It looks so good! Glad the driver is going to be transparent instead of a solid color like Zi-o. Looks like this figure has been painted with the exception of the orange on the chest. That's a sticker. The black lines on the suit and a lot of the driver details look painted on. It has me worried about how this is going to look without stickers or paint. We could be in for Ex-aid level sticker coverage with this one.

The Fourze Driver's red flips and handle would definitely be stickers.

I am curious as to what Fourze would look like without those black panel lining; there's absolutely no way they'd have the seams all pre-painted in the box, let alone provide tiny little stickers that serve to fill in the grooves.

Didn't they say at the start that they're going to use some special thing to paint all of the grooves?
" Shading mold is adopted to reproduce the black line of the body." From the Bandai listing.

Maybe we'll just have to wait to get better pictures. If you zoom in on the black lines in this picture, there's places where they missed a little lining. Maybe this is just an early model that doesn't have the shading mold yet?

Curious to see how the switches will be handled myself... either way the head turned out glorious!

Yeah I hope the head is glossy in the final figure!

Hmmmm, I didn't see that announcement. This is gonna be interesting.

Maybe looks like this

anyway, what event is that?

I actually hope those lines are not pre-filled. Based on the image shown, I would want to panel line with grey rather than black.

Event photos are definitely wildly misleading. I'm still sour over how good W looked at events vs his final rendition!

I'm glad the Bandai blogs go into deeper detail for each kit as we get closer to release. That's actually really cool of them, and it shows how proud the designers are of their creations.

Haha I say all this as if any of it would stop me from buying the kits. I'm basically all in on the main rider kits. They've been awesome, and its just a matter of how much extra work I'm gonna have to do to them.
