Other than Rider villains? Not often lol

Although Horse is not necessarily a "villain".

Just ordered a 5000 yen Gridon on Mandarake. Lowest I've seen him in a long, long time. Hopefully I get him..

This isn't really inaccurate since he never places Type Speed onto the holster. Gaim not coming with any of the lock seeds for his was a much more irksome minor discrepancy.

We get Rider villains quite regularly. Just looking at the most recent seasons, we got Medusa, Phoenix and White Wizard, Gaim has had several and is still slowly going through its extensive cast of characters and we're already getting Heart and Machin Chaser for Drive.

To be fair though, Chaser was effectively the "Second Rider" even before he was revealed to orignially be/become a proper Rider, not to mention that he's the deuteragonist of Drive. So him NOT getting a release early on would be... Well, just wrong.

I'm still a bit miffed that we get Heart before we get a single Overlord, especially Lord Baron.

That needs to happen this year. This and Knuckle.

A reissue of Shin Zangetsu would be nice, if hilarously, hideously unlikely. If only to drive the price down just a little.

I mean seriously, it's ridiculous.

Yeah reissues of Web Exclusives are highly unlikely, they have to do stupid shit like with the dusty Godzilla that was revealed recently to make it work. And sadly there are not much repaint options for the energized melon.

But yeah the prices he's going for are ridiculous, in retrospect I'm glad I went with the slightly overpriced Day 1-stock at NY. It was expensive, but still a lot cheaper then what they charge for him now.

It would be funny if they cheat the rule and release a Kamen Rider Zangetsu Melon Energy - Mitsuzane Kureshima Edition, which looks exactly the same but the package tells you it's supposed to be Micchy in the suit. An amusing fact that you can happily ignore and have a perfect Zangetsu Shin without spending hundreds of bucks to get one.

Oh if only they were that savvy/generous...

Maybe just BARELY tweak the color scheme by half a shade or something.

o_O

How bad has it gotten for him?!? Zangetsu Shin is one of the few Gaim suits I didn't have a big interest in owning so haven't paid attention at all.

Well, comparatively, last time I saw one on Mandarake, he was for 15000
