Toeihero.net Exclusive Figuarts Zero Aquarius Zodiarts
 

Toeihero.net has just posted up the latest in it's series of exclusive Figuarts Zero figures. This time it's the Aquarius Zodiart from Kamen Rider Fourze!

This figure is scheduled for release in September and will run you 3990 yen. Be sure to contact your favorite web exclusive middlemen to secure your Aquarius Zodiart.

Again with this. I don't understand Bandai's logic in what gets made into a Zero and what gets made into a true Figuart. Aquarios was a major plot point later in the series, yet they decide to once again make an important Zodiart into a Zero. Like Ares and Cancer. I just don't understand this. I'd buy her instantly if she was a Figuart, but a Zero? No interest.

You're giving her too much credit. Aquarius as a character wasn't THAT important to the plot and it makes perfect sense to make her a Zero. Giving all 12 Zodiarts proper figures was never gonna happen.

She was alot less useless then some of the ones we are getting as Figuarts. I know they can't make all twelve into articulated figures, I just wish I knew the decision making process for what they're choosing for Zeros. "Fans want Ares... Zero! Cancer... mm.. Zero! Orion? OH he's a Figuart!"

Scorpio, Libra, Virgo, Leo and Sagittarius? :eyebrow
Nope, she's definitely less useless than all the ones that got proper figures.

Not questioning them as Figuarts.

Then what are you questioning, you said

Those are the only ones getting Figuarts.

And that's still wrong. Atleast Ares deserves to be Figuarted. He was a major plot point.

Dude the rest were insignificant characters used for freaking 2 episode arcs. They were vastly unimportant compared to the recurring ones. The only one I'm upset about is Cancer. Even THEN, I understand. The sales numbers for Scorpio as a mass releases were terrible and Libra, Virgo, and Leo didn't sell well either as exclusives. They promised to do all 12 of them. They're delivering to fans in that regard. But releasing them as full figuarts just isn't as cost effective since they don't sell.

Well I can't help but wonder about that because these SHFZs seem to be priced exactly the same as a normal Tamashi Web exclusive Figuarts…would it have costed that much more to just install joints in the figure?
