Collection Showcase: Kamen Rider Baron

 


COME ON! BANANA ARMS: KNIGHT OF SPE-AR!

The Baron is here!! the 3rd entry of a Neo-Heisei series rider in my collection, the Banana Knight, the 2nd lancer of the entire Heisei era, Kaito Kumon in his rider form Kamen Rider Baron!

 

Accessory wise: 8 pairs of hands, 2 versions of the Banana Lockseed (closed and sliced), not to mention the iconic Banaspear (locked mode and extended mode).

 

 

shown on the right pic: Baron does his signature pose from the show's opening song, it is also his pose when doing his Rider Thrust finisher Banana Squash: Spear Victory where he releases a spear-shaped beam of energy from the Banaspear to thrust at the enemy, and slashing them. 

 

 

shown on another picture (right pic): Baron does his signature pose from a different version of his finisher Banana Sparking: Spear Victory: where he stabs the Banaspear into the ground, creating multiple banana-shaped projections which hit an opponent several times from below.

 

final comments and recommendations:

-my only issue with the Sengoku Driver is that the cutting blade tends to pop off.
-overall the figure is awesome, completely and 100% show accurate, as expected from S.H Figuarts.
-100% recommended as well to those who want to get the figure. 

Hopefully I'll be able to get Gaim to complete the duo/rivalry.

STAY TUNED FOR THE NEXT REVIEW.

HENSHIN!!

Collection Showcase: Kamen Rider Tiger

 

I HAVE BAGGED THE TIGER!
The Hero of the Mirror World, has come to my collection!
I REPEAT! The Hero of the Mirror World, has come to my collection!

I have waited for this badass for years!!

Begin the showcase...

 

Accessories wise: Tojo comes with his Dest Claws, Dest Visor, 10 pairs of hands, 4 Advent cards (Strike Vent, Freeze Vent, Advent, and his Final Vent) adding to the awesomeness of S.H Figuarts they do maintain show accuracy.

 

 

However, in mentioning of the many blunders of Bandai also to add to my many complaints: they didn't add Tiger's most valuable asset and contract monster Destwilder. The monster responsible in completion of his iconic finisher, Crystal Break where the monster drags his victim on the ground then Tiger stabs them through the abdomen via his claws.


Destwilder was shown on display by Tamashii Nations 2012, sad to say he was included in Bandai's revealed (and never to release) products. To promote better sales, I suggest they just release every damn figure they've ever made.

My only problem/complain about the Dest Claws is the fact that its difficult to insert them into Tiger's hand joints. Same complain of other collectors (who are also YouTubers) who own said figure.

Moving forward: the following are duel pics between Ryuki and Tiger

THE RIDER BATTLE....BEGINS

2 out of 13 Mirror World riders are now in my collection....

Will I add more???
Let's wait and see....

Collection Showcase: Kamen Rider Skull

Decided to do a full showcase of Shinkoucchou Seihou: Kamen Rider Skull in all his badassery and glory.

As the famous detective of Fuuto always says:
さあ…お前のつみよ、かぞえろ…
(Now... count up, your sins...)

Like every Shinkoucchou Seihou figure Kamen Rider Skull's box stands out from the rest. He comes with 10 pairs of hands, 2 versions of his fedora, 2 versions of his scarf, the default and Skull Crystal  masks, the Skull Memory, the Skull Magnum, and of course the case that housed the W driver and the Gaia Memories that would eventually create Fuuto's 2-in-1 Kamen Rider.  

As shown in scenes of the movie Kamen Rider × Kamen Rider OOO & Double feat. Skull: Movie War Core Skull's initial transformation was his Skull Crystal. A form referencing crystal skulls. 

With the use of his Skull Crystal form he uses a different version of his finisher by realeasing energy from his chest in the shape of a large purple skull that can bite opponents.

Now we discuss his default form: pertaining to his fedoras; the original and the damaged. In the series flashback fans discover that his fedora would be damaged by the Taboo Dopant who in the case of the series itself is the biological daughter of his friend Shroud who bestowed him the powers of a Kamen Rider.

In Skull's Default form his Rider Stats and Ability Perimeters outmatch that of his Skull Crystal form. Through this form he comes with two attacks: a rider shooting attack called Skull Punisher and a rider kick called Finisher kick that involves releasing a giant energy skull from his chest, which stuns the opponent and knocks them back before rising into the air. Skull then puts the Skull Memory into the Maximum Drive Slot, jumps up, and does a roundhouse Rider Kick, which propels the energy skull toward the opponent, whom it bites down on.

The last 3 photos showcase his iconic Rider Machine: the Skullboilder, the Hardboilder's predecessor. Skull also has a Tank-like vehicle called the Skullgarry though unlike its successor it didn't house enhancements for the bike. Overall the figure is superb, in design, articulation and of course accessories, it overall matched the detail of the character as shown in the series and the movie.
