I have a weird question, I saw a figuarts of Shinken Gold and realized “oh he’s gonna eventually get another figuarts as Solomon”. So what actors have the most figuarts toys of them minus forms

If Solomon even happens at this point...

I'm trying to think of what the answer would be here; because since there's not a huge amount of Sentai figuarts it knocks out some of the biggest contenders like Hiroshi Miyauchi. The infamous first achiever of the Rider/Sentai/Ultra trio doesn't have any of his roles made as Figuarts! All that's coming to mind right now are actors with two different roles, such as:-

... but technically... TECHNICALLY... even though it feels like cheating?

you could say this guy wins it

[timotey]

Oh, I finally met Genta AKA Shinken Gold! And I love him! Sure, he's very... excitable, that's true. But! All his possibly annoying traits are more than balanced out by his endless love for Takeru. Because for Genta, his lord is his Take-chan is his lord, period. And that is a very important distinction from how the other sentais view Takeru because when the time comes, Genta will not hesitate and he won't budge on who his lord is, period (again). And it will be Genta who will first realize the depth of Takeru's feeling of loss. And the actual state of Takeru's mind. And how it could end if they don't do something.

Genta's love for Take-chan is so pure and honest and good! The fact that he became a samurai not out of a sense for the greater good or whatever - though he does want to fight evil, of course! - but because of a silly pinky promise he made with Take-chan when they were little kids, a promise that he would become strong and fight at Take-chan's side. That's just so sweet!*

*It kinda reminds a little of Gokaiger where the sentais had also known each other for a long time before the beginning of the drama so that there was no getting-to-know-each-other period, they already trusted each other completely because they had been through hell and back together and it was us, the viewers, who were getting to know them.

BattleBlades – Koshi Sori O Kissaki Katana

The Koshi Sori O Kissaki Katana from BattleBlades is a particularly beautiful Katana that is built for serious, heavy cutting with its blade exhibiting excellent sori curvature and a solid spine to ensure it strikes with mass, velocity and ferocity. The blade is forged from 1095 high carbon steel which has been clay-tempered in the traditional manner to imbue it with a hardened edge and a genuine hamon in the Sanbon-suki style. The enlarged and elongated O-Kissaki tip and prominent Shinogi-zukuri blade geometry further emphasize its intention as a powerful cutting Shinken. The blade was finished with a gleaming high quality polish.

The hilt of the sword is centered around a tsuka grip of hardwood which is fitted with blackened genuine rayskin and bound in premium cotton ito wrapped in the katatemaki style. The tsuba, fuchi and kashira components have detailing picked out in bold silver and gold hue detailing. The seppa and habaki are cast from brass. The sword is matched with a handcrafted hardwood saya with a fine polish and finishing gloss. It has been partially inlaid with rayskin which had its crevices filled with layered black lacquer which was then polished flush with the rayskin to create a brilliantly accented finish of excellent quality and craftsmanship. The koiguchi, kurikata and kojiri fittings are crafted from well-polished buffalo horn and a finely knotted premium sageo cord completes the saya and sword.

Included is a silk sword bag and a manufacturer’s production certificate.

Handmade brown hardwood Saya is partially covered with white stingray skin and has been treated with 4 layers of lacquer to highlight the wood’s beautiful grains. Polished genuine black buffalo horn koiguchi, kurikata and kojiri with premium grade sageo concludes the whole.

Comes with an embroidered BattleBlades Inc. sword bag and a certificate of authenticity.

Do you know what Fairy Tail Parfum is? Well, I dunno either, but, according to their page, they do cosmetics and perfumes in collaborations with different animes and series. They have a deal with Toei so they could do some collabs with Super Sentai!

Some time ago they released a perfume inspired by Shinken Red and today-ish they announced they completed the set for everyone else!

Shinken Blue, Pink, Green, Yellow, Gold, Princess Shinken Red (Kaoru!) and Juzo (!!!) join the line. I'm always fascinated with this kind of collabs and, if you are as well, you can check the products in the link above. I'll post the images below.

