Best Match! The Kamen Rider Build Toys Thread
I'm kinda surprised that this doesn't already exist given that the toy scans are now out.
I'm particularly interested in the BCR retail toy line. Although I was disappointed by the Ghost line and kinda "meh" on the execution of the Ex-Aid line, the first glance at Build's makes it look like it'll bypass the worst elements of those, specifically the clunkiness of the added armor. It looks like BCR works like W or OOO, with each release representing one form cleverly split in two halves. It looks like all the early figures are compatible with one another. I'm seeing most of the forms, although I can't tell what the form right next to NinNinComic is. It doesn't look like Rocket/Panda, exactly... maybe half of it is the Hedgehog form? I really like the look of Tank/Hedgehog, and I'd love to be able to put that together. What I like best is that it looks like they don't sacrifice the slash of right-side color on the left chest. Hey, could the red side of the red-and-white form maybe be a right side for Rabbit...? And do we think the FullBottles have a solid, static color intended to look like liquid (most likely), or d'you think maybe they actually found a way to fill them with something? What're the rest of you excited for in the initial solicits? FullBottles? The weapons? |

The form next to Nin-Nin Comic is Fire Hedgehog.
I too am very interested in the BCR series, honestly considering going all in. Unfortunately, Rocket Panda and Octopus Light don't have scheduled BCR releases so far, and neither does Lock. I fear the former two may end up as Premium Bandai, but I have no idea what the hell they're gonna do with Lock. Dragon is definitely coming out since there's no way they won't release Claws, but that means they probably won't release Key Dragon, and I don't see them releasing a single half by itself. That the corresponding Full Bottle is a campaign item and that the form will probably see very little use make me fear that they won't release it at all, which would be a shame. If I do buy into the line, I really would want at least all 10 Best Matches. Also concerned about the apparent lack of head articulation, but I'll see where that goes. Not really interested in buying anything else, the DX stuff just doesn't entice me. Those little SD Gashapons also looked tempting though, even with the BCR series as an option. Also, in the interest of not talking about stuff in a void, I'll attach the clearest catalog scans we have to this post |
I doubt Lock will be the only FullBottle not paired with a unique other half. Maybe it'll get paired with another partner-less FullBottle, then released in BCR that way?
I'm curious as to whether Close (probably) and NightRogue / BloodStark will be compatible with Build. Of course, I could also be wrong in guessing they'll be produced at retail in the BCR line. Admittedly, they're not announced in the first flood... Also, GOOD GRIEF that's a lot of forms. W had three until Fang/Joker came along. Build's got more than that just in his first quarter. |
Claws is certainly compatible, as he is in reality just Build with a little armor on top. Half of him is the same Dragon that makes up half of the Key Dragon form. And while it likely won't do happen in the show, the other half (which is just an embellished Dragon) should be equally compatible with all the other "organic" halves.
Nightrogue and Bloodstalk I don't see being released in the BCR line, though, since they don't seem to have any real gimmicks. |

My prediction about some of Legend Rider Full Bottle Sets:
- Kuuga: Kuwagata Full Bottle and Artifact Full Bottle - Ryuki: Knight Full Bottle and Mirror Full Bottle (Basicly all Ryuki Riders has knight motiif because visor designs) - Faiz: Firefly Full Bottle and Phone Full Bottle - Blade: Beetle Full Bottle and Poker Full Bottle - Hibiki: Oni Full Bottle and Taiko Full Bottle - Kabuto: Kabuto Full Bottle and Robot Full Bottle (Zecters technically are support robots) - Den-O: Peach Full Bottle and Clock Full Bottle - Kiva: Vampire Full Bottle and Whistles Full Bottle - Decade: Photographer Full Bottle and Barcode Full Bottle - OOO: Animals Full Bottle and Medal Full Bottle - Fourze: Astronaut Full Bottle and Switch Full Bottle - Wizard: Magician Full Bottle and Jewel Full Bottle - Gaim: Samurai Full Bottle and Beat Full Bottle - Drive: Police Full Bottle and Car Full Bottle - Ghost: Ghost Full Bottle and History Book Full Bottle I can't predict about Agito Full Bottles |
^Den-O will probably be Peach and Train.

I'd guess Den-O peach + time
Or peach + climax :p Do we have any idea when we'll see pre-orders go up for these things? Gotten tired of missing out on ex-aid stuff so want to try to stay on top of things for Build |

Thanks. I figured one of those dates on the scans would be a pre-order start date/listing date But I can't read Kanji to save my life so I wasn't sure which |
Preorders for Build stuff are currently available at CSToys.

And AAARGH, HLJ has nothing listed under Build. They do have several items - blank, no description - under New Kamen Rider, most of which are listed as ORDER STOP, which I assume means people preordered having only the vaguest idea what they might be. |
Quote:
If they've sold out of build stuff before Build has even be listed... I will be rather upset... come on HLJ, put up proper build listings and take my pre-order! |
Gorilla Diamond full Bottle set is up

In addition, one of the pre-orders of "New Kamen Rider" merchandise that's NOT out of stock - and which wasn't there earlier today - is New Kamen Rider: Action Figure (1 Box). It's the same price as SO-DO set 10, so I presume this is the next candy toy action figure line.
UGH. I just re-checked the listing before hitting post - and after placing a maybe-ill-advised preorder - and now, it's at Order Stop, as well. |
Quote:
@Topic: Do we have a release date for this set? Looking at how the DX items on the front page have it, the Gorillamond set should have on too, right? |
Gorilla diamond pre-ordered
A bit odd that and a single figure are all that's listed for build Will keep an eye on their site in case anything else shows up |

i assume since the full bottles dont have any sounds in them that this is going to be another season of "if you dont want to buy the weapons for the DX item that comes with them, the candy toy/gashapon version is almost identical to the DX version" right?
|
Quote:
Maybe Full Bottle in Gashapon version dont have sparkling sticker because sparkling sticker usually only in DX version. |

Looks like the FullBottles replicate liquid by using suction to move whatever's in the bottle from the bottom to the top, as though the bottle has been turned upside-down.

Does anyone know why the Build Driver isn't listed on HLJ, only thing I can see is the DX Gorilla Set
I was thinking of emailing them as I don't want to miss out |
AmiAmi listed the BCRS 01 and 02, and then did the most AmiAmi thing conceivable: closed preorders within 24 hours.

I emailed HLj and HLJ say they haven't been given any infomation from the manufacturer regarding the Build Toyline yet
So their advice is to keep checking the website daily cause they will update it when the infomation gets to them but they do intend to list the DX things and figures if possible |

I... may be getting tired of constantly checking their site. |

Think maybe someone at HLJ forgot to check their spam filter? (Also, I forgot to thank you for your attempts to reach out to them! Thanks!) |
The first set of Build so-do figures went up on Hobbysearch sometime. So there's a little information.
-There's eight types -You still need two to make a full figure. Which...makes sense. The Build forms that are gonna be part of the first promotional push are RabbitTank, GorillaMond, HarinezumiTank and RabbitSoujiki, which would match there being 8 types perfectly. Unfortunately, that also suggests that they couldn't figure out some workable gimmick for this scale, since the Rabbit and Tank halves are doubled up. Which is not unexpected, but still kind of a shame. |
Although I've been checking HLJ regularly, it just occurred to me that since Build is debuting in less than three weeks, it might be too late for them to place an order.
