We were obviously the lucky ones. I have no problems with mine except the driver either.

I feel bad for people who weren't lucky with us, because I love Wizard's design, and all the extra cloaks are for Flame Style, and I just think it's a really fun figure.
It's too bad the majority of them seem to be really shaky.

Especially since Hurricane and Land Style, which are improved, are exclusives and a bit more pricy.

I forgot about S.H. Figuarts Blade, I want to add that as a Best. I've been waiting for this figure for years, and it was worth the wait. My only problem is I won't be able to get Garren to go with it because I can't afford to buy the bike bundle.

Okay, I need to add MonsterArts Biollante to the Best Of list. My god, I have had her for less than two hours now and she is freaking amazing!!!

worst: sadly as much as i hate to say it was SHF ryuranger and kiba ranger for having such tight shoulder joints, ive never had this problem with any of the other sentai figuarts or riders. he is my favorite suit design and its now the first figuart to break on me. im still looking for a way to fix the shoulders i am ordering a new one and want to avoid it snapping again! any suggestions?? ive heard shock oil but how do i get it in to that ball joint?

Best: Wizard Infinity i love the color on this figure! it just pops with the lighting. and second place would have to be dragon ranger.

Doing this based off of all of the toylines I collected this year... which I guess is really quite a few.

Worst:

• McFarlane Assassin's Creed figures. I only have two. And the AC addict in me will have me getting more still. But I'm just not impressed. They're so disappointingly rigid.
• S.H. Figuarts Wizard Flame Style. Yes, a few of you got lucky. Most of us didn't. And my figure barely stays together at the waste, ignoring even the belt issue. It's just too annoying to do anything with him.
• Star Wars Black Series R2-D2. $20 for a hollow tube? Really? I'm quite glad I didn't pay that much. Paint wash on mine is plain bad (basically like grease was literally smeared onto the bottoms of the treads and nothing else). There's a gimmick in what was meant to be a collector's release that cripples him looking good (Want him to look to the right? Hope you like his middle tread sticking half out.). Just overall lackluster at that price. But for what I got him for he's not bad, just the weakest of the line.
• Transformers Generations Blitzwing. Purely for the QC issues. I actually rather like his alternate modes, but that shoulder problem actually makes even transforming him a chore since things don't line up right.

Best:

• D-Arts Metalgarurumon. For a bipedal figure, he is absolutely perfect. There isn't anything else I could want from this figure that it doesn't offer and on top of that he looks beautiful.
• S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Blade. It was tough picking one Figuart, but once again beauty won out here. Stickering aside, this figure was great. I'd be remiss not to also say DragonRanger was a contender here.
• Star Wars Black Series Darth Maul. Love him. He's highly posable, large, and looks great. I almost threw in Fett here, but I still can't pose him well enough to use his obnoxiously rubbery rifle (I swear it's not possible), but there's nothing I can't have Maul do.
• Transformer Generations Springer. Oh boy. There's a lot of Transformers I got this year that I actually like. But none were as fun and well executed as Springer. I just transformed him almost nonstop and he looks perfect in all modes. Honorable mentions also need to go out to Generations Metroplex and Encore Fortress Maximus (thanks Optibotimus :))

So those are my lists... with what I can think of that I got this year heh.

Considering it's a static pony with one joint of articulation, yep :p

Worst-
SHF KyoryuRed- I know he is great design and has a lot of accessories, but the problems people have had with him, he kind of has to be here. Thankfully mine hasnt had that trouble yet, so we'll see.

Best-
Legacy Morpher- Great representaion of the Morpher and awesome collector item.
SHF Hurricane Red- Amazin lookin figure and awesome accesories.
SHF Kiba Ranger- Not as many accessories as others but the way he was made makes up for it.
SHF PteraRanger- Takin the Zyu design and makin for the female mold, makes me want to get Female Yellow along with Tiger Ranger :lol
DX Kamen Rider Gaim Lockseeds, I love the way these things are made.

I also wanna add Black V2 to my negative list as well. I know he has that amazing engineering, but I don't see why he gets a free ride while Kou doesn't.

I NEVER pick up my Black and fiddle with him, as sure I can bend him like a ballerina but so what? Say what you like about the shitty Flame Style (I have, many a time) but he has enough hands to bury me, two weapons and a dramatic cloak thing, so what is Black's excuse?

No weapons? Well how about effects pieces? You pack them with Ultra Acts and ALL of Black's attacks are special effects and pretty damn easy ones to translate to effects pieces. There is no excuse for like four hands and that is it, he costs the same as any other Figuart and for a new version it's pathetic how barebones he is.

The Black V2 has 5 sets of hands, while Kou has 4 hands total and one accessory, though.

The lack of special effects hurt it, but the simple effort they put into it is why I'm so forgiving (They even made his joints have the same muscle detailing the suit had, rather than make them pure black and have the cop out excuse they gave for Double's forms)
