Toy Review: S.H. Figuarts Gouraiger Set (KabutoRaiger and KuwagaRaiger)

Following through Hurricane Red’s release is the two-pack set, S.H. Figuarts Gouraigers, namely Kabuto and KuwagaRaiger from Ninpuu Sentai Hurricanegers. or Crimson and Navy Thunder Rangers from Power Rangers Ninja Storm. Their beetle forms are highlighted with horns on their helmets, meshed arms, gold shoulder pads and forearms and logos on their chest. But unlike Hurricane Red, their Gorai Changers are absent on their wrists.

There are some similarities on some weapons they carry such as their staffs called the Ikazuchimaru. These come in different forms, cross mode and spear modes. A similar pair is included to holster on the back of the figures. But KuwagaRaiger has more accessories such as 10 hands, while Kabuto has 8. KuwagaRaiger comes with his personal weapon called the Stag Breaker, the combination with the staff called the Ikazuchi Breaker and another part to attach on Kabuto’s Horn Breaker to become the Double Connection Double Gadget.

Even if we are presented with a lot of accessories, the set seems to be lacking the Circle Moon Mode for the Ikazuchimaru. It might be a frowner for some collectors, but you cannot argue enough the number of accessories the set is inclusive with. I believe it is enough. As for its presentation, I can’t think of anything that would shy you away since they have the same frame and poseabilities as Hurricane Red. I do love everything about this S.H. Figuarts offering and I highly recommend this as well for Power Ranger collectors.More of this from the video review below.
