Banpresto has a new line of Kamen Rider trading figures in store for us!
At prize Fair 2013, they unveiled a new line called UFC Micro, and Volume 1 of the series will have Heisei era Kamen Riders from Kuuga all the way up to Gaim represented in a microscopic form. At 15mm, the figures are barely bigger than a man’s finger and an impressive amount of paint work and detailing went into these tiny figurines. They will be in circulation starting June 2014. |

I'm not sure I see the point of these. I guess having every single rider (maybe even forms if they get there) within something that has an area of 10 cm would be quite amusing. I also can't imagine the manufacturing of these is very fun, and the painters probably hate them. For what the are though, they are quite impressively painted and detailed.

Cool as these are, I wouldn't know what to do with them. I wouldn't open them that's for sure, for fear they might go missing if I breath on them wrong.

They look cool but what's the point? Heck, if you have a baby around (or a dog) they might get eaten.

These are utterly pointless

Says someone who has no imagination.
I'm gonna pose these guys with my Transformers. They're fucking adorable and I want them all. They better be all in one box. Quote:
So can any number of accesories and parts of figures. I would like to think anyone with animals or children would exercise the proper descretion if they purchased these and not put them near children or pets. Last edited by SPLIT LIP; 11-07-2013 at 01:58 PM.. |

If these were sentai figures I could totally understand their purpose and maybe buy into them, they could just about be in scale with DX robos. But they aren't. As riders in that scale they don't really go with anything at all other than each other. Forgive me for not seeing the point in owning something so small that if I had poor vision I'd forget I owned it.

I read "Micro Series" and briefly believed KR was getting a comic book series...Man, that would've been cool
Anyway, these are kind of neat. They look to be more high end novelties than anything else.
