I think I woke up incredibly early for no reason and caught it XD

Stage 10 is predictably movie Riders. Ninja Player was the main focus and will be like Ride Players/Bugsters and in a single box. They also shown Kamen Rider Fuma (very nice) and Ex-Aid's VR (Troopers! 3!) form.

And finally, PREMIUM BANDAI Ride Player Nico:

The more I see of the SODO ex-aid stuff, the more I feel like I made the wrong decision going with the LVUR figures. there are just too many characters still missing and I doubt they'll ever be made.
and Nico just cinches it for me. I made the wrong choice

Don't get me wrong, the LVUR stuff is nice, and probably higher quality than the SODO stuff, but the roster is way smaller. no Poppy, no Ride players, no Burger Gamer.
I doubt there'll even be LVUR figures for the movie characters.

Ex-Aid has been an odd year. The SO-DO line is huge, easily the biggest candy toy line Kamen Rider has had. The line is 10 normal waves, one "Dai" wave, and a handful of Premium Bandai sets. For comparison, the biggest line before this was Gaim's Arms Action line. It was 6 waves (4 normal, 2 EX) and it still missed stuff that was in Arms Change.

SO-DO is making everything, even the random one off stuff like Legend Riders beyond the year before, JuJu Burger (the best Gashat), Proto Snipe, Hyper plugged into a normal Game Driver, the list goes on. The people running the line even end their blogs every week by mentioning their plans to release everything in this line. If they revealed Lovrica and the other Bugsters next week, I would not be surprised. That's how insane this line has become.

Meanwhile, LVUR kind of just seems to be doing the bare medium and missing a lot. I haven't been keeping a close eye on this line, but is there anything after Hyper/Lvl 99? Cronus? Lazer Turbo? Taddle Legacy? Poppy? Ride Player? Anything? I don't collect these main lines because I'd rather buy the candy toys while the show is on and then maybe some favorites in Figuarts, but usually the main line has most everything including Premium Bandai sets to get some missing or less likely to sell stuff. But not Ex-Aid. This is a very odd year for Kamen Rider action figures.

Honestly I quite like the setup of SO-DO. They probably will never make gimmick (main) figures for absolutely everything and it's nice for there to be something available for more obscure characters/forms. We got three versions of Graphite, I wouldn't be surprised by more Bugsters.

This week on SO-DO does what Nintendon't:

An upcoming PB set will include the Continue pipe. Every time I think this line can't surprise me it finds a new way to.


Also Fuma and Ninja Player will share a body, as it the armor set is equipped to the Ninja Player to make Fuma.

I suppose it's possible that they're related. I love Ex-Aid... and gave up on LVUR after Dragon Hunter and Lazer were released. The gimmick just wasn't satisfying, and it kept drifting around different gimmicks. In addition, Ex-Aid ended up with a great many Riders and unique forms; the cost was relatively prohibitive for figures that looked okay.

Meanwhile, the candy toys have never looked better. (For that matter, neither have the Sentai minipla.) The candy toy versions of the armor tend to look sleeker across-the-board than their LVUR counterparts, and at a fraction of the cost and shelf space. If I'd had the foresight (and option) to buy into them, I would've skipped LVUR entirely in favor of SO-DO, early access-be-damned.

I can imagine parents picking up the candy toys because they're a better, cheaper option (enabling their kid to go all-in on LVUR might'a been a hard sell, assuming the kid was even into Ex-Aid,) and for adult collectors, the math is really clear: the superior non-Figuarts line turned out to be SO-DO. I mean, on the strength of (what I've seen of) SO-DO, I'm planning to preorder all the Build candy toys... well, assuming I can land preorders.

Compared to Ghost and Drive candy toy action figure, I think Ex-Aid has more variations candy toy action figures. Ghost only has some of Heroic Parka Ghost in candy toy, Drive also only has some of Tire Koukan in candy toy version. But Ex-Aid candy toy figure has all Riders and equipments (support robot armor, energy item box, and Genm's pipe)

Maybe LVUR version of Poppy, Cronus, and Fuma will be released in Premium Bandai.

Hmm....Gaim has various candy toy action figure too.

Kamen Rider Build Gashat will be as campaign item:

https://scontent-sit4-1.xx.fbcdn.net...cc&oe=5A34FBF6

Hmm....maybe Ex-Aid will be has his own Legend Rider Gashat. Maybe Ex-Aid's Legend Rider Gashat is Genius Gamer Ex-Aid Gashat.

