Ryuki and Blade needed this way more than Gaim did.

A Banana Gaim for the lady of blue. Long has she waited.
Me personally, yeah the OG's are good enough, I don't need these. Arms Change gimmick is neat but I never once used it on figures like Geats so I won't do it here either. |

If they were gonna do a Neo Heisei/Phase 2 Rider then it should of been Ghost or Fourze but I could understand Gaim...I guess.
I'd rather seen Blade's anniversary highlighted more in the Seihou line. Those Gaim seihous look good but as others said I'm still content with the originals especially my Kachidoki and Kiwami figuarts Last edited by Henshinmorph917; 03-13-2024 at 12:44 PM.. |

To be fair, Gaim's 10th anniversary WAS just last year, and they might be making up for the lack of Gaim stuff for it. We still got slots for other Seihous, so we shouldn't be too bothered I think.

FWIW, I pulled out my old Gaim SHF and while it's still an excellent figure, it "feels" like it's in a smaller scale compared to more modern releases such as, say, Gotchard. This picture may not accurately show the scale discrepancy, but it's definitely noticeable in person.
I also included Drive here because everything Drive onward seems to match up much better with modern releases. I think it mostly boils down to the size of the head, because Drive isn't much taller than Gaim, but his helmet is much bigger so he doesn't look as tiny. On the other hand, I definitely agree that Ryuki, Blade and Fourze probably needed this treatment more since they're even more out-of-scale with newer releases. Nonetheless, Gaim is in my Top 5 favorite Rider series of all-time, so I'm gonna go for the upgrade.

Man they really made full use of the engineering techniques they got from the Geats line. Results are fantastic! Hopefully they also release Zangestu and Ryugen. I've said it before though and I'll say it again, the old Gaim Figuarts still look and function pretty good. If you're a stickler for proportions and gimmick changes, get these. Otherwise you might as well just get the over-a-decade-old ones.
