Hell yeah! I love S.H. Figuarts. Currently have around 34 of them, forget the exact count.

WOW, Thats alot.  I've just started collecting them. Being a hard core Kamen rider fan, soon as I got my hands on one I was hooked. Do you know if Bandai plans on releasing all the heisei Riders? I see that faiz comes out in September. I wonder if they are going to do Kaixa and Delta. |

Wow! 34 of them is a lot! I've got a load of the Souchaku Henshin figures (close to 60) but only about six of the Figuarts...I didn't realize they even made 34 different ones! I was just in Japan a few weeks back and saw a lot that I didn't even know about (and many of them were pretty expensive because I believe they were exclusives) but 34, man!

Speaking of Souchaku Henshin. Are they in scale with SH Figuarts? Any pics side by side?

I don't have any pics side by side handy (I've seen someone do a comparison though - maybe on this site, not sure), but the Souchaku figures are a little shorter than the SH Figuarts. They're also a bit chunkier - when you see them side by side you can see how much slimmer the SH Figuarts figures are.
They're both cool - I like them equally. You lose the nice die-cast weight with the Figuarts but you gain a bit more poseability and sleekness.

Thanks for the compliments guys, but it's not that big a deal! There's little I've been collecting lately besides them, so if I pre-order well in advance from Japanese sellers (mainly AmiAmi), I get what I need before it sells out or becomes more expensive. Focusing on Kabuto at first helped too because only two Zectroopers were exclusives, none of the Riders.
As for Figuarts vs. Souchaku Henshin, most of them are out of scale, but not Den-O and Kiva. Their bodies and joints, especially for Kiva, are almost identical to the style of Figuarts. The biggest differences - aside from the obvious stuff like the armor or clear compound eyes - are with the hands and feet.

But yeah im not really into SIC too much I only have three and they dont really fit in with the Figuarts. If you had SIC Emperor Kiva I would be all over that though. |

Hyper Kabuto is also being released around the same time as Kiva Emperor and Dark Kiva. Kamen rider Eternal is going to be Exclusive with a January release. Bandai is killing my pockets with all these figuart releases  Thanks for the pics! |

They are all web exclusives. New Den-O is a yahoojapan exclusive and the others Yuuki and Gaoh are Tamashii web exclusives. All three riders in the front are very expensive. A little too expensive  |

Gaoh's not that bad - he's more typical of Tamashii Web aftermarket prices, like Skull in that same pic. It's New Den-O and Yuuki that really get insane.
