Review: KR Hibiki Belts & Instruments

[ZeroKun]

I'll present my review once I get them, but due the lack of a camera I can't post any pictures, but thankfully there is already a japanese review. All hope goes to me since HLJ has it in low stock =\

I'm going to do my own review of Todoroki's Wrist Device too and Ibuki's Henshin Device. I didn't have a enough money to get Todoroki's Guitar but when I get it I'll probably will add it.

I should be getting my Todoroki wrist device and Ibuki's henshin device friday...saturday at the latest. The first thing I'll do is write a review right when I get it. So look out for it then. :198:

Henshin Kigen Onjo comes with:

1 Kigen Onjo
1 Wrist strap
1 Disc Table
1 Disc animal joint
1 cap (For the disc animal joint)
1 instruction guide



The very first thing I did was put the Kigen Onjo on my wrist. Bandai Japan made the wrist strap very stretchy, and it fit my wrist although it was very tight. The Disc animal joint was very annoying to have on the wristband so I took it off after a while. The Kigen Onjo come with batteries -- it takes those coin batteries that you would use for a watch. It has two LED lights in the eyes.



I turned it on, and it makes a short guitar note. The sound is very nice on this, but it doesn't light up much. I pulled on the lever and the cover popped up making a opening noise.



I started playing with the string switch. It makes various guitar notes and solos and lights up with every note.



I don't have any disc animals so I'm using a CD as a substitute. You take the cap off from the disc joint and put on the disc table. Then you put the frog disc animal on top of the disc table. Then you replace the cap on the disc joint and turn it right which locks the disc animal and disc table so they don't fall off. You would turn the disc table by hand for it to spin.



So I'm giving the Kigen Onjo (out of 1 to 10) a 6 because of detail and sound. It doesn't have many features, and I'm a little upset because I think you should be able to wind the disc table for the animal disc to spin. I didn't like how you have to spin it by hand.

If you have any questions or want any more pictures of Kigen Onjo, I would be happy to take them. I'm posting my review of Henshin Onibue onteki at Sentai Manila if anybody wants to read it (hope that was OK to say that, MJRM).

Thank you.

Henshin Onibue Onteki

Onibue Onteki comes with:

1 Onibue Onteki
1 Disc Table
1 Holster
1 Instruction guide



When I first opened the box to Onibue Onteki, I liked the size of it. It comes with batteries (like the ones you would use for a wrist watch). The eyes have LED in them.



When I first turned it on, it made a screeching noise. I then pressed down in the mouth piece (pretending to blow in it); it makes a whistle sound. There are two buttons (Starting To Activate the Henshin Phase) near the bottom of Onibue Onteki. When pressed the 2 buttons and the cover of the face opened and made a beeping noise. Then I pretended to blow in the mouth piece (pressing down the mouth piece). This activates the Henshin Phase, making a screeching noise and a trumpet solo while lighting up at the same time.

Now on to the Disc animal. I don't have any disc animals. You just put the Disc table on Onibue Onteki and then put the disc animal on it (with clips on the bottom to secure the Disc table and Disc animal). You spin the Disc table by hand to make the disc animal spin.



The holster is really cool. You can attach it to the DX Henshin Belt or to any other belt. The Onibue Onteki fits really nice in the holster, and it stays secure.



Over all I give Henshin Onibue Onteki (out of 1 to 10) an 8 for detail, sound, and size. It doesn't have many features. Bandai Japan could have used a better gold color for it. I like the holster a lot because you can clip it to any belt.

If you have any questions or want any more pictures, I would be happy to take them.

Thank you.

A couple of peope have asked me about the size of Kigen Onjo. So I thought I would post a pic of it next to a dollar so you can get an idea of the size. I think Kigen Onjo toy is bigger then the prop on the show.

Usually the Henshin devices are about the same size reguarding the toys vs the props. Hell, in the case of Sentai, they just use the toys AS the props in most cases.
Of course there ARE exceptions to the rule though...especially in Kamen Rider. From what I've seen though, it looks like the sizes between the toys & props of the Henshin devices are pretty close.
