Today i received my SH Figuarts IXA I had to get him on ebay because i missed out on preordering him and after he came out sold out everywhere. Now that i actually have him i couldn't be happier

Kamen rider IXA is the secondary rider of "Kamen Rider Kiva". IXA is a battle armor of sorts that anyone can use unlike typical rider belts that can only be used by specific people. This leads to IXA having four main characters as users (and a few one time users as well) throughout the story of the show. Visually IXA is themed after a Knight and the holy cross.

He comes with all of the essential items he would need. Heads representing save mode (visor closed) and Burst mode (visor open), the "Ixa Calibur" in both sword and gun modes, the "Ixa Knuckle" (one attached to the belt and one not), and three sets of hands.

The first production run also comes with a tamashii stage (witch as of now is all of them) with one of four random quotes.

The stand works similar to a figma stand but each piece is designed to be interchanged to fit figures of different sizes although Ixa only comes with the bare minimum.

The stand combined with his good amount of poseability means he can take anny exaggerated pose you want him to be in.

I dont know why i waited to buy him but he is a wonderful figure and I'm glad to finally have him in my collection.
Now for the shot with momo!


Saber?

I'm pretty sure his stage quote is that from the series something along the lines of "Return that life to God"
Enjoy him, from all the reviews and hype he is supposed to be quite possibly one of the top Figuarts releases.
LOL @ Saber gag

Found this on wikipedia
"Fangire… Return that life you took to God!" (ファンガイア…その命、神に返しなさい!)
IXA is one of the best figuarts he has a nice sculpt / paint and doesn't feel like he could have used more accessories.

Also glad I know who Momo is now. Sadly my moving and trying to get the floor for my room finished has put a temporary halt to my watching of Den-O. I've only watched the first 16 episodes so far, but from what I've watched, I've really enjoyed. ^_^
