Wow, if they can make a civil form of a rider then Bandai can make all the main riders civil forms.

On top of S.H. Figuarts Hongo is Kamen Rider Black Luminous Ver! A reuse of Renewal Black with LED compound eyes and a special Stage Act Wireless set!

The Hongo looks pretty freaking awesome. A part of me kind of hopes it doesn't become a trend though just because I'm sure I'll be wanting them. :lol But this is really cool for fans of him.

I hope they make Figuarts of characters like Shotaro and Philip, Eiji (Complete with underwear on a stick), and Kazuma.
I don't really have any connection to Hongo, unfortunately.

Black with light up eyes is neat, but I'm fine with my current Black~

Just when we thought the Rider rabbit hole was done, Bandai just goes "Nope! Think again!"


I wonder how many of these civilian forms we'll see though. Many Rider actors have pretty much removed themselves from any involvement with the franchise.

Also I know people hate this but I just have to....Rider civilian forms before Kiva :lol

As long as I get (main wise) Kotaro, Godai, Takumi, Tendou, and Shotaro/Philip I'd be a happy camper.

butseriouslyibettergetshfkusaka:lol

So with Hongo revealed, I'm calling it- we'll see a SS Ichigo by the Winter Event next year.

Just give me Ren and Kouta and I'll consider this done. Maybe Gentaro.

I'd be cool with a Shinji, Kouta, Eiji, Shotaro, Takumi and Philip.

I'd love to see some secondary and tertiary riders as well but I doubt we'll see it any time soon.

It's possible that it's just a "proof of concept". They may have others lined up first that they want to do, they just chose Black due to his popularity and I suppose the glowing eyes are distinctive for him.

I can easily see this being applied to Kabuto riders at some point.

Well, again, it may depend entirely on the actor's willingness to allow use of their likenesses. In some cases the Second and Tertiary might be all they can get.
