That's what I'm going to try first. Black panel line Gundam marker comes in a lot of marker sets. If that doesn't look great, I'm going to be very careful with some black wash/paint and a toothpick.

Switches I can accept and expected, but the orange lines on his suit being decals is honestly bullshit. As is the lack of foil backing for the eyes. Some of these kits are seeming two steps forward, two steps back. I'm wondering what compromises OOO will have to offset the tampographed chest symbol.

The real bummer is that the orange stickers on the torso go onto white parts. Bellow the waist they go into black parts. Trying to paint both of those to match is gonna be rough.
And yeah a Gundam Panel Liner marker (GM01) should work perfect here.

Shouldn't be too bad if you prime in the same color, right? Do a black primer, throw some silver over it, then a clear orange or something if you have the means. At the very least, you could buy a can of white spray paint for the black pieces and then go over it with an orange marker or something after? Not the best solution, but it's something. Stickers might be best depending on the part.

It really ought to ave been separate parts. It's prevalent enough to warrant its own gate on the A runner, there's no real reason it can't be separated. Parts separation is always preferable to painting, even if you plan to paint it anyway, because of the aforementioned masking issues. Bandai makes these kits so user-friendly and sometimes has great colour separation and then sometime they just phone it in. |

One thing I wish the FRS figures did is have the different scales and sizes like the Gunpla's do i.e. 1/144, 1/100, etc. Maybe that'll come with time but I think that would be a huge thing for the Kamen Rider figure brand.

But I think the reason that they don't do different scales is because we already have SO-DO/SHODO. And the Artisan line's 1/8(?) scale line. |

I think also the kits just aren't that popular yet. They're definitely growing more popular with time, but not quite at the level of different scales
