Legend Rider History No. 10 - Kamen Rider Kuuga Mighty Form Figure










It is the tenth installment of the popular Kamen Rider Series of Tokusatsu shows which suggested Legend Rider History No. 10. This Kamen rider set a new milestone as well being the first of the series to air entirely in the Heisei period. The Legend Rider History series is an all new vinyl figure / sofubi series that sets the bar for retail release vinyl figures of our favourite Kamen Riders.

Unlike previous Rider Hero Series releases, these figures feature powerful appearance recreated with digital sculpting and most of all, more paint detail. Each figure stands roughly 18cm tall and is a static PVC vinyl figure. It features articulation via a rotation in the shoulders and the waist. This is Kamen Rider Kuuga in his base form, Mighty Form. The design has a lot of red, mainly focusing on the upper body and I really like those insect eyes that's stay true to the original. It features articulation via a rotation in the shoulders and the waist.

The quality controls have been quite improved in this figure you’re publishing here pal!... The sculpt and paint job look so smooth, I still remember some of the figures you have been publishing recently, based on character of the Tokusatsu genre and they had some issues in these aspects here and there... I guess Bandai is putting more effort into make better products and that’s a sensible approach bearing in mind the challenges in the future of the toys and collectibles industry (also for other industries, of course), due to the fact that we are in the middle of an economic recession that could last longer than expected...

I also feel that quality to budget figures have improved so kudos to Bandai... You are right that recession is expected to last and we better save up.

Yes Dennis, agree with you. The insect helmet design is what kamen rider's essence is all about.
