In case anyone was still wondering about the whole Blood Stark or Blood Stalk thing.

Something interesting that I've noticed, since Blood Stalk and Night Rogue have their own unique symbols, that does give credence to the rumor that they are going to be full fledged Kamen Riders in the second quarter toys.

Uchuuuu Kitaaaa! :D

Wondering about "Speeder's" name. Night Rogue, Blood Stark.... what would you call Speeder's full name?

He isn't definitely real yet, so I don't know. If he is, I imagine his suit design'd clue us in (Blood Stalk is red, so blood; Night Rogue is black, so night).

Remember, we got rumours of the horror-themed 'Kamen Rider Witch' and that Parad would become 'Kamen Rider Escher' last year.

Oh man, I'm wondering if any other past supporting characters are coming back.

Who the hell is cutting up onions in my house, and why do I feel so damn happy about it? :cry :cry :cry

Since Bat Full Bottle and Cobra Full Bottle are used in Transteam Gun, what if Gorilla Full Bottle, Hawk Full Bottle, Panda Full Bottle and other Full Bottles also used in Transteam Gun too? I think it will be really interesting if each Full Bottle has Pseudo Rider Forms (like Night Rogue and Blood Stalk) when Full Bottles used in Transteam Gun.

Glad to see Takushi Tanaka aka Mr.Ohsugi the Suspender teacher will be in this.

Episode preview shows Night Rogue's gun for the prime minister guy. I am shocked. Shocked!

Happy we're done with that "mystery". I really want to see NigthRogue henshin sequence.


Would not be surprised if we get some in a movie. Just like W had the protags GM dopant forms.

What's a "best match" for cobra?

And I knew it was obvious that Night Rogue was that Gentoku guy!

Kuroto being Genm was shocking to me.

Fourze was never my favorite series, but dammit Sota Fukushi's return excites me the most. And I love OOO and Gaim more than Fourze!

I've said this a thousand times before.

Cobra doesn't have a Best Match. It's sound is at the end of the soundboard, with a bunch of other random sounds that don't have Best Matches.

Confirmed to be HeatMetal hum I mean PhoenixRobo

Goddamn.

The Sclash Driver is used by Kamen Rider Claws Charge and Kamen Rider Grease. The Sclash Driver is used by loading Sclash Jellies into it and crushing them. Claws Charge uses the Dragon Sclash Jelly and Grease uses the Robot Sclash Jelly. (Spelling comes from fuzzy text on the bottles, it could be slightly different. Kinda looks like it might be Sclrsh actually).

https://i.imgur.com/UvgZ5lB.jpg

The Twin Breaker is the weapon of Claws Charge and Grease. It can switch between Attack Mode and Beam Mode. Load trinkets for finishers - Fullbottle for Single Break, a Fullbottle and a Sclash Jelly for Twin Break, or the ClawsDragon for the Let's Break.

ft. another picture of Grease - below him is a demonstration of the head transforming gimmick of Claws Charge (presumably shared by Grease and also used by Rogue below).
Not sure what the deal is with the bottom right - I think maybe the organic half bottles and inorganic half bottles get some special deal in the Sclash Driver, but don't quote me on that.

The Hazard Trigger is what activates the Super Best Match sounds in the Build Driver. Here we see RabbitTank Hazard Form. SumahoWolf Hazard will appear on Youtube in some form.
On the bottom we also see the silhouette from before verified as PhoenixRobo.

Kamen Rider Rogue uses the Crocodile Crack Fullbottle in the Sclash Driver to transform.

The black and gray guys are the Kaisers who use the Nebula Steam Gun and the Gear Engine and Gear Remocon bottles to transform. Note that Engine and Remocon are the Best Matches of Bat and Crocodile respectively.

Toys. Notice how the head transformations work on Claws Charge and Rogue.

What the actual F*CK ?

There is so much to handle. My head don't know where to look at.
Grease out of nowhere.
Is Rogue a good guy now ? (please no)
2 Kaisers out of nowhere using Engine and Remocon
Why are the new best matches divided into Hokuto and Seito specifically ?
Hazard forms ? Because a billions of Best Match and trial forms weren't enough ? >_>
BloodStalk nowhere to be seen (don't tell me it's Grease now >_>)

Damn so much to handle.

That Twin Breaker honestly has to be the shittiest looking weapon in all of Kamen Rider. Just. Jesus. Look at that thing.

