Some extra info too. Murasame is the only new Sentai reveal so far; Gokai Red is confirmed to be a Seihou and is based on 3D body scans like Tiga, Dyna and Ultraman; and Riderman was shown again with his rope arm -- which is made of actual rope. He's also confirmed to have a wired muffler like V3

I assume the focus and extra info on Gokai Red and Riderman means we might be seeing them go up for pre-order in the next few months. Timing would make sense too

SS Gokai Red means I can retire my original Gokai Red that has loose hips. Haha. Also I think I want Ultraman Jack from the Netflix/Anime series. Haven't been keeping up with Kamen Rider since Saber so I'm not as excited but the Geats stuff looks good.

Only really interested in that Vice and Lovekov set for Lovekov, but since she's plastic, leaning on 'no', since she needs to be soft and plushy for maximum accuracy. Destream, on the other hand, is a must-have for me because he is great (even if he only appears in two episodes and the movie).

The Geats line is looking fantastic, and I love that they're putting in the effort to make it so that they're all swappable. Downside is that the Riders besides Geats are definitely going to be P-Bandai exclusives. Wonder how they'll handle Beats and Na-Go since she's got a different frame due to being female.

Since we got hints of Ultimate Revice and Xross Saber, those are also going to be must-haves. Wonder if we'll get Juuga and the V-Cinema forms of Live, Evil, and Demons though. And if Xross Saber means we won't be getting Falchion.

The Geats-line is looking amazing so far, love the gimmick! I have no complaints or nitpicks at all. Will grab Geats, the Entry Form and Buffa for sure.

Finally, Ark-One! I wanted this one for a long time now, so glad to see it happening and the prototype is looking fantastic!

If I have to critique this year's event, there's no real "huge" surprise in there, at least for me. The reveals are great, but nothing mind-blowing.

Yeah plastic Lovekov doesn't work for me. I have the plushy, that one rules. Of course it's out of scale with SHF, but it looks amazing.

About that one - I love the design and the character, but the suit has no relevance for me whatsoever. I think I wait for Kamen Rider Vail instead.

[Henshinmorph917]

Yeah I don't understand the accessories they opted for with this Lovekov and Vice set...like why would they not include weapons for Jeanne and/or Demons?

A Vail Demons driver is unwanted to me but part of me thinks this set is meant to have each Rider's Demon represented since Kagaro/Evil already was done and they just showed off DeStream. Having Vice and Jack Revice molds now does open the door to both Vail and KR Vail repaints.

Sure would be nice to see some of these announced Rider Figuarts on the US P-Bandai store.

I agree with you on the reasoning for including the vail driver: it?s like including the demon of Kamen Rider Demons. I also agree with you that Bandai probably thought Kagerou was covered by Kamen Rider Evil being an SHF.

However, if I may put on my attorney?s hat: Kamen Rider Vice already existed as an SHF, and we are still getting Vice (unhenshined) as an SHF. Kamen Rider Evil is like Kamen Rider Vice. We need the unhenshined Kamen Rider Evil! Break out the guyliner, pay the actor for his facial capture!! This set is incomplete without Kagerou!

[Henshinmorph917]

Oh for sure I thought of that as well in regards to technically Kagerou being a Demon that can henshin but knoew Bandai will overlook it because it would require likeness rights and not worth the gamble

[Rabbitman]

It would be hilarious if they made Kagerou (that’s why I would sincerely tell Bandai to do it), but I can’t imagine anyone wanting such a figure. Or, not many people wanting such a figure.

I guess it is also hilarious to just get a loose demons driver too, though. Bandai is still serving up some comedy

I'll never consider the line truly complete until we get a figure of Ichijo.

But am I getting these Rising figures? Of course I am!
