Well I'm still waiting a confirmation from japanesetoylink.com about the original wave.

Meanwhile I ordered wave one and two of the motion revive figures of ebay this morning. I can't wait to pit Momotaros against some cobras hehe.

A Deneb figure would be the most amazing thing EVER.

Only if he came with a basket of Deneb Candy.

That comes out of his crotch.

Allright! looks like I got mine first! Haven't opened it up yet, but I should have some pics up tonight.

After opening them, my case count is as follows

-1x Gatack
-1x Den-O Gun form
-1x Den-O Wing form
-1x Momotaros
-2x Zeronos Altair form
-1x Zeronos Vega Form(most accessories of all the figures)
-1x Zabee(smallest weapon out of all of them)

Bastid! I'm still waiting on my postie to swing by, but I was expecting them Friday so they better be here today.

If I'm lucky I'll see mine by the end of the week.

On the good news side I did receive an order confirmation from jlt for the original wave (Ryuki, Faiz, Blade, etc) which should be shipped any day now, so I should have them by the end of the month.

Is this the green/black guy with the weird silver tubes over his shoulders (crosses fingers, toes, and eyes that it's not)?

nah, that's his Vega form. Altair is the less flashy version. Your case may have a different loadout though. We'll see.

Oh, and I'm very disappointed by Zeronos' sword(which came with Altair form). In the show the thing is a huge two handed broadsword. The MRS version is small, about the length of Zeronos' arm and is only large enough for one hand to hold it and on top of that, the handle is too thin to really the hands to hold it decently. Thankfully, this is the only weapon I'm disappointed in. Besides, Zeronos uses the weapons' gun form more often when in Altair form anyway.

Oh, and Momotaros, it seems does not include a regular open right hand. Just a pointing one and the coffee cup one while he has more normal open left hands. kind of lame if you ask me.

Gatack and Altair are very nice figures though. My favorites of the bunch.

That's what freaks me out with these boxsets. Never knowing what we'll get.

I hope I'll have at least one of each.

I'd be *very* surprised if the factory case pack-outs are actually different here.

And my frickin' Post Biatch didn't bring me my set today. Bastard! I better not have to wait for after T-Giving or else I'll be unhappy and sulk a lot this weekend. And it's a long one.

All right, I'm gonna post some pics. I'll save the more in-depth post on them for tomorrow since its late and I'm tired. enjoy the pics for now. And the things they're saying probably don't make much sense unless you've seen the show.

Edit -> looks like I can only do three at a time. Well, guess you'll just have to look at Momotaros for a while. And if you look closely, that is in fact an in scale Kamen Rider slot machine.

Nice pics!

Looks more like Momotaros would be saying: "Ore disco!" in that pose hehe.

Okay, so, Momotaros. His sculpt isn't bad, but he doesn't look nearly as cool as the Armor Trans version. Overall though, he's a decent figure, he just has one problem. His hands. See, he comes with four hands, but the problem is, his right hands are only the one holding the cup and that pointing one. No regular open grasping hand. His left hands are more normal: one open grasping hand and one open hand to place under the coffee cup. He also doesn't have his sword, which isn't nearly as annoying as not being able to pose him in action poses due to a lack of decent right hand options. So, if you're looking to put Momotaros in more actiony poses, you might want to consider replacing his hands with some red Microman hands. Its what I did for Kamen Rider Ryuhki and it worked pretty well there.

Up next, we've got one you may find to be one of the disappointing figures in the wave. I'm not saying he's a bad figure. He's quite good actually. Its just that he doesn't have much in the way of Accessories. Zabee only comes with his tiny little Zabee Zector which plugs onto his left hand. He's got two grasping hands and one closed fist(which I'm posing him with). The Zabee Zector is tiny. A definite choking hazard and probably very easily lost. You might want to glue it onto the hand of yours. I'm not to sure the mounting point is accurate. I'm pretty sure his zector mounted onto his forearm, not his wrist in the show, but at least this way you do get some better action poses out of him. He's still a fun figure and one of my favorite designs out of Kabuto.

Yah, Zabee's still the one I want most. More pics, plz! Since I don't know these guys from Adam, I still don't know which one you got duped.
