on the bright side kabuto only got 4 release so far (kabuto, dark kabuto & gattack, thebee, and hoppers)
which out of these 4 is the best to get first? though I think would definitely skip thebee coz of limited

oh I'm falling to the dark side already

just bit the bullet and contacted the seller to po the hopper bros.

oh boy, guess I'm venturing into another line. ohwai

never trust bandai with gold. this is gunpla all over again

please be normal release!!! I need more nega riders
so far only got ryuga & dark kiva. No sign of affordable dark kabuto seen yet & nega den-o is online exclusive

Same, they're reissuing it because the bike come out at the same time. As for the ryuki & kabuto reissue, they just add the stand with the belt pattern only

They're considered to be quite famous as a gunpla salesman for the american region & they've been in business for a long time already I think
not sure how the postage fee to aussie might since we're talking changing to 3 regions already (japan-america-aussie )
better suggest getting directly from japan I guess

Kinda odd haven't seen people post these guys here
My first SIC and I'll probably gonna regret venturing into this line


Too lazy to open the packaging

Only yuuki works for me but too expensive so poison evaded
So far only these 2 attracts me, initially want to get thebee but exclusive

I want that chaliceeee!!!!!!

again, I would prefer it that way

I think OOO & wizard definitely got the message through

as for the marketing, it has been obvious from the start. Parents nowadays have the purchasing power so who wouldn't take advantage of it? Basically every toy company is doing the same thing.
Like bro yktan7 said, the upgrade is part of the things that attract people especially kids towards the show. Maybe it is just me but I'll probably be slightly bored if there was no upgrade or just the same rider, it what makes the show interesting. It is the heisei riders style actually
kuuga, agito, den-o, kiva, w, ooo, fourze, wizard- large number of upgrades
ryuki, faiz, blade, hibiki, kabuto, decade- variety of riders

as for the design, yeah I do agree they're below par compared to the earlier series but it starting to look slightly better actually for wizard & gaim

shadowmoon just reissue already probably 3 more years to wait

Well what do u expect from a web exclusive?
Those exclusive better get early, otherwise enjoy the price hike

Well he did mentioned with shin also so seems logical enough.
Have to skip autovajin though, bullet needed for something more important.

Gaim still no news probably because they're trying to find a way for those fruits changeable and compatible with other riders
But this is too good to be true for bandai

Really nice sculpt but too bad the crack doesn't really look convincing
But overall I have to say bandai did a good job with this one
