The ports on the Ryuki figures suck on most until you get to Raia's release and forward. The can pop off by a bad joke...as for Dragredder, the are ball joints, so if the ever got loose clear nail polish is your friend, No the whiskers....ummm. don't let him near a cat?

Due to a reshuffle on my Detolf case, I was trying to be careful, but since my detolf isn't completely stable and tends to shake whenever I open the door or shuffle the figures around, some of my Figuarts figures fell off the shelf, with Shadowmoon bearing the worst of it and one of his antenae snapped off! :(

It took about 12 minutes to find the piece and placed it in a small plastic bag until I can find the right adhesive to glue the antenae back with some tweezers & a needle. ;-;

Speaking of stands, you know, if they put more than 3 sets of claw pieces in the box I could get a several figures on just a few of the stands. I bet I could fit an entire 6 ranger team on 4 stands if I had enough claws to do so.

Ah well, he's been pretty high up my to-get list for a while.

Don't get nervous. He is a good figure, it's just that he has some design flaws.

Also, anyone with Ryuki, just how bad are the loose ports that I have seen/heard about? Is it a common issue? Is it bad enough to be a real mark against the figure? Also kinda worried about Dragredder getting loose over time, or his whiskers breaking (ditto the ones on the strike vent).

Loose ports? Are you referring to the round thingies? If so, when I first got him, the one on the right arm seemed to always fall off. However, I haven't had it fall off in months, and usually when it does, it is because I swiped my finger against it by accident.

I'm always seeing people bringing it up as the worst or one of the worst examples of a Figuarts. Yes it has problems and it was the first Rider Figuarts to move away from diecast feet but it's not a bad toy.

I've been collecting figuarts from the very first "The Next" series..and I'll admit..the OOO series was a huge step down. I don't think they're horrible action figures..I think we were just spoiled with the earlier releases. No diecast feet (although I will admit...the plastic feet on Another Agito (a first I think?) didn't really bring down the figure that much)...warped plastic..uneven paint apps. Seems like they were either rushing or making a huge amount in very little time. I hope diecast feet make a permanent comeback. Now a days, getting diecast feet on a figuarts is like a treat. It used to be the norm.

Now that I've got him in hand some more and have posed him a bit, I really really do like him. His hip joint seems to have settled itself a touch, it's not as bad as it was, and *knock on wood* hasn't popped off on me again in a while. His belt is even behaving itself.

I've never really agreed with the complaints on his proportions. No they aren't perfect, but other than his feet being a bit big I honestly don't think he looks all that off, at least not to his detriment.

And just aesthetically the figure is beyond beautiful. That flat, matte black on his coat in contrast to the absolutely gorgeous red, and the use of transparent plastic with the shiny red underneath is just...my God the figure really is like a gem.

THIS^^ I was completely blown away with Wizard's "Flat Black" finish...Gives the figure a "collector" feel to it. Almost like painted plastic as opposed to just plain plastic. I like this figuarts a lot.

Mmm jetman and dairanger figuarts... There's something so much more appealing about buying sentai teams that never got power ranger iterations
