RMC : Kamen Rider RYUKI

Yes, with the release of Vol. 7 of the Rider Masked Collections, i've completed all the Masked for Kamen Rider Ryuki series. All 16 of the masked was release sequentially since vol 1 to vol 7. The hardest to get is probably Ryuki Survive and Ryuga Masked.


Top Row (Left to right) :
Knight (Vol.1), Knight Survive (Vol.6), Odin (Vol.3), Ryuki Survive (Vol.7) & Ryuki (Vol.1)

Middle Row (Left to right) :
Taiga (Vol.1), Zolda (Vol.2), Gai (Vol.4), Ohyja (Vol.1) & Raia (Vol.6)

Bottom Row (Left to right) :
Femme (Vol.3), Verde (Vol.3), Ryuga (Vol.7), Scissor (Vol.5), Imperer (Vol.7) & Alternative Zero (Vol.6)
Now, if only they will made a ABYSS from Decade series then it would be great.

RHS - Kamen Rider RYUKI

Started watching Kamen Rider again when i stumble upon the 1-shot of "Kamen Rider Ryuki : 13 Rider" vcd by accident. From there on, i was hook by the series and the new unique design of all the rider feature in the show. Later on, i found those RHS (Rider Hero Series) Sofubi in departmental store which was selling at RM39.90 each! That was in 2002 and was slowly accumulating them 1 by 1. Finally complete them all in 2005 with the last figure of RYUGA which i got it from Singapore.


Now i present the complete (excluding Japan Limited editions) Kamen Rider Ryuki RHS. Consisting of all the 13 riders, 1 Alternative Zero, 2 Survive Mode rider, 2 Blank Form rider and a 2pcs boxset Special Editions.

Front View of the packaging (Japan version) with numbering from 41-47 (for Ryuki series). Number 40 and below belongs to previous Show (Previous RHS post ). Each packaging showcase the Rider photo and its name on it. Plastic windows on the packaging also show 3/4 of the rider figure in it, which allow collector like me to choose the figure with the best paint job. With a $40 price tag on it, i wanna get the best looking Rider without defect.

RHS 44 - Kamen Rider Ohyja

RHS EX - Kamen Rider Taiga
RHS EX - Kamen Rider Imperer
RHS EX - Kamen Rider Raia
RHS EX - Kamen Rider Femme
RHS EX - Kamen Rider Verde
RHS EX - Kamen Rider Ryuga
RHS EX - Kamen Rider Alternative Zero



Limited Edition :
RHS EX - Kamen Rider Ryuga VS Ryuki (2 pack boxset)
RHS EX - Kamen Rider Ohyja - Blank Form



The limited edition 2 pack consisting of Ryuki VS Ryuga was an unexpected find. Wasn't sure to get it then but am sure glad i did. Ryuki in this boxset feature a transparent Red as compare to the single box which is solid red. The Ryuga is a variant of the single box where the shoulder shield is attached. Both Ryuki and Ryuga comes with its Sword.

The Ohyja Blank form is a limited edition whereby it is grey in color. In the movie, Ohyja  card deck was destroy thus killing its contract monster and revert Ohyja to its Blank form.

Am glad that ive manage to complete this series and am satisfied with the result. Once display, they looks stunning. Kamen Rider Ryuki would be my favorite rider series. Thanks for looking.

Spawn : Blood Axe + ThunderHoff


Once upon a time and not so long ago in 2002, McFarlane toys release in its Spawn series 22 which feature a Dark Age theme of the VIKING AGE. Comes a deluxe boxset which comprises a Viking age spawn by the name of BloodAxe together with his steed name Thunderhoff.

BloodAxe spawn stand 6 inch tall with articulation on neck, shoulder, elbow, wrist, waist, hips, knee and feet. Comes with a shield and Spike mace as accessories. Capable of riding Thunderhoff with ease.

ThunderHoff comes at 9inch in length from head to tail. Articulation on all 4 legs, hoof and neck. Comes with saddle, head masked and others. 

One of the best series release and with demand until now. Attentions to Detail and sculp are simply phenomenon and awesome at that time and still is today. Hopefully Mcfarlane toys will product spawn figure again in the near future. Until then, cheers.