They also have perfumes inspired in Gokai Red, Black Condor, Deka Pink and Deka Yellow in a 2 pack, the 5 main Donbros (Meaning, everyone except Jirou) (Poor Jirou), the Sono trio in a 3 pack (POOR JIROU) and Zenkaiser Black (Jesus, they did him dirty).

Again, I'm always fascinated when they do the equivalent of the Shampoo for kids with cartoon characters in it but for adults, so, I might inform if they complete some lines or release new ones.

It just... make me happy.

Sadboi's Incredibly Strange Multifandom Adventure - Chapter 32: A Cubehead's Guide to Bushido

The Guardians of Synthesis, now with Metta at Sadboi's side, found themselves in the world of "Samurai Sentai Shinkenger." The air was thick with the scent of ancient incense, and the landscape was a vibrant tapestry of feudal Japan meets modern technology. The French Narrator's eyes gleamed with excitement as he explained their new mission.

"You must unite the five Shinkengers and restore balance to this world," he said, gesturing dramatically. "Their power, like yours, is rooted in the bonds they share. But darkness threatens to tear these bonds apart."

Sadboi's eyeholes widened in shock, "What? Why? Aren't they supposed to be a team? Ain't that the whole point of a Sentai?" Her tone was one of genuine confusion, her eyeholes forming into a pair of question marks.

The French Narrator nodded solemnly. "Oui, but as with all great powers, it is the strength of their hearts that truly unites them. They face a foe that feeds on discord, the Shitari of the Sky. Only by reinforcing their bonds can they overcome this menace." His words hung in the air, each one a challenge that the Guardians knew they were ready to face.

Sadboi's face fell, her eyeholes returning to their typical circular shape. "Shitari of the Sky, huh?" she murmured, her pastel blue form looking a tad paler than usual. The gravity of their mission was not lost on her. "So, we gotta make friends with these Shinkengers and help them get their groove back? Show them the way back to their own bonds?"

The French Narrator's expression grew gentle, his digital waves rippling slightly. "Exactly, ma chère. They are lost, and it is your light, your harmony, that will guide them."

With a determined nod, Sadboi turned to her companions. "Alright, let's do this! We've got a world to save and some bonds to mend!" Keito, now more comfortable with his Kamen Rider Synthetix powers, gave a firm nod, his armor's red streaks pulsing with excitement. The Guardians of Synthesis, now a formidable and diverse group, set off into the vibrant land of Samurai Sentai Shinkenger, ready to face whatever challenges lay ahead.

The group spread out, searching the bustling streets of the Shinkenger's world. The fusion of traditional and modern was a sight to behold; samurai armor adorned with neon lights and futuristic tech clashed with ancient Japanese buildings, giving the city an electrifying vibe. They split up into pairs, with Sadboi and Keito sticking together, their vibesense a powerful tool in navigating the emotional landscape.

Sadboi, trying to keep her mind busy from worrying, was telling Keito about what she knew of the Shinkenger universe.

"So, the Shinkengers are like, these super cool samurai guys and gals that fight these big, nasty monsters called 'Negative Syndicate of the Hundred Eyes', right?" she began, her eyes lighting up with excitement. "They have these amazing transformation sequences and their own cool little catchphrases. And, oh, they've got this big, robotic thing called Shinken-Oh, which is like, super dope! It's formed from the core five's mechas, a lion, an eastern dragon, a bear, a gorilla, and a turtle! The core five transform using these flip-phone calligraphy brushes, and the gold ranger transforms using a sushi flip-phone! And the gold ranger has his own mecha that looks like a lobster or a shrimp, and it has its own robot mode! There's also a whole lot of other mechas, like a beetle, a swordfish, a tiger, a squid, and an ox! They also use these discs that represent different elements and stuff!" Her spiel never seemed to end, but Keito knew that it helped her from worrying too much. Despite her focus seeming to be elsewhere, Sadboi's vibesense was on high alert.

Keito eventually asked Sadboi, "So, what's the plan of action, Sadboi?" His vibesense was also tingling, but he knew better than to let it overwhelm him. Tsukasa had been trailing behind the two, intrigued by how Sadboi was dealing with her fears.

