TAMASHII NATIONS - Kamen Rider Saber - Kamen Rider Blades Lion Senski, Bandai Spirits S.H.Figuarts Action Figure

The media could not be loaded. Really good

Great figure bigger than the previous lines of kamen riders that came before it, it has great articulation and is fun to pose around

Let get the negatives out of the way. The most notable ones are the lack of hand guards. In order to switch the hands, the guards needs to be remove also, so that you can put onto the other hands. Another issue is the chest armor is too bulky. Because the chest armor contacting the Ride Book so many times, the Ride Book keep flying off from his Sword Driver. Ankle joints isn’t the greatest when it comes to posing the figure, but that’s the only limitation that he has. For a Kamen Rider that they’re known for using swords, he has a hard time holding the Seiken Nagare (Water Sword). There are other issues I had with this figure but fortunately it is only from my copy. The figure has some paint mishap on the shoulder and the box was damaged from shipping, so displaying the box is out of the question.Now the Positives. This figure is really nice. The details, the paint work, and the sculpting. Those are S.H. Figuarts at its finest. I really love the white decals on his thighs, around his chest and the shoulders. The sword, Seiken Nagare, is absolutely beautiful, despite not a fan of its design. He comes with two versions. One he could wield it, and another meant to insert into the belt. If you’re a fan or you’re an eagle eye person that knows about the series, you would only use one version of the sword. There’s another sword, but in red. That is for Kamen Rider Saber since he has only one version of his sword. Would I recommend this figure? If only you’re a fan of Saber or you like Blades. However if you’re a newcomer or you just come upon this figure not knowing this series, I would let this a pass or get it at a lower price. As of this writing, the prices of this figure is $40. That’s slightly lower than the retail price, so might as well get it.

Figure itself is good and feels nice to handle and pose. Comes with what you'd expect, that being the sword, some alternate hands, and a couple other lesser accessories.The seller, Oneport-JP, however, sent it with absolutely no padding whatsoever. It didn't even have a secondary box. That it arrived intact is solely the result of luck. I left feedback to this effect on their page, but it mysteriously disappeared within a week. Not shady at all.

It’s okay, but a few dents to box

Excellent product. Highly possible, and show accurate. Comes with a small Seiken Rekka as well.
