Since I have a new Fourze driver, I'm now looking for astro switches to go along with it. I know that there's DX, Gashapon and candy switches. Besides the cosmetics, is there a difference between the three?
For starters, I just won this auction. Is there any suggestions on other switches to get? Bandai Kamen Rider Fourze Switch Astro Sets | eBay

There isn't any difference other than the sticker on the switches, between DX, Gashapon and Candy.
For starters, all DX switches have the sparkly sticker. All Candy have the Shiny Reflective Sticker (Have any DX ones come out in Candy?), and Gashapons all come with a flat coloured sticker, as well as either a Shiney, or if they are not being released in a DX set, will have a Sparkly sticker. Candy Switches also have a QR Code sticker on the back. In Gashapon Waves, there are often switches that have a light up gimmick. Basically it's just an LED in the front. I haven't seen one in person, cause these are never (as of yet) the ones with the DX sticker, which I collect. It's sad, currently the only switch I do not own (or don't have on the way!), that has been released so far is the Telebi Magazine Clear Orange Rocket switch. Which I can't find anywhere.. Any help on this would be awesome. Happy Switching everybody! I'll post some photos of my switches soon. We should start a catalog of switches, and what ones come in what sets, w/pics. |

Nice one mumps, i is jelly. I really need to get more of them, going the candy route personally as its cheaper and the sparkles aren't really that obvious unless you look close =)
To answer your question, i have the Magic Hand candy switch and that has a DX sticker included with it so i assume the others that aren't getting a DX release will have them too =) |

Also, sadly, Every single switch you see there is Sparkly Stickered, except the Rider Switches, which only have 1 sticker. I guess I am just a consistency whore =p Yes I will be buying the DX Legend Rider sets as well... |

Thanks for the info Mumps. That's a impressive collection you have there. I have 10 coming in soon to start my collection.
I have a One question, have you scanned the QR code to the candy switches?

In case anyone is interested, BBTS have a box of series 2 candy Astro Switches for sale. For those with PoL, the price will probably be the same if you get them from Asian sites.
