Hot Toys reveals Riderman!

The latest addition to Hot Toys’ expanding Kamen Rider collection pays homage to one of the most unique heroes of the Showa era – Riderman!

A former elite scientist of the evil organization Destron, Joji Yuki was betrayed and lost his right arm, only to replace it with a cybernetic prosthetic and take up the mantle of Riderman!

Beginning his journey as a rival driven by revenge and known as “The Avenging Demon” Joji Yuki eventually fought alongside Kamen Rider V3 as a hero of justice. With his iconic half-exposed face and versatile “Cassette Arms,” Riderman rightfully earned the legendary title of Kamen Rider 4.

The Riderman 1/6 Scale Collectible Figure has been masterfully crafted based on the appearance of the beloved character in the Kamen Rider V3 TV series. This incredible action figure features a newly developed helmeted head with an authentic likeness of Takehisa Yamaguchi as Joji Yuki. The detailed helmet features a magnetically activated LED light-up function in the eyes and comes with two interchangeable lower faces to capture his different expressions.

Riderman’s costume features a black protective suit with green and white stripes, paired with red chest armor and silver sleeves and boots made of soft vinyl material. A wire-embedded yellow muffler is also included to allow for dramatic, wind-blown posing.

Riderman wouldn’t be complete without his signature weaponry, featuring three sets of interchangeable Cassette Arms: the devastating Power Arm, the Drill Arm, and the highly versatile Rope Arm.

The Rope Arm includes a wire-embedded extension rope and multiple attachments (Hook, Sickle, and Maces), allowing fans to seamlessly recreate his various combat modes! To further enhance display potential, the figure also comes with various interchangeable hands, including a special handshake gesture to recreate his iconic bond with the Kamen Rider V3 1/6 Scale Collectible Figure.
