Cool, didn't realize this was out already. How's the joint stiffness on the Figuarts in general? I'm considering getting this guy, but I'm not paying 40 bucks for a floppy mess.

Sword Strike Vent? Neato.

Great gallery, very funny. :lol

...I have transformer's Hellscream...he'd make a PERFECT contract beast...

I'm gratified you are all enjoying the extra pics. They took FOREVER but I had a lot of fun taking them. Sword Strike was the hardest to do, but I think it paid off. :)


All of the Ryuki figures feature awesome snug joints. Abyss specifically, might be a tad too tight on the bicept swivels, but other than that, he's perfect. There is no such thing as floppiness on any of the Ryuki Figuarts I have, so you should definitely get him.

His Design is one of the few cool things that came out of Decade. I am so gonna get this bad boy :lol

Its a great figure. Who knew how different a Ryuki buck could look with some paintwork on the torso and thighs. And the Light blue metallic paint stands him out from the other 13 Riders. I can't believe he's a mainstream release. I have him chilling out with Raia and Scissors on the aqua-force part of the collection.

I don't think "floppy mess" applies to any Figuarts. If ever joints are an issue, they're usually too tight.

But the Ryuki body Figuarts are all emaculate.

My Cyclone Joker would like to have a word with you.

I'm glad to hear that. The only reason I asked is because I've had some floppiness issues with the Gundam HCM Pro line, the only collector-y action figure line I've ever bought anything from.

My CycloneJoker would too, but he can't move because his hips squeak like a rusty gate when he tries to walk over.
