SIC Den-O Zeronos
Zeronos is a character from Zeronos. from what I gather, he stands alone (as he is not a variation of the main protagonist). You can read more about him here
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kamen_Rider_Zeronos
I believed him to be fairly ugly at first so I avoided purchasing him until I noticed something that I will mention later.
AS with all of the SIC Den-O figures, you get two figures. One is a Kamen Rider and the other is one of the series gimmick "Imagin" (I won't even bother to try and describe what they are actually) which in this case is Deneb which you can read more about him here. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Imagin#Deneb
First lets go with Zeronos first form, Altair.
AS with all SIC figures, he is highly detailed, but features some new articulation improvements over the rest of the line (as do all Den-O figures and beyond). The most notable areas are in the feet, hips, and pegged hands instead of ball joints.
Diecast is found in the wrist bands and leg armor.
Another note, they decided to mold his shoulder armor into is arms which limits his arm movement quite a bit. They could of least given him rotatable arms but not its one solid piece.
Accessories include the ZeroGasher which can can also double as bowgun and be split in two for storage on Altair's belt. We also have a compartment for storing cards complete with a little card....how cute.... lol. He also comes with a spare head that represents something about train tracks (its detailed in the link I provided above)
Overall he's kinda mehhh looking but cool at the same time.
Next we have Den eb, equally as detailed but the head can only move left to right and barely at that!
He has some nice translucent armor on though, and his cloak is made of soft flexible PVC so he is more poseable then Altair.
Deneb comes with his own accessories as well, however, most of them are throw away (at least to me anyway). He comes with a wicker basket and a bunch of lollipops as well as a drawing pad uhhhhhhhh I never watched the show but I'm sure they have something to do with it and that's pretty said. In any case I didn't even bother taking them out of the box so no pictures of that crap!!
Other than that, all he really has is his hands which can shoot bullets and apparently smoke pellets. He comes with a bunch of swappable hands and one pair has hinged knuckles.
Vega is the combined form of Altair and Deneb (if you hadn't guessed by now for some reason lol). Vega retains many visible parts of Deneb and his cloak turns into a cape. Vega also gets the benefit of the hand guns as they become shoulder mounted called Zeronos Nova. He is also more powerful in this form but becomes slower. Still, he looks bad a$$! I'm surprised he didn't turn up as a web shop limited, making this combo set the best bang for your bock as you get three figures for the price of one (err two) and i got this on sale for 40 bucks so cant be beat!
I highly recommend this figure if you can find it (sold out at HLJ now) even if you don't know the series or didn't like it (I have heard many condemning KR Den-O) so get to steppinnnnn!
