Like all of the products that Medicom Toy puts out, the Kamen Rider collectible is constructed with an intricate level of detail that it makes it well worth the cost.
Perhaps better known to Americans as the Masked Rider, the manga character that was created by artist Shotaro Ishinomori first appeared on screens in the early 1970s, after which it continued to evolve and gain more popularity. In order to illustrate its longevity, Medicom Toy offers the Kamen Rider collectible in two different variations -- showing the character in its original costume as well as one that was later contrived for a different series.
Those who purchase the Kamen Rider collectible will be able to display it in a number of orientations as well, given the many flexible joints that Medicom Toy includes on the model.
