Forms after this are okay but the color additions come out of nowhere. What is the in-world explanation why Shining Assault Hopper is Blue? Why Zero Two is Red? In general, I like when suit upgrades follow the design of the prior suit. Or at least when new colors have explanations.

I have to agree with this. It also has the best looking progrise key.

In general, I like when suit upgrades follow the design of the prior suit. Or at least when new colors have explanations. Zero Two has red because it's a reference to Nigou and, along with the silver, is built up from the presence of the reds and silvers found in the original Rising Hopper suit. Anyway, the 7K yen price tag is still weird. Thouser was around 6K Yen and had more stuff than MCH and was more "complex" in his paint scheme. Also, SHF_Upgrade is doing a upgrade set to turn Rising Hopper into Flying Falcon. Would be cool to see the rest and a possible set for Ark-One/Zero. Maybe Punching Kong Vulcan too?

MCH and Shining Hopper are Aruto's best forms IMO. Shining was a perfect upgrade to Zero-One with the great computing-effects, Metal Cluster has the amazing nanobot grasshoppers.
It's just a shame they clipped its wings with that boring sword, after that thing came around it was just another form that swings a sword around. |

That is AMAZING, holy shit — well beyond anything they’ve done so far. I wonder how this is even going to work; it’s a lot of parts to swap!

it's practically a brand new figure at that point! the legs, chest, shoulder and head are replaced. I will hold off on this form though. Now if they release the Tiger or ice bear form...

It’s tempting me to get a Rising Hopper even though I wasn’t going to bother just because Flying Falcon is that cool a form. But I doubt I’d actually be able to put it together...

You get another chance to buy Zero-One! This time a little bit different. Realizing Hopper version with new stand, progrise key, and blue gradients. 3,300 Yen, exclusive to the Tamashii Nations 2020 event. Last edited by TheRaizin; 10-16-2020 at 02:41 AM.. |

Meh, easy pass for me. Unless it becomes cheaper on the aftermarket but Tamashii exclusives don't often do that.

I’ve been trying to work this out for a bit now; does anyone know what SHF upgrade’s Build stickers are supposed to be for? They don’t give any details and it’s hard to tell just looking at them. The one that looks like Sparkling’s “mouth” especially confuses me.
