Kamen Rider Wizard Flame Style

Let me start off by saying that I love Kamen Rider Wizard. The show is really fun and I love his design. I also really love S.H. Figuarts. They’re the best action figures around! But this… This is just sad.

This is S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Wizard. At first glance, he looks alright. Sure, the proportions are a bit off, but the details look great. His shiny parts are really shiny, and the black parts are a beautiful matte black!

He also comes with a large amount of accessories! It was nice of Bandai to toss in so many hands and weapons, including his WizarGunSword and bonus parts. Heck, there’s even a Tamashii Stage included in the box! 

The problem is that this toy is so abysmally awful that he can’t even use any of this stuff. Wizard likes to fall apart. In fact, he does it so much that I had to stop taking pictures entirely because I got SO ANGRY.

There’s tons of articulation here, but you can’t move him without him coming apart completely. The Wizard Driver won’t stay attached to the belt, his waist won’t stay attached to his torso, his shoulderpads won’t stay attached to his arms, and his skirt won’t stay attached to his waist. It’s AWFUL.

I was able to get him into a couple of poses, but that’s all that my patience would allow me.

Don’t buy him. Stay far away. In fact, if anyone tries to sell him to you, you should punch them in the face and tell them they’re wrong. I’m going to go take a bath now. I feel dirty from looking at it.
