Kamen Rider Ghost GC01 Ghost Change


Kamen Rider Ghost was last year's (2014-2015) Kamen Rider series. Tenkuji Takeru died on his 18th birthday and is brought back to fight the evil Ganma.  This series was fun but I loved the designs more than the overall story. The hoodie gimmick is a brilliant way to cut down costs on all the different rider forms and works much better than you'd expect. This figure comes with Ghost's Ore Damashii default form and his GanGun Saber.  The Ghost Change line is a few steps up from sofubi figures and not quite as slick as SH Figuarts.




















The basic "Parka Ghosts" as the hoodies are called lack the ability to lower the hood due to restrictions of the toy line but in a future gallery we'll see how Bandai addresses this issue.  I love how the bright orange with the black doesn't come across as too Hallowe'en. The silver highlights probably help with that. And all ghosts have horns jutting out of their faces right? Somehow it all works.
