The bikes to me are essential to the characters mythos. Without the ride, what's a rider at a core concept level? Maybe it's my OCD but I just can't connect the dots between owning the rider and having no appreciation for the bikes.
I get that a lot of them rarely use their bikes if at all, but to me the figure feels incomplete without one. I'd like to have the proper bike for every one of my riders if possible. Selling them in 2-pack is the ideal strategy to me.

The only one I think would be essential would be Ichigo's.

Selling them in 2-pack is the ideal strategy to me. I feel it's the same situation with the Contract Beasts. I'd argue that Ryuki, Knight, Zolda, Ouja, and Imperer are all Riders who should come with their Contract Beasts because they're important to each of those characters, but financially, it's better for me that I can drop the $30 on Ouja now then get the Genocider set at a later date, so that way I don't have to drop that much money all at once (which is what I did; purchased Ouja way back in 2012 and didn't get Genocider until 2 months ago). I do think there should be the option for those that want to get the Rider + Bike and/or Contract Beast and other relevant accessory though. But I don't know how profitable it'd be in the end. Yup, it sucks waiting for Femme's release tbh. Despite how crap the Figma may be, I'm almost tempted to get Siren because once Imperer gets in, it's going to feel weird knowing that my Ryuki collection is literally one Rider away from completion.

I'm of the mind that we should have the choice. It's only right. But I'll just say this: it is called Kamen Rider.

At least Gaim gives an alternate reasoning behind the name.

The biggest, DekaYellow and DekaPink should've come with Murphy. It is absolutely unforgivable that ads had them with him and then they skipped him. Also, what the heck is up with DekaYellow and DekaPink not coming with SP Licence holding hands? Bizarre. ShinkenRed or Princess ShinkenRed should've come with the Rekka Daizanto Bazooka Mode. If not that, they should've given us two Double Discs with Princess so we could take advantage of now having two Daizantos. Hyper Shinken Red needed a Kyoryumaru with an extended blade. I love the beautiful figure, but the extending blade was the whole point on the form. The core Zyurangers needed to all have their Ranger Guns, Swords and Slingers. It is bizarre that they got cut and very cheap of them. Ryuranger needed his Dairen Rod without its Spear Extension. He used the Dairen Rod every single episode, but only used the Extension maybe once in Dairanger and once in Gokaiger. All the core Kyoryugers should come with their Gaburicannons, especially Blue. Hurricane Blue and Yellow needed the combined cannon. Its weird that the Gouraigers gave us theirs but the other three missed out. Hurricane Red should've come with Shurikenger's bat. The entire point on the vest in Akibaranger was that it let him use it, so why did they include the vest and not the bat? The Gouraigers likewise should've had their Akibaranger Jakanja vests. The vests were exactly the same as the Shurikenger vest but with a different symbol so its almost like they were planned to have them, but instead they got cut, which sucks. All three core Hurricanegers deserved their Hayatemaru in gun modes. It sucks that they're missing. The Gouraigers could've come with their Ikazuchimaru in Moon Mode. Not REALLY important, but its weird they both came with Cross Mode but no Moon Mode. Seriously, so much anger: Last edited by Starscream Gaga; 04-19-2014 at 10:44 PM.. |

I'm shocked that neither Red Hawk or Black Condor came with the Beak Smasher.

My only complaint with the accessories they have come with is why the hell does Black Condor have red pieces for his glove when they are black in the show?
