You're right, and I won’t gonna lie, I did notice the price tag too and wondered about it.

But on the other hand - sometimes good things happen? Let's wait and see. Could also be that either the title or the price tag are misprint / subjects to change.

Price tag can also be a function of how many of a figure they can make, they might just be expecting to make enough of the secondary rider that they can keep it at 6600.

Some more stuff to use for your Dark Kiva with

Nice

I had my doubts of Arabian Night getting made into a SHF because of the amount of masking they'd have to do.

But seeing certain parts of Ikazuchi and MBJR, I have a little more faith now that they'll do it.

Edit: slight tangent, is there a difference between the two Alternative/Zero SHFs? Thinking of grabbing him cuz I like the suit design.

Could be masking, or maybe it was done through tampo printing. Saikou has some really great paint apps that must have been tampo print by how small and clean it turned out. I think V-Cin Espada would be done with a similar process

The Ryuki guys? If I remember correctly they just have their respective names on the sides of their legs

The easiest way to tell the difference is that Zero has a silver 'V' on his forehead

I see... Also noticed the tubs on their shoulders are differently colored too. Super surprising a minor difference like this warranted its own release, but it was a different time, I suppose. And then again, we just got Zero-Two with Izu's proportions anyway

Probably gonna add him to my february order from Amiami once Revice comes out. If not, probably some other rider my impulse senses have taken notice to! :lol

Zero-Two has Izu’s proportions? I didn’t know that

It is labeled as "Izu Version" after all.

Carmeara is already up at the Pbandai store in Shopee. Might as well first get Trigger Dark while pre-orders of him are still up.

casually browsing Mandarake, saw Alternative Zero for $25

Hey, that's not too ba-

Arm joints are prone to cracking

It is wild coming across listings like that haha. You should see some of the DX Arcles they list

Just saw them, dang.

Weirdly enough, there doesn't seem to be any listed problems for Alternative, it's just in all of Zero's listings that says there's a deterioration problem. I'm guessing they fixed it?

I dare say there's nothing too wrong with Rising Ultimate and it looks all the better as a toy! I will die on this hill.

If anyone is looking for Hellrising Hopper and SS Super Tatoba, theyre both on amiami preowned right now

UGHHHHHHH I need both of these, but alas and lack of funds to throw away..

Revice on the 26th!

Figured they'd be end of the month. Works for me.

damn, looking good

Betting it's the lighting but the pink is lost less... Pink than I'd like.

maybe, but sometimes with the show's lighting, the suit can be quite pale

https://theglorioblog.files.wordpres..._20.56.040.jpg

okay, wow, ordered.

Yeah, the suit's tone changes based on lighting. Sometimes it's a bright, pale pink, others it's a darker orange-pink hue.

Yup I ordered a charged up version as well, glad they made this upgrade for Kiva Emperor.

I ordered the two pack. I still need to get Emperor Kiva, I missed the pre-order on that figure.

My wife has a EMS which arrives in a week but my latest EMS with Mandrake has been in acceptance stage for over a week now. Probably have for wait until the end of Chinese new year before I see any movement, hopefully

Same here with a package from AmiAmi, they switched me from DHL to EMS because it was 1000 yen cheaper, but now it’s been 4 days sitting in Japan post.
I HATE using EMS since Covid hit, it’s no longer fast OR dependable. DHL is WAYYYYYYYY Better for my tastes, since I’m INCREDIBLY IMPATIENT with the mail

Kenzan's probably the most poseable of the Saber riders, obviously. I like him, he looks great as a toy.
Something interesting I noticed is that he uses some rubber for his boots, the green part, it goes over the toe joint so that it looks seamless. He's got nice metallic green for the weapons and some sections of his body.

Not sure how long it'll last tho.

Edit: Buster is absolutely stellar! I almost regret passing on him, but since I got him for a slightly lesser price, maybe it was for the best. It's one of the few rare times where I felt the "Premium" in the Premium Bandai. Past examples were Dragonic, Thouser, and Geiz Revive :lol

He's hefty, nice gunmetal all over, proportions kinda need work (He needs more chonk!), and he has the "TARAI_YOU" style shoulders that makes sure the sculpt of the shoulders aren't broken. If one were to grab at least one figure from the Saber line as it is currently, it'd have to be Buster or Dragonic Knight.

Buster looks amazing in every video review and pictures I've seen and it's a really great suit design, so sometimes I feel the urge to buy it.

But then I remember its from Kamen Rider Saber... no wait, scratch that, "Kamen Rider Saber" doesn't exist, right? This is totally based on the wholesome Kamen Rider Buster manga, isn't it?

Heads up, apparently you can't make the shuriken mode by simply rotating the two halves. You have to get them separated first

I may or may not have found out about it the hard way...

It didn't break, since I realized it halfway through the mistake, it did scuff the tab a bit.

Kamen Rider Saber doesn?t exist? As I didn?t watch the show, am I missing something or is it just someone being Super Salty? X)

Wishful thinking.

@Topic: They are dragging out the details about Seihou Ultraman as long as possible, full reveal on Monday, pre-orders (probably) on Tuesday.

I feel the same way. Buster is the only Saber figuart I own but I've handled Saber and Blades and Buster just feels different. And yeah I would also put Geiz Revive up there with Figuarts worthy of their P-Bandai titles.

Also that rubber incorporation into Kenzan's boots is amazing. It really works as I think his legs really stand out on the suit design.

I'm debating on scooping up Dragonic. It's the only other Saber figure I wouldn't mind having, but there's other priority ones I want to pick up first.

Realized I had about $250 that I'd never transferred out between some payments apps, so I'm thinking about getting some figuarts off Mandarake. Got a couple ideas, maybe all four Blade Riders and their bikes (Or just Tachibana-San's packed in bike. Not sure yet) or ZO, Doras, and Build RabbitDragon, or even some random mix to keep it all in one store to save shipping. Any suggestions going on what's in stock right now?
