Kamen Rider OOOs and Fourze Reactions

OOOs Final Episode: One of the best final episodes I've seen in awhile. Not one thing really felt off. They had the guts to do what needed from a story telling aspect and it work perfectly. SPOILER WARNING FROM HERE ONWARD- When Ankh and Eiji do the TaJaDor combo for the final fight Ankh is the voice for the belt. And his spirit(...or something?) is fighting also. During Dr. Maki death he stayed completely in character even when turning into a black hole he yells "I am complete". Great final episode to great show. Will be missed.

Fourze episode 1: Well after coming off a high from OOOs this just so so. I don't hate in fact I really like the belt. But the main rider is just so annoying. Its not like in Den-o were he's a wimp the guy is actually obnoxious. He walks into the class writes his name as big as possible and the says he going to friends with everyone.

Fighting: I'll give the show props on the fighting. The various switches add a cool dynamic to the fights. I love the drill kick he does with the rocket.

Final Thoughts: I want the show to succeed and hope to see further development in the characters. The fighting great, the belts cool, and the heads a little funny looking.

Kamen Rider ooo and Gundam Age: Toy News

OOOs: Bandias' soft vinyl OOOs figures have taken an expensive turn when they announced that they would sell 119 forms of Kamen Rider OOOs. The price is 124,950-yen:US$1,548. This set is so large that they are only able to sell a hundred of them. 


Gundam Age: Bandia has announced that a build your own action figure campaign for Gundam Age. These will be like three piece models that you will by separately to make you own mobile suit. Bandia has said that these will not replace the normal models. But a Master Grade for the Age Gundam is unlikely.

Gundam Age Reaction

Gundam Age has been officially announced for some time now. And most fans by now have seen the trailer. The series is somewhat looking like Macross mixed with a dash of Gundam. The fan reactions so far are bad so far. No one wants to see Gundam 'evolve' into a Macross parody. I personally think Gundam is suppose to involve humans fighting humans. Not humans fighting U.E. over earth. These aliens have dragon mechs and they want to take of this hell hole.

The suit looks nice but that A in the middle just ruins it for me. The alien mechs though look great and I look forward to building a model of one of them. I will be back as more informations is released.

1/144 Scale Gundam 00

Build: The 00 took me about three hours to build and sand. If you want the 00 to be as show-accurate as possible you will panel line and paint the jewl, crest.

Poseibility:

- ball jointed GN Drives
- ball jointed shoulders
- swivel on the upper arms
- hinged elbows
- hinged lower arms

- full motion thighs
- double jointed knees
- full motion ankles

Value: As great as this model is,the 00 raiser has more accesoriesfor only a slightly higher price.

Display: Once finished the 00can accomplish almost every pose from the show. If you have the stand even better.

Invest in some gundam markers to make it look best.

Kamen Rider Decade TV Review

This Rider show is one of personal faverates from the Hesa Rider era (I have no idea if i spelled that correctly).

Decade henshi(s) look great with one of my fave-rate belt voices. His suit design annoys some people because...it`s pink. That through me off to but after awhile the color grows on you. His head has this interesting thing where cards are in his head and visibile in the eyes.

The story has some interesting twists that make enjoyable for the adult-fans. I not going to spoil anything so I`m not going to tell you about the alternate worlds *WHOOPS*

Another thing good about the series is that it is completly on the internet including the movies.


Bottom Line: See it. Some people were a liitle mad about Blade world but the rest is spot on.


Yea for card Riders.

Robot Damashii Strike Freedom Gundam

Quite an interesting figure. The figure is so delicate that if it wasn't for the plastic quality it would snap. Also it uses this yellow that just looks horrible, with random sparkly bits in the plastic. Also the pivot on the joint is badly visible in the back.

I brought this in America so this might be where all my complaints come from. And another factor is that the only place you can get this in American is in Disney World so the bad quality may have come from there.


 Its show accurate so if your a Seed fan get it. If not you don't need that badly.
