I'm kind of baffled by this figure. RideWatches aside, it looks great for what it is, but it's among the least interesting Ride Armor designs. What these armors (Build, Ex-Aid, Ghost) had in common was that they were in the first wave of retail figures, the gimmick for which was that they were double-sided and usable by both Zi-O and Geiz. As a result, the designs are pretty heavily limited The next ones released - OOO, Fourze - were when the designs dropped the shareability in favor of more interesting gimmicks. Ironically, this basically meant the more recent Heisei-second-phase Riders got plainer, less interesting designs than Decade-Gaim.
It looks (except for the you-know-what) gorgeous for what it is, and makes what looked a clunky on the retail figures seem genuinely pretty slick. This gives us a pretty good idea of what we could expect if they were to produce the armors Ex-Aid, Ghost, etc., since they're so standardized. I'd love to this this treatment applied to, say, Fourze Armor or Wizard Armor, but since those designs would use a ton of new parts, it's just not that likely.
