Even though it looks like shit, I like the gimmick of stacking them as the numbered boxes then they transform into the mech.

But wow, how the fuck did these designs go through? Didn't some one down the chain realize they look fucking terrible?
>>
Is there something unique about the Gaim Arms Change figures that they stay so expensive, or is it just that they're Gaim related?
>>
>>5339202
It's just because it's Gaim. There's no reason not to go for the SHFs since they're about the same price anyway, unless you really really like the armor swapping gimmick.
>>
>>5339202

They're fun figures and the transformation gimmick is really solid and satisfying. While not as good as S.H. Figuarts they're lots of fun to tinker about and play with, and make great desktop toys. Also not as finicky as the Figuarts where you have to have a lot of parts to play with and keep track of, just the figure and the weapons and the armor.

Get the cheapest one (Orange Arms) and see for yourself. They look very awkward in photos but look great and feel great in hand.

I uh... i kinda want those block-mechs...

I've never been interested in Sentai mech toys before, but this one seems just interesting enough for me, like they might actually have a somewhat involved style of transformation. It's like a bunch those wooden block men, and i love those things.

I also kinda like how this team doesn't have a pink and it has a girl as blue/guy as yellow. And red and blue being two thirds of Sun Vulcan is awesome too.

Agito is on the same body as Kuuga, right? I got one on the HLJ sale last night and I'm curious as to what I'm in for.

If you're talking about the SHFSS I'm pretty sure they have different bodies, Agito's being slimmer.
>>
>>5339832
Yeah, I guess the newer versions? I'm not really into toku stuff so much, I only have the new kuuga and kabuto. I liked kuuga way more though, and agito looked like a remold so I figured why not.
>>
>>5339852
Agito is a solid mold and for 1500 yen you can't go wrong.
>>
>>5339818
The point of the renewals is that they aim to replicate the suit and the suit actor. Kuuga is one of the few Heisei suit actors that wasn't Seiji Takaiwa.

I want to add a more "bulky" and "robotic" rider to my collection--

Out of Kabuto (Renewal), Blue Beet, and Mashin Chaser, who would be considered the "best" choice and why?

I really dig all three designs, but I'm having some trouble deciding. Could someone offer up some insight?
>>
>>5342343
You could get the Kabuto model kit, it comes with his Armor.
>>
>>5342343
Blue Beet most meets your criteria.
>>
>>5342372
Trying to stick to the figuarts for now.

Is the Kabuto Renewal good? I'm not sure if all I heard about it was actual positives, or just the hype.

Like, if you had to pick one out of the three: Kabuto, Blue Beet, and Mashin (prices aside) which would you prefer?
>>
>>5340001
Do those mini figures at the top-right come with the changer?
>>
>>5342381
Well Kabuto is a brand new mold and out of the three has the best articulation.

It's up to personal preference but I like Kabuto the most.
>>
>>5342343
Blue Beet is the best of the three. [spoilers don't work on toy]but don't buy him because it will make it harder for me to find one.
>>
>>5342399
I do prefer good articulation! How does Kabuto hold up to the other renewals? Top tier in your opinion?

>>5342408
What makes him better in your opinion? Accessories and all that?
>>
>>5342381
Don't have BB, but I have Kabuto and Mashin, and I prefer Mashin as a figure.

Kabuto has a finicky issue with the chest (the chest plates are articulated, doesn't really make that much of a difference and was pretty unnecessary imo), and the wristpegs Bandai decided to try out are pretty shit. They're not as poseable like the normal wrist pegs, but more importantly they're tight as hell because Bandai, for some reason, decided that it should be extra secure when it doesn't need to be. I recommend sanding them down a little, as swapping the hands might feel a little scary as the wrist joints themselves and the peg that connects it to the hand are thin. Don't want to be breaking a hand or what not, not that I've heard anyone do it personally.

Mashin doesn't really have many problems. He's a beaut.
>>
>>5342450
Thanks for the info!

I was trying to decide, and this is helping a good amount. I remember fiddling with my friend's Kabuto a while back, and I completely forgot about the chest thing until you mentioned it.

What are some positives you would hold towards Mashin? Can he do a nice standing kick pose?
>>
>>5342439
>What makes him better in your opinion?
His design. I absolutely hate Mashin Chaser and Kabuto is alright, but I love the B-Fighters.
>>
>>5342343
I'm just going to add on that, if it's an aesthetic you enjoy, the Metal Heroes have some promise lately.

