S.H.figuarts Kamen Rider OOO Tatoba Combo
Kamen Rider OOO is the eponymous Kamen Rider of Kamen Rider OOO (obviously).
Eiji Hino is a seemingly carefree hobo who only cares about having a pantsu for the next day. That is, until a strange disembodied monster hand hands him the OOOdriver, enabling him to turn into Kamen Rider OOO. Together, they fight Yummies created by the Greeed.
OOO Tatoba is the default form of OOO, using the Taka, Tora and Batta medals.
Pic related. You count the medals, 1, 2, and 3.
S.H.figuarts OOO Tatoba comes with optional hands, Tora claws, and a Medaljalibur sword.
The OOO-scanner mounted on his belt is detachable and can be wielded to reenact his Scanning Charge.
TAKA-TORA-BATTA! TATOBA~TATOBA~TATOBA!
OOOs, with his Tora Claws equipped.
If anything, Tatoba has some really great eyes.
Sadly, the figure is far from perfect. He’s glossy whereas the suit isn’t, his headsculpt is somewhat off, his neck joint is pretty loose, and most notorious is the limited range of motion on his ankles. Unlike the hinged ankles of previous Figuarts, Tatoba uses normal balljoints. One way to get around it is to pop the feet off slightly, to give his feet more range.
Also, 1st release Tatobas came with a bonus Ankh, who included a special stand.
Ankh (or UNKH, as it’s spelt here) is actually fairly alright. If you want a more accurate hand-Ankh, there’s always the Ankh Stand Set.
Oh yeah, Ankh happens to fit some Revoltechs too.
But honestly, if Tatoba wasn’t a main Rider’s main form, I wouldn’t have gotten him. This is an example of a Figuart that was rushed out to coincide with the then-current season. He’s not bad, but he’s certainly not great either.
