In addition to S.H.Figuarts Kamen Rider Shin, further release details on the S.H.Figuarts Black RX Renweal figure were revealed. Black RX Renewal is due out this April with the price tag of 3888 yen.
As part of the Super imaginative Chogokin’s 15th Anniversary, Tamashi held an interview with two members of the design team: Gojima and Yasufuji.
In the interview, the two discuss topics ranging from the success of the Kamen Rider OOO releases to the up coming Shin Ichigo figure. Thanks to HenshinJustice, a portion of this interview was translated:
Yasufuji: Now, we are working with Nakashima Kenichi along with the digital expert Ito in a 4 person system/structure. At the current moment, we’re mostly focusing on the coloring, but soon I think we’ll build up inertia. For now, the work process is like, I make a right arm and pass it along… They say, “And now the left arm please.”
Gojima: “In 3 days!” And I’m like only 3 days…? It’s all purely hand crafted, so anyone with a free hand does what they can.
Yasufuji: And when some of those things come up, I think “Nope… that’s not right.” and start fixing it. (giggle) Neither side seems strange by themselves, but when we put them together, sometimes they seem a bit off. When working with solids, sometimes things just have an interesting shape.
Gojima: Basically, it’s just that over and over again. We kept fixing things so much, I moved into Yasufuji’s area! (more giggles)
– The current “Kamen Rider 000″ Series is really popular, isn’t it!
Yasufuji: With the last S.I.C. series, it was mainstream to have retrofitting parts to make different characters, but many of the the hardcore fans said, “We’ll buy the different characters anyway, so you don’t have to do it that way!” (again with the giggles) Recently, that gimmick has been seen as a waste. In that vein, we traded in “retrofitting” for “play value”, The OOO arms and legs can be exchanged to depict scenes from the show. But, we’re worried about how accurate we have to be with these parts. In the show, these effects only last for an instant, so we have questions like, “What is the original shape of the grasshopper hero’s leg?” (Giggle) So, until the first round of Tatobakobo go out on sale, we were breaking out in a cold sweat. But overall they were received well, so we were relieved.
Gojima: In an attempt to compliment us, they were called “Gross” on the net.
Along with the two secondary Rider Lock Seeds, there’s a video demonstration Decade Rider Lock Seed with LEDs from reviewer catmovie1985.
Suggested for use with either Gaim or Zangetsu’s faceplates, the Decade Lock Seed declares “Decade Arms! Destroyer On the Road!” In addition to “Final Attack Ride De-De-Decade!” “Kamen Ride Decade!” And lastly “Final Form Ride De-De-De-Decade!” Check out his video in the box below:
Secondary Riders Beast and Meteor are represented with their very own Lock Seeds.
Youtuber tatsuya saito has a video demonstration for these Seeds up! It’s suggested that Meteor should be used with the Ryugen faceplate while Beast should be used in conjunction with Bravo’s. Check out his video of the seeds in the box below:
Kamen Rider Gaim juices up board games with the release of Roulette Battle.
A special Roulette Orange Lock Seed is included with the board game and used in place of traditional die simijmito has a demonstration of the seed. You can watch it below:
Better quality images of the third quarter Kamen Rider Gaim’s scans have been released, revealing more functions to the DJ Gun.
On it’s own, the DJ gun will be able to change between three firing modes via a dial located above the handle ranging from a laser shot, machine gun fire, and a wider burst of energy. The DJ Gun can also turn into a sword which will be able to combine with the Musou Saber to create an even larger blade.
In addition, the image confirms that the Kachidoki Lock Seed will be it’s own, new series of Seed separate from the Energy ones.
The DJ Gun is due out for release in March, as is the Kachidoki Lock Seed. The Seed will cost 3000 yen while the gun has the price tag of 5500 yen.
If the DX Watermelon Arms seems out of reach to you, Banpresto’s revealed a perfect substitute.
While it might not transform or have much in the way of articulation, Banpresto did reveal that they will be making a Suika Arms to go with their super deformed WFC line.
Price and Release dates will be announced at a later date, but we do know that the figure will stand 14mm tall to be properly in scale with the rest of the figure waves.
