How are the Arms Change figures? I am a fan of Figuarts and are definitely getting the Gaim ones of them, I was just wondering how these are?

They are great. Considering they are the 'budget line', they are really really high quality, well articulated, well painted, they come with all the right accessories.

My only real disappointment is there is a sense about them that the creators are just making it up as they go. Although it is not massive, there is still a noticeable difference between the quality of Baron and that of Gaim. And where some armours transform very satisfyingly, and present a nice clean streamlined appearance on the figure much like the show, other armours basically just plop on top of the figure with barely any folding or transforming to tidy up the appearance and look kinda crappy. You could argue it doesn't matter, and maybe it doesn't, but however you display your ACs always make sure no one can see the back as the whole image is ruined.

Thinking of getting Suika Arms or the Driver and it's not an easy decision...

Must get the DX Rider Lockseeds...And the Legend Riders arms...but first AC figures...Why must Ryugen cost so much on Amazon and Ebay?! Cause everytime he pops up on Mandarake, I don't have the cash >_<

But I did get my DX Budou Lockseed in today ^_^. Been clicking it over and over

If you haven't seen the Mandarake prices, as of last night Gaim and Baron fetch 3500-4000 yen now! That's crazy for a gimmick line. I even saw a Ryugen last night for 2800. And here I'd considered picking up extras to display all the Arms changes separately.
