Figma: Kamen Rider Wing Knight [Max Factory]

So a couple a days ago this Figma was put up for pre-order on many online sites and man I was so glad! I was glad because I didn't put my pre-order in for Figma Dragon Knight and now I can kill two birds with 1 stone. Kamen Rider Wing Knight Figma is planned to be released some time in late December for a retail price of 3050yen, while Dragon Knight will be released a month prior. So since both are coming out near the Holidays these will be great gifts for fans and loved ones. Being that it's a Figma you can pose Wing Knight in any number of poses from the show, using aspecial soft materials for certain parts amazing Kamen Rider-style action poses can be created without compromising the style or proportions of the figure! Including to this the figure comes with Knight Visor, Blackwing Cape, Knight Lance, 10 different option hands and a figma stand! Hopefully for those who buy these Dragon/ Wing Knight Figmas, the other Riders from the show will be made too so we won't have to wait for the Figuarts of Ryuki. Anyways down below there are more pics of the figure!

[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

Kamen Rider Dragon Knight wins Emmy!







That's right, not only was it nominated, but Dragon Knight managed to win the daytime Emmy for Outstanding Stunt Coordination! Pretty good for a show that's been canceled 6 months. Congratulations to the Dragon Knight team! The photo is from Steve Wang's facebook, clipped by AllieRX of HJU.