"Well," Sadboi began, "We gotta find each of the Shinkengers before the Syndicate does. If not, then we're gonna have a much more…violent? task ahead of us. Sometimes violence is the answer if the peaceful route fails. But let's just hope we don't gotta engage in a fight." Sadboi's gaze bounced around yet again, but this time, it stopped on something that caught her eye.

They arrived at the bustling center of the Shibaura City, where the Shinkengers often fought the monsters of the week. "We must be close to something, yesyes. Hopefully, at least." Sadboi murmured, her eyeholes narrowing as she focused her vibesense. Suddenly, her skin pulsed with color as she detected something.

"Keito," she said urgently, pointing at an alleyway where the vibe was strongest. "I think I've found Takeru Shiba, the ShinkenRed. His emotions are…complicated. He's hiding something, but he's also incredibly determined. He's the leader, so we should be able to get a better picture of the situation yesyes?"

Keito nodded, his eyes focused on the alleyway as he transformed into Kamen Rider Synthetix. "Let's go," he said, his voice resonating with a hint of anticipation. They dashed down the alley, the sound of their footsteps echoing against the narrow walls.

As they turned a corner, they spotted Takeru Shiba, dressed in his civilian clothes, his face etched with concern. He was talking to a group of scared citizens, trying to keep them calm amidst the chaos that had been plaguing their world. His vibes were a whirlwind of fear, anger, and resolve.

Sadboi's eyeholes widened as she murmured, "a-ha, there he is." She and Keito approached Takeru, her vibesense tingling with the intensity of his emotions. He looked up at the sound of their footsteps, his eyes widening in surprise.

"Who are you two?" Takeru demanded, his hand instinctively reaching for the Shinkenmaru at his side.

Sadboi stepped forward, her pastel blue eyes earnest. "We're the Guardians of Synthesis," she said, gesturing to the group behind her, which included Keito, Tsukasa, and their new ally, Metta the Metroid. "We're here to help you and the other Shinkengers. We've heard about the trouble with the Negative Syndicate."

Takeru's grip on his Shinkenmaru tightened, his gaze flickering over the unusual assembly of heroes. "Guardians of what now?" His skepticism was palpable, but the desperation in the air suggested that he was willing to consider any help he could get.

"We come from different worlds," Keito began, his vibesense picking up the rising tension. "We've come together to help maintain balance and harmony across the multiverse. And we believe that by working together, we can overcome this threat."

The French Narrator, ever present, chimed in with a knowing smile. "Ah, young Takeru, your heart is filled with the spirit of the Shinkengers, but it is also clouded by doubt. Allow these travelers to prove their worth, for they carry a powerful message of unity and peace."

The Shiba family's legacy was one of honor and valor, but Takeru's own journey had been fraught with hardship and loss. He eyed the Guardians, his mind racing. Could they truly understand the gravity of their situation? Could they offer the support they so desperately needed without bringing more danger upon them?

Sadboi took a step closer, her voice soft. "We've faced our own battles, and we've learned that sometimes, the strongest weapon is empathy. We won't force our help upon you, but we're here if you need us."

The French Narrator nodded in agreement, his eyes shimmering with wisdom. "Indeed, the path of peace is not always clear, but with open hearts and united spirits, even the darkest shadows can be dispelled."

Takeru took a deep breath, the weight of his decision pressing down upon him. He looked at the Guardians, then back at the terrified civilians huddled in the alley. He knew that his world was at a crossroads, and that he could not face this enemy alone. With a firm nod, he sheathed his weapon.

"Alright," he said, his voice strong and steady. "We'll work together. But if you're not what you claim to be, I won't hesitate to send you back where you came from."

Keito and Sadboi shared a relieved look, knowing that this was their chance to prove themselves. They had encountered many challenges across the multiverse, but this was a test of their ability to connect and understand those they were sworn to protect.

The group made their way through the city, the French Narrator occasionally whispering tales of the Shinkengers' history into Sadboi's ear. Her eyes lit up with each new piece of information, eager to learn more about the heroes she was about to stand alongside. As they approached the Shinkenger base, the air grew heavy with anticipation. They were about to join forces with some of the bravest warriors Japan had ever known.

The French Narrator's voice grew serious. "Remember, my dear friends, the power of harmony is not found in might alone, but in the bonds we forge with those around us. Let us tread carefully, for we are about to become part of a story much greater than ourselves."

