Toy Review: S.H. Figuarts Cyclone

The S.H. Figuarts Cyclone is the first Kamen Rider machine given to Kamen Rider 1 by Professor Midorikawa. Its form is lifted from an old 1965 Suzuki T20 and then modified its cream body shell to match with the Kamen Rider series. This bike has the Tachibana Racing logo on the front, back and near the engine block. In addition are the spoke tires and 6 mufflers as than the original design which has only 2.

Included in the set is an extra seat pan, easily replaced by a T-tab, an extra pair of handlebars that are being held through a C-clip. Though the motorcycle has a twin kick stand, this can also be held up by a clear stand.

The first rider machine is simple and matches well with the S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Old ver. The front suspension functions like a real bike and the tires are true-to-life. Overall the bike is absolutely lightweight but somewhat a dismay since I can’t find die-cast parts on this unlike past rider machine releases. This is a real must have for Showa rider fans.