Honestly, the Sclash Driver is really garish too. Especially on poor Rogue, who is otherwise an excellent design. Doesn't look amazing on Cross or Gear either though.

RT Hazard looks pretty cool.

So does PhenixRobo.

But I just.

I don't understand.

Build is already going to have two upgrade forms in Sparkling and Hazard. I though that'd mean little to no more new Best Matches next year. Actually, I thought just Sparkling meant that, but seeing Hazard on top of that made me even more sure.

And yet.

And yet, here we are, with another 10 Best Matches. Just, holy shit, dudes. When do they even expect to have time for all this stuff?

Though only five of the new ones not counting PhoenixRobo actually have art showing the forms...I wonder if that means the other four aren't actually going to be used? I can't tell if that would make things better or worse. I want to say worse, though...definitely worse.

But hey. Even if it results in some unbelievably uneven form balance in the series, all these extra Best Matches could make toys very interesting. Well, none of them are getting BCRs, but So-do will definitely have a field day. And, I certainly hope, Remix Riders. With 20 Best Matches, that'd be a solid 400 possible forms, and that's without counting stuff like Cross, Sparkling and Hazard which are also (probably) compatible with the form change gimmicks. That's fucking insane. I pray those series go all-in.

I know, right?
Apparently SumahoWolf, UniRaser, GoldScorpion, and Turtle Watch are categorized in the "Hokuto Arc", while ToraUFO, KujiraJet, ShikaMid, KirinCyclone, and PenguinSkater are in the Seito Arc. The ones in the Hokuto Arc come out during February and the Seito Arc comes out during March. Presumably PhoenixRobo is also in the Hokuto Arc.

Also of note is that RabbitTank Hazard supposedly debuts on February 4th, the exact date of episode 23 assuming there are no breaks. Guess RabbitTank Hazard is the mid-season upgrade. Weird to see such a slim, dark, and sleek form as the next Maximum Gamer.

I love the scrush(obviously scrunch + crush) naming scheme they got going on. So basically they said to hell with shaking bottles lets just scrush it and ooze out the contents. :lolol
I am liking Claws' new look, reminds me of R-1 Max from Rescue Force. Grease I like for that mechanical and grimy look, and Rogue looks menacing. Hazard forms look alright too.

Now that I think about it. Sclash driver, or whatever it is called, looks like the love child of Genesis Driver and Mach Driver.

The only thing that I liked here was the Hazard RabbitTank. Kinda reminds me of a Kuuga Amazing Mighty or all the Mighty forms.

My problem isn't necessarily the designs of these new riders, these just feel thematically different from Build and Claws IMO. I feel like I would see Claws Charge as a form for Meteor. Grease looks like a kitbash of Mugen Head,Cronos Shoulders, and Zolda Chestplate. Kamen Rider Rogue looks like a downgrade, if Nightrogue is gonna become a Kamen Rider. I enjoyed NightRogue and Bloodstark's design a lot, the steampunk feel. These Riders just look generic and out of place IMO. Maybe when I see them onscreen, they will click with me.

Don't get me started on the Toilet Driver...

EDIT: After looking at the Toilet Driver, its not so bad, I didn't notice the handle was a wrench.

I'm just disappointed for some reason, Build has such a good story right now. I was hooked from the 2nd episode, now I feel they are gonna bomb the show with advertisements. I guess I just didn't expect more than 3 riders coming from Ex-Aid. Hope I get surprised.

The new Driver is supposed to be a trash compacter. Gonna give thoughts on the new forms and stuff when I get home from work

Kamen Rider Grease? John Travolota as Kamen Rider confirmed?!

Also KR Claws is officially "Kamen Rider Cross" (TV Asahi site)

Japanese naming sense/consistency again...

There's so much random stuff here I'm going to need to see how it plays into the story before making a judgement. My prediction of more riders (kinda) with another driver was correct but that was a pretty easy one.

Might we end up with some bottles being collected but never used, like the few Shift Cars in Drive that never got a tire?

I feel the third rider rider Grease will be from Hokuto. And FINALLY AN INORGANIC RIDER!

I bet he'll give Sento the robot full bottle & give Banjo an upgrade. He might start off evil at first but later side with good.

I don't see Rogue turning good. THERE'S NO SPIDER FAUST YET!

W-What in the world!? That is an insane amount of stuff! I have no idea what to make of any of it at this point really, but I am feeling the strangest combination of hype and confusion right now.

