Huh, I had the exact opposite experience. I thought Garo and Zero looked great but were both hampered by bad QC issues (Garo's biceps can't rotate, Zero's can't stay attached to the shoulder) while Dan was the only one that had perfect and stable articulation. Never got Kiba because the Garo subline had a 1:2 success ratio at that point.I've got a number of the SIC KTs. Sometimes the styling works, sometimes it doesn't. Faiz looks quite cool with a more "robotic" suit. Agito's works quite well. But I don't think the restyle of Den-O Sword Form works. I'm quite "meh" about Hibiki and Blade's new looks too. However, I got the Garo Figuart and found it seemed really plain compared to when I picture the Garo suit in my mind. Bought Zero and Kiba in SIC KT form and they are both lovely. Then I bought Dan and while it looks lovely you really can't move the joints at all. Overall the GARO figures come across quite well (notably the Makaikado toyline for the latest series has taken on the SIC styling).
I also think that Den-O is one of the coolest looking figures in the line while Agito looks just a little bit too goofy to take seriously (it's mostly the head). I'm with you on Faiz and Blade, though.
