No, it was absolutely a SH Figuarts release, logo and all, and not at all a Soul of Chogokin figure. What you probably saw was the fact that it was simultaneously branded as a Chogokin figure. Bandai's had a long history of having entirely unrelated figures both in their own toylines and simultaneous as numbered Chogokin figures, to carry on the legacy from Popy's Chogokin line. Itassha Robo is both a Figuarts release and GE-... uhh, don't actually know what number designation Bandai gave it. As another example, every single Souchaku Henshin release is also a Chogokin figure.

Soul of Chogokin figures are (usually) their own thing and strictly numbered as GX-xx. It used to be that you never saw anything but older mecha designs in that line too, but that's long since been thrown out the window with certain recent releases and even wholly made-up concepts like the Disney and Doraemon combiners.

Ah. Ok. Thanks for clearing that up. Makes me wish even more that the Tridoron was getting a retail release. I know Itassha was clearanced everywhere by the end, so maybe that's an indication it didn't do too well? Perhaps that scared Bandai off of high priced Figuarts retail releases.

I'm going for Thor first, as I doubt I'll have the money for MK 43 on top of other stuff, just to test how he stacks up to the Figma. If that goes well, then I'll go for the rest of the Avengers. I may just save a paycheck to finance Tridoron, it just seems like a must have as the second SHF car, and first for the Riders. And Luke...well, just cause.

Any chance if Faiz will get a renewal? I hear the original figuart was hit or miss. With Faiz being in the recent Spring Rider movies lately, I hope it's a possibly now.

I certainly hope Faiz doesn't get one before OOO or Decade. The original figure isn't perfect, but I don't necessarily think it needs a renewal just yet either.

My Faiz Blaster and Faiz/Auto vaijin are still good

I don't think it needs a renewal

Shinkocchou is an excuse to release the Riders figures using the suit actor's body proportion instead of some random good looking template.
Shinkocchou Faiz is always welcome.

Yeah, a Faiz Renewal would have to blow me away to justify replacing my current Faiz, especially since mine is the Glowing Stage set.

Decade, OOO, W and Wizard all need a Renewal first.

Yup. I got mine on the 20th. It's sadly coming SAL. I'm still waiting for N-Y to ship the rest of the month's orders though.

All times are GMT -5. The time now is 11:36 PM.