Sadboi nodded, her heart racing as they stepped into the base, ready to face whatever the Negative Syndicate threw at them. They were the Guardians of Synthesis, and together, they would ensure that the light of hope never faded from this world.

The base was a fusion of ancient Japanese architecture and futuristic technology, a reflection of the Shinkengers' dual nature. The team greeted them with a mix of curiosity and wariness, their eyes lingering on Metta, who hovered protectively beside Sadboi. The French Narrator, ever the diplomat, stepped forward to introduce them, explaining their origins and purpose.

Takeru's expression softened as he heard their story, recognizing the echoes of his own struggles in their words. "If you truly wish to aid us, we shall not turn you away. But know that our enemy is cunning and will stop at nothing to claim the Earth's energy for themselves."

The Guardians of Synthesis exchanged determined glances, understanding the gravity of their newfound alliance. "We stand with you," Keito said, his vibesense pulsing with a fiery resolve. "We've faced many battles together, and we won't let you fight alone."

Sadboi stepped closer to Takeru, her cubehead tilting slightly as she spoke. "We've learned that sometimes, the biggest battles are won not with fists, but with open hearts and the willingness to listen. We're here to support you, to learn from you, and to fight alongside you for what's right."

The Shinkengers looked among themselves, the air thick with tension. Finally, ShinkenBlue, Chiaki Tani, spoke up. "If you're willing to put aside your differences and stand for the greater good, then you are welcome among us." The others nodded in agreement, their expressions a blend of hope and wariness.

The French Narrator, ever the optimist, clapped his hands together. "Excellent! Now, let us prepare to face the Negative Syndicate. But first, a brief lesson on the ways of the Shinkengers and their mighty origami."

The Guardians gathered around a table laden with ancient scrolls and holographic displays, their eyes wide as they took in the intricate folding patterns and the sheer power contained within the origami. They studied the Shinkengers' transformation techniques, the nuances of their combat style, and the deep spiritual bond they shared with their Shinken Spirits.

As they learned, Sadboi couldn't help but feel a sense of kinship with the warriors before her. They were not so different, after all. Each of them had been forged in the fires of adversity, and each had found strength in the bonds they shared with their allies.

Keito, his eyes never leaving the scrolls, asked Takeru, "What is the most important aspect of being a Shinkenger?"

Takeru paused, then looked up, his gaze meeting Keito's. "It's the belief that together, we can overcome any challenge. That's what makes us strong."

Sadboi felt a warmth spread through her, and she knew that this was a bond that transcended worlds. They were not just a group of misfits thrown together by fate; they were a force of unity, ready to face whatever the multiverse threw at them.

The French Narrator's voice grew solemn. "Now, the time has come to test your mettle. The Negative Syndicate grows stronger by the minute, and the Shinkengers need your unique talents to restore balance to this realm."

The Guardians of Synthesis nodded in unison, their determination unshakeable. They had come this far together, and now, they would face their next challenge as one.

The battle against the Negative Syndicate was unlike anything the Guardians had ever faced. The enemy's power was vast and dark, a stark contrast to the vibrant, life-affirming energy of the Shinkengers. But as they fought side by side, the Shinkengers began to feel something new: the warmth of friendship, the strength of unity, and the unshakeable belief that together, they could conquer any darkness.

Sadboi's vibesense led them to the heart of the enemy's lair, where the source of their power lay. It was a monstrous creature, twisted and corrupted by greed. As the Guardians and Shinkengers faced off against it, they could feel the very fabric of their worlds being torn apart by the creature's malice.

The French Narrator, ever the sage, reminded them, "The power of harmony is not something you can defeat with brute force. It is something you must embrace and wield with the utmost care."

Sadboi took a deep breath, her past traumas momentarily forgotten in the face of the present threat. She focused her vibesense on the creature, feeling the tangible anger and greed that fueled its monstrous form. "Keito," she called out, her voice steady despite the chaos around them. "I need you to trust me."

With a nod, Keito transformed into Kamen Rider Synthetix, the red streaks on his black armor pulsing in time with his heartbeat. He knew that in this moment, their combined strength was essential. The two approached the creature, their allies providing cover and support. The creature roared, a sound that seemed to shake the very foundation of the base.

