I never said it couldn't, but like both Switchblade and Snowfall said Figuarts weapons that need pegs and such tend to come as two different versions. There's been no precedent for combining weapons at that scale AFAIK.

The entire Howling Cannon is about the size of either the Deka Wappers of Jet Winger on their own.

Any word on a release or price for the Malshiina figure? Any other sightings of the Akibarangers without the helmets?

Oh man that Femme looks so good...but I dunno. Is it just me or has Figuarts yet to master the art of White plastic? I'm basing this solely on my experience with Fang/Joker and Fourze. Has there been any other mostly-white Figuarts on the market that doesn't seem off?

Eternal? Weather Dopant? The Jetman SHF have large white sections that are nice and bright. Likewise Wild Tiger and Sky High from Tiger & Bunny.

I think Fourze is off because it's meant to be mostly white leather, which isn't usually bright white anyway. Kind of off white.

That's true. I'm guessing Eternal was mostly Glossy White similar to Fang/Joker right? That would be the best white to go with Femme methinks. The Pearl White on Tiger wouldn't suit the aesthetics for Ryuki I would say.

I'm not sure what to think. The QC for Ryuki figuarts has been top-notch thus far. But White on a black base body seems like there is room for some unfortunate QC hiccups. That head sculpt is sexy though. Just wish they had her standing next to a male buck to she how she scales.

Honestly, this is for every toy company. Mattel's MOTUC characters that utilize what turn out to be more of a grayish white than straight up white.
