That's a good rule. BBTS is a massive scam when it comes to Kamen Rider merch, in my honest opinion. Even when they run sales to desperately get rid of overstock, it's really difficult to justify buying from them.

I would honestly just wait and grab this set on the aftermarket. As much as I love SO-DO and appreciate the effort that Bluefin put in to be able to sell this to us, you could buy all 3 of those characters in Figuarts form right now, secondhand, and it would only be slightly more expensive. All 3 of them are less than 30 USD, each. The whole appeal of SO-DO, for me, is each figure basically costs less than 10 USD. As high quality as they are, I find that 3 candy toy figures for 80 USD is kind of nuts.

Aside from a very select few boxes, I've never had issues getting my hands on Premium Bandai exclusive SO-DO boxes on the aftermarket. I'm gonna wait and see what happens. If I miss out, I'm not a huge fan of the 3 Energy Riders anyways lol

Edit: Does anyone know why my attachments always get rotated sideways? How do I fix that?
