That's because the clearer one is a digitally upscaled and cleaned up version, bot the proper scan.

In case you couldn't tell, it was digitally upscaled from the original image, which we can ascertain is real. I'm guessing you haven't seen an image like that before.

I don't think so. RKF Dragonic Knight was originally 5500 yen, and it included 1 body, 1 dragon, and enough parts to alternate between 3 forms.

Hypothetically, if RKF Saikou included, let's say - Saikou, Saikou's Shadow, Saikou's upgrade, and Primitive Dragon. All that for 4180 yen? No way. RKF Saikou is just 200 yen more expensive than RKF Calibur, so we can assume the gimmick will be the same, if not with a few extra parts.

RKF Saikou being the only release in February just means we won't see Primitive Dragon until March.

So based on what I’ve seen the Japanese talking about, it looks like half of the leak was true, and half not.

February 6th will see the release of the DX SwordXMan Wonder Ride Book, as well as the DX Seiken Saikou Driver and SwordXMan set and RKF Kamen Rider Saikou.
February 27th will then bring us the DX Primitive Dragon Wonder Ride Book.

So SwordXMan being a WRB for Saikou is true, but there’s no new emblem and no ‘Dragon of the Stars’ WRB either, which is a shame, because it sounded really nice.

That really is a shame. I was hoping for a new emblem/plate for the sword by now. That WRB sounded really sick, as well.

Remember, those could be a March release.

nah, the specific release dates are right there

No, I mean that Dragon of the Stars and the new emblem could be in march.

I'm doubting that a bit now, while the rumor got SwordXMan right, I'm guessing it was a lucky guess based on the clues we've been given this week.

The Dragon of the Stars thing was from a rumor back in December, this might've just been a thing to try and prop up Dragon of the Stars as a real thing.

But now we've got the actual listings. But who knows, that's my take on it.

Why would that leak then not have Primitive Dragon?

Yeah, that’s my thinking as well, especially as it makes no sense for an emblem for Saber’s sword to be named for Slash.

Haven't been keeping up, Primitive Dragon our Super Form?

Sounds like a berserker form but I doubt they'd do that right after Metal ClusterHopper
