I own SS Eternal, I would be ecstatic for him to get a reissue so that others, including a good friend of mine, could get him too.
I'd probably rebuy Kuuga Ultimate, I hated having to sell him. Wanting old figures to stay hard to get and expensive is such a dumb mindset. |

Really excited for CJX. I don't really like the design but I love the character enough that I'll probably end up preordering it.

I have to admit I'm really considering Wizard myself. For most of my main Rider collection I've gone with FRS and have only gone to SHF for ones FRS isn't doing (mainly spinoffs), my favourites like Kuuga and OOO that I want to splurge for, and Build-onwards due to how comparative the prices are (plus FRS isn't doing Reiwa right now anyway). Otherwise I find that FRS' versions of the main Riders are either as good as what I'd get out of Figuarts if not even better in some cases (I prefer how FRS does Den-O's armour, you've got stuff like W's form changes and swappable Decadrivers) that I don't feel like I'm missing out. And, well, FRS being as affordable and available as it is is why I'm even doing a main rider collection because there's no way I'm spending that much money, time and stress on Figuarts for all of them.
Wizard though... is the exception. I'm sure that however FRS does him he will be good, but there's a good case for the Seihou being one of the best SHFs ever made and with its variety of features or even just the wired cape alone, I can't imagine there being anything less than a massive gulf between that and however the FRS turns out. Every single image I see of this thing is sheer beauty and a re-issue (ie a version I haven't immediately discarded from consideration due to a 14,000 yen pricetag) is suddenly having me tempted

Seihou Wizard is indeed one of the most beautiful Figuarts, if not action figures, ever made. Metallic parts, clear parts, fabrics parts, minute detail, extreme posability... you want to show someone how far figures have come, Wizard is one of the single figures you can easily do that with.
For non-Kamen Rider fans, I believe he stands out really well among costume designs that seek to blend fantasy and future. Indeed I was hoping we didn't see a Seihou re-release until I we saw what the FRS could bring to the table, but I'm glad this figure is getting a re-release. It's too good to stay in the aftermarket.

I second that about the Wizard Seihou it is indeed a beautifully designed figure that imo stands out in any collection but at the same time fits in with any toyline. The wired cloth allows for some very dynamic poses just as seen in the show and I truly believe Bandai righted a wrong that was the original KR Wizard figuart with those terrible proportions.
The KR FRS line is definitely welcomed and appreciated and if it was around during the time I was getting into Kamen Rider figuarts I'd probably opted to go that route but then again figuarts WERE the price of FRS back then. In general I'm happy it gives fans an opportunity to start up a nice looking collection without breaking the bank and yes the line keeps getting better and better with closing the gap somewhat on looking very similar to figuarts. Scale aside of course. |

Well that's... Weird. Her official release date was the 19th so literally '"today" right now in Japan. Someone offloaded her fast lol.
