BEST MATCH!
While Toy Fair continues, over in the East it’s time for Winter Wonder Festival and we have our first bit of news with Kamen Rider making the jump into Bandai’s Figure Rise Standard model kit series.
For those of you who may not be familiar with the Figure Rise Standard line; it’s Bandai’s line of model kits which operates at the 1/8th scale. Up until now, the line mostly consisted of characters from Dragon Ball and other anime but now it’s adding Kamen Rider into the mix with a Figure Rise Standard Kamen Rider Build Tank Rabbit Form having been spotted on display.
Currently, not much else is known about this kit other than the fact that it’ll have an assortment of hands and Drill Crusher weapon, this should provide a decent enough substitute or alternative for those that may have missed out on his S.H.Figuarts release.

Seems like we're getting another line of Kamen Rider model kits with a Figure Rise Standard Kamen Rider Build Tank Rabbit having just been revealed at Wonder Fest:

I just saw this - and while I have no need for it I'm still pissed that the Figuarts-version outsourced the weapons to the bike... *grumble*
Oh well, this looks really good, if there are people who like to "build" themselves a Build figure, this seems to be a good one to get.

I thought Figurerise Standard was a Dragon Ball exclusive line.
Kiwami says
Seems like they made a break and are now trying to get back into the game with Kamen Rider after the Dragonball-stuff sold well.

The most recent rider-related Figure-rise models were Kabuto and Faiz if I recall. Ever since Dragon Ball resurfaced it seemed like they stopped making rider stuff but glad to see they are releasing Build.
One cool stuff about both Kabuto and Faiz are that the kits allow you to convert them to Dark Kabuto and Faiz Accel Mode respectively with some manual labor, in this case painting them.
Kiryu says
For those curious about the scale:
Figure Rise on the left, Figuarts on the right. Not my photo but this should give you guys a good idea of how they scale next to Figuarts.
