Again, Fourze was the first Rider series I saw to completion (Gaim being the first to see as it aired), and it's a completely different tone from almost every other Heisei series before or since. Plus, Gentaro is such a lovable dolt and Ryuusei is... Well, made of star stuff and awesome.

Wow the old Kuuga SHF looks like a children's toy compare to the new Kuuga SHF :D. I'm glad that I sold my old Kuuga SHF on Ebay for $15.

YEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSS

Banzai Hobby came through, my Kuuga just shipped, holy crap I've never been so in love with a retailer before. I preordered this thing just yesterday!

The added fact that the figure had 24% off which made it cheap to ship even with EMS waawaawaawa.

Fourze was like the one piece of Kamen Rider, I love it when shows really put a huge focus on friendship and that knowing your friends will back you up is something stupid powerful.

Really?... And wow. It's (seemingly) still in stock too. Why have I never heard of Banzai Hobby before?

Anime-Export was similarly quick in shipping out my order last night, once I paid for shipping. Kuuga and Iron Man sooooon!

I wasn't able to find out so I wanna ask: was it said whether the Max Flare, Funky Spike & Midnight Shadow Tire Koukan pieces were part of some first-run-bonus deal for Drive, Mach & Chaser or are they actually packaged in every copy of the figures?

First run bonuses that are packaged outside of the figure.

(Not my pic incase it wasn't obvious)

Drive's packaging looks pretty sweet not gonna lie

It looks a lot thinner than usual, much like Kikaider's box.

That seems to be a trend now for SHFs with small accessory counts.
