I couldn't see a thread for general simple questions anywhere, which is a shame when this is a small one that'll probably be answered very quickly.
Basically; I know about the Figure-Rise line of Rider figures and have been looking into them for quite a while. The 1/8 line consisting of W, Ichigo, OOO etc is, of course; much larger than your standard action figures (Figuarts, Marvel Legends, etc). So that's irrelevant here. What does interest me most of all is the line containing Faiz, Kabuto, Build; and soon enough Ex-Aid, Zi-O and Geiz. Basically, I've come across two separate listings for Faiz and Kabuto each on HLJ, and I am trying to discern the difference since I've found no information about this: is there a difference between 'Standard' and '6'? My assumption, from the different prices, names and pictures used; is that the 'Standard' figures are slightly upscaled versions of the '6' figures more in line with your usual Figuarts-scale stuff. This also seems consistent with there only being 'Standard' listings for Build, Ex-Aid, Zi-O and Geiz. I just want to make sure I have this right before making any decisions, because Kabuto in particular REALLY has my interest for having a Cast Off gimmick. |

The Figure-rise 6 are the old 2014 versions of the kits, only Kabuto and Faiz got made back then.
The other riders on the standard line are brand new molds but I think these two are just reissues, same parts, slightly different color on the plastic and modern stands included. EDIT: Looked for a comparison and the new ones do have slightly better color separation with new pieces, but are still mostly old ones. Last edited by Vraptor140; 04-27-2019 at 12:09 AM.. |

So it's all the same parts and all the same size; no other meaningful differences outside of colour?

They will look mostly the same yes, the hues are different and the new ones need less sitckers/paint to look complete.
I found a direct comparison on Faiz here: |
