I got the shinkocchou version. Honestly I’m pretty surprised by how hollow and cheap the figure feels and I’m trying to figure out if what I got is a knock off or not. It looks nice but it doesn’t feel anything like how I’d imagine a $70 figure would feel. And since this is my first figuarts I don’t have a frame of reference for how they’re supposed feel. But visually it looks legit so I figure this is just how it is

To my knowledge, a knock off of Shadow Moon does not exist, and for obvious reasons, knock-off companies tend to stay away from figures with rubbery parts.
In terms of the price, well value is going to be relative. SHF and Seihous in particular are considered some of the best figures in the industry, and often fetch ridiculous prices in the aftermarket because of this. People love Hot Toys figures which cost anywhere from $200 to $500 a figure, and while SHF are not that level of quality, I prefer the value of an SHF by a large margin.

Not really sure what qualifies as feeling dense or lightweight either, since that might be subjective.
Went to pick up my SS ShadowMoon to see if he felt really light or "hollow" but he has a tiny bit of density to him. At least to me he does.

I checked online, and RAH Zero-One was released just last year, so probably not?

The RAH line has always caught my attention but I'm not trying to go down the 1/6th scale rabbit-hole but yeah those Kamen Rider figures are a beauty just like Hot Toys

oh yeah I remember being able to see a RAH Gatack in person. It was incredible. Something about the Kabuto line translated super well to larger scales.

I think if you've only ever handled Hasbro 6" figures like Marvel Legends or Black Series then SHFs will definitely feel lightweight by comparison.
