So no one talks about SS Kiva Emperor?

It's not a completely new reveal but we did talk about it a bit over in the SHF-thread.

Personally it's a tad too expensive for me and I don’t like the lack of a powered up red blade accessory.

Emperor Form is not my favorite form so I'll pass.

Dark Kiva, on the other hands, rocks the psuedo-Victorian Gothic look awesomely but doesn't come with a blade. Really takes down the wow factor. Of course, I could buy the old Dark Kiva but having to buy a figure just for a sword that could've/should've came with the Seihou blows absolute chunks.

I think it's super cool that Kiva Emperor comes with Kivat IV; I didn't expect that!

Guys... Please...!

That may as well be a ghost photo now...

I mean... at least there's a chance of that happening because he's a Rider?

I seem to recall a Utopia Dopant like prototype being seen somewhere and that ain't ever getting released.

I've no doubt Saga and Ixa Rising will happen, they're just doing one Kiva thing at a time

Would be amusing(?) if one of Kiva's alternate forms got made first though.

Since the show has so few main suits (just 6; 8 counting the movie-exclusives), I could actually see DoGaBaKi being possible...

Aw man you just reminded me Seihou Nasca had a prototype and never came out... I was SO looking forward to that.

I really think the only place they have to go with Kiva is Saga. Those other forms of Kiva himself I just do not see being high sellers and worth the investment. So that leaves movie Riders, who are even more unlikely, and Saga left. Which leaves either move on to another Rider or Saga as the only paths in my mind.

And it should be quite obvious which direction I hope they take.

There's also Ixa Rising

Oh yeah! I did completely forget about that one since I've still got the old one on my shelf.

Ok so there's three paths and...

Lol I do wonder which is more likely. I don't think there's been a secondary Rider upgrade in the Seihou line yet. Ixa Rising would be an odd first one..

That suddenly reminded me that we're also way overdue for Accel Trial and W CycloneJokerXtreme !

I just want them ALL TO BE RELEASED I *WILL* BUY THEM!!!
Gimme my SS Saga and Dopants

I think they will do it just because, well, you literally do that and Saga and that's it, you've done! You've completed Kiva's in-show main suits!

I guess it would be an... ~odd~ one to start with, sure; but looking at the Seihou lines where a secondary upgrade even exists...

- Agito never done ANYTHING after Ground Form
- Kabuto's line unfortunately abruptly stopped, and Hyper Gatack is HBV-exclusive anyway
- Zeronos isn't even out yet compared to Ixa, and even then I'm certain it won't be long before we see the Zero Form repaint
- Diend's is basically the equivalent to a V-cin form, and we also only just got Decade Complete. Diend base form itself was for some reason Tamashii Exclusive so maybe they figure it wouldn't sell well enough to do it??
- Accel Trial... can't justify this one, actually! It's very weird we haven't seen it or Xtreme yet!
- Birth hasn't even been done yet
- Beast... kinda fair enough, but we haven't even seen any upgrades for Wizard himself yet


And onto the fact that we got Kiva Emperor before A LOT of other Seihou final forms like Armed, Xtreme and Shining and it's not too out of character. They're just rushing through the Kiva line it seems

That's because it shares a body with Dark Kiva I guess, they can get two releases out of one figure with minor remolding.

Perhaps... though you can three figures out of Xtreme through only recolours and some extra wing parts!

No lie, if Seihou did LunaJoker I would be VERY tempted...

You can, but I doubt they would sell as well as Dark Kiva and Kiva Emperor Form :lol

Yep and the reason why they choose Kiva Emperor was it popular and Dark Kiva sold out and is climbing up in price. I think we’re either see saga or another kiva power up to get more use out of the kiva Figuart. IDK if were see the armor monsters since there a whole new Figuart and since momo did not sell that well so Bandai won’t release something that not gonna sell.

Oh man if freaking Momotaros didn't sell (did he really not? Or is it maybe looking that way because he was a retail release and made in plentiful amounts), there's no way in hell we'd ever get the Arms Monsters.

And even then I'd probably only really want Jiro myself..

Yeah the Arms Monsters seem way too much of a stretch. I'd love to see Figuarts for Kiva Garulu, Bassha and Dogga though.

Look at all the figures I won't be able to afford...
