Not only that, the voice is almost completely unintelligible. Short of the IXA belt, it's the least understandable belt ever.

what about Sagark/Saga? although it is one of my fav belts.

That's depressing for a toy that only says two words...

personally I would love a complete selection belt of sagark.

accel belt(double) was my favorite and my first kamen rider belt very simple.

Wizard Driver. Big in a bad way, annoying voice that sings, and it never shuts the hell up.

The Ryuki belt is so much worse. You get a noise for putting a deck into it, a noise for taking a card, and a tiiiiiiny red light when you take a card out. That's it.

The BlayBuckle at least has that panel flip gimmick. Trust me, it's more amusing than it should be when you have one in hand.

Really? I should get one.

WizarDriver

But if we talk just toys, DiEnd driver, I think it barely has all the sounds the DecaDriver did even though it had a lot more in the show.

Birth's, Meteor's and Beast's belts. The fact that they're cheaper belts with less functionality and thier gimmicks just can be used in the fancy main driver anyways, it just makes the secondary Riders feel like side kicks rather then full on heroes. This also carries over to the shows too, where the main rider is kicking ass and the secondary Rider is using the same thing for the 50th time.

This has mainly been a Post Decade thing. The only two belts in this era that get away with it are Accel's and the Genesis Riders' mainly due to thier gimmick being about timing sounds from the gaiamemory or lockseed rather then putting a collectible in with the belt having built in sounds. And the fact that both were written to be on decent power levels in comparison to the main rider.

Oh, the DienDriver toy is worse than that. It doesn't even read cards, just plays the sounds for the four cards it comes with in a pre determined order.

If I recall, a big problem is that the Diendriver doesn't have a card scanner at all.

That is worse than I thought. Why did they put all the time into Decades but none into DiEnds?

Not to go all anti Heisei, but I think starting with Double, the belts have been becoming more and more elaborate and complicated. There's too much standing around, posing, listening to jingles and switching items. It's especially bad when it comes to form changing, which I think is becoming less and less necessary in shows with multiple riders (this being one of the few problems I have with Gaim).

I hope Drive is a return to something at least a bit simpler.

Kaxia Gear, you put that on and your life is forfeit.

Ah DiEnd. Everything about you is terrible, even your toys.

Getting back to the topic I'll say Skyrider's belt design doesn't work for me. I know his show was meant to bring KR back to basics but Riders 1 and 2 pulled the look off better IMO.

Six pages in and it's still the WizarDriSHABADOOBIE TOUCH TO OMFG Shut up!

Totally worth it to get to play with Side Basshar and the Blaygun.

I thought the Meteor Driver's disco/planetarium thing was pretty cool, but I can understand why people disliked Birth's and Beast's.

Drago Timer was a cool toy, taking into consideration its sounds grated like 20 nails on a chalkboard.

Going along with my other post in the "Best Henshin Belt/Transformation Device" thread.

A bad henshin belt to me should fall under most (if not all) of the following:

a) Looks too toy-ish
b) Bulky or obtrusive shape or design
c) Sound friggin' annoying

Going on with Heisei series, since that's all I've watched, the ones I consider worst would be:

1) Fourze Driver = Looks WAY too much like a toy, awkward activation handle, and is way too bulky.

2) Meteor Driver = Mostly the same reasons as the Fourze Driver

3) Beast Driver = Looks ok when closed, but the door-flaps are seriously not streamlined when open.

4) WizarDriver = Despite it looking rather cool and works well, but that freakin' SHABIDOOBIE--- GO TO HELL!

5) Sengoku Driver = I'll probably get some flak for this one. I like the sounds, I like the general silhouette... I just don't like the knife that sticks out. Kills the streamlined look.

Everything from Faiz. I dislike both the designs and the sounds. The only cool thing is how the drivers work, putting the phone into the belt like that sure looks fun. But that's about it...

Kamen Rider Ichigo and Nigou's belt. You can access your belt any second because wind is everywhere. He could henshin without meaning to.

Man, you guys sure have a lot to complain about a Japanese children's show.

Could sentai be included in this thread as well or is it strick kamen rider

That's kinda our thing. But we also have a lot to love about it too.

Just wanted to add another to the list. The Drive Driver. That thing looks so bulky and terrible, despite it being all chrome and shiny and having a seatbelt be the belt that wraps around.
