He's the reason I got into Kamen Rider. An absolute legend in every way.

Both, actually! I gave him an SHF Upgrade neck peg, but I shaved down the side of the neck guard to allow for more dynamic poses.

Oh, got ya! Yeah, the line is insane for sure when it comes to detail. The Saber figures (especially Dragonic Knight) are some of my favorites because of it. Here's the unedited shot for a better look!

Hello there! My name is Optive and I post action figure (toy) photography. I'm a big fan of Kamen Rider, Transformers, Gundam, and Tokusatsu.

Just finished building one of my most sought-after model kits, the Kotobukiya #Medarot / #Medabots Arc-Beetle. What an absolute piece of junk. The arms are held by weak ball joints, the hip joint's peg broke, and the plastic feels cheap even when compared to an Entry Grade kit.

Today's #deskbot is: Dr. Wu (Transformers): • Dark Sky (Skywarp) #transformers #maccadam #トランスフォーマー It has the Core-class Skywarp's transformation, but the figure is just too small to be fun to do. Staying in robot mode forever. lol

Today's #deskbot duo are: Dr. Wu (Transformers): • Fire Ladder (Inferno) • Crane Hook (Grapple) #transformers #maccadam #トランスフォーマー Fantastic figures. My one issue is that the joints for the backpack/head assembly are VERY TIGHT. Careful when first transforming these if you pick up a set.
