【Kamen Rider Kabuto】One of the new Kamen Riders appearing in V-Cinext "Kamen Rider Kabuto 20th: Inheritor of Heaven"! Unravel the secrets, the transformation, and all of Kamen Rider Atlas with S.H.Figuarts!

In the world of “Kamen Rider Kabuto”, yet another Rider radiating an intense presence has been added! “Kamen Rider Atlas” appearing in V-Cinext “Kamen Rider Kabuto 20th: Inheritor of Heaven” will be three-dimensionalized from the S.H.Figuarts (Shinkocchou Seihou) series. Speaking of Kabuto, it is a work featuring impressive, stylish battle scenes and refined designs motived after insects, isn't it? If a new Rider adorning the 20th anniversary of such a series appears as a discerning figure, there is no way you can miss it. Moreover, this time, newly designed parts are also adopted to express the figure unique to Atlas, rather than merely being based on existing Riders. Not to mention fans who have followed the series for many years, it is an item we want people who became interested through this work to pay attention to as well.

Looking at Kamen Rider Atlas, what first captivates the eyes is surely the three large horns towering on the head, isn't it? This bold silhouette is precisely the greatest point that impresses the existence of Atlas. The characteristic mask is carefully crafted down to details, and clear materials with transparency are used for compound eyes. Furthermore, since even fine patterns visible in the depths are expressed, it is a finish that makes you want to bring your face closer and gaze at it. And the combination of white armor and black bodysuit cannot be missed either. Against the rigid impression of armor, different textures are given to the suit part, and visual contrast stands out. Especially the black parts incorporate details differing from conventional Kabuto-lineage Riders, letting you feel a unique atmosphere while belonging to the same fictional universe.

Once you have the figure in hand, you want to strike a cool pose after all, don't you? What exerts its power there is the design conscious of human body structure unique to Shinkocchou Seihou. In addition to proportions conceived from the skeleton, mechanisms capable of flexible movement are mounted on each joint. Even when moving arms and legs, unnatural gaps are less conspicuous, and being able to make poses while maintaining body lines is attractive. Replacement wrists are prepared in 3 types on the left and 4 types on the right, also supporting the impressive “pointing to heaven pose”. Standing upright to enjoy the imposing figure is good, and making a stance as if cutting out a single moment during battle is good too. Because different expressions of Atlas can be brought out depending on the way of decorating, even the time thinking of poses seems enjoyable.

The presence of transformation belts is indispensable when discussing Rider charms. The “Atlas Zecter” attached to Atlas's waist incorporates gimmicks allowing you to enjoy fine changes. If using replacement parts, switching between states with left and right horns open and closed is possible. Furthermore, because the central horn has a movable specification, variations can also be added to expressions around the belt. When crafted down to such small parts, you spontaneously want to observe thoroughly, don't you? Not only the sculpting of the head and the entire body, but places where breadth of play is prepared even in equipment symbolizing the Rider is a pleasing point as a collection item.

This time's Atlas can also be enjoyed in combination with “S.H.Figuarts (Shinkocchou Seihou) Kamen Rider Kabuto Rider Form 20th Anniversary Ver.” sold separately. If using the attached dedicated holding hands, having Atlas hold Gun Mode and Kunai Mode of the “Kabuto Kunai Gun” attached to the Kabuto side is also possible. If creating a figure holding weapons, power differing again from bare-handed posing can probably be produced. Furthermore, if lined up with other Shinkocchou Seihou Kabuto series, the fun of comparing differences in respective designs is also born. Despite the size of about 145mm in total height, this product is equipped with precise sculpting using PVC and ABS, substantial wrist parts, and even belt replacement gimmicks. It is a figure perfect for those who want to enjoy the world of “Kamen Rider Kabuto 20th: Inheritor of Heaven” in their own collection space!
