Do they hold up well? LIke, am I going to be able to display a rider doing a kick or is it not strong enough to keep a pose like that?

Each of the joints on a tamashii stage have a screw that you manually tighten as much as you like to hold those heavier poses like that. But they do work perfectly for it

Just don't over-tighten it, those clear plastic will crack

Redid my Red Medals by painting the indents black then respraying with the clear red over it

My second Figuarts has arrived - Shadow Moon:












He is pretty cool, but I have to say I like Black more. This guy just feels way too fragile to the point that I do not think I am going to display him out of the box. Everything from his antennae to his hands, to the hips, the falling off knee caps, and finally, the hard plastic hopper spurrs really hurt my wanting to touch him. I was making sure I moved every piece in slow motion when I took these pictures because I did not want something breaking off him. Even the peg pieces that you stick into the hands feel fragile. I am happy to have him though and am now debating on who will be my next Rider. Maybe I'll try to hunt down either 555 or Kabuto since they do not seem to sell as high as others do.

Faiz is OK, but not the most stand out...I would go for Kabuto and/or Kickhopper.

I would love to get the Hoppers to be displayed as Shadow Moon's guards, but when I looked at them online, Kick was like $55 and Punch was $100.

And that's after the fairly recent reissues. The Hoppers can get crazy expensive.

Eh, Kick Hopper was all over Mandarake last week or two for 2500 yen. I ordered one, but not having made it that far in the series, I don't know if I'll keep it. Guess I should keep watching Kabuto.
