Stronger was the first with a super form, but Ichigou had, like, 3 different suits.

Amazon's torso changed color from yellow to red inexplicably around halfway through, so There Is That.

It's weird though, because (from what I remember) it happened after Amazon got a shirt. Once he got the shirt, they had to redo the Henshin sequence, and in the new transformation, Amazon already had red pecs...but it took them a couple of episodes to actually start using the new suit. So he started transforming to red Amazon, but he was still yellow afterwards. They did switch to red fully soon enough, but it was kinda weird for a bit there.

That doesn't have anything to do with anything, it's just a funny weird thing.

It depends on how you look at forms. Ichigo had three suits, Stronger had a power up, and Super-1 had different armaments to equip. So yeah, just really depends on how you look at forms and what not.

Like others have said, Rider 1 technically had his new form that debuted when Fujioka returned to the series full-time (and Rider 2 eventually got his own version of that suit, too). That wasn't something he could change in and out of, though, it was just a better constructed costume. The first Rider with a second form that he could change into and back out of was Stronger with his Charge Up form.

Hmmm......I think what I was wanting to get at was form shifting. Like Wizard's styles, Gaim's Lockseeds, etc..

Black RX, then probably? He had Bio and Robo rider forms.

Just saw somewhere that Super-1 had changing gauntlets.

Yeah, he did. I guess that technically does count since you noted changes like colors and weapons in your original question. Super-1's hands probably did lay the foundation for specialized forms to come in later on, actually...


edit: though then again, Riderman had something like that too sort of?

Yeah, I found this rendition of Super-1 and I like it.

He did. He could manually change what was on the top of his rope bundle.
