What do you all think are the rarest retail release DX belts from Heisei era?

Unless I'm forgetting anything exceptional it definitely seems to get harder the earlier you go. Blade and Faiz are always pretty expensive, and then Agito and Kuuga are both even MORE expensive and almost consistently show up with a variety of breakage issues

Just doing some basic browsing on Yahoo auctions, Hibiki is very hard to find and Kabuto fetches some of the highest prices. Kuuga and Agito definitely have the worst conditions, especially because they used thin plastic for the belt parts (which also returned in Hibiki).
I'm interested to see how prices will fluctuate going forward. The Legend Henshin line does a good job offering new versions of older belts. And the Super Best version of belts did well to keep prices down. But something like the Fourze Driver being too expensive to ever re-release makes me think it will become rare. Drive seems to have the most issues/faulty parts of the phase 2 belts.

Legend Henshin definitely excited me as far as Phase 1 is concerned due to their (mostly) simpler belts. Ryuki and Hibiki are so simple that it's hard to see how a budget version would do less, and others like Blade and Agito they'd easily get close enough that it would be difficult to be disappointed. To say nothing of Showa belts

The faiz legend henshin belt, although quite simplified, is not a slacker either. It hit all the right notes look wise and sound wise, sure its a bit small and lacking paint, but still a pretty great stand in for $25-30 usd. I just wish they'd release a kaixa remold like the old legend henshin line did. I don't think they've rereleased or updated that belt since the first iteration of legend henshin, i dont see much info on it online either. At this point its like it never existed for the most part. It'd be nice if we still got It tho.

I recently acquired a non-functioning OOOs driver. As predicted, it died due to battery corrosion.
I was able to restore most functionality, but because of the layout of the scanner's internals, the corrosion got to one of the LEDs that light up with each coin scan. So everything works fine but the 3rd light won't light up. Not bad overall. I'm always impressed whenever I open up a Bandai electronic toy. The DX toys are designed to take a beating and there's actually lot of painting effort on most of them. Also if Bandai ever makes a Legend Henshin OOOs driver, I bet it will be a dummy belt that uses a nub on the lower rail to tick a button on the bottom of the scanner to play a pre-loaded sound effect.

Nice! Reminds me I need to find a replacement for one of my Hibiki drumsticks and for the strap he holds disc animals on. (I have two drumsticks but they're both the same one and I know the belt is supposed to have two different ones.)
