He is gorgeous, but he also feels weirdly cheap, really lightweight like the older figuarts used to feel. Also with the lack of accessories there isn't a lot you can do with him, display or play.

wait...he has the same arms as shadowmoon?

To be fair, it isn't like Black used anything but his fists outside of one scene at the very end of the show. There isn't anything to give him. Fists are all he uses, so that is all he need.

I am quite happy with the hand selection this time around, as it looks like they made his hands from the show.

I just kinda wish they gave him some effects parts so you could replicate his epileptic fit inducing powers.

I do agree there. Or even a stand, but Bandai seems to be cutting back when they can. I'm honestly surprised we got as much as we did with both KyoryuRed and Blade. Unfortunately, I don't expect to see any of the other rangers/riders from those series to have so much. Hell, they didn't even bother giving Battle Hopper a stand, just a holder for one. -_-

Releases really are very inconsistent aren't they? Flame Dragon got a boat load of hands, his weapon in both modes, a stand AND his dragon piece. Kamen Rider Beast for example...well his accessories came in an entirely separate set... and these are the same line, like dafuq.

Bikes don't ever come with stands anymore. That last one to do so was I believe Guard Chaser. Ever since Machine Decader they've been using those wheel stands so I don't know why anyone would be surprised to see that instead of a Tamashii Stage.

Probably because the original Battle Hopper came with a stand, so I assumed the new one would come with the same one. Hell, this new BH doesn't even come with hands for Black either.

Personally, I wouldn't mind if they raised the price of the Figuarts by $4-5 and gave us a specialized stand like they did with the Wizard forms.

Having just played around with my renewal Black, I honestly don't care that he doesn't come with much. This is one of the best designed toys I own. The level of detail for the price I paid is simply incredible.
