Bandai does love their Web Exclusives, don't they.

Aaaand no Zikan Grade. It's also pretty worrying that no images appear to show a combined sword mode; that would be a massive mis-step.
I'm very confused about the price with this low an accessory count. That's about as costly as Seihou OOO, what on earth is justifying this? |

The web exclusives wouldn't be so bad if you lived in Japan, but for us international customers, the idea of having to purchase a bike for a frikkin' weapon is ridiculous due to the shipping costs and other crap we have to pay for.

Another great looking figure ruined by the lack of much needed weapons
Stop this crap already. |

I wanna pre-order this. It's my favorite Zi-O form, it's used often enough that I'd be able to use it as my "main" Zi-O...but the lack of combined weapon, the still missing detail on the Ridewatches and the general "meh" response he and the show get make me tempted to wait and see if I could grab him used off AmiAmi or Mandarake at the end of the year for a much better price.
Thoughts? |

The bike has an abstracted version of his mask on it. The Saikyou Gilade has his mask on it. I... am not a fan of this aesthetic choice. The only weapon that doesn't have his mask on it is the one that would require me to purchase a bike I don't want and don't have space for.
I'm starting to think we won't see anything like a satisfying release for new Riders anymore; Bandai will save it for the inevitable Shinkocchou Seihou version. I'll settle for being pleased that at least some people will be excited about this Zi-O II release. I can't help but look at it as the inevitable early-series upgrade form that almost immediately gets replaced. No, wait. That was Decade Armor. I can't even keep up. |

This is my favourite form of Zi-O and I hate to see it done just this badly. |

Kinda sorta unrelated to the topic but this figure made me remember how much I hate the fact that they are ignoring the Future Riders so hard.
Considering there's no obvious black repaint in the show yet Shinobi could be this year’s Tamashii Nations event exclusive, but man, I want all of them. Much more than any other Zi-O suit. |
