S.H.Figuarts Ride Shooter Revealed
 

It looks like Bandai is finally set to release Ryuki’s Ride Shooter into the S.H.Figuarts line after being teased and showcased for so long.

The bad news is that it looks like it’ll be offered as Tamashi Web exclusive in March with a rather high price tag of 8,400 yen.

I think anyone on here who collects Ryuki figures just made their wallets cry over how many of these theyll buy. :lol

Doesnt every Rider in Ryuki use those?

I want one, but pass. That's pretty steep. I'll wait until I see one on a deal if ever.

Yep, every single one of them (going by Dragon Knight footage.)

Wasn't Den-O planning to get tons of these?

Yes, but I'm pretty sure we never see more than two at a time.

I want this, but I don't want it $90 bad.

Okay, so there isnt a need for buying 13 of them? :lol I cant justify the $50 for Den-Bird, heck no am I shelling out the money for this.

Once in Ryuki we saw three bikes together. But yeah, it's not like everyone needs one.

I don't see the point in buying more than one. Quite frankly they were entirely pointless. They were never used for anything except travelling into the mirror world, which they didn't always use them to do. They weren't functioning bikes, so they were hardly used as transportation, and didn't do anything.

Ouch, the Ride Shooter is one of my favorite Rider bikes but for what it'll cost I'm going to pass.

My question is how will he lock in? Ryuki didn't come with locks on his waist.

ouch, that is expensive. Being that i've got the R&M version, I'll need to see that this one is far superior before I consider paying that much for it. And I may be crazy, but I'm certainly not going to buy more than one.

Maybe you'll have to take him apart and replace the whole belt?
Though the seat belt won't be as necessary, it's not like they'll keep the catapult gimmick from the original Ride Shooter.

No, but I hope the seat lifts like it does in the show.

Its not a bad price all things considered. You have to remember the Bike itself is made of quite a lot of plastic with the canopy and all. And as a guy who dropped 120 bucks on an after-market Magnugiga and then 230 on Genocider I guess I could swing this especially if it does come out in March. Plenty of time to budget.

Aren't all that's left for Ryuki is Dragranzer bike mode and DarkRaider bike mode?

And Biogreeza, Psychorogue, Vulcancer, Ouja Blank Form, Destwilder, Femme & Blancwing, Imperor & Gigazelle, and if we want to be all inclusive then Abysshammer & Abysslasher to go with Abyss too.

I'll pass on that. Too high and it's not like the bikes were really all that significant in Ryuki anyway.

I will never understand the appeal of this design. It's hideous in a way that 80's science fiction mastered. I imagine it'll be a good toy like the rest of Ryuki, but I wouldn't mind very much if this didn't sell much.

Thats why I love it :lol

Which is probably why they made it a Tamashii Web Exclusive to begin with. THey don't see too many sales if this was a standard retail item. Its a unique mold, its a one-size-fits-all concept, its a display place to justify the "Rider" part in Kamen Rider Ryuki, but not much else.

I'ld imagine production numbers will be smallish anyway. Some might double or triple dip but seeing as the bkie itself wasn't unique to each Rider, I'll gun for 1 and be done with it.

Oh, that's neat--
>$90
Fuck that noise.
Where's Dragranzer in bike mode?

I like the design, but not at that price.

Newly updated with official images

Hm...I think I'll wait for Mandarake for this one. Even though that could blow up in my face.

I'm in for at least one

Damn. That is a bit more expensive than I imagined it would be. But I'm still down for at least. Guess I can't have the 13 I wanted :(

Having JUST done a crappy review of the R&M versions on youtube, i can say this one looks to be a bit different.

The Ryuki Figuarts doesn't actually fit inside the R&M Rideshooter quite right, and here he does. So, I'll still very probably end up getting one.

You can, win the lottery! :D

I have a better chance of getting hit by lightning than winning the lottery. Nevertheless, both would be shocking.

Do you mean the Popynica one that was reviewed by Vangelus:

No, I mean I myself made a crappy youtube review of the DX Riders & Monsters Rideshooter.

By strange coincidence, the thumbnail even shows what I mean by the Figuart not quite fitting inside.

Is that the same toy? it might be, I don't know.

I want to get one, but seeing as it's a TWE for $90 I probably won't be buying it (at least not for now).
