He doesn't have much problem in that department considering his design, but it's a comparison.

Then where is the "SHF standard" Saber?

This is my issue here -- in terms of a collector's grade figure of Saber, this is as good as it's going to get; and it's a figure with a terrible Ridebook, a joke of a sword, a static cloak, the need to swap out friggin' hand guards, and basically no accessories. This is as good as it's ever going to get, and it's just... okay, barely distinct in quality from a model kit; which is not the standard I expect from a line proclaiming itself as the collector figure line with no other option around.

I'd be fine with this if there were say, another version of Saber being sold at a higher price point with extra accessories and all those issues fixed - perhaps take a cue from Figma's 'DX' releases? - but as-is all there is is this one, and it's just a little pathetic compared to the sort of quality we know this line is capable of.
