반다이 Figure-rise Standard 가면라이더 블레이드 모델 키트 - 2024년 10월

The articulation is fantastic for the price, and the metallic red plastic really pops once assembled. My only small gripe is that a couple of the sticker edges were slightly tricky to align perfectly, but it still looks great on my shelf.

It took me a full evening to assemble, but the detail on the card suit and the sword’s metallic finish are absolutely worth it. The fit is tight and clean, and once posed, he holds his stance perfectly without any wobble.

The joints are surprisingly sturdy for a kit this size, and the blade’s sculpted ridges catch light exactly like the show’s suit. Took me about two evenings to snap together, and the color separation means I didn’t need a single sticker for the torso.
