After finishing Den-O I, like any self-respecting Rider fan, immediately let my obsession carry me to the popular online sites in search of Den-O stuff for me to buy, mostly Zeronos. My search led me to this little piece, and research has led me to discover it is from Souchaku Henshin, a pre-figuarts line I've heard mentioned. Problem is, I know next to nothing about the particular Zeronos here, as video reviews are non-existent on YouTube. From what I know of the rest of SH is that these are not as detailed as figuarts and are closer to standard "toys." Reasonably accurate and posable to no extremes, but not as streamlined or display-attractive as a figuart, but engineered better for actual handling. I was hoping I could get some word of mouth (and pics if I can, I can only seem to find images of it in box) on Zeronos, though. I mean, for that price I'm practically willing to impulse buy it.

Souchaku Henshin is the "proto-figuarts" line that made most things from Kuuga-Kiva. They have slightly fewer joints, more diecast, and their main feature being that the armor can come off(earlier figures had teeny tiny heads under the helmets). They got best near the end I hear. The figures before Den-O(or was it Kabuto?) had only single joints in the elbows and knees.

The ones during Den-O and Kiva are gonna be closest to S.H.Figuarts. Anything prior to that will have the hilarious shrunken heads

Cool, I didn't know they were actually like proto-figuarts. So what about the figure I mentioned, Zeronos? Any specifics on it? He's the one I can't find reviews on.

The Souchaku Henshin's probably why it took them so long to release Sword Form and why we haven't gotten any of Kiva's base forms yet, the figures were close enough to Figuarts as it was.

So, Zeronos?

I have the Sword Form of Den-O from the Souchaku Series & I like it; its very close to the on-screen design and its pretty fun (doesn't have quite as much articulation as a Figuart but its got plenty of good movement) although some of the smaller armor bits can pop off easily.

I'd imagine Zeronos would be very similar.

You should just buy the Figuart instead.

But there's no Figuart of Vega From.
