The blades switch so it can be holstered.

Not insulting anybody or anything, but I find it puzzling that so many people don't seem to instantly get the purpose of the two blades. That's, like, Figuarts' MO. Multiples of weapons representing different stages of use.

I guess it's a cheap way to pad their stuff as well, for characters like Kou known for a single weapon.

And an accessory hand that allows you to reanact all the time Kou grabbed Lin's boobs.

They could have burned down the internet by including an alternate head of Tommy Oliver.

And if they ever release Rin, include a head that has a shocked expression.

How does one have a shocked expression when your head is in a helmet? Or go you mean a head that looks like Natsuki Takahashi?

The original DX Byakkoshinken toy could also extend its blade, apparently, so I'm not sure if that's the only reason or if it did extend and shorten and it was just never focussed on so nobody noticed it.

In fact, rewatching a few scenes of Dairanger, the blade being shortened as Kou and lengthened when Kiba Ranger is fighting definitely seems to be the case, it was just never pointed out.

One of the few roleplay toys from PR I've touched, so I'd actually have been pretty confused if this figure didn't have some way to replicate this. I really don't get why people are surprised... Like Split said, this is the kind of thing SHFs do.

I'm a huge White Ranger fan from back in the day, so very much looking forward to this -- especially having him posed next to Green Ranger on the shelf!

And like the Dragonranger/Green Ranger release, the Akibaranger parts mean less than nothing to me; I was unable to secure a Japanese release of Kiba Ranger so I am all-in and fully on-board for my US White Ranger figure.
