Seems to be such a big improvement over the skinny "renewal".

I'm probably just being a brainlet, but is it just me or is his stomach still a tad bit too thin? Or, like they should be more straight instead of being more hourglass.

Fantastic to see more Showa again! ... though, uh... they've now run through all the popular ones...

In any case I guess this was going to be the big reveal at Tamashii Nations. Guessing he'll release on April 1st.

Ehhh, I’m sure it’ll be fantastic but it would have probably been my last choice for a Showa Seihou. Gonna be forever until I get a new V3 at this rate

Yeah, that is my worry too -- like I said they've gone through all the really popular ones now with Ichigou, Amazon and Black. Shadow Moon and Black RX aside that does kinda feel like it decreases the chances for the rest... these guys just don't get the respect the Ultra Brothers do.

What I noticed almost immediately are the new cuts in the pelvic area. The older figures only articulated from the legs going inside this piece, the new one breaks up the sculpt to better the articulation and I like it, that's clever.

V3 isn’t popular?

The other I could see being niche but he was the second Rider to get this own show.

Unlikely, they wouldn’t have given the scoop to a magazine that releases beforehand. Pretty sure there's still going to be a Heisei Rider there, but Black will release first.

In fact I expect him to go up for pre-order before the event even starts.

Super-1 is my favorite Showa Rider (design-wise) and I demand a Shinkocchou Seihou of him.

Great to see Showa again. I imagine the next one will be either Shadow Moon or RX. Hope this means that they'll give us Seihous of every Showa Rider.

This seems really unnecessary, but I guess this is an opportunity for people to get a quality Black figure if they missed the last one. I personally am not going to buy a 4th version of Black (in this scale). It'd be nice, I think, if Bandai would focus a little harder on making figures of characters that don't already have several versions out there. Or failing that, update someone who needs it more like Tackle.

Well...I was hoping for Faiz, but Black is nice too.
