Kamen Ride,
DECADE!
It’s time once again for TokuNation to take a look at a brand new update to a classic (if divisive) character with S.H. Figuarts Shinkocchou Seihou Kamen Rider Decade! The 5th release in Bandai’s line of high end, premium style figuarts, Decade seeks to rectify the mistakes of the previous 2 releases this character received.
In every aspect where the original Decade figuarts failed, Seihou Decade succeeds perfectly. This figure has proportions, colors, features, & accessories that outclass the old release in every way. We finally have a Decade figuart with not only an accurate head, but a functioning Decadriver (that’s properly painted too!) but also quality Rider Cards to use with it. Decade also comes with all 3 forms of the Ride Booker, he even comes with hands for any situation including for use with the previously released S.H. Figuarts Machine Decader! topping off this selection Decade includes his alternate evil Violent Emotion head from Movie Wars 2010.
We’ve included a selection of images of this fantastic figure with this post, but over 60 await you in the full gallery/review thread. Just click “Discuss on the TokuNation forums” at the bottom of this post to see them all.
