It seems Bandai are full of surprises this January, as among their listings for Tamashii web exclusives that month is Kamen Rider Amazon‘s personal motorcyle – the Jungler!
Like the previously released Autovaijin, the Jungler will be released in two different formats. Those who already own S.H. Figuarts Amazon will be able to buy the bike on its own, while those who missed out will also be able to purchase a special 2-pack including a reissue of the Rider! Both releases include a rear wheel stand and Tamashii stage, however the 2-pack also includes a unique slash effect part for Amazon which is different from the one included in the original release.
The single release Jungler is priced 5400 yen, while the 2-pack will cost 9180 yen. Check out the full gallery of this Showa era bike and its Rider after the jump!
My apologies if this is a duplicate thread, but searching didn't show me a pre-existing one. Feel free to shut this down if I am a doofus and missed it somewhere.
Jungler is being released on its own as a Tamashii web exclusive in January 2015 for 5,400 yen. The standalone features the usual replacement handles, stand and a Stage Soul joint.
There is also an Amazon/Jungler two-pack on the schedule. It will also be a Tamashii web exclusive in January 2015 at 9,180 yen. The two-pack includes what comes with the Jungler, as well as additional accessories: "5 replacement wrists, replacement muffler, bracelet parts, belt parts, two weapons and the large cutting effect for the Dai Setsudan."

It isn't, I just forgot it this morning and then didn't have time to go back
Thank you for sorting a thread out though! I've got time to do a front page bit now
Oh. Holy. Shit.
I've had Amazon for years but never imagined the Jungler was coming. If a bike like that can be made after so long. then it gives me hope for other figures that still don't have their rides.

As for the set, I needed an Amazon so this works out great. That's a beauty of a bike, too. I still don't have an Ichigo or a Nigo. I'm too booked up the months those come out. Hopefully I can grab them off Mandarake or Jungle later.
And there we go, frontpaged!
I'm kinda torn on this release myself. The Jungler is hands down my favourite Rider bike, but given that I'll probably never display Amazon on it I have to wonder if its really worth the purchase for me :/ shame there isn't a single issue of Amazon coming too.
I guess I'll see how Jan plays out. If its a light month for regular releases I'll definitely bite. I expect to see this bike/2-pack reissue pattern for a lot more figures in future though.
January is crazy heavy for exclusives. This, Pine & Mango, Blue Beet...
I fear what the regular releases will bring as well.
As long as the 2 pack version Amazon isn't different from the previous release then I'm just getting the stand alone bike. No need for me to double dip.
The Jungler looks sweet.
