Awesome. Now I just need to decide if he goes next to Decade or on my Ryuki shelf.

He might not be an official Ryuki Rider but he's awesome as hell and will fit in easily so I'm not seeing a problem.

So a mass release for one of my favorite Ryuki designs I am totally down for that!

You know what, why not? Figuarts releases these past few years have been riddled with predictability and dissappointment with who is retail or not. I'm happy to see TamashiiNations willing to gamble on a one guy that wasn't even part of the original series. And he's shark based so that's makes me like it more.

Me too!!
Okay well Imperer as it's actually spelled, and Femme, Alternative, Odin, and Scissors were already announced, and shown off at toy shows, and in magazine scans. The only ones without firm release dates being Imp and Femme at the moment. So they ARE happening, so I don't see what all the fuss is about. Abyss has the exact same amount of screen time as the obscure Ryuki move riders and people still gushed when those were announced.

Femme, Ryuga, and Verde were in 2 movies, not even the entirety of each movie. Abyss was in 2 episodes of Decade. He has just as much credit to get released as any other Ryuki rider.
I can't argue that it's weird as hell for him to be retail, but I greatly welcome it :D

the fact he isn't the internet exclusive like Verde or Scissors makes this damn cool...will easy buy

Never really knew about this guy. Well, I'm pretty sure he had a few seconds in Dragon Knight as a generic monster enemy, which was weird considering he looked like a Rider. I guess it turns out he is! He's got a nice design so I'll definitely get him.

More random than anything. If they can mass release this guy, I don't know why some of the Ryuki Riders themselves had to be exclusives.

Abyss looking mighty nice in figure form. I've always liked that design.

Abyss is pretty cool. I liked him a lot more than some other riders from Ryuki, and he's got a much better design than some from the show, like Scissors, so I'm very happy to have him available to us.

Of course, I'd be getting him either way, but I'm glad he's a mass release, so much easier to get that way, and cheaper. Can't wait.

He'll be displayed with the rest of my Ryuki figures.

Is he not coming with Abysslasher and Abysshammer or the Abyssodon?
Come on. If you're gonna release him before everyone else, at least give him his Mirror Monster(s). :I
