Is Abyss a Ryuki Figuart? Or perhaps a Blade Figuart? Or maybe he's a Decade Figuart? The answer is that he's a Ryuki Figuart, obviously! But that doesn't mean you can't display him with Blade or Decade if you want to.

Kamen Rider Abyss, is character that appeared on the Alternate Ryuki world in Decade, but then ended up being an Undead from the Alternate Blade world. Or something like that, I'd have to watch those episodes again to be sure.

But what I am sure of, is that Abyss is an amazing figure. Coming in a Ryuki style box, and sporting the amazingly designed and amazingly executed Ryuki body, Figuarts Abyss is a figure you shouldn't miss.

For accessories, Abyss includes:
a stand (matching the style of the stands that have come with the Ryuki Figuarts)
four Advent cards (Advent, Strike Vent, Sword Vent, and Final Vent; and again with the Ryuki ties)
Abyss Saber (two wicked serrated swords)
Abyssmash (the green shark head thing for Strike Vent)
Abyss Visor (the blue shark thing)
and a plethora of hands, 5 pairs and one extra right hand, to be exact (all repaints of Ryuki's, I believe).

The paint on this figure is amazing! Though it shares the same body as the other Ryuki Figuarts, it has significantly more paint apps. The ribbed parts on the calves, hips, forearms and biceps are painted silver, which really makes Abyss stand out from the rest of the Ryukis. The lighter metallic blue is gorgeous, the dark blue adds great depth do it, and the white and silver highlights are really eye catching.

Of course, each Ryuki Figuart has unique molded parts for the chest, back, shoulders and helmet, and Abyss' are quite neat, particularly the gold teeth on the shoulder armor, the overlapping scale-like bits on his back, and especially the helmet.

I highly recommend everybody get this figure if you haven't already, it doesn't matter if you're not a fan of Decade, Blade or Ryuki, it's just a solid, fun, and expressive figure. Something about it makes me want to take silly pictures with it, so I have been.

So, what do YOU think of SH Figuarts Abyss? I look forward to reading your comments!
