I don't think Lopo's gonna be the answer to getting parts for Na-Go mainly due to their build differences. Lopo is more the size of the other males compared to Neon's shorter build, so if she were to get an SHF it wouldn't look right being so short. If anything, I'd expect Sara to get her rider form as an SHF which would double as an Entry form for Na-Go at the very least.
That or SHFUpgrade makes a custom Entry Raise torso, mouthplate and lense set for her.

The crazy part is looking at that review video Nago almost looks at tall as Geats or head is that big that she looks the same height.
Neither figure were standing up straight to tell for sure but she definitely appeared as tall as Geats due to her head size Maybe we could get her alternate parts in a Nago Fantasy release It's just crazy seeing all the other releases come complete or with alternate parts such as PunkJack that I personally would of paid more to get female mold parts for Nago knowing that the show was gonna be over by the time her figure released |

I think it?s good that Bandai was forward thinking enough to give themselves the option to do swappable parts for NaGo, but, also, I would not say it?s safe to bet on them doing any sort of swappable optional part release for NaGo.
A while ago, SH Figuarts released a dragon ball super version of armored Broly from the Broly movie. He had three swappable heads for his different forms, and all of them could have the face plate removed. However, it did not come with any extra face plates to swap out. As far as I know, Tamashii never released any extra faceplates for that set. So I?m guessing sometimes Tamashii will just give themselves a backdoor option for future upgrades even if there are no plans. |

I am honestly surprised Nago's engineered so similarly to the other figures after Tamashii said upfront it would not be compatible. Yea, it could lead to future proofing, but I am leaning toward thinking it was just easier to design/manufacture it this way

After seeing the the Nago Figuart, yeah she definitely can't swap. While yeah the front face plate can come off, the mouth plate can't which means she wouldn't be able to swap forms at all unless they made new heads that has Nago's back helmet details & the mouth molded to be whatever form you wanted (compared to the guys who use the same heads and just swap jaw pieces. Granted it's still not perfect for the guys since there's the issue of the eye colors, but that feels like less of an oversight and more like the gimmick was specifically designed with Geats in mind only). Even if they released a Hakubi entry form, they still need to include an entirely new head for Nago to be able to use it since the back of Hakubi's helmet has completely different details.
If anything I think that the removal faceplate & waist connector bit is just leftovers from flirting with the idea of making Nago be able to form change before feeling it wasn't worth it. Last edited by JusticeMagnum; 08-19-2023 at 10:22 PM.. |

An artist that goes by WinPan made 3D printable files for Lopo and Da-Paan (and I guess Shirowe and Punkjack) heads for figuarts. The bear head has an alternate version with two star eyes
