AFW - Antique France Worldwide
Description
Articulated action figure depicting the character Kamen Rider, from the Japanese tokusatsu universe, manufactured by Bandai in 2003. The object features a slender humanoid silhouette, faithful to the iconography of the Japanese hero. The visible side reveals a predominantly black skin-tight suit, with a vivid red torso, shoulders, and forearms, enhanced with golden details on the mask, wrists, knees, and ankles.
The distinctive mask, fully visible, is adorned with a brilliant golden finish on the upper part, including two symmetrical protuberances resembling horns, typical of the Kamen Rider franchise. The eyes are red and prominent, the rest of the face displaying a silvery hue and sculpted lines marking the mouth and cheeks.
The belt, a central element of the costume, is detailed with a silver and gold buckle, highlighted by a red medallion in the center, surrounded by sculpted motifs. The knees and wrists feature golden rings, each decorated with a central red circle, accentuating the heroic aspect of the character.
The figure is positioned standing, arms at its sides, hands closed. The boots and gloves are black, contrasting with the red and gold parts. No additional inscriptions are visible on the photographed side, apart from the sculpted and painted details characteristic of Bandai's production.
The surface of the object has a satin finish, typical of early 2000s toys, with well-preserved colors and sharp details on the front. No accessories or base are visible in the provided photo.
Condition
Used item, sold as is. Some marks or slight signs of wear may be observed on the paint, particularly at the joints and raised areas, with no apparent structural defects on the visible side.
