S. H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Skull Renewal Review *UPDATE*


Hi, GBatz here, returning this time for the review of the S.H. Figuarts Shinkocchou Seihou Kamen Rider Accel or simply S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Skull Renewal Version.


The box or packaging is still has the same format of all the Shinkocchou Seihou line.


Body and Articulation: Skull has the same base body and points of articulation like the S. H. Figuarts Kamen Rider W Cyclone Joker renewal. The main differences are specified on its details. Regarding this, the details are true to the actual suit of The Boss.


Accessories: Skull has loads of accessories. These include the following: 2 Fedora hats ( Normal, and Damaged/Torn as seen in the "Begins Night" arc), 2 Scarves (rested, and flowing/dynamic), Skull Magnum, SkullCrystal Alternate head, Skull Memory, Gaia Memory suitcase, a Double Driver, and lots of hands. The sets of hands are same sculpt as W's except for one pair shown at the top. The one used for holding his hat.


Each hats are included with a clear plastic caps to prevent scraping the paint on the head

Normal hat


Rested Scarf


Flowing/ Dynamic scarf




Skull Magnum has a working gimmick if you want to pose him in a Maximum Drive. 
Note: Skull Memory can be inserted inside the Skull Magnum 



Suitcase: As fore-mentioned above, Double Driver and the Gaia Memories can be inserted in the given slots inside the suitcase. This may help securing the Gaia Memories to avoid the losses of the said accessories.

Note: The Double Driver provided along with Skull's accessories is sculpted in one piece.

      

How to change heads? Simply separate the front and back of the normal  mask, un-peg them and replace it with the SkullCrystal ones or vice versa. Be reminded that the masks tend to fall off if not pegged correctly.
UPDATE: The SkullCrystal tends to get loose when attached once. So be wary. 


"Now, count up your sins."

Overall: Bandai did not disappoint when it comes to giving justice to Skull's character in a figure form even on its earlier release. The details are on point especially the tattered and dirty effect on the scarf giving more badass look on the character

If you are a Kamen Rider W fan or a Kamen Rider fan in general you MUST not miss this figure. Being a regular release is a bonus.

A solid 4.5 Stars out of 5 

Hope you enjoy this review, and keep collecting. :)
