Toy Review: S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Stronger Charge UP

After a super electric dynamo has been implanted to our hero, he gains an upgrade form. Bandai made it sure that we also have this in the popular line up; this is the S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Stronger Charge Up version. Even if the figure uses the frame of the base form, this has a big white band on the chest and a chromed horn. Other features remain like the big “S” and his transformation device Electrer.

For formality, a muffler is attached on his neck and because it is on a rounded peg, this can move freely in different directions. Other inclusions are 6 extra hands and the lightning effects. The effects are more of an orange plastic make and are placed on the figure’s wrist by placing them on top of the other.

I actually like Stronger in this form as the colors are bright and the chrome alone just takes the cake. Besides this is a titular first form change in Kamen Rider history, and paved the way to other upgrade forms like Black RX, Kuuga and the new riders. Added power means added style, and this representation of Stronger emanates that. More to this from the video review below.
