As much as I love Ryuki to death I think posing them next to each other makes Blade look ridiculously detailed. I missed the two Spade insignias on his neck first time handling him. They really went crazy with the detail on this guy.

And to my surprise the absence of diecast was a plus. Ryuki as a figure was an indication of improvement in Figuarts. Blade is one of its better payoffs.

Incidentally I picked up the re-issue Ryuki which came out around the same time as Ryuga. The Silver on the reissue is much more striking and the overall paint is better. Anyone looking to get Ryuki, try looking for the recent reissue. Slight difference in the head sculpt (the grill details are a little thicker but better applied than the first) but everything else in the package is included.
