Looks odd, but good! Build's silhouette had his colors in the background, so maybe we'll be getting a purple main rider.
Also, his head is essentially a pawn, which I love. Hopefully we can see some future chess related upgrades! Quote:
Also, if this design is the final design, it's interesting to me that there's no visible handle sticking out. Also, this was posted on J-Hero, and it's a good comparison: Quote:

Chess? That sounds neat.
Wasn't there some speculation that the Zi-0 could be binary? 1/0. The matrixy style background text in the image seems to back that up. |

Has me thinking "one punch rider" really. But who knows. The themes can be a little varied.
Binary is possible, but that also fits with the chess theme too really if that's the direction it goes. Chess is often an AI test too and has connections to that. So those two things may not be mutually exclusive. This seems like an anniversary year though, so I'm leaning on it or it and the next one as both something very anniversary leaning. |

Are we sure this was revealed in an official source?
One of my friends pointed out that the blue flyer header is the exact same as Build's poster. Is that blue header just standard for the catalog flyer? Last edited by MangaArtist18; 06-13-2018 at 04:20 PM.. |

Could be standard. I'm not sure exactly what the Japanese says, but I recognize that it says something related to Ex-Aid on Build's banner (probably saying that he's the rider after Ex-Aid), and Zi-O's banner has Build's name instead of Ex-Aid. While the blue banner is the same, the text is different. Not sure if it's generic or not though.

Thanks.
My friend has stated that the kanji is a bit strange. Something about it not saying "henshin item". Should he just wait for the "official" reveal? Edit: Dukemon on Rangerboard helped out. Yes the flyer is real, as are the prices. The gimmick should be something electronic, so that makes me happy. Last edited by MangaArtist18; 06-13-2018 at 04:53 PM.. |

HOWEVER: the lines seem eerily similar to those seen in Heisei Generations Final, which I'm going to take as a more official hint to it being a Decade or Gokaiger style anniversary season. |

Thanks.
I could be wrong though so I am gonna sit it out. There is the possibility like I said it could be them being ambiguous about the intricate details of the suit to keep us guessing even if the same format flyer had a detailed silhouette for Build previously.

But I think much of the outline is accurate. The waist notches on each side for the belt, and the cufflets on the boots and arms. As well as the shoulders and collar. Though the head is anyone's guess. It seems pretty lacking in detail, not even bulbous eyes. Which still makes me lean heavily on either it's a base form like Den-O's first form, or it's something else entirely. Decade's they kind of did similar. His preview pic was before all the cards really formed on his head. So this could be a 'pre-transformation' type too, or mid-transform. I think it might have something to do with the SFX collectible this time(seems very disc/sound disc/gem disc if it's the that circular). Whatever it is, isn't too obtrusive to the belt design. Seems more streamlined like Faiz/Kuuga/Blade/Agito/Black/Black RX. From the side notches for the belt it seems very streamlined designed. A heavier belt front would need wider surface area design straps. Those notches almost seem rib like and skeletal. Still think it's going to potentially lean on some kind of anniversary theme though. While "Chess & Binary" is a good guess, those are too much constants through many series really, and the coding aspect could also relate to 'creation/programming' of robotics too. Not sure if they'd actually go full out for a chess theme, not that many power-ups really to that. But it does play to the binary aspect of black and white, and each piece. Which doubles the piece amounts too. *Shrug* looking forward to how it further gets revealed. Still the promo pic makes me think of one punch man though. xD In a weird way, I'm kind of getting Rider 01/02 vibes off of it. Like a next gen version of those created by Shocker/Dai Shocker which could also fit the coding backdrop. Which could explain the disc shape too. Really not sure though. Whatever it ends up being, I think it's going to be awesome though. That kind of design and subtlety usually means some kind of big wild ride that's been in planning stages for a bit.
