Quick update on the sodo box: I've payed for shipping and the box is ready to ship, it just needs to be picked up by UPS. My biggest concern is that it's been "ready to ship" for a few days now, and that that could mean something is up.

They look great together, can't wait till Naki's out so they can be completed

Once again, So-Do defies all expectations of predictability! Two new reveals this week!

First is a new figure, the first Another Rider figure since last October, Another Zero-One!

This week's blog also inclueds the first focus on wave 2 of Chronicle Kuuga, starting with Growing Form and it's clenched fist hands.

He also includes stickers for the red anklets for the three part Rider Kick against Me-Ginoga-De in episode 19 because So-Do does everything!

AND LAST BUT NOT LEAST!
Hopping Kangaro is out this Friday

It would’ve been so cool if we got more than one of each of those hand parts. I’ll probably keep it blank so that it can represent any of the basic keys.

AI10 Speculation 2.0:
Dodomagia
Dodomagia Custom
Another Zero-One
Kamen Rider Naki
Kamen Riser Ark One
Battle Raider (1-box)
Accessory pack.
This might be two boxes over the line meaning that Naki might be released in Sodo Saber.

Adjusting my previous speculation as I forgot that Dodo was one box. We probably won’t get the Battle Raider unless they make an action enemies set but that leaves enough spots for both Naki and Ark One.

That brings us up to 10 Another Riders, right (Out of ~25 or so). Not bad for something I was once arguing was incredibly unlikely to get made! And I stand by that, SO-DO is just really unpredictable sometimes!

Also, that's one neat effects set! Don't really need any of it, other than maybe the Lightning Hornet parts if I ever get around to picking up Valkyrie, which I might, but that's a future problem. I'm just glad you can now have Fuwa fail to open a wolf key, in SO-DO form!

Sadly it doesn’t include Shooting Wolf stickers.

Probably obvious but the blog also promised more AI10 and Chronicle Kuuga reviews next week!

Also you missed the best image

Now that I think about it if my predictions are correct then this will be our first Villian-only wave in Sodo, or at least Zero-One, Right?

Why would it? The hands are sculpted to be Zero-One's hands. In fact, Vulcan needs his own hands posed forcing open the key.

I've joked elsewhere that they could do the unthinkable and have a second accessory pack in the wave. I'm liking that idea the more I think of it. Could have the Shine System, Shining Progrise Key hand (the unlocking pose), Vulcan key hands, energy scarves, briefcases, etc.

Look, I forgot that 01 and Vulcan have completely different base suit colours and thus would need different hands, I was just so excited to be able to recreate "Fuwa fails to open key" in plastic form. You know, despite not owning a Fuwa figure. The joke, essentially, failed on many levels.

Kuuga with a gun is so good. It's the best accessory they've ever given us. I need to see pics of more So-Do figures holding a gun.

I would definitely be down for another parts set. It's pretty much a guarantee we'll get aby missed Rider suits in Saber So-Do, so i wouldn't mind more slots in this last wave of Zero-One being used for parts instead

Sodo display revamp!
http://www.tokunation.com/attachment...1&d=1595791234

Looks fantastic!
(also glad to see that I'm not the only one who has trouble with photos here)

Now that Saber got revealed, I’m going to speculate who we’re going to get in set 1:
Saber Brave Dragon
Saber Dragon Peter
Saber Dragon Jakkun
Blaze/ Blades Lion Senki.
I expect to get the reveal during August or latest the day Saber premieres since we still have to get through the rest of AI10, the ?ai Sodo set and the premium box set.

For zero one the first infos were given really late in my memory (end of august or early september for a release in october I think ?).
I also checked this week-end, last year premium box with zi-o, geiz and woz was released in june, so it could mean that there will be no premium box this year (or may be postponed). Perhaps due to the corona crisis ?

Went to town on the Humagear with the panel liner. Also painted the back (it looks better in person) and painted most all of the silver to.

