Zero the Silver Fanged Knight.
This is Zero from Garo. I have yet to watch the series despite being given a copy of the first four episodes. Anyway, I'm told it's a great, more adult, Tokusatsu. You can read more about the character and general series here.

The Garo line is modeled after the Infamous SIC figures. So that means detail and diecast but limited mobility. Zero lives up to these indefinitely.
Each of the main characters in Garo come with the human figure and then replaceable armor through part swapping. So we begin with human form Rei Suzumara.
Umm, yeah he's pretty ugly, and doesn't look anything like his onscreen counterpart. His outfit is pretty detailed though.
He also comes with two short swords complete with scabbards that the swords fit into. Unfortunately, he has no way to hold the scabbards both in his hand or on his body so a pretty much wasted feature.
By removing the head, legs, arms and torso, you can change Rei into Zero.
Again, very detailed and well painted.
Zero comes with two swords that are made entirely out of diecast.
Too bad, he can't hold them up for nothing due to the joints in the arms not being strong enough.
The swords can connect at the hilts but this was messing from my figure.
Other than that, he is wonderful to look at but that about it. oh, and he comes with a pendant that can be worn as a necklace if you so choose.
