Yah, these look fun as all hell. With all the license-farming Disney is allowing over in Japan with Marvel and StarWars, is there any way one of them damn companies could do 18th Marvel since nobody else seems to give a rat's ass? |

Bandai's Motion Figures of a few years ago were super fun, so I imagine these will be too. They were also made to be played with and the limbs didn't pop off all the time like the Marvel figures. I hope we'll get multiple assortments. |

Rider X have a knife that pulls out of his belt, or is that the throttle handle for his dingus? What are we looking at pricewise? |

I'm with Redmao. If these are anything like their Motion Revive Series, then they'll be great. And they're a good bit sturdier than Microman. I'd gladly give any of these a home if the price is reasonable. |

The only place I've seen them so far is Amiami. About $35 USD for a box of 10. http://www.amiami.com/top/detail/detail?gcode=FIG-COL-9004&page=top%2Fsearch%2Flist%3Fs_keywords%3Dshodo%24pagemax%3D40%24getcnt%3D0%24pagecnt%3D1 They had some Dragon Ball Z figures a few months back in the same format. http://118archive.com/archive.php?q=shodo&cq=line Those seemed a bit smaller especially due to their huge hair styles.

Since they're 10/case, I'm wondering of there's gonna be a couple of surprise repaints or if the ratio is 3x/3x/2x/2x. All that artic, *and* they come with gum. Even if it's some weird Japanese squid nuts flavor, that's still a fantastic value. |

 I wonder if the different hands mean they all come with swappable hands or if those are variants. |

Probably come with swappable hands. |

$35 for a box of 10 is almost shockingly reasonable. I don't remember the Motion Revives being that low-priced. At the risk of sounding overly cynical, are these things decent quality? |

They look like they all have the same bottom half and arms. Only molding diff torsos and heads, plus being disposable-mold gashapon is where the savings might be coming into play. Fwiw, I'm getting a 5400JPY = $43.44USD conversion, but that's still a great deal. |