Sadboi raised her hand, and the Element of Synthesis glowed brightly. "Feel the bonds we share," she whispered, her voice carrying a strange, soothing melody. The creature's form began to waver, its eyes flickering with confusion. The negative emotions that had once fueled it began to dissipate, replaced by a gentle light that grew stronger with each passing second.

Keito took the opening, his vibesense blade resonating with the purity of the Element of Synthesis. He struck, and the creature's corrupted form shattered, revealing a tiny, scared creature beneath the monstrous exterior. It was a creature of pure light, a Shinken Spirit that had been twisted by the Negative Syndicate's influence. The light grew brighter, enveloping the room, and the French Narrator's voice echoed, "The true enemy is not before us, but within us. Fear, anger, and greed are what we must conquer to achieve true harmony."

The light receded, and in the creature's place stood a new ally, a Shinken Gold. The French Narrator stepped forward, a proud smile on his face. "You see, mes amis, even in the darkest moments, there is always a spark of hope, a chance for redemption. It is through understanding and empathy that we can truly become guardians of peace."

The Shinkengers and the Guardians of Synthesis watched as the new Shinken Gold took its place among them. The room was silent, the air charged with a newfound sense of unity and purpose. Together, they had faced the Negative Syndicate and emerged stronger. The French Narrator looked at them all, a twinkle in his eye. "Now, let us return to the world of the living, and continue our quest to weave the threads of harmony through every universe we encounter."

The Guardians of Synthesis and the Shinkengers stepped out of the base, ready to face whatever awaited them next. The sun was setting over Shibaura City, casting a warm glow over the rooftops. As they looked out over the city, they knew that their journey had only just begun.

Sadboi felt a profound sense of belonging among her new friends. Her heart, once filled with fear and pain, now swelled with hope and camaraderie. They had overcome so much together, and she knew that this was just the beginning of their epic journey.

The Guardians of Synthesis and the Shinkengers made their way through the bustling streets of Shibaura City, each step a declaration of their unity. As they approached the town square, a crowd gathered, drawn by the glow of their combined powers. The people of the city watched in awe as these heroes from different worlds stood together, embodying the very essence of harmony they sought to protect.

Sadboi couldn't help but feel a mix of excitement and nerves. Her eyes darted to Keito, who gave her an encouraging smile. He knew her fear of crowded places, but she took a deep breath, drawing strength from the trust in their eyes. Together, they raised their weapons, the Element of Synthesis and the vibesense blade, as the French Narrator announced their presence.

"Citizens of Shibaura, fear not! We are the Guardians of Synthesis, here to protect and serve alongside the noble Samurai Sentai Shinkenger. With our hearts as one, we shall conquer the shadows that threaten your peace!"

The crowd erupted into cheers, their faces alight with hope. Sadboi felt a warmth spread through her body, and she realized it was the first time in a long while she didn't feel like an outsider. The French Narrator leaned in, whispering, "You see, Sadboi, when we stand together, we are unstoppable."

Their mission in this world was far from over. The Negative Syndicate had planted its tendrils deep, and the Guardians knew they had to root out the corruption before it could spread further. With the Shinkengers at their side, they faced each new challenge with determination. Whether it was a giant monster threatening the city or a subtle emotional manipulation by one of the Shadow Line, they approached every battle with empathy and strategy.

As the days passed, Sadboi grew more adept at navigating the complex emotions of those around her. She and Metta formed an unspoken bond, the Metroid's gentle nature a balm to her own jagged past. The French Narrator observed their growth with a knowing smile, his tales of unity echoing in their minds.

One evening, as they sat around a campfire outside the city, sharing stories of their adventures, Sadboi looked around at her newfound family. The warmth of their laughter and the light of the flickering flames seemed to chase away the darkness that had once consumed her.

"Thank you," she murmured, her voice barely audible over the crackling fire. "For… everything."

The group fell silent, their gazes turning to her. Takeru, the ShinkenRed, placed a hand on her shoulder. "We are all in this together," he said firmly. "And together, we shall forge a new path of harmony."

