As a self-proclaimed giant Kamen Rider Gaim fan, I had no qualms with purchasing this statue from Banpresto! What I didn’t expect was just how amazing this statue is – both with the details and the overall quality – and it is now become a centerpiece for my Kamen Rider Gaim collection!

Standing at over a foot tall with the stand, the statue is hallow making it light weight. The paint is, for the most part, perfectly applied (there’s some smearing on the leg paint where there’s gold on the criss-cross pattern of his suit). But the details on everything from the visor, the Sengoku Driver, the Pine and Ichigo Lockseeds, the Musou Saber, and the armor itself makes this statue a must-own for any die-hard fan of Kamen Rider Gaim.

There was a lot of folks from #RangerNation at Robo Toy Fest this year, including Bruno and Mia frin @MMPRToys! Known for their extensive video reviews (which you can find by clicking here), they were at Robo Toy Fest and got basically our first in-hand look, feel, and quasi-review of the upcoming Legacy Dragonzord. Check out the video review below!

Into Battle! Hey Hey Oh!

It’s time for our gallery and review of the newest retail release in the Arms Change line from Kamen Rider Gaim! This one’s the beast, the tank, the immovable object that is Kamen Rider Gaim Kachidoki Arms! 

This bulky form is so far Gaim’s most powerful in the series and as a toy it’s yet another fantastic entry in the line. If you aren’t sold on Arms Change by now you are certainly missing out! See how this figure and it’s higher accessory count stacks up against the older release in the line, and as an added bonus you can see how the Kachidoki Arms look on every previously released AC Rider, AND vice versa! Perhaps you need more convincing than just these images?

Then why not take a look at our gooody buddy baltmatrix’s video review of this figure as well!
