Nothing to be honest. Honestly I may go all in to get the riders, but I don't care that much for the contract beasts. The only one I'd probably ever get would be Genocider.

Honestly if you never pay retail the aftermarket on RAH is a lot better than figuarts though(as in they almost always get cheaper instead of increase in price). Just never pay retail and limit the figures to one or two a season.

For example if I got the figuart version of Den-o I'd be tempted to get all of them and spend a lot more than the $60 PBM Den-O sword form I got to represent such an enjoyable serries.

Same with W where I got PBM Skull for $80 and am content with him being my one W figure.

TLDR I spend less money collecting Medicom figures than I would of collecting Figuarts

That is the RAH? It looks a lot like the Figma, I thought RAH were lower quality figures? But even that looks better than the Figuart.

I think the cheapest one I've seen on Mandarake is Kickhopper. And for $80, I'd probably buy it since I like Kickhopper's design a lot. Of course I still plan on getting the figuart. RAHs/PBMs to me would be the type of figures I'd want a shelving unit with a door for, that way there is no chance of them getting messed up that much.

Mandrake(and YahooAuctions and ebay) has lots that are listed in the $20-$50 range but they are the really old ones when Medicom figures has more brittle bodies so I have never tried to order any of them. (That and for showa riders I much prefer the sleeker look of figuarts due to not having the outfits made of fabrick XP )

Sure RAH/PBM aren't the type of figures you would mess around with a lot but since I get just more long term enjoyment looking at my coolly posed figures than messing around with them that doesn't really bother me\.

I think we strolled way OFF TOPIC here guys, this just says S.H. FIGUARTS NOT what everyone's preferences are for Kamen Rider figures with high-end articulation, damnit Locke you caused a fucking derailment . JK on the blaming Locke thing .

[Locke]

Haha sorry team.

[XW1n5t0nX]

You're right. We got on a long ass ramble. Let's get this back to SHFs. Here, I have a picture I took of Kuuga for my photo shoot earlier.

[KR Blade King Form]

Nice shot of Mighty Form dude . Also don't sweat horribly derailing the thread Locke, I've derailed discussions on a Facebook group before . I'm seriously gonna be pissed that I gotta wait till tomorrow till my order of Kyoryu Red, Blade Ace Form, & Garren Ace Form with Red Rhombus Ships, I wish I had added Blue Spader, but I royally fucked that one up .

[XW1n5t0nX]

I'm going to take my time with the Blade ones. Though the minute Amazon has Leangle up for pre-order I'm grabbing him. I'll probably end up pre-ordering Chalice as well since I still have time to do so.
