It really was just a super let down...I mean Figuarts Silver Crow has a similar part...but that it has twice as much plastic than this!

I'd assume old since I don't think the new one hasn't been released yet

Honestly if you look at pictures of both side-by-side, the renewal looks miles better.
One of the main problems with the original Kabuto mold was that it was kinda thin. The renewal corrected that and updated the look to make it more screen-accurate.

Honestly, while that's a good picture, it REALLY highlights the weaknesses of the old figure, namely it's thin-ness, lack of proper finishes, the general "good but not incredible" sculpting. It generally looks more like a robot than a guy in an armoured suit.
I still think it looks fine, and while the renewal is a very effective revamp, I don't feel like Kabuto needed the revamp. The differences aren't as dramatic as, say, Black. |

Agreed. Black was one that NEEDED a revamp. The old figuart is just a mess and doesn't even resemble him. Kabuto even with the thinness and bow leggedness though actually looked like Kabuto. So I will agree, Kabuto didn't really need it (still getting it though).

The renewal comes out on the 29th of this month for Japan and I'm guessing the 30th of the month or beginning of May for North America/UK & Europe so that SHF Kabuto is the original one.
