First time poster. I just opened the Kamen Rider Ghost figure a few minutes ago. My first Kamen Rider figure ever!

Anyways, if you want to go for the hoodless look and full articulation, there's a cheat that I think was intentional.

You can pop off the front parts of the jacket (which include the shoulder pieces permanently attached) from the back of the jacket.

Then, you can attach these front pieces directly onto the shoulders of the base figure.

As mentioned in previous threads, you can pop off the mask/helmet from the hood, and secure it directly onto the base figure's head.

The result is full head articulation, no hood, and much more freedom everywhere else.

Yes, his back is "naked", but you can get a lot of great photography/display angles where you can't even see that the back is missing. If you look at him straight on, it's impossible to tell.

I hope this helps some people enjoy these figures more. It made a night and day difference for me!