Their eyes met, and she nodded, her heart swelling with gratitude. As the flames danced in the night, the Guardians of Synthesis and the Shinkengers stood as one, ready to face whatever the multiverse threw at them. The air was thick with anticipation, the promise of more battles, more bonds, and more worlds to save. But in that moment, all that mattered was the unity they had found in each other's company, a unity that would be their greatest weapon in the wars to come.

Their journey through the "Metroid" and "Shinkenger" universes had taught them the importance of understanding and empathy. Sadboi knew that she could no longer hide her past or her true nature. With a deep breath, she decided it was time to share her secret with the group. "There's something you all need to know about me," she began, her voice trembling slightly.

The others leaned in, their expressions a mix of curiosity and concern. "I'm… I'm a parasite. I've lived in fear of others finding out, of being rejected or hunted again. But you all have accepted me, and I can't keep running. I need to trust you with who I really am."

The silence was absolute, the crackling of the fire the only sound. Then, slowly, a smile spread across Keito's face, his eyes shining with a newfound respect. "Sadboi, we're all just… broken pieces, trying to find where we fit. But together, we're not just whole, we're something more." He reached out, his hand enveloping hers. "You're already one of us. And no matter what, we'll always have your back."

One by one, the others echoed his sentiment, their voices a chorus of acceptance and support. The French Narrator leaned back, his eyes twinkling in the firelight. "Ah, the beauty of unity," he murmured. "It is not in our origins that we find strength, but in our shared beliefs and the bonds we forge."

With their hearts united, the Guardians of Synthesis set forth into the vast expanse of the multiverse, ready to leave their mark on each world they visited. Their adventures would be filled with laughter and tears, victory and defeat, but above all, they knew that together, they could conquer any challenge. As they leapt into the next portal, the warmth of friendship and the echo of the French Narrator's words stayed with them: "For in unity, there is strength. In empathy, there is power. And in the hearts of guardians, there is always a beacon of hope."

The ToQger crossover was leagues better than the Go-Onger crossover. Genba’s obsession to defeat Disrace paralleled Akira’s desire to find his place to die so damn well! And getting Right actually fighting alongside the Boonboomgers was the best, especially the line-changing into Mio and Hikari’s colors! Why we couldn’t have that with Sosuke will be something I will nitpick forever.

Speaking of Akira, Boonboomger is doing a very poor job of convincing me Sakito and Byun D are trying to be a separate group from the core Boonboomger team. It’s an issue that I feel Sentai does seldomly very well in recent years, in establishing the extra heroes as separate entities from the core team. Either they immediately become a member of the team (Shinken Gold, Gokai Silver, Zyuoh the World), or they spend two or three episodes beefing with the core team before joining for real, then a later episode (around the 38 to 42 mark) actually has them join for real for real. In the case of Akira, he established himself as a separate party from the ToQgers and maintained that distance from them very easily, even coming into conflict with them due to a promise he made with Schwartz. And when he returned, it really felt like he joined for real.

Comparing that to Sakito, who unfortunately falls into the group of sixths who kinda… exist, a la Kiramai Silver, LuPat X, Don Dragoku/Torabolt. They all have really interesting backstories that are either not explored much, or they don’t matter in the long run. We haven’t really had many scenes where Sakito gets to be a cleaner, and he’s just there as the Boonboomger’s sixth. He’s beefing with Genba because… they’re both technically extraterrestrials(?).

Some examples of this kind of dynamic that Sentai has done well are with Shurikenger, Twokaiser, and Starninger. Zox and his family never identified themselves as Zenkaigers, despite being on friendly terms with them, and Kinji was introduced explicitly as a separate party from the Igasaki clan before being induced as an apprentice. Shurikenger especially worked well, due to his gimmick of borrowing faces and appearances. He was more of a shadow mentor to both the Hurricanegers and Gouraigers, and didn’t consider himself a member of the team until Lady Gozen was killed.

Sakito feels like missed potential, similar to Noel from LuPat. The show couldn’t really keep X from staying neutral, and ended up making him a permanent member of the thieves despite his main selling point. Hell, he even took the Siren Striker away from the Patrangers.

If you’re enjoying Boonboomger, all the power to you.
