Jedimon has a Figuarts Week!!!



Day 1: Another Agito
To start off my Figuarts Week and make it a full 7 days, I review my Another Agito figure. This is a very pretty figure. He comes with 2 heads: 1 screaming open-mouthed and 1 regular. He also has several extra hands and 2 scarf wing things that attach to his back.



Day 2: Kamen Rider Gills
Next up is Kamen Rider Gills. I was hesitant at first to get him since I haven't seen Agito, but I was not disappointed. He comes with 2 heads: closed mouth and open screaming mouth, 2 sets of horns: long and short, several extra hands, 2 long wrist spikes, 2 long ankle spikes, and 6 tentacle pieces for tentacle lovin'.



Day 3: Kamen Rider Rising IXA
Moving forward, we come to Kamen Rider Rising IXA. This guy is quite possibly the best and prettiest Figuart EVER. He is an exclusive, and I pre-ordered him at CSToys. He comes with a butt-load of accessories. He has a bunch of extra hands, 2 Fueslots, 2 IXA Caliburs: 1 in gun mode and 1 in sword mode, an IXA Knuckle, the IXA Generator (the other half of the belt for when he holds the IXA Knuckle), and 2 IXA Risers: 1 in Phone Mode and 1 in gun Mode. The IXA Risers are so freakin cool cause they can open and close allowing it to also be turned into Search Mode. I DEFINITELY recommend him if you can find him. He will be expensive, but he is definitely worth it, and it would be better to get him sooner rather than later when the price really goes up (i.e. New Den-O Strike Form or Yuuki).



Day 4: Kamen Rider W Cyclone Set
My fourth entry brings some double W goodness with the Kamen Rider W Cyclone Set featuring Cyclone Metal and Cyclone Trigger. I bought this from CSToys, and it was the last set they had. So I have give Mr. S a big thanks for allowing me to purchase this set even with its damaged box. I love these figures despite the fact that Cyclone Trigger suffers from Loose Leg Syndrome. They are both visually amazing and come with even more accessories than Rising IXA. The set comes with: 4 green hands, 2 silver hands, 2 blue hands, an extended Metal Shaft, a short Metal Shaft for the back, regular Trigger Magnum, Maximum Drive Trigger Magnum, 2 "at rest" mufflers, 1 giant epic "blowing in the wind" muffler, mini Stag Phone to put on the Magnum, mini Spider Shock for the Magnum, Mini Bat Shot for the Magnum, and a tiny head for the Bat to make it look normal. I would definitely recommend this set if you are a fan of W and trying to get all of his forms. It is also worth it for the accessories it comes with. You can either try to find one now or wait until August when both the Cyclone and Heat Sets get a re-release.



Day 5: Kamen Rider Skull
Continuing with W Riders we have Kamen Rider Skull. He is Shotaros's boss/Akiko's dad who makes his appearance in the W part of the Kamen Rider X Kamen Rider Decade and W Movie Taisen 2010. He is another Bandai Collector's Shop exclusive figure that I pre-ordered from CSToys at the same time as Rising IXA, and he is definitely worth his price tag. He comes with 4 extra pair of hands, a relaxed scarf, a blowing in the wind scarf, a Skull Magnum, and 2 Fedoras: 1 with the tear in it and 1 without. I would recommend him for any fan of W. He is a great figure even if he is not as detailed or pretty as Rising IXA.



Day 6: Kamen Rider W Fang Joker
If you thought Skull was awesome, then you will be blown away by Kamen Rider W Fang Joker. This guy is absolutely amazing and awesome looking and a host of other adjectives that I'm too lazy to write out right now. He is by far the best form of W and comes a host of accessories. He has extra pairs of hands, a shoulder pad with a removable shoulder fang, an armlet with the arm fang, and an anklet with the leg fang. I would say that this figure is a MUST for any fan of W. If you can't afford to do like some people and buy all his forms, then this guy should fit into the budget somewhere. He's selling out fast, so you should pick him up quickly if you haven't already.



Day 7: Kamen Rider Kuuga Ultimate Form
For the final day of Figuarts Week, we end on a high note with Kamen Rider Kuuga Ultimate Form. This guy is AWESOME to a level that can only be compared to IXA, Rising IXA, and Fang Joker. He comes with several pairs of hands and a Kuuga thumbs up hand as well as a second face so that you can switch between Red Eyes version and Black Eyes Version. I definitely recommend him for Kuuga fans or anyone who wants one figure of each Rider. If you buy no other Kuuga figure, you need to get this one.



Hope you enjoyed a Jedimon Figuarts Week!
