Neo-Heisei is the perfect era to represent here, IMO. You also have every right to be selfish here, so you might as well.

Yeah, I'm not sure we're getting a ton of Kamen Rider foot-traffic off of this. If they do come in, though, I got an Ichiban Den-O and an Ichiban Geiz to sell 'em.

Ha ha! Of the two, it'd

be Level 1, which the art team would kill at. Still, it's looking to be Action Gamer Lvl 2.

Wrong assumption on my part I guess. If it's just random characters with the theme being what the owners want on there then Ex-Aid is as good as a fit as anyone else.
I mean, you're not wrong in your assumption. Our guidelines are to incorporate recognizable characters (Batman, Superman, that blasted wallcrawler), but we also sprinkle in some of our favorites, deep-cuts, whatever the artist likes drawing... it's like 50-60 characters, so there's plenty of room for levels of popularity.

For you, though, yeah, Ex-Aid is probably the simple and easy choice. It's a striking design just like Double (and from every angle, to boot), and I have to imagine, on a personal level, you'd be way happier to have your boy Emu greeting you when you walk in the door every day than Haruto.
I mean, my instinct was to tell you Double since I think that's one of the best Rider designs ever, and you literally live in the Windy City, but for something you're planning on committing to for at least half a decade, sentimental value seems like the right thing to prioritize.
The thing is, they're all great choices, and I'm probably going to be slightly bummed at whatever didn't make the cut. Double is so good, and that suit is so fantastic, and YES the Windy City, and and and. No wrong answers.
Thank you guys so much for the feedback! It's going to be months before this is all done (we literally got a quote from the artists earlier today, which set off this quandary), but I'll be sure to show it off when there's something to show off!
