as some people said before, you don't have much option in how to re-imagine W

so true

 

[Kevthepanda]

Not a fan of the W so far, especially after seeing clearer pictures. It looks like the shoulder pads has melted, and the face kind of looks like it's been dipped in acid.

Though judging from the joint, it'd be awesome if the scarf is compatible with the SHF somehow.

And the memories are coloured.

I think that has to do with Ando making it look SIC, with the imperfections in the sculpting. Might not be everyones cup of tea, but it is certainly mine.

To me all SICs look like they took the design and dipped it in acid to make it look drippy and then made them bulkier to crete the 'super imaginative' look :laugh:

Hmm Oooh! The memories are coloured. That is all. I shall wait till I see more photos of CJ to make a decision, but my lovely SIC Den-O Wing Form has just flown in. Got it for a decent price. hehehehehhe

I agree.

Doesn't excuse it for not even trying to re-imagine W, heck, we could have had simple exaggerations here and there like the shoulder pads, eyes, head sculpt, etc. They could have made it more buglike IMHO.

 

[NotHyper]

Making it more buglike would be untrue to the character. Double isn't an insectoid design aside from the eyes. Much like Faiz, the goal is to give the body some extra details to emphasize those qualities since there isn't an obvious motive to take advantage of. Even the better resolution pictures are blurry, so we might not be able to see all the details.

That said, I'll be the first to admit this is a pretty lazy release though. Hopefully the Machine Hardboilder comes with it. I've bought every main Rider consistantly since I started collecting back when Hibiki came out, and I even put up with the cheap release that was SIC Kiva, but I won't buy an SIC Double if it's just him standalone.

And off topic: Anyone know where I can get this SPC/Workshop KK Cyclone I? I just got a Cyclone II for dirt cheap, and I'd like a complimenting model for my Rider 1.
