I'm gonna get Chalice first then at some point *if the price is decent* get Shadow Chaser, that's if I don't make more plans to purchase anymore British Model Railway items for a while.

Hell. Yes. I was literally just wondering what happened to Chalice, and then this. I'm beyond pleased that he isn't packed with his bike (I'd rather not pay $90+ for a figure I like and a bike I'd never waste display space on), and him being a retail release is just icing on the cake.

The problem is that his bike is a web exclusive. I'm already able to tell that: Green Clover Bike, Blade Jack Form & Wild Chalice *like Garren Jack Form will be & Blade King Form was* are gonna be exclusives whilst Leangle is standard. I'm praying that Tamashii Nations has the courtesy to make: Garren King Form, Leangle Jack Form, & Leangle King Form.

Yay Chalice! I was a little worried he'd end up web exclusive but looks like only his bike did (so was the Garren experiment a failure?). Will be grabbing Chalice but skipping his bike since I don't really need it.

I think we'll see Blade Jack Form at retail, otherwise we'd have probably seen it today instead of Garren Jack Form as web exclusive.

I know. I still don't plan to get the upgrade forms until after I've gotten the base forms & bikes aswell as Wild Chalice being announced *that'll be more than likely be exclusive like Green Clover & Shadow Chaser*

Me: Ginga!! CHALICE!!! I NEED EM!

Wallet: You haven't even bought Zero and Blade...

Me: I hate you wallet...

As for it being exclusive? Well Chalice while important isn't even the secondary rider of Blade, so the chances of Shadow Chaser (or even Wild Chalice) being retail were slim.
We've been over this, some of us genuinely can't afford it...

On that topic did Toei even confirm who was Blade's secondary rider? Garren was the first rider shown, but Chalice was far more relevant in the plot.

I think what they could do is release a rider by himself and a rider packed with his bike in retail and then do the bike individually as a web exclusive a few months later for those who decided after getting the figure that they want the bike after all.

I would love to get my hands on this. I really like Ginga's design.

I understand the whole "Kamen Walker" thing but for all intends and purposes bikes are just too pricy for what's essentially a big add on set to a figure that's already sold separately.

With the exception of Autovaijin, bikes really do nothing on their own, so it's kind of hard to justify them when they cost MUCH more than a standalone figure.