Box has arrived and um was really flipping huge 60cm by 53cm by 27cm and weighing in at 10.46kg. I knew all of this in advance but holy crap seeing it in person is a sight to behold.

It's like a ball pit except with SO-DO.

It looks fantastic, you did a great job!

ha ha OH GOD.

Take your time breaking it down, but don't hesitate to ask for payment on the stuff for other people! Other people like me! Because every second you aren't asking me to pay for my portion of that giant box adds weight to my guilt!

Go On is shipping out and I'll have it on the 6th - 21st of August.

Now I need the two after Magi. May try for them after the first.

So I got it all sorted, but could not sleep on my bed last night because of it. I'm a smart person (I actually am because otherwise dog might've got to them/sat on them).

Edit: I am not trying to guilt trip anyone (die)

Wow! Great work! I also appreciate you building and stickering them for everyone for free! You're the best!

(You are sincerely the best for dealing with this. As exciting as it is to see all those tiny mans in one place, that is a disgusting amount of work for one person to deal with. I'm very grateful!)

Look at that haul! Glad to see they arrived safe and sound. Zenmarket had sent out an email saying that they were trying to get through their backlog by the end of the month and it looks like it's going well. My zenmarket package arrived yesterday. Sadly, it contained zero SODO.

That huge box of So-Do inspired me. Just sent an email to Amiami asking if my returned orders from February and March could be combined with my unshipped orders from May through July. Zero-One waves 5 through 8, along with 5.5, OOO wave 2 and Kuuga wave 1. It'll be painfully expensive, but I just started finally beginning the long task of getting caught up on the last nine months of Zero-One, having fallen behind back in October as the Fall term started getting intense. If all goes right, I'll have an army of tiny men to accompany me on this journey!

You're right, we should petition the mods to add a field under our avatars where we list the total weight of unopened SO-DO we have in our homes.

Ha, I'd appreciate that feature! I can't imagine how big a box this'll all take. Wouldn't be surprised if shipping cost is in the triple digits. I just can't wait any longer. Finally getting to sticker something new with Ride Plus 2 gave me a hit that I'd forgotten how badly I missed!

That big haul of SO-DO figures reminded me of musicians showing off their stacks of money. :lolol

I actually put together my first SO-DO today. I was looking for something simple and fun to put on my office desk at work and this fits the bill.

It was surprisingly fun to sticker up, and some of the stickers are very cleverly designed, like the one on the leg that has a small blue section to go over the painted blue armor.

You can really tell how much thought goes into these, from the sticker layout to little things like the stand that is storage for armor, a tool for action poses and a simple display base via the peg for the foot, all in one.

Anyways, this guy will join me on the 9 to 5 adventures from now on. Oh, by the way, I thought the candy included with these was super disgusting? It tasted really bland to me :lol

Great job!

I think I described them once as snack-sized toys, and they really are. The figues themselves are neat, but the experience of building and stickering is the heart of what makes SO-DO so unbelievably addictive. You can go from a couple boxes to a finished figure in less than 20 minutes. And the final figure ain't bad!

Welcome to the SO-DO fandom. Enjoy these early moments, when you aren't knee-deep in tiny mans.

Thank you! Yes, the process of putting it together was quite enjoyable. And I was a bit surprised by how well this little figure turned out, the stickers work wonders.

Nah, SHF are my addiction, I'm not planning to get any more candy toys. Maybe if I find something unique I want, but I just needed this one so far.

You missed the good old days of the candies from back in Build, and I think Ex-Aid as well. Little sugar tablets instead of the cruddy gum they give you now. I still have a bunch of them from two years ago sitting around somewhere.

Speaking of the candy...

Just payed for AI09!

But where the ramen noodles at. The Hell Brothers are only complete with ramen noodles. Ramenless Hell Brothers is like Kirenger without his curry rice or Bouken Silver without his veggies. :lolol

Those were the figures I had at the time, but since you asked there's a BotBot for that.
