Agreed. The Break Gunner is integral to Chase as a character, it's not specific to one of his forms or the other. Both use it heavily. So it should come with one. It's sad that Chaser doesn't when the inclusion of it would be at minimal cost.

It is literally not any different here. Which is why I'm just not surprised by it. I'm not saying it shouldn't have been included (as one who wanted the sword and gun with Speed, of course I think it should have), but don't you see the hypocrisy you're displaying here?

An easier option is to buy the TK Machine Chaser figure. It's a great figure on it's own and it's much cheaper, the sculpt on his break gunner is really good as well, just have to paint it up a bit and bam perfect for a figuarts.

I don't understand how you can buy a Rider Chaser and not have Machin Chaser.
Rider was retail and easy to get. It was a sick design. Shame on anyone that passed Machin will have dispay options without the break gunner: riding the bike or with the virus upgrades

Not sure why that's such a difficult concept to understand.

Also this implies that people are all going to be buying the bike and the chaser accessory set (which, as an exclusive, is, oh, just more expensive than Mashin Chaser himself). This is not the case. Again. People shouldn't have to go and buy a bunch of ancillary stuff to enjoy their figures... Last edited by barnstenchfartface; 08-24-2015 at 05:53 PM.. |

I'm not really a fan of this design, I thought the Mashin Chaser suit was much cooler looking. This is a nice figure, but I'll be skipping it since I don't have enough interest in Drive to pick up each character's different forms.

You're the same person deriding anyone who wanted a door gun or sword with Drive Type Speed. Because despite what you insist, they're not specific to his other forms (and have been used a whole lot more by Speed than Wild or Technic) and should have been included.

And please don't quote me as saying the gun & sword were specific to any of Drive's other forms as I didn't. When theses forms were initially revealed, in mag scans last year, the implication at the time was that they'd be used with specific forms. That's about the only time I talked about that. My main argument for their inclusion with Figuarts now is that they followed the same release pattern as the TK figures.

Because, as I stated, this is an item that's integral to the character. The Door Gun & Handle Sword aren't henshin devices that Drive uses in both his civilian and rider forms like the Break Gunner. Chase doesn't even use it to henshin anymore but still uses it as a sidearm regularly. So no, I don't really see hypocrisy in that. I feel like there's an actual case to be made here based on the obvious relevance of the item to the rider.

My main argument for their inclusion with Figuarts now is that they followed the same release pattern as the TK figures. I AGREE. He should have it! I just don't think we should be shocked he doesn't given the precedence within just the other Drive releases (which are comparable... as integral to the character it may be, for this particular form it's just another weapon in the arsenal, just like those other examples). Justifiably angry, but not surprised by it. It sucks, but it's what I expected. That's all.
