SH Figuarts Kamen Rider Jin Flying Falcon Release Details Confirmed!

Out in August!

https://p-bandai.jp/item/item-1000141165/

The metallic pink looks a bit darker that the show's Ex-Aid pink. I do appreciate that they have included his wings however. Looks good overall though! And this is one of the few times I'm not bothered by the lack of an included weapon considering how Jin likes to utilise hit and run attacks. Looking forward for the purple scorpion as well.

Jin looks nice, but I prefer Horobi. I REAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLY wish Horobi will get a retail release. Oh, and also Valkyrie.

Anyway, Jin is released in August? Dang, it's 8 months of waiting. Usually it's 4-5 months. Perhaps the Forceriser Riders are more detailed?

How the fuck does an august release make sense? Bandai needs to get their shitntogether and release these closer to their TV debut

So, this confirms Horobi or Valkyrie as the third retail rider. I want to hope that either Horobi or both of them aren't P-Bandai but I have an odd suspicion that it's Valkyrie who is the P-bandai. Why?

1. The simple fact that she's a female rider.
2. They can't possibly make both Forceriser Riders be P-bandai? Especially when they suddenly to be generous and give out both Z1 and Vulcan's weapons in a retail release.


Of course, it could be that both of them are P-bandai and it is Thouser who is the third regular release rider.

... bit worried they announced this before Valkyrie.

Was also surprised that this was given a release date before Valkyrie...

I'm really hoping that her and Horobi also end up as retail releases while the eventual Thouser ends up as the first TWE.

But I feel like the fact that Vulcan is coming with his and Zero-One's Attachecase weapons rather than them being packed into the bike like before means we're gonna get something different to cover the yearly "Why would you do this?" release like exclusive Valkyrie.

What's even weirder than the fact that they announced this before Valkyrie is the fact that they announced a figure that's not coming out until next August...strange.


But they're definitely filling in the gap with at least one more Zero-One release...I hope this means Valkyrie is a retail release.

Yeah, this is definitely weird.

If we follow the pattern from Zero-One and Vulcan SHFs, new release will be announced about 2 months after previous release, each with about 4 months of period between pre-order date and release date (Zero-One's pre-order started by early October and will be released on February, Vulcan's started by early December with release date around April). So the next figure will be announced around early February with release date around early June.

I was like, six figures per year is kinda slow. Previous series released around 11 to 13 figures per year, before the new series release. Perhaps they slow it down this year to give more time into improving the accuracy and details, unlike several previous releases (I mean you, SHF Ex-Aid and SHF Night Rogue). Then I thought, well if this is the case then it could be beneficial for us collectors.

Or perhaps they decided to release Jin and Horobi at almost the same time because they share many identical parts (barring the helmet and weapon), so this decision is kinda makes sense. It's kinda 2-in-1 release. Let's all wish Horobi end up as a retail release. Please release at least one rider from each faction as retail.

Wonder if thouser will be webshop or retail hmm.

Why so late for Jin to come out.I think he stuffer from standing weird since his feet are not flat in the photos from what I see.
