[Chasing]

I don't think RKF will skip Primitive Dragon. I think they've learned from the RKF Zero-One line what works and what doesn't work. For RKF Saber they've definitely learned that playability and gimmicks are a HUGE plus, especially when it does not hinder the articulation too much. It's insane that the Hybrid Rise Zero-One figure was such a disaster that you can only find it at a third of its original price, yet Dragonic Knight and Saikou use the same gimmick and just pull it off better. I think they'll keep this up whenever they can.

Honestly, it's such a big shame that they skipped Shining Hopper. I was PRAYING we'd get an armor swap gimmick, but the figure didn't even come with weapons. A lot of RKF Zero-One releases were such a disaster, IMO. I do love the Zero-Two and Ark-Zero/Ark-One releases, though.

They've come a really long way since the horrible Ride Armors in RKF Zi-O.
