It's actually ALL about lighting. In person and in normal light, it's too dark. Make it bright enough, and it becomes better. I compared it to actual on screen footage, and the metallic nature of the suit caused it to be highly varying in terms of color based on lighting.

That's awesome! I am a little surprised at the Shurikenger on the back but then I realized that it comes from a different toy line.

But still strongly hope Bandai will release it this year.

Ok, I actually forgot to take a picture of just the seeds I got today, so here's a pic of my whole collection.

New ones are: Kabuto, Momotaros, Blade, Kiva, Agito, and Faiz.

I weep for the beauty of that image. Of course, now I want to start buying lock seeds.

You're right! S.H.Figuarts Hurricanger series look awesome together

Yeah, Contrast on that picture is kinda stronger than real one. The real figure has more brighter color

It is. I mentioned this in the Figuarts thread, too. When in extremely bright light she looks sort of the right colour, but Hurricane Blue is supposed to be very light blue. The Figuart is definitely much lighter then previous blues, but its not quite light enough.

Acquired my first Gokaiger S.H. Figuart yesterday.

Awesome sauce Shima! Man, you guys are making me jealous. Went and got Dukemon instead of the Gouraigers as planned, and now he has a broken right shoulder peg. I've yet to contact IA to see if they'll do anything to help. Otherwise, I'm SOL.......shoulda got those Gouriagers. Goes to show, never bet against a ninja....

Lighting really hurt my MMPR Pink Ranger. It showed me how off a lot of her joints were in color from each other. >_<
