I'm always torn between the gimmick figures and the SHF. Yeah, the figuarts look worlds better, and the articulation is top notch. Problem is up until Drive ( or Fourze) they couldn't replicate the gimmick of the show. I love the Gaim SHF, but there armor series was so great. Torn.

Here the items change from ghosts to hoodies and attach. That looks really cool to me. I really like how in ghost mode the shoulder pieces hang down like tattered cloth, and there is a slight tail on the back end to make it look ghostly. If they can figure out how to do the changes for the figuarts I'll be in heaven. They nailed tires and modules, so my fingers are crossed.

The gimmick figures are pretty good articulation-wise, I own two from the TK-series and I was surprised to see just how articulated they are. But honestly I will only buy gimmick-figures now if I like the look of them and they don't hinder articulation because of the gimmick.

Here the ghost mantle is obviously too big because the gimmick has to work, same with the armor on the AC-guys, and no head articulation is just an absolute no-go for me.

I'm still gonna get the gimmick line I think, I say this because when the AC line was first shown I thought Orange Arms looked stupid and bulky but when it comes in hand it was actual such a pleasant toy that I fell down the rabbit hole. I think the same is gonna happen with this.

Plus considering they're actually making the Ghost clothing thing a part of the toy's gimmick makes me think we're gonna get some Senketsu type movement going on.

One thing I'm not worried about is the head movement.

After seeing Edison form's shoulders, I'm all in for Newton. It's just a better all around suit.

[Dr Kain]

I honestly don't even get how the gimmick is supposed to work.

[Shin Densetsu]

Love seeing how the gimmick is integrated similarly to past lines. It's pretty innovative without compromising articulation. I love how BOJ is able to pull that off consistently. I am very behind on Kamen Rider but I might take a look at Ghost when it premieres.

It appears as if we are to fold up the parts hanging off the sleeves to complete the shoulders. Then fold up the face by pulling the horn from its down position. The whole thing is supposed to simulate a ghost transforming into these hoodies. Once those steps are done, we can slide the hoodie over the base figure and we're done.

[MaskedRiderAsakura]

It depends on the show for me. I'd probably get the base figure and some accessory packs for the sake of having alternate forms, but for new characters and upgrade forms I mostly rely on Figuarts.

I want for somehow the gangan gun and sabre combine with all of the animals.
