If they start doing the Ryuuki Riders I'm keeping my Mirror Monsters and selling off the OG figures separately. Just like how I'm keeping Den-O's Hissatsu attack effects but passing the rest of the original release on.

Also really hope Faiz is next. I know they loved rereleasing the mold constantly but he needs an update badly.

Actually, no. Zero-One's progrise key is pretty static. You can tell it can fit into the Progrise key holder on his waist by using the correct side, but the key can't close so... I don't know. A shame too, I preferred the look of the Progrise keys closed.

I don't think Faiz is next since it might compete with the SIC which wouldn't maximize their profits. I feel as if it's either Fourze, or Ryuki.

I don't see that happening given SIC's different scale and radically different design style.

SICs have always been more specialized. I doubt SHF releasing a renewal around the same time would change that in either direction.

You'd think something like that, but then you've got FRS Den-O coming out literally a month after the Seihou. I often try and predict things on this basis and every time I end up failing

Would love these guys to be announced soon. My thought is they're going to do Grand Zi-O first seeing as it's more recent, then leave Ghost Mugen to last so that people pick it up to complete the line-up of final forms, just seeing as how Ghost reported sold quite poorly.

But then I thought we'd get Hibiki Kurenai quickly after Hibiki seeing as it's a quick one to churn out, but was waaaay off there haha.

I tracked down the SHF Dragredder set because I figured Bandai would never re-release it. Really don't feel it warrants an SS remake. Ryuki on the other hand I find to be in very poor scale side by side with modern releases; very short and very thin. Poor chap is one that I desperately hope gets the renewal sooner rather than later

Renewal Faiz I would be okay with, although a painted up Figure Rise Faiz is a perfect placeholder for now

You know we all talk about Mugen and Grand but...

I don't see this guy brought up often.

Seihou Final Forms are in surprisingly short supply. Xtreme, Complete, Armed, Shining...

Not counting Wizard, OOO, Den-O and Kiva since we haven't had them around for long but the others' absence is confusing. ESPECIALLY Xtreme, like, that's W! W!

They did every other form that matters and every other Rider (ugh where's Nasca though..), but no Xtreme still?? I was really expecting that to have happened by now lol.

They also haven't done Trial or Cyclone yet, but if they'd done THOSE before Xtreme I'd be really worried...

What if you get Xtreme, but it's CycloneAccelXtreme?

ngl, I'm REALLY hoping for Gold Xtreme. It's the big W release I'd want aside from Cyclone!

Surprised it's not the Zero-One title but actually HIDEN Iintelligence instead. Does this mean we'll get one for Thouser's ZAIA Enterprise?

Bruh, a SS Gold Extreme would literally be the centerpiece of my shelf with how gorgeous those wings looked!

I'm almost hoping that when Fourze gets SS'd, we'll see a Nadeshiko because she's one of, if not, my favorite female rider suit-wise.

Probably not, since she's a movie rider, but I can hope.

That’s because a Zero-One logo was the first one made — and it just got a third order alongside this!

Yeah, but she ended up appearing in a few different films, so it's not like she's a one-off. I'd love to see that suit design get a figure, as well!

Considering they made Eternal because he's popular, Nadeshiko can have a chance. If they make New Den-O than chance can get higher.

But then again, Eternal was made because he used the Double mold so it's easy to make him, whereas Nadeshiko would need a complete overhaul because of her female figure.

But who knows, maybe Bandai wants to use that to showcase SS's female body mold.

Definitely holding out for Aqua and Nadeshiko both! ... kiiiiinda doubtful but I'd love em

If we get both of them, it'd be a miracle. Out of the two, I'd say Aqua is more likely since I think he's more of a fan-favorite.

You say that, but he's never gotten any merch beyond stuff like exclusive Sofubis and I think keychains before; while Nadeshiko's gotten an SHF and other stuff beyond that. I think Nadeshiko is more likely, though OOO' popularity and how much they've covered so far might end up paying off...



Also, SHF Upgrade is back at it again with new heads and bottles for Build Hazard! By including SmaphoWolf and Rabbit/Rabbit all in-show Hazard forms have been covered, and Rabbit/Dragon is a strange but welcome surprise too!

Bluefin Brands is doing a half off sale on figures of Ultraman X, Ginga, and Bemular today only if anyone is interested.

So, this is gonna be the year where the SHF of the main rider, Kamen Rider Saber, comes with his weapon, right?

I mean, they can't make a Kamen Rider whose motif revolves around a weapon and NOT release it with that weapon.

Somewhere, Bandai is laughing their head off

Very excited to read this thread when it turns out Saber's gimmick is that they have a dozen swords to use in their base form, and all twelve swords are only available in a Premium Bandai sword pack.

I'm gonna prep up my wallet for that.

Honestly, Saber having a form gimmick based off different saber types could be cool. If that ends up being the overall theme, of course. Base sword form. Broadsword form. Rapier form. Cutlass form. Etc.

As for Aqua's chances at a figure, I'm hoping his role in Zi-O and his clash with Eternal help his chances. I love the design.

That's so ridiculous and yet... most people would totally buy that.

If any "movie rider" is to get an SS, personally I'd want Burakawami more than anything(and with the change gimmick kept intact). After that though, yeah, Aqua would be a very welcome addition to my collection.

I need these so bad!

You can do a lot with anything in that set.

This is probably a stupid question, but for anyone who has any of the Ridewatch stands, what Tamashii Stand arm do they use? The ones I have don't seem to fit.

I have some of the act 4 type, and I think they're the older version and that's why they aren't compatible, but I'm not sure.

I just checked the one that came with Geiz and the arm from an Act 4 stage worked on it. It's the old version too.

After some quick checking, I feel... pretty dumb, honestly. Apparently the ones I have are bootleg, and while they are surprisingly solid, they aren't compatible at all with the normal stands.

I bought four of these things lol.

Can you drill some holes yourself?

To be completely fair, Tamashii stands and arms have been wildly inconsistent for me over the years. Arms from Act 3, the Sailor Moon stages,t eh Ryuki stages, and the colored Act stages would all be interchangeable, you'd think. Except for the slightest change in diameters (and occasionally peg length) means that if you pick any but the arm that came with that particular stage, you're looking at a cracked port that can no longer hold any other diameter peg.

It looks like the holes on the two character stands are actually hexagons, so I doubt it. Plus the top of the ridewatch is really close to the edge of the actual stand, which means drilling would probably be a bad idea.

Of course they are.

I noticed most of the SHF ZI-O line (aside from Geiz Revive, Ginga, and Ohma) dropped in price at Manda. So, I wonder if ZI-O Trinity would drop as well considering that it's not really a form that everyone likes.

But then, he DOES come with the Saikyo Zikan Girade.

For a sec there I thought that they made an SHF Kamen Rider Ginga lol

I expect Trinity to drop like a rock. Frankly I expect Ginga and Revive will too eventually.

I see Ohma and Grand whenever that gets released will be the only valuable releases...and that stupid bike.
