Got S.H. Figuarts Wizard, Drive and Ex-Aid today.

Now I have every main Rider from W to Ex-Aid in SHF form.

Is that the renewal W?

Gave it a try at making Fourze

I wish we could color the chestplate separate from the rest. Would be nice to get rid of unnecessary orange on the shoulderpads and add more silver.

Dat chestplate is so perfect though!

Yes, both W and the HardBoilder are Renewal versions

I'd also like to get the renewal Decade, but he goes for around $150!

 

I also want to get Zangetsu or Zangetsu Shin, but can't decide which one do I want to have more :laugh:

Kinda tempted to get SHF Ghost since he's really cheap these days. Is he worth it? I heard his articulations are really limited due to the jacket. 

Well, it is limited a bit, but not really that much.

I'll give you a quick rundown of what I feel is getting limited.

Let's begin

So, since you have Drive and Ex-Aid, I have asked them to assist with comparative demonstration.

First, the head:

As you can see, the only major problem here is that he can't look up all that much, due to the collar, but otherwise everithing is pretty standard.

When the hood is on, the piece is attached to the head, so the head has fool freedom of movement. The only nuance here is that turning the head too much may break the unified look, but it isn't really a limitation per se, but rather a compromise between look and functionality.

When the hood is down, it forms a collar similar to the one Ex-Aid has. Side to side movement is similar to what Drive has before he bumps his chin against the tyre.

And of course you can always raise the chin to get a further turn if you really need to.

 

Second, arms being a bit limited due to the sleeves.

And the only limited motion there is raising the arms away from the body.

Isn't much different from Drive.

A quick note: since my Drive is new, shoulder pads were still a bit stiff when I took the picture. Now after I have fiddled with him some more, I can get shoulder pads a bit more out of the way, and Drive can raise his arms a bit more than what is seen here, but not drastically different.

Other than that, Ghost has as much movement in the arms as the others do.

Sleeves being separate pieces, much like the hood, may require some work to get in the right position to give more uniform look, but again, it isn't really a limitation.

I guess, since the jacket is made out of rubbery material, sleeves can come out of the box stuck to the upper arms and giving people impression that they are permanently attached and preventind the twist in the bicep. But in fact they are just sitting freely over the upper arm, and after some gentle twisting and loosening can bee easily adjusted to accomodate any movement.

 

I'd say, overall the jacked isn't really preventing any of the joints' movement, but rather making it harder to access those joints. It's just feels kinda awkward to operate the joint through the jacket. Not really that bad though, just unusual.

 

So, overall all the standart articulation is there, and functionally you get pretty much everything you may need.

 

So, is he worth it?

Absolutely!

If you love Ghost and can afford the figure, you won't be disappointed.

 

P.S.

He also comes with the Gan Gun Saber, which has Saber and Gun modes. Forgot to take pictures of it, too lazy to do it now, sorry :)

 

P.P.S.

Also, while I'm at it, Wisard! Just because he looks awesome :)

So......can anyone guess what's Kamen Rider ZI-O gonna be?

I kiiiiiiiinda want to see a journey through the neo-heisei decade, sorta like Decade 2.0, but less... messy, and making more sense.