At least the shade of brown actually works with the neon orange of the base suit. Like how Tutenkamen works with the neon blue.

I like both those forms quite a bit. I will probably stick to base Riders for SHF this season, but if I had to get alternate forms I would get those two.

Kuuga and Hibiki (yes, he counts) easily.

Sentai Figuarts have always historically sold like shit, even the ones that were brought overseas and rebranded as Power Rangers (Shinken Red and Gold, the Zyurangers, Kiba Ranger). There's just no money in it.
>>
>>5345334
I thought Kiba was one of the best selling Bluefin Figuarts?
>>
>>5345329
I'm sure that that's what Bandai thought. Turns out that power ranger fans just didn't really care about them enough to get the figures on release.
>>
>>5345329
>>5345574
Power Ranger fans will buy bad toys as long as they can walk into Walmart and find it on the shelf.
>>
>>5345574
>>5345587
The reason Sentai figuarts failed in the west is because besides Zyu,they bought over series that not enough people really gave a shit about. And by the time the Zyu releases came out, it was already following a string of not particularly well selling series. There's some bullshit about Power rangers fans being cheap. Nah,there's definitely a subset like that, but Rangers fans are obsessive to the point of monotony. When the Legacy morpher first came out, people bought 6 of them just to have each variation in display, plus one in box. Truth is, they didn't bother catering to the west at all; if they did, we would've gotten Ohranger/Zeo or Megaranger/InSpace(not particularly popular series in Japan) over. Instead they just bought over whatever other concurrent Japanese releases there were(Hurricanger/NinjaStorm and Boukenger/Operation Overdrive), the latter of which being one of the most maligned series in the western fandom.

They should've done other 90's series first, but instead they played it safe and targeted the Japanese market. They based their Sentai releases off Akiibaranger and popularity polls. That failed because the nostalgic salarymen they included in those polls aren't buying the damn toys.
>>
>>5345652
It's not new news at all that they focused on sentai first and power rangers later, everyone here knows that and it would be completely unheard of that they made a release that was power rangers/american market first.
>>
>>5345681
I agree, but I think its bullshit that everyone blames it on Power rangers fans not supporting the line, when if they actually made more lines that were actually popular in the US, they would've sold.

Dude because Sentai Figuarts have a history of going on clearance tons of cheap assholes thought they could be sneaky and wait until all of the MMPR Figuarts dropped in price and get them all for half off. Then Pink Ranger sold out and they all cried and stomped their feet and didn't buy the rest because they couldn't complete the set. Say what you want but I saw that shit on /toy/ and rangerboard.

this is all reading tea leaves unless we see some numbers from bandai, but consider that the people you were interacted with were a specific niche of buyers. i think the anon you're replying to's points about japan not knowing this market are a much bigger factor.

i've seen the cheapo ranger fans though, and oh man, they sure can get pissy about toy pricing.

>they sure can get pissy about toy pricing.
I have a friend who is a rangerfag and would get all bitchy at me for buying the original Japanese versions, telling me I'm wasting my money.

Then Magiranger came up, and he turned around from that when Wolkaiser never came to the states.

This was before the whole 'new molds for America' thing, though.

Good thing the NIPPON EDITION happened, right?
>>
>>5347041
There's doublethink at work here; pink sold out and later so did the others,so obviously there had to be people buying them. I think the teal issue is that by the time the MMPR stuff reached herethe sentai sales were too far gone due to their failure in Japan,and following up with early showa stuff and not 90s heisei series didnt help here.

Yet they are fine with paying $200 for the legacy thunder zord?

Aren't the Legacy Zords just reprints/rereleases of the original DX toys?
>>
>>5347385
No
>>
>>5347385
Nope. Brand new molds with better proportions but because they used the 2010 zord they all have that stupid fucking zord builder gimmick and are smaller. Who knows if the thunder megazord's transformation isn't fucked to hell because of zord builder. It's such a pointless fucking gimmick on something meant for adults.
>>
Did anyone else here order the Lost Edition Ranger Key Set from CSToys? Have you received a shipping payment request?
I ordered it back when it was announced and paid for the items, but they said I would still have to pay shipping once it came out since they couldn't calculate shipping until they were sure of the size and weight. I still haven't heard anything from them and the set has been out for close to a week now. Thanks to Holiday Closures and the increased congestion of postal services I doubt I'll be seeing it until next year even if I get the request today.

