Hate to be technical but Black RX is a Heisei era rider actually. :p

Why?

He was produced during the Heisei period.

Saw this at a shop in Hong Kong

I blame the form changing gimmick...

Technically he's both - the show started during the Showa era but ended during the Heisei. Officially, though, Black RX, Shin, ZO, and J are all counted as Showa Riders.

Got my first Figuarts Kamen Rider and my first SIC KT. Very pleased with both, though moreso the KT as it fits in with the majority of my collection (4"ish scale).

Can't wait to get more KTs and hope they more more of my favorites.

Bad picture, I know. Used my iPhone and it's pretty dark in my room, so..
That was the best I could do. Sorry if it's not clear enough~!

Amazing isn't it? To think, Bandai Japan can do an incredible job on their Kamen Rider figures, but then you have Bandai America doing what they should have just called Blundercats. I mean, why does their Japanese side care about quality when their US side doesn't give two flying ****s about it? Imagine how amazing the Thundercats woudl look if they were made by Bandai Japan. There would be no screws on the back, correctly colored joints, and faces that look natural. I mean, every time I look at that Lion-O on my shelf, I keep thinking that I should get him a litter box.

Indeed. But you do need to keep in mind the audience. Stuff here is really catered to children that tend to break things. Why make something nice if it will be broken? I really do not like the argument I make, but I use it to calm myself down from the same frustration you're feeling.
