So this is probably a dumb question, but do the Zero One So-Do boxes come with just one of each character (and two small boxes to each) on the box, or is it 10 small boxes in total like I keep seeing on some sites?

Oh there are 2 different types of boxes one that comes with just the full set of characters (6 to 10 boxes typically) and there are larger sets that include spares of some characters that are usually 10 to 12 boxes.

Is there a way to tell them apart? I haven't seen anything, but it might be the sites I'm using (Amazon mainly, idk why)

sets have a special box they come in, and you can tell by box count

for Saber though, they are only doing 10/12 box cases beyond wave 1

Well there's now a shapeways store for SO-DO stuff, so this is pretty cool.

I love G3-X and I'm so happy to have him in Shodo.

Like the rest of Shodo, there's missing paint apps, but because this was an exclusive he has way, way, more than normal painted. There's not much missing and what is isn't seen often. I'm amazed they painted the backpack.

What's The only things I've noticed missing on the body are:
Back of the belt.
Silver straps on the back of the legs
The panel below his belt on the back. This is the only place missing any color other than silver.

Let's talk about the weapons...there's a lot. Starting with the GA-04 Antoures. This is the one that's missing the most paint, but I'm fine with that because unlike the Figuarts the hook comes off.

So one twist tie later and we're beating up Grongi.

Now for the GM-01 Scorpion and GG-02 Salamander. The Scorpion's scope come off and the Salamander comes off as well.

There's also a second slightly smaller Scorpion included with a peg so it can store on the leg. Yes, he can duel wield them.

The GK-06 Unicorn and Guardacceler are neat. The Unicorn was my favorite mode to use in Battride War, so I'm happy to have it. The Guardacceler is...a car key.

Some of the weapons are molded in very soft PVC. The GS-03 Destroyer probably has it the worst as it's a long thin blade. It's also undersized. It's also a huge pain in the ass to connect.

Since I keep my Figuarts G3 equipped with the Destroyer, now's a good time to compare.

...and also steal the bigger Destroyer.

Briefcase buddies.

BFG time. This is the GX-05 Kerberos in GX-Launcher mode. That's the briefcase unfolded, with an energy magazine, the Scorpion and its scope, and GX Bullet attached. This gun can hurt god himself (I'm not joking, that happened)

And if you you want to get non-canon, you can add the Salamander to it.

The BFG parted out. Reminds me of some of my favorite GI Joe toys.

The only thing I don't like is that in order to hold the Kerberos properly under the arm you have to bend the hand's peg. It pulls the peg half way out of the arm, so pushing it back in afterwards straightens it, but still. They really should've included one more hand molded for this or an extra of the trigger hands.

All-in-all, I finally have my favorite Rider in Shodo and it happens to be my new favorite Shodo figure...and Burning Agito and Gills are here to, I guess.

That is... so beautiful and intensely difficult to resist now. Curse you!

I still don’t have my laptop to link images, but the new SODO blog hit and aside from its new reveal and some lovely SHODOX10 images; it stated that the Agito Awakening set exceeded expectations so well they’re working on a new project. So look forward to that! G3, Exceed Gills and G3 Mild, maybe?

Last chance for my Sodo Ride Hopper before I customise it into an AIMS bike! £10 plus postage preferably in the UK.
