So it looks like the front fruit part of the lock has a hinge and it opens up as you slice with the blade.

The suit designs look really good here.Gaim's eyes/visor have a pretty nicely done orange slice pattern in them.I wish that kinda subtlety was put into the weapons.

The orange sword and grape gun look WAY too obvious :p

Just a really minor thing,but it would've looked much nicer if that kind detail flowed into the design of the weapon instead of just being slapped on there.It just looks less ap-peeling.(Gaim's doing one thing great already,adding puns to the discussion) :lol

so are those forms or different riders?

and I will admit that pic makes the suits looks pretty snazzy

I have a really good feeling about this series.I can just picture a monster getting slice by the Orange Blade and screaming "So.....much.....FFLLLLLAAAAVVVVOOORRRR!!!" and exploding.

Honestly,I love the look of the suits too.For them to make them fruit based riders and pull it off as well as they did,kudos to them.I have a feeling I'm going to also like the Banana themed rider.Something about him just screams badass.Maybe he's in a rivalry with the main rider over which fruit is more popular.lol

I think they have to be forms. They all have the same belt(or at least 3/5 visibly do). Why make 5 riders and sell one belt? That's not Bandai's way.

Ryuki?

Lots of information on the webpage.
Sorry don't have time to do translation for I'm at work.
All I can say is the Riders are street dancer teams, and Rider battles are games.
There is 1 female Rider announced.
Feel free to work on it. :)

Holy freaking God I love this. So he puts in the Seed, slaps down the knife on his belt, and Henshin! And his sword is adamned Orange Slice! Toei, you have just made my most favorite thing ever! O_O

Awwwwww those colors...are delicious. :eek:
