I really don't understand the gripe with the black joints either... I personally don't feel they take away from the figure at all. It's just one of those things where they only have black joints at Bandai since most all of their KR SHF figures have black undersuits. It just makes more sense to give Double the same treatment instead of going out of their way to produce a bunch of different colored joint pieces. Thankfully there are some good paint pens out there that have been mentioned for people that really have an issue with them. I think that CycloneJoker is one of my favorite Figuarts, at least of the ones I own. If I had IXA, W could team up with him and my Kuuga Mighty. He's one of my faves too. Just something so awesome about his simple design ^_^
 

It's because 1 side of Double is supposed to be full-green whereas the other is full-black. All the other SHFs had symmetric colors left to right.
 
Well, W is the first fully colored Rider...I mean, like I said, the only time there's ever any Black is when Joker form is involved.

Name another Rider other than W that isn't fully black.

Blade, Garren, and Leangle are a few, though they probably won't get any Figuarts treatment anytime soon. Ryuki is another, but he's getting the Figma treatment *curses under breath*...

^ I can already foresee that it will have black joints again... :redface2:

Well, I think it will be beautiful though.

If it costs as much as fangjoker does then they may keep the joints the color it should be. It only needs to be colored on one side too.
 
They just had to screw with W's design by getting rid of the antennas and giving it spastic shaped eyes again. Now it looks bald.

Let's see if SHF can do what it did with Decade CF again, by magically making terrible suit slightly better.

The reason they do the black joints on W is not because they don't have other colours available. Another Agito has brown joints. It's because it's difficult to do it in a matching metallic that doesn't scratch off.

FangJoker is just white. It's a lot easier to blend in with than the other 5 metallic colours. And even then, the white we've seen of the joint doesn't match the main body anyway, since the prototype had a pearl coating on the Fang side.
 
Never judge a suit till it's been in action. Besides I liked Decade complete for it's function and it's design matched what it was made to do.
