It sucks that they still hold on to this for the sake of cohesiveness between the Saber Riders, but man am I glad that that episode of Figuarts history is over and we're getting properly detailed Drivers consistently again now. Was afraid Revice might've been an exception until we got to see good pics of Geats.

Sad that they don?t have the details on Brave Dragon but it?s fine as I still have an extra sticker for it.

I?m just happy that Xross Saber is getting a figurarts!

Look guys, I found a rare Shiny.

Yeah Bandai usually does a good job with the driver themselves on the figuarts even including the mechanisms but often slacks on the gimmick items. The worst of those in terms of detailing has been the ZI-O line all the way up to the Saber line.

I find the Saber line to be the worst because the Ridebooks are more exposed...at least with the ridewatches they have 2 colors and still detailed enough to identify

Plus the Ridebook has some killer artwork that matches Saber fairy tale theme and aesthetics. So it kills me all of that was scrubbed away on the figuarts.

It was definitely a good idea to make the first Rider design in the entire franchise a super-super-exclusive! It was such a niche item that clearly there wasn't much demand for!

Why was this not like - the very first thing to release at retail for the 50th anniversary celebration? I still don't get it.

Man, I never had the intention of getting that shf but even i feel the o o o f for the people who did.

My only guess and hope is that they later announce a wider release because surely Bandai has to know that there a lot of fans who know of Ichigo's original design and especially now since his reappearance in Super Hero Senki.

Yo, this thing is packing too. With the longest beam I have seen.

It kind of looks like Shin Ultraman was left out in the sun too long though. In addition to being a shiny, lol.


Also I will get this figure! I am crazy! I am not even allowed to watch this movie, but I will know the whole plot based on figure reveals and dioramas and shit.
