[Oh that?s terrible once you see it.

I guess on the bright side, if SHF upgrade ever release a Goldon Momotaro kit, you have a prime figure to add those parts to.

You might be able to salvage it with a pose with the gun or sword blocking that misaligned emblem. Mine is posed like that:

Exactly

He had some schmutz on him too, once I got that off I was like "Now he's perfect!"

...

"Wait a second..."

That's - a fantastic idea actually! Hadn't thought of that!

I bought two when he went up, at this point I just hope the second one turns out better.

At least I saw it this time! I had my Ginga on display for months before I noticed they forgot to paint the silver lines on his abs

Otherwise Don Momotaro looks really, really cool though, still hope my second copy came out better QC-wise.

I was so ready to write praises about Sentai SHFs scoring another homerun though

Managed to secure a 50th Rider 2 that just came in today -- very lovely figure, but one that makes me realise that going by V3 and Original Colours #1 the rest of the 7 are likely going to have wired mufflers -- so Rider 2 and Amazon's plastic mufflers are likely gonna stand out a little among them

First Tamashii Nations 2022 leaks are happening since they started preparing the venue, Geats and SS Ultraman Dyna.

Geats confirms its Boost & Magnum-form, the Magnum buckle looks fairly detailed too which is nice. Oh, and the gun is there. Didn't doubt that myself but with Tamashii you never know.

[ShiShiLeo]

If the SHF of Geats comes in at $40 like the previous 2 main riders, it's gonna be such a good value

[Henshinmorph917]

I honestly see the possibility of Geats taking up both retail slots if we get two slots whether it be in the form of Boost/Magnum or the entry form. I just started binging a few episodes but the remaining Riders scream Premium Bandai releases to me including Buffa despite him having a standard Raise buckle form already since the beginning. You know they got to make purple Riders exclusive lol

I would love to see Tycoon Ninja get that retail slot but I don't know if Bandai was already working on his figure ahead of time just like Geats

[Kurona]

If Boost/Magnum is happening, that's something that screams Premium Bandai to me. I could see the second retail slot not being Tycoon Ninja but only if it's going to Buffa Zombie
