For those of you who follow Transformers at all surely know of a fellow by the name of Vangelus, a popular podcast host of WTF@TFW as well as a common contributor to other podcasts, not to mention one of the most popular and highly subscribed video toy reviewer.

Vangelus dropped me a line to let me know that he’s got some new reviews up of some Kamen Rider W SIC Figure sets on YouTube, and we’re going to pass them along to you (for those who don’t already follow him and his updates).

So check out the video reviews of the following: CycloneJoker & Xtreme, HeatMetal & LunaTrigger, and FangJoker & Skull!
