Review: Trans Armour Kamen Rider Figures

Magne Clothes DX Magnetic Jiraiya

Here's my 1 yen Magne Clothes DX Magnetic Jiraiya Review.

Magne Clothes DX Magnetic Jiraiya (AKA ARMOUR TRANS)

This figures comes with:
1 Jiraiya Figure
1 Manual Winch
2 Suction Cup
1 Pulley
1 Magnet Board
1 Jiraibuster
1 Jiraimask
1 Jikoushinkuuken
1 Jiraiya Metal Cutter
1 Yamaji Touha
1 Shoulder protector
1 Jiraiya suit
1 Power shoulder

This figure is 18 years old and it still is very pose-able and durable.
The armour on the figure does not fall off as easy as some of the new
armour trans figures. Though I would say the new armour trans figures
are more pose-able and durable. The figure has 16 points of articulation,
most new armour trans figures have 24 points of articulation.

Jiraiya has 4 magnets. 2 in his feet, 1 in his stomach and 1 in his back. All of his weapons and armour are plastic. I wish they would keep the armour plastic like on this figure, it does not weigh the figure down and the pieces do not fall off.

Jikoushinkuuken

Connecting the Magnet Board to Jiraiya. After connecting the magnet board to Jiraiya you can connect the hook of the Manual Winch which has 2 suction cups. If you are wondering what the Manual Winch is, it's the big black box thing with a hook. Then you can hook to that magnet board.
Then you can do this:

Connecting the Pulley to the magnet board.

After it's connected.
If you are wondering what the pulley does: It can slide Jiraiya accross the rope on the manual winch

GAVAN!

Jikoushinkuuken


This is what I think of you Gavan


I give this figure a (1 out 10) 9. Just because Jiraiya is awesome and because this figure can hold up. This figure is really nice for one of the first armour trans figures, they have come along way. If you like Jiraiya then you might want to consider getting this.
How much does this figure cost: 9,800-21,000 Yen ($85-$195)
Where can you get it this figure: Only on Yahoo Japan

If you have any questions feel free to ask:thumbs:

OMG.....that is sooo badass! :buttrock: I want one! :laugh: Nice review, man!

Stronger Charge-Up


In Box

Kamen Rider Stronger focuses around Shigeru Jô, who joins the Shocker-esque organization "Black Satan" so he can have power to avenge the death of his friend (who was, in fact, killed by Black Satan). Shigeru, however KNOWS that Black Satan killed his friend, and uses the powers they gave him to fight against them. This became, Kamen Rider Stronger


Henshin!

What you get:

Shigeru Core Body
Wrist Armour
Chest Armour
Henshin Belt
Helmet

Yep, the earlier lines didn't typically give a lot of accessories

Close-up

It is interesting to note that Kamen Rider Stronger is the first Rider to not be a grasshopper, but actually have a definite basis of design. Stronger is based off a Rhinoceros beetle. The first Rider to stray from the grasshopper design was rider Amazon. However, his design has no definite basis. Some fans believe he is based off a komodo dragon, some think a pirranha, some think a chameleon, and some believe he may be a combination of several different animals.


Beside Stronger (normal)


Close-Up

It's important to note that, if you are able to find an older Souchaku Henshin, like from " Kuuga", "Agito", or "Classic" line, that you don't expect the same things from it that you would from say the "Kabuto" line, or even the "Ryuki" line. These older Souchaku Henshins are much less poseable, and much more, primitive, for lack of a better word. If you move them around to much,the joints in their arms and legs may get loose or wobbly. If you're buying these, you're buying them for display, not to play with. Why? Well, they're becoming more and more rare, and acquiring them tends to get expensive. In all honesty, most Souchaku Henshins aren't to be played with. They're supposed to be displayed with an action pose. If you play gently with some of the newer ones, they might be ok, but I can't imagine these toys sell very well with young children. I've seen children play with toys, I remember how I used to play with toys, these things wouldn't last a WEEK in a child's care.


He's down for the count!

Price: Varies, depending on seller.
Availability: Like looking for a prostitute who is a virgin
Durability: Not nearly as good as the newer lines
Poseablity: See above
Is it Worth it?: Assuming you can fucking find one, yeah, it is
Overall: 6/10. I'd really like to give it a 10/10, but that would be bias. The good thing about this line is the armour stays on pretty firmly, unlike some newer ones... Garo, I'm looking at you!. However, these toys can wear with overuse of posing and play, and they're not even close to being as poseable, so it has to get a 6.
