Cheapest one Amazon has at the moment is Raia. EDIT: The second cheapest is Ryuki Survive.

Okay, so I got Alternative Zero last night, and I want to share a few thoughts.
As you may know, I consider the Ryuki Figuarts to be the best ones there are, so i was excited to get another one, in the form of Alternative Zero. W.T.F.? Alternative Zero is a completely different (all new?) body from the previous Ryuki Figuarts. The feet are different, not just plastic (booo!), but different sculpt, the hands are different (the card holding hand even - it reminds me a lot more of Den-O's pass-holding hand than the Ryuki card holding hands). If there is ANY reuse between Alternative Zero and Ryuki, it is so minimal as to be irrelevant. The joints feel plenty solid, the articulation doesn't seem crippled anywhere, it seems like a totally excellent Figuarts - despite the plastic feet, they're still nice and large, they seem the same size as the Ryuki feet, not miniscule things like the Sentai Figuarts have, so I don't foresee any balance issues, but it's just totally weird that it's so very much NOT a Ryuki Figuarts, despite having the correct style of packaging and having cards, which also look almost nothing like Advent cards. WHAT IS THIS THING? Abyss was from a completely different series, and yet it is very much a Ryuki Figuarts, but Alternative Zero, he has more in common with SHF Blade than with SHF Ryuki. I really don't get it. Somebody explain it to me. Don't get me wrong, it's a great figure, it really is, but it isn't a Ryuki figure, and that really threw me for a loop. @ guncannon109: A Ryuki figure is the best choice, sure. I think Tiger is really great, Knight Survive is really great, or if you don't want to get one that's the same colors as Abyss, Ryuki is the best choice bcause he includes Dragredder. But you really can't go wrong with any Ryuki figuart. Except Gai, because he's stupid expensive and has no accessories. |

Well Alternative is a Pseudo Rider. He isn't a rider at all really. So he wouldn't share much with them. Kagawa developed the system as a rival to the Adent Decks, based loosely on the design books of Shiro Kanzaki's that he saw, so it's a much more technological looking thing. The cards aren't supposed to be the same and he isn't really meant to share attributes with Ryuki's other riders. He's his own thing entirely.

I love Tiger, his big ax/visor is awesome, and the claws are really cool, though a giant PITA to get on the first time or two. But totally worth it. |

He's in the show. And actually plays a pretty big role in the plot.

He's one of the bast characters in series. It's a shame he went out like he did though. Fucking Tiger, hate that guy.