We knew it'd be a campaign item from Build's toy catalogue; but yeah, following last year's precedent, I'd assume Ex-Aid's legend rider gashat would be released via the True Ending DVD/Blu-ray

Just caught the newest episode and it looks like a new Gashat was shown in the preview for next weeks episode, the Mighty Doctor X Gashat does anyone know if this is going to be in the toyline, I haven't seen any scans or other info about it so probably this question is a week too early
also does anyone know whose in the Build Gashat Campaign? CSToys are for sure, not sure about HLJ given the state of their Build page at the moment

Doctor Mighty XX, you mean? Nope, not currently known to be released at all.

Yeah that one I couldn't quite make out the name so thanks for the correction :) shame about the no release though

I'd be willing to bet Doctor Mighty XX will be available on Premium Bandai at some point in the near future.

Wasn't expecting Mighty Creator VRX to have the Kamen Rider Chronicle voice, wonder what that's about?

Does Ex-Aid combine with Lazer to for Muteki?

Contact your middle man, everyone!

DX Doctor Mighty XX
http://p-bandai.jp/item/item-1000116830/

That's Genm, not Ex-Aid. You can tell because it's purple, and has the Dangerous Zombie additions.

Fun little detail, neither Kageyama nor Suwabe voice the Gashat, it's Kiriya's and Kuroto's voices.

Oh hell yes, please for the love of god let there be Kuroto's laugh in that gashat. I need it!

Here's the link one more time just in case people don't bother with reading previous pages in threads.

Newest candy toy blog:

This week is all about VR Trooper Ex-Aid from Stage 10 and sound effect parts for the new PB set. If I'm understanding the rough (and I do mean rough) translation right, at the end it confirms SO-DO will continue with Build and they might be showing something from that line next week.

Oh god, I hadn't noticed this, but on the P-Bandai page for it, there's actual clips for the sounds in the Gashat... AND THEY'RE GLORIOUS!!!!! AND HILARIOUS!!!!

Darn, the gashat displays kinda killed my hopes of somebody getting a Doctor Mighty form in a gaiden. Unless Genm and Lazer are supposed to fuse into a Muteki redeco, which...would not be the worst thing ever.

The toy is a gag. The gashat in the show was something relatively serious. But the toy itself is a gag, the jingles are essentially Kiriya and Kuroto doing mock versions of the MBXX jingles.

What does the Gashat Say altogether?

So I think we literally all predicted this would become a Premium Bandai thing. Kind of a nice silly extra though. Theoretically somebody could get a new form from it in a Gaiden, with a different version of it coming with it like they did with the Break Gunner.

I preordered it purely for the amusement value
Even at the highier cost its still worth it just for the entertainment of having Kuroto and Kiriya's actors on it
I hope someone can do a translation cause id love to know what the Gashat says
Id love a Gaiden "serious" version too if only to complete my gashat collection

http://gameridernews.tumblr.com/post...ctor-mighty-xx

Here are the translations, but I think the "Level XX" stuff is less "I am you, you are me", and more supposed to go with the next line, making it "I am defeating you again and again" to go with how the Gashat was made.

Either im having a brain freeze or the second Double up translation doesnt make much sense to me

A better version would be:

I will, to you~ (To you, I will~) Again! Again and Again... Defeat You! (I am God! A disgusting god...)

HLJ restocked Taddle Legacy, get it while it's hot.

https://hlj.com/product/BANN17239

Was about to post the same thing.

Got mine ordered.

That's one less Gashat to track down

Had pretty much written off Taddle Legacy as a "never gonna happen" in regards to me buying it. Seemed to disappear before it even showed up.
But now like big foot, it's once again been spotted.

It's still available as of the time I'm typing this post. Strictly 1 per customer.

Now HLJ. If you wanna restock Tokimeki Crisis, Shakariki Sports and the Buggle Driver II, that will make me very happy. And very broke...

Taddle Legacy now in low stock on HLJ, get it now while you still can.

The Buggle Driver II is a pipe dream sadly I'm looking too but even on Mandarake they are 12k Yen
But I would keep an eye out there for Tokimeki as they seem to get that one in a lot and have it go just as fast so if your quick Tokimeki should be in reach :)

Wow.....

Premium Bandai

The Gashats with character quotes on them? And the Riders in the cover? That's what those are, right?

I find it kind of weird that these exist but several previous series have had similar so it's not that surprising.