Holy hell look at all this stuff!

In retrospect, we should've know this would happen when both the heroes and villains of the show can create new tech and weaponry on the fly, but this is way overkill.

New Driver, Rider, Upgrades, Best Matches, Full Bottles, jeez this entire toyline is gonna be crazy expensive by the time the show ends.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
That said, not all of this looks great.
The Twin Breaker, despite being an awesome idea of Pile Bunker that turns into a Gun, is extremely disappointing.

I thought Kamen Rider Rouge looked okay, up until I realized he looks kinda like a male Reversian Succubus Hells from DekaRanger:

https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/...20150803004015

What's more, neither his design nor the Crocodile Crack Full Bottle reference crocodiles in any way other than the teeth decorations on his suit, so why bother saying it's a crocodile at all? Unless it was a reference to the showa era, and I missed it.

Lastly Cross/Claws Charge and Greese look fine except for the patch of all black on their lower legs.

His chest is literally a huge Crocodile head
To be more precise. Smashed glass (crack) shaping into a crocodile head.
I find the design very clever, even if I prefered NightRogue bat form. (and color scheme is a reference to PuToTyra ?)

More like a fusion of Sasword and Kiva.

Sento's actor looks fucked up because of that shot, jesus


Also, Rogue's goal is to militarize the Kamen Riders. Explains why he uses a Driver later then

Time to end the debate. The romanization is Cross-Z.
https://www.twitter.com/_Erasu/statu...15878085439489

Personally I like the name Cross-Z, I think it's cool. The people who were really attached to "Claws" or "Close" are gonna have a fit, though (at least in the Facebook groups I'm in).

With the way we learn about his official name (underwear) I want to call it Gross-Z

I like Cross-Z.

If said as "Cross-Zed", I think it sounds- albeit mildly- like "Crossed". But that's just me.

Judging by the katakana it's just pronounced "Crozz." As in the Z overrides the double S, making it sound like Claws. Punny as ever, Toei.

Although perhaps also a Kamen Rider ZX reference as well...

First look at actual suits of Cross-Z, KeyDragon and KaizokuRessha : https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DMYfSPmWsAAo0RK.jpg

KeyDragon and KaizokuRessha look much cooler than I thought at first.

Movie villain:

Heisei Generations FINAL's Evil Rider Revealed: To be Played by Ryukendo's OP Singer Kenji Ohtsuki
10/18/2017

http://nihonhero.weebly.com/uploads/...10-02_orig.jpg

Toei had announced the True Enemy of Kamen Rider Heisei Generations FINAL: Build & Ex-Aid with Legend Rider. Musician Kenchi Ohtsuki who had previously sung the Theme Song of that Popular Tokusatsu Show "Madan Senki Ryukendo" is going to play this role. He will play the role of an Evil Researcher named Kaisei Mogami who is planning to Destroy Humanity. He wears a Blue colored mask in his human form.
He can transform into a Warrior called Kaiser. According to the latest Bandai Catalog Scan, Nebula Steam Gun and Gear Remocon (Remote Control) (Gear is new Item in Kamen Rider Build that will replace the Full Bottle) to transform into this warrior called Kaiser. It's not known whether it's possible to include him as a Rider. Nebula Steam Gun will be later used by Kamen Rider Rogue as a weapon for him.

For Kenchi Ohtsuki, it will be the First Movie Appearance in the 11 years. Kenchi Ohtsuki was a singer who sang for Tokusatsu but he had been recently affected by Polyp so it's difficult to say that he might sing the Theme Song for movie.

Kamen Rider Build & Kamen Rider Ex-Aid's Crossover Film "Kamen Rider Heisei Generations FINAL: Build & Ex-Aid with Legend Rider" will premiere on December 9. Sota Fukushi (Gentaro Kisaragi / Kamen Rider
Fourze), Gaku Sano (Kota Kazuraba / Kamen Rider Gaim), Shu Watanabe (Eiji Hino / Kamen Rider OOO), Ryosuke Miura (Ankh), Shion Tsuchiya (JK), Ungirls Tanaka (Chuta Ohsugi), Shun Nishime (Takeru Tenkuji / Kamen Rider Ghost) & Takayuki Yanagi (Onari the Detective) are confirmed to appear in the Movie.

Closer look at the villain suits in the FINAL poster.

Something awfully familiar there...
