[Photoshop] SHF Kamen Rider Gold Drive

SHF figuarts kamen rider gold drive reverse

Actually I would prefer him to be called "Reverse Drive" for 2 reasons:
  • homage to Reverse Flash (similar color scheme)
  • he's enemy to KR Drive, so he's doing everything opposite to the hero, thus the name "Reverse Drive(-ing)"

Agito: You OK? Here's a mask for you.
Goku: How bout you?
Agito: Dude, I'm always masked on!

Due to the forest fire in Indonesia, Malaysia is currently having "haze season".

For those who are staying in the affected country, please remember to wear a face mask whenever you're outdoor, unless you're a Masked Rider of course :P

[Review] Quicklook on SHF Kamen Rider Drive type Dead Heat

Introduction

shf figuarts kamen rider drive type dead heat review

Here we have again, a Rider form which goes berserk easily. This time around, we have Kamen Rider Drive type Dead Heat form. This form was originally created to enable Drive to fight against Heart Roidmude's Dead Zone ability. But, in exchange for the tremendous power, Drive has to bear with the risk of going berserk everytime he uses this form.

Frankly speaking, I have no idea why I bought this SHF: I didn't plan to complete SHF Drive series, and I have no affection for this form. Guess it just became my habit to buy whatever new SHF releases (and I really need to fix that habit TT_TT). Anyway, today I'm just gonna do a simplified review on this SHF as there's nothing much to comment on it:

[Haul] SHF Mashin Chaser


Finally it's here! The villain that looks more Kamen-Rider-ish than the Kamen Rider himself: Mashin Chaser. I was supposed to get this beauty a week ago, but well, PosLaju happens.

Anyway, glad that I've PO this guy. Really a must for all SHF collectors. If I have time probably I'll make a review on this guy.

Lastly...

[Review] S.H.Figuarts Kamen Rider Drive type Speed + 1st Release Bonus

Introduction

shf figuarts kamen rider drive type speed review

Breaking the norms of riding motorcycle, Toei introduced a new 2015 Kamen Rider who doesn't have motorcycle license, but only drives a car, known as Kamen Driver Kamen Rider Drive. As usual for the Neo-Heisei Riders, Toei tends to overly-magnify their motif. We already have a good example of big orange armor for Gaim, which is fruit themed. This time around, Toei took it to another level by simply hanging a tire on Kamen Rider Drive since it is car-themed.

Story-wise, the series takes place after the Global Freeze, a global catastrophe where mechanical lifeforms known as the Roidmudes went berserk and attacked mankind. By using the Drive Driver & the Shfit Cars, a young police officer named Tomari Shinnosuke henshin-ed into Kamen Rider Drive and began his mission to defeat all the 108 Roidmudes.

After airing for about half a year, Bandai finally released the SHF for Kamen Rider Drive:

[Review] S.H.Figuarts Kamen Rider Psyga

Introduction

kamen rider psyga faiz axel form 555 movie paradise lost
Psyga vs. Faiz Axel

Popularly known as Kamen Rider 何潤東 among the Chinese Kamen Rider fans, Kamen Rider Psyga was one of the movie exclusive riders who debuted in Kamen Rider 555 movie: Paradise Lost. Paradise Lost tells the alternate ending of Kamen Rider 555, where the world was dominated by Orphnoch (the monsters), after Kamen Rider Faiz was defeated and gone missing. 

In the alternate universe, two belts were invented for the Orphnoch's uses, namely the Belt of the Sky: Psyga Driver, and the Belt of the Emperor: Orga Driver. Worn by a foreign Orphnoch named Leo, Kamen Rider Psyga demonstrated its tremendous strength and speed over his predecessors by defeating Kamen Rider Kaixa and giving a hard time to Kamen Rider Faiz. Of course, justice always prevails in Kamen Rider shows. Near the end of the movie, Psyga was defeated by Faiz and turned into dust.

SHF Kamen Rider Psyga was first shown in the Tamashii Nation 2012 event, but it only got released 2 years later after the exhibition. Like any other popular SHF, the market price of this action figure sky-rocketed over the past year. Wonder why this SHF has so much charm? Read on to find out why.

[Review] S.H.Figuarts Kamen Rider Den-O Wing Form

Introduction

shf figuarts kamen rider den-o wing advent
Advent... To the top...
Debut in Episode 24, Kamen Rider Den-O Wing Form made an awfully brief appearance in Kamen Rider Den-O series. But of course, after going through the troubles to make a new suit for Den-O, Toei had made sure that the efforts didn't gone wasted by giving this Rider additional screen time in the subsequent Den-O movie productions, such as Saraba Den-O and Onigashima Warship.

On the other hand, our beloved Bandai also made sure that they've fully utilized this market opportunity by releasing SHF Masked Rider Den-O Wing Form (abbreviated as SHF Wing Form hereafter) in November 2014. It's a good news for me coz Wing Form has always been my favorite Den-O form. But the bad news is, SHF Wing Form is released as Tamashii Web Exclusive SHF - which means it's more expensive for overseas collectors like me to get hold of this beauty.

Anyway, here's the review for the SHF.
