Just out of interest, anyone owns a Bandai Soul of Popynica PX-02 Cyclone?
I can never really tell how big it is by pics on the net..
How much diecast is there in this baby?
The light gizmo on the bike..It sounds cool..but how good is it really?
And what about the figure? What is he made out of? How poseable?
I ahve seen them relatively cheap (around the $30 mark)
Anyone keen to share some light?
Cheers

this item is a good size. the figure is around 5 inches tall and the bikes length is around 6-7 inches. the bike is part plastic and diecast, i was surprised at how heavy it was. its not as light as i thought it would be. althought the light on the bike isn't very bright, it does look cool for display, it came with batteries. the figure is made of plastic. the boots, hands and belt are all seperate and its very detailed. i have not taking mine off the trees because i just display the whole box with items inside styrofoam. where did you see'm for $30??  i got mine at the local toy swap meet for $65 and i thought i had a deal...  its a very high quality piece so i didn't regret the money i spent on it~ |

Well, My Cyclone arrived today. And I must say I am relatively happy with it. Yes, the bike in my opinion could have had more diecast content...but the level of detail and spring-loaded shocks make up for it. They should have made the shell around the chassis out of metal.  The light gadget is pretty cool. It just gives it a more realistic feel to the bike. The figure is a mix feeling. It is very poseable, but the vinyl clothing gets in the way. Although it makes it very realistic, theres too much of it once you put the belt and the armour on. Also the velcro strip is too big and distorts the whole "look and feel" of the figure. However, with patience, and after a few adjustments, the figure poses very well. Good for display  |

Great price for that toy! I want one myself. congratulations! I was still browsing around for a good price..The $30 mark was for a used one with missing parts..I ended up paying $39.95 for it, and thats without shipping on top. With shipping to Aus, it ended up costing me $58USD |

Must have missed this post the first time around. I picked one of these up Sunday for $27.00 at a local shop. Masked Rider is very flexible and able to strike cool poses on bike. What a great price for such a classic character.
