You could also always offer to pre-paint them if someone buys them.

I see. Well the price for pre-painted would be higher, and I wouldn't want it to be a commission thing (people start asking for wild requests). I could pre-paint them unassembled too. It would be like a SHODO figure in terms of out-of-box pre-paint.

Do you all think people would be interested in buying the spare ones pre-painted by me or is it just better to resell them new-in-box?

I've got some sealed Riderman boxes from a recent SHODO wave I'm trying to get rid of. Not used to doing international shipping, but I'm sure something could be figured out if you were interested.

Has SHODO ever done re-issues? Because a bit of searching is quickly turning up that trying to get anything more than a few waves back is impossible.

Also, I'm gonna give up saying what SO-DO will or won't make. The other future OOO combos were, like, outside of the top ten "What is tonight's SO-DO Chronicle news" guess I had with myself. I was putting more money on Agito.

Will probably be between now and May (I hope)


Also no SO-DO releases in March, that sucks.

It is a shame, but honestly understandable given everything that's going on. I imagine SHODO-X 12 is a little later than it would have been, too; I remember its reveal shocking me with the May release date.

The really major thing here is that it's completely shifted all of SO-DO Saber's releases to a month later. I wonder if that'll be fixed when the next Rider's SO-DO waves come around, or maybe we'll get one less Saber wave?

:D

Also next wave is definitely X Swordsman and Primitive Dragon right?

It was originally meant for March so Primitive Dragon is a definite. What we got left right now is...

Saber Primitive Dragon
Saber Dragon Arthur
Saber Emotional Dragon
Saikou X-Swordman
Saikou Shadow (?)
Falchion

Lucifer
MBJR
ZAIA


I could see them saving the movie duo for Wave 7 since that was supposed to come out in April, which is when the movie's DVD releases. Can definitely see a 01 release or two in Wave 6; I'm betting on them wanting to get Lucifer out quickly. And maybe Dragon Arthur or Saikou Shadow?

I am full of regret I didn't buy Den-o wave 1 sooner, cause atm it's pretty hard to find.

If its any consolation, my Den-O sword form figure is extremely loose. It has the weakest joints of all the SO-DO I have, including Liner Form. It may have been the way I handled it during the paint process, but I've handled the Saber figures way more (completely disassembled them) and they are still fine.

I ended up just biting the bullet and ordering it from BBTS. They've still got it in stock, if you're tired of hunting.

The real trio of Kamen Rider Saber are here!

*img snip*

SO-DO Saber Book 4 is great because it comes with so many unique characters/suits and no filler army builder characters. Only Touma himself is repeated twice. Having already completed Buster, I just had to pick up the 2 other Sword Riders.

First off, both were a massive pain. Kenzan has a ton of stickers that don't want to fit right because they are on curved surfaces. And because of his unique designs, there's not much of a choice with paint. I also straight up mixed up his two sword stickers so I will eventually have to print my own. I painted his weapon a more realistic metallic green, instead of that bright yellow-green plastic color. I like this figure, very dynamic looking, but he seems a bit taller than he should be. Also his dual weapons throw off his balance for any poses you might be trying to do without the stand.

Slash... wow took a lot of paint. Which I guess is fine because he is worth it, but he needs brown, white, and tan- colors that are a pain to paint. I mixed a lot of brown paint and painted in a bunch of areas and then realized there was still a lot of places to paint; so I had to re-mix more brown and couldn't get the color just right. Also his chest armor looks oddly flat. His wrist doughnut things had no sticker at all and I just painted the whole thing tan after trying to paint it two colors for accuracy. Good luck to anyone trying that!

I think Slash ended with the most paint of any SO-DO I've done so far, beating out Gaim. You can't see it but I panted the inside of his armor metallic blue which is more visible in the show.

These Sword Riders are super cool and I love how different they look from each other and don't follow a template like the Seiken Swordriver users.

I don't know yet if I want to do the other figures from Book 4. Dragonic Knight looks mighty fine but I don't really collect the super forms. Let me know if anyone wants to trade for some base forms, I'm looking for Blades and Espada.

Also I really wish all the Saber figures came with an angled sword hand like Gaim!

If you want to add even more realism to the swords you can paint the Gekidou Gunmetal, since that would also make it even more show accurate.
