SHODO Kamen Rider VS (New 4" line)
 

After the success of the SHODO line for Dragon Ball, Bandai is expanding the line to include Kamen Rider with SHODO Kamen Rider VS. Each figure is about 100mm (3.94inches) and will be built like the NEO SHODO Dragon Ball figures. The first set of four will be released in September and retail for 500 yen per figure. It will be available in cases of 10 online (like most candy toy toylines).

I have seen some of the Dragonball figures and they looked pretty solid. Nothing for me though.

I might try and track down X and Geist, but that'll depend partly on what the figures themselves look like.

I'll have to see the X Figure because that intrigues me as well as Apollo Geist. That Ichigou looks beautiful though.

Cool for those who love 4 inch figures. Me, I've moved away from those sizes and will stick with Figuarts.

... Nah.

Unless they do Gaim, Blade, Fourze, or Knight.

Definitely interested in this; I've missed my 4" figure line since SIC KT died.

I wonder if these will fit in well with Motion Revive.

I won't be picking these up, but that Rider-1 looks damn good for a candy toy.

So what exactly are SHODOs? I've never heard of them until now.

They are rather well sculpted, painted and articulated candy toys, about 4 inches tall. They did some fairly good looking Dragonball candy-toys (amongst other things) in the past, you could look those up for reference.

4" is a good size for my collection -- if I can get them, I would pick up Hongo and V3. I would assume we would get a reprint of Rider 1 as Rider 2 at some point to complete the trifecta.

Remember the old Motion Revive figures were candy toys.

They were? I had no idea.

OH MY, those look directly up my alley! I will definitely have to track those down, no question.

These look pretty cool, I've kind of been wanting to get into a new 4" line. I might pick some of these up when they do some Heisei Riders.

Yahoo! More 4 inch rider goodness is always a good thing, and the Shodo toys always looked neat.
Hope it last for a long while.

It's been awhile, but I believe they either came with a piece of gum, or the typical sugar tablet.

They do look really great. They are pretty articulated for that size.

With a price like that, they are hard to resist. It's good we're getting affordable figures with a good amount of details and articulation. Does anyone know where these will be sold?

I would imagine at the regular old places to get candy and non candy toys (AmiAmi, HLJ, CS Toys, etc).

AmiAmi has the case up for preorder already. AmiAmi's price is 4200 yen for the case of 10, or 420 yen per figure. Not bad.

Very not bad.

Will there be any way to get these individually? I don't really need four figures and six duplicates.

CSToys and Itcamefromjapan are the only two places I can think of that sells candy toys singly like this outside of Ebay.

New images of the other figures.

Damn those look amazing.

Oh, man, I need that X. And probably Apollo Geist.

Totally getting these if I can get them outside of the case.

Bandai announced Part 2 is coming and the first revealed is Riderman.
