I would be surprised if we got more than a few bikes

But for some reason, buying a model kit of a Kamen Rider doesn't sit right with me? And honestly, the images Bandai Hobby US are posting on Instagram look...kinda cheap. So that's why I'm asking :lol
Yeah, I do wish they'd stop using the CGI models as the main thing. Here's some irl pictures of two of the more recent kits to come out (which are also fully uncustomised, just using what's in the box). I promise you all of them look a LOT better than any of the old gimmick figures, and at that pack far more articulation and accessories to boot

Worth noting that so far only Kuuga has the toe articulation to be posed on a bike.

A bike kit could always come with the parts for replacement feet, but I would infer that no more bikes are planned for now.

Ex-Aid's bike is likely, given it's its own Rider, though Ghost, Build and Zi-O I feel are unlikely. Tridoron would be great, and was used a lot in the series from what I can remember, but it feels a bit too big.

Kurona 01-22-2022 11:37 AM
I don't think we're likely to see Ex-Aid's any time soon... I think if any it'd be Faiz or W. I agree with Crawf though, I wouldn't be surprised to see no more Heisei or Reiwa bikes

Not soon, but if they're planning to release more secondary+ riders in the future Lazer is an option and serves double function.

Also, I don't suppose anyone here both owns Fourze and has skills with CAD software? His right antenna broke in half.

Why is a toe bend necessary for a bike?

Its not for the bike, kuuga has multiple iconic poses where hes bending his toes, so they added the toe bend to allow you to do that, not for the bike. No other rider i can think of has as many poses on their toes as kuuga, and hardly any of those are as memorable as kuugas. Plus i think he also bends them while getting ready to perform his finisher.

How long did it take?
Is it as hard as the Tamiya 1:12 bikes?

SPLIT LIP 01-24-2022 11:24 AM
Only took a couple of hours. Never built a Tamiya bike but it was no more difficult than a Kamen Rider. Almost everything is parts separated.

Could anyone who owns the Decade kit offer some advice?

The right eyepiece just doesn't stay in place, and I can't figure out why. The vertical pieces are all properly set (and you can see in the pic where I've scuffed them a bit making sure they're flush) and the shiny sticker is correctly positioned. The left eyepiece clips in fine, and I can't see anything different between the two sides.

What am I missing? Or should I just give up and glue it?

Kyushushu 02-16-2022 11:43 AM
I had the same issue. I gave up and glued it.

ShiShiLeo 02-16-2022 01:31 PM
I never noticed that on my kit but I have heard that it as a common issue. Perhaps check the nubs and make sure they are cleanly cut out.

I painted the eyes instead of using the included stickers so I wonder if the stickers are interfering a bit.

Crawf 02-22-2022 12:59 PM
Thanks guys. I'm sure it is to do with the sticker somehow, but I'm pretty confident that me trying to paint it could only make it look much worse. I'll give it a dab of glue next time it pops.

DreamSword 02-24-2022 08:42 AM
For anyone who considers themselves a beginner, while this video talks about Gunpla, alot of the tips here and be applied to model kits in general.

I am feeling very despondent now...I can't find anyone who has Kuuga Dragon Form in-stock anywhere. BBTS has him listed for pre-order still, but I don't hold any hope for them getting stock since I've had W Joker Form on pre-order since the end of September when it said October 2021 release, now it says February 2022...HLJ doesn't even have a listing, and there is nothing on eBay.

Does anyone know of anywhere that has Kuuga Dragon Form available?

I didn't think it was officially out yet? Last I heard was late March, but I'm not expecting my pre-order until May.

My advice would be to keep an eye on Amazon Japan. Marketplace sellers tend to get all the FRS kits in stock periodically, and the prices are generally reasonable.

Dragon had a late January/early February initial release
Pegasus has a March initial release.

After some searching, I didn't realize they were PBandai releases, which explains the lack of stock.

ShiShiLeo 02-24-2022 02:29 PM
I think a lot of stuff is still being delayed, especially outside of Japan. I'm still waiting on my OOOs order.

Is there a Figure-Rise class above Standard? Like...Figure-Rise Deluxe? Or Ultra?

No, but around 2011 there was Master Grade Figure Rise, which were 12" figures, and there were also Figure Rise 6 at some point, which were 6" figures and basically the precursor to the current line. There's also currently FRS Amplified, which are classic designs but spikier, but there's no Kamen Rider ones.

Standard actually doesn't refer to the class, IIRC it's a reference to the standardized 6-inch scale. (though Digimon kinda screws with this) Like Q said it's the successor to Figure-rise 6, which again referenced the 6-inch scale but didn't really go anywhere.

Even the MG Figure-rise kits aren't really MG-level complexity, and were it not for the CycloneJoker repaint that came out (likely due to Fuuto PI) the line would be completely dead.

what do guys expect for the next FRS?
i kinda want gattack or Wizard... , or heck, Drive with Tridoron

and since there's Ultraman Suit Another Universe, Dyna Suit

SPLIT LIP 03-07-2022 12:37 AM
Expecting the next main Rider, hoping for secondary Riders or Battle Hopper.

I'd be blown away if we get any final form though.

OmniKhaos 03-07-2022 05:51 AM
Would be fantastic if they, somehow, released W Fang/Joker in FRS...then, Final Form aside, I would have all his main forms.

Hoping for Blade or Wizard releases

ShiShiLeo 03-07-2022 08:49 AM
I'd be happy with any main rider they choose. We are getting so close to all 20 Hesei riders. The remaining ones are the ones I consider somewhat complicated and I'm interested to see how Bandai will do them.

I would really love to see Kiva.

kamen rider Q 03-07-2022 12:55 PM
Weird. Amiami seems to have taken down all of the listings for FRS aside from some of the pre-owned ones, same for Gundam.

Kurona 03-07-2022 07:17 PM
My bets are on Wizard for the anniversary. Either way I'm certain it will be one of the remaining main Heisei Riders since they already took a 'break' from that project with BLACK for their most recent reveal

I like how Hibiki has to hang out with the phase 2s lol. Lovely display, you really make these kits pop

He does kind of have a phase 2 style design being so unconventional.

Also, Build is standing on a slight riser to bring him in line with the others. Without it, he definitely looks out of place in height.

Can't wait for Ghost!

FANG JOKER!!!
AND SKULL!!

i'm a little disappointed cuz it's not a main rider, but still, cool

and i'm even more disappointed for Ultraman Suit cuz it's just Tiga Action, which is just revealed months ago

TheRaizin 03-13-2022 10:11 PM
Eternal doko....

Kisama Nai 03-13-2022 10:12 PM

TheRaizin 03-13-2022 10:22 PM
Hold on are these two P-Bandai?
Fang Joker would be pretty neat

Kisama Nai 03-13-2022 10:22 PM
pretty sure they're retail
