SDCC 2017 – Super Sentai & Kamen Rider Inspired Figures from 1000 Toys
Here’s something a bit different, and more akin to the third party offerings many Transformers fans have access to these days. 1000 Toys is a company largely known for their excellent 1/12 Scale TOA Heavy Industries Synthetic Humans, which you can order from our site sponsor BBTS using that link. Now they’re taking a stab in a different direction with some figures heavily inspired by Super Sentai & Kamen Rider!
These new Synthetic Human sublines, “Nextman Synth” & “Knight of Synth” share the same basic engineering as the Heavy Industries figures, with a little toku sensibility mixed in. The seemingly rider themed Nextman figures are named Cyclone, Fusion, & Future. Each retailing for $80 USD. Their pizza themed sentai-inspired heroes are also on display. These guys appear to be based on figures originally created by Youtube pairing Toy Pizza. You may also be familiar with the Mecha Zone Pizzanuats figures based on these designs. The green knight is Lime, red is Brick, blue is Teal, and the black one is Death Knight. Each of these is also $80 USD.
