an Animal Book Gekido: Maybe a mole? Hayate: Wolf to complete Kobuta 3 Kyoudai or Chameleon to work with Sarutobi Ninjaden Kurayami: Squall Vulture to counteract Rekka's Storm Eagle or either Bat or Spider Suzune: Either Bat or Pistol Shrimp because they are both related to sound. |

I'm wondering if the SHF will have parts swapping, not the RKF.

and the Biotic Fullbottles, but not the Progrisekeys is even more numerous. For this, I will not include any of the Zetsumerisekeys as those won't count. Here is just the O Medal Animals and if they have a counterpart as a Progrisekey or a Wonder Ride Book. O Medal Animals Taka (Hawk) Kujaku (Peafowl) Condor Kuwagata (Stag Beetle) - Exciting Stag Kamakiri (Praying Mantis) Batta (Grasshopper) - The first O Medal Animal with a Progrisekey version in Rising Hopper Lion - Dynamiting Lion and Lion Senki WRB Tora (Tiger) - Flaming Tiger Cheetah - Rushing Cheetah Sai (Rhinoceros) Gorilla - Punching Kong Zou (Elephant) - Won't count Breaking Mammoth as that is a Mammoth, not an Elephant Shachi (Killer Whale/Orca) - Not Splashing Whale as that is more of a Blue Whale Denkiunagi (Electric Eel) Tako (Octopus) Cobra Kame (Turtle) - Not Tortoise so Genbu Shinwa WRB doesn't count Wani (Crocodile) Sasori (Scorpion) - Sting Scorpion Kani (Crab) Ebi (Shrimp) Same (Shark) - Biting Shark Kujira (Blue Whale) - Now that is Splashing Whale Ookamiuo (Atlantic Wolf-Fish) Shika (Deer) Gazelle Ushi (Cattle) Mukade (Centipede) Hachi (Bee) Ari (Ant) Seiuchi (Walrus) Shirokuma (Polar Bear) - Freezing Bear Penguin - Storming Penguin Yadokari (Hermit Crab) Panda - Scouting Panda Kangaroo - Hopping Kangaroo Meanwhile, here are the Biotic Fullbottles and their Progrisekey/Wonder Ride Book counterparts. Rabbit Gorilla-Punching Kong Taka (Hawk) Panda - Scouting Panda Harinezumi (Hedgehog) - Gatling Hedgehog and Needle Hedgehog WRB Lion - Dynamiting Lion and Lion Senki WRB Dragon - Brave Dragon WRB, Jaaku Dragon WRB, basically all of the Dragon WRBs (Though these aren't Animal Books) Octopus Phoenix - Burning Falcon and Eternal Phoenix WRB (not an Animal Book) Wolf - Shooting Wolf Unicorn Turtle- Again, not Tortoise Kabutomushi (Rhinoceros Beetle) Kuma (Bear)-Not Polar Bear Dog Spider - Trapping Spider Tora (Tiger)- Flaming Tiger Kujira (Whale) - Splashing Whale Shika (Deer) Kirin (Giraffe)-Sparking Giraffe Penguin - Storming Penguin Same (Shark) Bat Hachi (Wasp) Sai (Rhinoceros) Lost Bottles Spider- Trapping Spider Cobra Kuwagata (Stag Beetle) - Exciting Stag Fukurou (Owl) Shimauma (Zebra) Crocodile Crack Scorpion - Sting Scorpion This shows that they had a HUGE List of Animals due to the O Medals and the Biotic Fullbottles. But they didn't use most of these Animals. And this shows that, oddly enough, even though there was a Taka O Medal and a Taka Fullbottle, there was no Taka/Hawk Progrisekey. The Progrisekey originals for those animals which weren't given O Medals or Biotic Fullbottles are Flying Falcon, Amazing Caucasus, Lightning Hornet, Amazing Hercules, Crushing Buffalo, Fighting Jackal, and Invading Horseshoe Crab. The only Wonder Ride Book Original Animal that wasn't given any of the previous gimmicks was Storm Eagle. So, the list of real birds which have inspired a Collectable Gimmick at least somewhere in Kamen Rider is Hawk, Peafowl, Condor, Penguin, Owl, Falcon, and now Eagle. Sorry for listing off ALL Animals from Collectable Gimmicks in the past. To have a TL;DR, it's just that there are SO MANY animals used in the Kamen Rider Series with all of these Collectable Gimmicks that NOT using an animal which has inspired a Collectable Gimmick in the past. So, yeah. |

11 main swords and few main base books probably appears in silhouette . I guess southern base use generate man made sword perhaps not part of main ones Judging there's 7 of them. It looks like primitive drgaon can take control blades or anyone book as well. Reika and three bad along with desast is still generic blueprint character profile with not a lot of materials to go for. Every epsiode is the same for them.

I guess. Except for Storm Eagle. There might have been "Dynamiting Lion" as a counterpart to Lion Senki and "Gatling Hedgehog" as a counterpart to Needle Hedgehog, but there was no *verb*ing Eagle Progrisekey. And Flying Falcon doesn't count as it was based upon a falcon and not an eagle. And anyways, looking at the animals I thought up for each of them, the ones with Progrisekeys based upon the animals I listed off are Wolf (Shooting Wolf) and Spider (Trapping Spider). If you were to even consider the Zetsumerisekeys, the only one which was given that treatment was Bat (Onycho Zetsumerisekey). There was no Mole, there wasn't a Vulture, there wasn't a Chameleon, there wasn't truly a Bat, and there wasn't a Pistol Shrimp. There was only the Wolf, the Spider, the Lion, and the Hedgehog. And anyways, look back at previous toylines with gimmicks based upon Animals (OOO and Build). It isn't exactly like they don't use Animals. If you were to compare the list of Animals used in the Progrisekeys to the Animals used in the O Medals and the Biotic Fullbottles, you would find a lot of overlap. In fact, the amount of animals used in the O Medals
and the Biotic Fullbottles, but not the Progrisekeys is even more numerous. For this, I will not include any of the Zetsumerisekeys as those won't count. Here is just the O Medal Animals and if they have a counterpart as a Progrisekey or a Wonder Ride Book.
