Just saying, that means Ryuki and Knight are the same character, too...

Huh. It... yeah, it's a silver Knight Survive all right. Can't say it interests me all that much (I still really need the original Knight Survive :/), but then that could of course change if it's potentially used and important in the novel. The novel that'll probably never be fully translated, so meh.

That's the part that disappoints me the most. I love Ryuki, and I'd love to know the possible continuation of the story, but it'll never happen unless I learn Japanese :S

Technically they are, when Shinji became Knight.

I'm pretty sure it's just a regular one that's faded. Look at the calves and weapon. Those are still somewhat blue.

Of the seasons I have seen it is by far my favorite. Last 10 minutes or so pissed me off royally, but ignoring that it is an incredible, emotional season with some fantastic characters and some great designs.

I'll give it to you that there's some blue on the dark visor and the legs but it just can't be from fading, it has to be intentional. There's absolutely no way that paint fading would result in such an even silver finish. Even on figures that are nearly 5 years old and known for fading like Kuuga Mighty & Rising Mighty, they haven't faded enough for the entire body and all the weapons to turn gray/silver. It's just not possible that something that only came out last year would have done that so thoroughly, but also so quickly. It's either a new figure or a painstakingly good custom.

If you look carefully you can see the regular blue Knight Survive stand beneath the picture, so I think that's actually a reflection. I thought it was fading originally too, but somebody also mentioned that something else in the picture that shouldn't be blue is, also from the stand.

Hey, for those of you who still haven't gotten the original Knight Survive but do want him, 1400 yen at Hobby Search! http://www.1999.co.jp/eng/10194823
