[Max Factory] Figma Kamen Rider Dragon Knight




Like usual, I'm on the net searching for stuff to share with you guys. Eventually, it lead me to this. A figma Kamen Rider?! Not the usual ones, it's Dragon Knight we're talking about here. From the American produced "Kamen Rider Dragon Knight" comes a figma of the main character, Kit Taylor, transformed into his Dragon Knight form!

Using the smooth yet poseable joints of figma, you can act out a variety of different scenes.
Various body parts have been produced with the help of special flexible plastic, allowing proportions to be kept without compromising posability! Posing Kamen Rider in action scenes is as simple as ever!

A selection of weapons are included and can be equipped, allowing various battle scenes to be recreated.
A total of ten optional hands are included, which includes an Advent Card-holding hand. A poseable figma stand is included, which allows you to pose him in a number of different ways!


Personal thoughts on Kamen Rider Dragon Knight:
People keep saying that most tokusatsu remakes turn out a failure, but those people are wrong. Besides the hit kid's TV series, Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, Kamen Rider Dragon Knight is a hit and proves to be better than the original counterpart, Kamen Rider Ryuki. Why I say so? It's the storyline that attracts me. Unlike Kamen Rider Ryuki, Kamen Rider Dragon Knight had a better finale. Action wise it was good too. I know that there are some tokusatsu remake haters out there, but it's better you try out the show before you hate something (unless it's for a good reason).
Now, back to our main topic, the figma! This figma will be produced by Medicom Toy. It'll be released End of November. It'll cost about 3048yen (tax included). The size of the figure is approximately 140 mm in range. Made out of ABS and PVC materials.

So, overall the figma is really show accurate. The body proportion is well molded too. None of the details ae lacking. And for paintjob, I can say it's nice. But it's up to you to decide, whether you want it or not. :P
