They really wanna put out all their Zero-One SHFs as fast as they could, don't they? It's all good since we're the ones benefitting from it, and we're few bit more steps closer to Zero Two.

I'm really gonna buy up a good amount of Zero-One SHFs, aren't I?

That's a very good looking figure!

YES YES YES A NON BINARY Rider! A 1st!
I MUST HAVE THIS

So conflicted. I know by the time this arrives, I'll pretty much be over Zero-One, but it's kinda the first nonbinary Rider and kinda one of the few female (actress) Riders to not be saddled with a hyperfeminine suit. Plus, plus, tertiary Rider with a nifty suit. I shouldn't preorder this, but maaaan...

I need this so bad!!

Okay I've been wondering for a while if I should jump through the hoops to get my first Kamen Rider figure, and I think Naki might be what pushes me over. They're just so cool, both as a character (even though the story didn't use them to their full potential, but then, that's true for most everything in Zero-One) and as a design!

Did Akira(?), Shuki, Marika, and pink Necrom not count?

Edit: ah crap, it's "one of the few". Misread it.

Anyway, I just hope she hovers around the 6000 yen mark. It won't make much sense to be around the 7k mark with how little she'd come with.

The single-jointed knees are interesting. I assume the suit design forced their hands here, as the "kneepads" on the suit are more like thigh pads anyhow, the knees are below them.

If anything I think this is just further confirmation that they want to get Naki's body type and proportions right. They did a great job scaling and modeling Valkyrie to Vulcan so I have no worries that Naki will look great next to the other Metsubojinrai Riders.

Probably because both the character and actor are non-binary.
