Well, I do wish he were whiter. Especially since I got Weather Dopant in the same package, so the off white is just so incredibly obvious next to him. Like... He's really clearly just not white and that's a little annoying.

I also must have gotten luck with my Gaim's Musou Saber clip, because I still have no problems with that. Unfortunately, my Zangetsu's is too frighteningly tight to want to use ever again. Not sure if that's better than the opposite problem a lot are having...

Nothing seems off about the hands.

I don't want to call him disappointing, because it's still a good figure, but my least favorite of the three Gaim Riders thus far just because when I look at him I can only think "that's not quite right."

So I picked up MMPR Yellow today, do they all have a really long neck post? She looks like a giraffe in somew poses I put her in.

Yea I tried swapping pink and yellows round but it looked the same. It due the female mould I think

Weird. I have female ShinkenRed and her neck seems about right.

I know how it works, but I always hate it when sellers get salty and will put down $200 on a auction.

Also if I'm not mistaken on Mandarake if your order is less than 5000 yen they charge an additinal 500 yen service fee. I remember trying to order Ultra Act Taro fro 3000 yen and my order was going to be 5000 yen. I had to email to Mandarake and chanced my order. On Amazon and CStoys, I was able to get the figure for a better price.

My MMPR Yellow seems ok. Am I missing something?

Shinkenger use a different mold to Zyuranger.

But honestly I've never noticed with my Ptera Ranger, although I only have Tiger Ranger and not MMPR Yellow to compare.

What's this about necks?

The proportions of MMPR yellow seem a little off, probably because she was built using spare parts from other figures. Mainly the neck looks way too long.

Yeah, that's true.

It's not a big negative on the figure at all to me though, MMPR Yellow came out superb imo. FiguArts, at least for me, seem to be the only line ice ever collected with no QC issues yet and I have quite a few. Probably jinxing myself right now. I just though it was sad that I had to mention that. I remember as a kid never having any issues with a toy due to factory errors. Now it's like, one line out of like thirteen that I collect.

Are you sure it is the neck or just the head? To me it looks like the head is too big and it is probably due to them just using the already molded head and putting it on a female body.

It's kind of a little of both. Head is a tiny bit big, but it'd be cool if the head sat alittle lower on the neck post. I'll try to snap a quick piccie tomorrow. It's easily hidden with some good posing but today I tilted her chin up all the way so she could look upwards as much as possible and I was all like: oh geezuz. Still a great figure though.

Well, excuUuUuUuUuUuse me, Princess! :p:lol

Blue AND Black Beet!

FUCK YES!

Holy shit YES!

Aw man, I was just about to make a topic in the news forum, but Den-O's definitely on it now...

That's pretty freaking sweet.

Fuck everything else I NEED these on my shelf.

O_O BLUE AND BLACK BEET, HA...HAAA IC AN'T BREATHE

AMazing news, AMAZING NEWS! Please tell me they're a regular release!

EDIT: shet I saw the collector's shop logo, NVM though still getting these bad boys.

Here you can borrow mine!

*Throws inhaler*

I literally just imagined myself catching an inhaler like a zecter thanks to your avatar.

But like woah, I guess it was to be expected as they seem to be going through Metal heroes now, but oh man I'm really excited, Blue Beet is hands down one of my most favourite suit designs in toku. I still have those big ol light up toys from back in the day...well minus some antennae...

God I hope these are retail, or at least Blue is. But you know what, I wouldn't mind shelling out the extra money if they're exclusives. Juukou B-Fighter is one of my favorite tokus of all time and is my favorite Metal Hero show so I am more than willing to pay for these.

The photo has the web shop logo. But I'd be willing to bet Bluefin will bring these over.

I think I'm safe until they announce G-Stag.

As much as I disliked this design initially, I think the metallic paint really makes it shine. Definitely need this to round out my Gaim Figuarts.

Mach Jabber and Kamen Rider Duke.

What?! Duke is coming out too? Seems like I spoke too soon, I think he will be my last Gaim Figuart since he's got my favourite rider design from Gaim. Unfortunate that he's a Web Exclusive though it was to be expected.

Now all we need is Marika and Sigurd.

I hope they also do Baron Lemon Energy Arms, I know it's like the cheapest second form for a secondary rider but it does look good.

Actually I'm quite surprised that no alternate fruit forms have been made into figuarts, would have thought Baron Mango arms would have been made at least by now.

yes! I need!!!

Now if only we can get some Blue SWAT ones.

The B-Fighters being web exclusive make it easy for me not to buy them. Thank you. Now... FINISH JETMAN AND DAIRANGER!!!

There's always a chance Bluefin could release The B-Fighters. I mean Big Bad Beetleborgs was Saban's most popular Toku show that was not Power Rangers.

I mean, if even characters that never showed up in the states can get a Bluefin release, like pretty much all of the main Riders who aren't Black RX, surely it'd be reasonable to expect the Beetleborgs, who were fairly popular.

Bluefin said that they wanted to do Big Bad Beetleborgs figures a while ago around a year ago. I think if Saban is cool with it then they could get a US retail release.

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaawwwwwwwwwwwwwwww, Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!

We just need to see some of the VR Trooper stuff and I think every show Saban used in the 90s will have Figuarts figures made in some form or another.

And Knuckle.

He meant for Energy Riders.

Biased Opinion Alert: Knuckle is more important than the Energy Riders!