The Legacy Zords aren't compatible with Zord Builder.
Also it is a slightly cool gimmick, the extra ports are fairly ugly and unnecessary, but it'd be nice if season to season had universal joints.
These are the Japanese toys out of all the Kyoryu and Abaranger stuff the only things that work together are Pterogordon's arms and even then it is really flimsy.
>>
>>5347496
>The Legacy Zords aren't compatible with Zord Builder.

I thought they were though? Like the Tiger Zord doesn't transform into it's torso mode properly because they had to work that stupid gimmick in and now it parts forms. Either way I still don't like it on the Legacy stuff. Gimmicks from kids lines don't have any purpose in collector stuff unless it doesn't in any way hinder the toy like say Man-E-Faces from He-Man's head turning on the MotUC figure.

Fun fact: they order items for you even if they don't make a preorder page for it. So looking for something that may not be there is rather idiotic, isn't it? :^)
>>
>>5347506
They have Zord Builder ports, but they seem to be more to facilitate the Legacy Dino Megazord which was made from a $30 Zord Builder toy. The only problem with the Tigerzord is you have to pull the back tiger legs off to connect the Triceratops and Sabertooth Tiger on. I'd imagine once the Thunder Megazord comes out they'll combine like the original.

I am happy he's next. God help me if I had to wait for at least 4 months to get Ghost's basic alt forms first.

Also, I am a bit split on whether or not I want the alt forms in Ghost. Loved the base suits from the start, all of the current 3 of them. The alt forms are another story. Then again I feel the alt forms and the gimmick are starting to really grow on me. Even the ghost driver, whose voice is the worst damn part of these alt forms, is stuck in my head and I can't stop repeating. So I'm split in the middle here. Someone send help.

>>5349513
I have to ask, why do figuarts use articulation like that on the hips/thighs? No human can swivel their thigh around more than like 5 degrees to either side. A double joint between the hips and leg would have been fine.
>>
>>5349639
Huh? You can totally do at least 45 degrees outwards.
>>
>>5349648
At the hips sure, but not at my thigh. Straighten out your legs and try to twist your foot, it's mostly just your ankle turning, and awkwardly at that. The human thigh literally doesn't contain a joint capable of turning the way figuarts figures do.
>>
>>5349656
When you turn your leg does your knee not move?
>>
>>5349656
The result is basically the same whether you turn at the hip or slightly below. Ghost has the joint seam along the armor. Drive's has nothing on his thighs, so the swivel is pretty close to the hip.
>>
>Preparation in progress for CSM Diendriver

I forgot I bought this. Neat.
>>
>>5349659
I don't think you understand what I'm saying. Your knee turning is a result of your leg turning at the hip. The human body doesn't have a joint to swivel in the thigh, it has a balljoint between the femur and hip which is why you can turn your leg. But turning your leg at the thigh is biologically impossible.

>>5349661
Drive looks like it has a front butt. Ghost honestly looks better because the thigh armor comes up a bit.
>>
>>5349639
>I have to ask, why do figuarts use articulation like that on the hips/thighs?

I have to ask, why do Americans care about such things? Is it ruining the sculpt? No? Then shut the fuck up. You're acting like the faggots on video game forums who get mad about shit in video games they never have to use.

Out of the Blade riders, how would you rank the figures in terms of accuracy and overall worth?

I want to pick some up, but after Christmas shopping, I only have enough for two.

What are your top two picks and why? Show biases aside.
>>
>>5353396
Well, I own Garren and Chalice. I've never seen the show. Amazon had him for ~30 bucks last year and I grabbed him with Another Agito and Gills. The latter two are pretty good, but Chalice is fantastic. I love the details and his overall design. Really unique, In my opinion. I also got Garren this year and he's sort of neat.
>>
>>5353396
Not counting that you have to get a bike with Garren:

King Form > Blade > Leangle > Garren = Chalice

King Form is just huge. Still on the thin side, but the armor is big. Blade has the most accessories, but his head is pretty narrow. I dislike Garren's design the most, and by himself he's the most boring of the four. Leangle was wide as fuck in the show, so the figure's looks are up to you. It's still well made and handles very well. I love Chalice and think the figure looks great, but mine was loose and is lighter than the other three.
>>
>>5353406

I haven't picked up any of the Blade Riders, but I hear nothing but good things about Blade. I agree with this anon, Chalice looks awesome. If I picked one up, it'd definitely be Chalace. Blade would probably be My second choice.
