One of the first Showa riders to come back to the S.H. Figuarts is Kamen Rider 1 or Ichigou for the Shinkocchou Seihou line. Out of the bat the most prominent change since the initial release is the zipper line on the torso and the weathered look of the green parts of the chest. The chest armor does have some additional joint to have more leeway to move the arms. There are additional cuts on the shoulders as well and the entire body is more proportioned to his head.
This set has 8 extra hands, 1 more scarf and a pair of antennas just in case you mess up the ones already on his head. One pair of hands are actually holding hands in the event that you also wanted to pick up his bike called the Cyclone. The extra scarf is more to have a less wind effect and placed on top of his chest by adjusting the scarf that wrings around his neck.
Aside from not having the kick effect, it is also missing a sword like the old version. Despite not having these included on this premium version, this has more human-like poseabilities and feels more accurate since this is now under Shinkocchou Seihou. Finally the silver paint on the lines and any part of his body looks better and less flakier which is a very good sign for longevity.
