Seems like the Another Riders will be getting toys after all.

Not bad. Would obviously prefer larger scale figures, but this is promising.

Glad they made it through. Yeah, a special request was put in for them(because many fans kept asking!). And Oma's tease was a sign it was accepted. Another Riders are still riders after all, so it only made sense to do a few this time. No clue if we'll get all of them, but we'll at least get some of the bigger ones fans loved like what's shown here.

Is there a proper source for that SHODO Another Riders set? Because it's not in the usual Candy Toy Update, and a reverse google image search isn't pulling up anything.
EDIT: Ah, found it by looking on the main page. It's certainly interesting (and also conformation of them doing Cross-Z Evol, despite how obvious it was), but not really my scene. I'm just not that interested in monster designs.

Sodo is cheaper to make, but if they do well enough RKF is a maybe, depends on development cycles and if there is room or time to. Also want to keep it from biting into SiC sales too.
Right now, these were picked for character highlights that stood out and we may see something on the Retainers later maybe, no clue there, and anything else is anything the design team wants to do or liked themselves for their faves.

SO-DO might be the only place we see these designs. Rider Kick would be the next likely pace but that will depend on IF this line will continue past Zi-O and become the main figure line going forward. The show would have to be extremely popular for Figurats to touch this as there track record shows that popularity=more focus for them in the long run. SIC would be a long time as they are usually about 2-3 shows behind on there focus so it would be some time for that. Honestly, my big hope is SO-DO will get the chance to do them all at least as with there Chronicle Line now moving on to Den-O we may have at least all main Riders in this scale.

Rider Kick is the new line going forward, but how far it continues of Zi-O stuff after Zi-O is over is definitely a question. We may see a few things like how Build carried over into early Zi-O while Zi-O was still fleshing material out. So the same will likely be true for the next rider series, as they'll need filler as the show develops out to avoid initial spoilers. But filler can be done from a lot of things that fans want too. So that doesn't mean directly another Riders, but it could also. Or at least a P-Bandai exclusive set maybe. Rider Kick is staying around until minimum the 50th anniversary since that's right around the corner. Hence the name of it. As in the original theme song "Let's go Rider Kick." Same reason there is so much focus on the feet too. Shoes/Kicks have become kind of an accidental running gag/marketing thing for a bit now for various reasons. But yeah definitely on this might be the only place. The request put in was only for SoDo right now. Because that's what different fans were asking for directly at the time the request was made. It was only loosely discussed at first, dismissed for then(due to the SiC concerns, and some other concerns), but was up for debate to revisit, then finally formally requested because fans kept asking for it, and the show designs were really cool. Between Shodo, SODO, and MRS, nearly all the riders are almost covered in this scale now. Some are getting revisited still though. Really only missing some of Blade, some of Faiz, and the rest of Agito/Kuuga. MRS already covered everyhing between about Kabuto to Kiva, and Shodo filled in a few missing spots there minus a few remaining from Kiva and is doing Ryuki now. Decade's candy toys were already to scale though. But that's the goal to complete that scale entirely between Shodo and SODO. With also a few troop builders thrown in and side characters of prominence.
