I'd assume so, yeah. I wouldn't have been overly surprised if they didn't cover Sabela, Durandal or Solomon but we've now gone without Primitive, Elemental and Tategami so... uh, yeah. Guess it's done for at least this season

I'm holding my breath. The RKF blog has been very active since Saber started, and only stopped doing weekly posts(as of 2 months ago) because they didn't want to post anything RKF related unless they had news.

Considering how long and hard this line has kicked overall, I wouldn't count on it genuinely being dead until it's announced so.

It's pretty bizarre to me - the line picked up a lot of traction for Saber. Incredible levels of improvement compared to Zi-O and Zero-One. I knew these figures being so fucking cheap would eventually kill the line, but I would never expect it to happen in the middle of the series.

Fingers crossed that they at least finish Saber. If they decide to release 2-4 figures a month again, they could easily wrap things up. One of my most anticipated releases, Oma Zi-O, came out almost a year after Zi-O's series ended, so it's possible that they continue RKF Saber and release Revice's new toy line(or they stick to RKF) at the same time.

I think the worst case scenario to expect is the line ends with RKF Cross Saber. They did mention that this could possibly be RKF's last year, but they've also covered almost every final form even for series' that have long ended, so we'll at least see that.

Is there any candy toys version of the big wonder ride book especially dragonic knight?

Yes, actually! This tiny keychain candy toys of some Q2 Saber stuff. Altho, if you meant ones that make sounds, you're out of luck.

Oh! Never seen it. How big is it? I don't need any sounds. Just for my RKF background

Hmm, let's say small enough for you to make fist with that on your hand and hide it. Or, I guess a small battery?

That's tiny as heck!

Omg that's soo tiny. I'll wait the dx price drop, then

Oh those are really cool, wow!

After loosing hope for Saber’s final form is in red, (eventough we still don’t know wether Cross Saber is te real final or not), I think im good for my Saber’s RKFs sets. Yea, i can let go the RKFs now, if they’re cancelled.

Two Form-changing Sabers which means two Dragonic Knights

Ah, I see someone has good taste.

Thank you. Invested in saber thanks to Crimson Dragon. Hero with flappy flapflap is my kind of aesthetics. Put a red color in his armor, sold!

But The sleek and mature Dragonic Knight slowly took my breath away. And thats why i have to sets of this RKFs because i can’t decide wich armor i want to put in the body. Oh, and also, i did small repaint so i can have my own SaiyuDragon

https://scontent-sin6-1.xx.fbcdn.net...ba&oe=60DA41ED

plus turn out RKFs share a same height with old SHS. My Saber can fight alongside with V3, now~!

Xross Saber sword toy

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RVOm7B4noZc

That jingle is so Hyper Muteki! I really need to know why they won't show what Hybrid Saber is and why does it specifically only require Dragon Arthur.

Hybrid Saber is probably just an auxiliary form - ergo irrelevant and exists just for toy purposes. Wouldn't be the first time a final form had something like that.

Since June scans are out, the only chance of Xross Saber having anything else up its sleeve would be in July, or episode 40 onwards.

Hybrid Saber is the equivalent to Wonder Rider: The generic jingle the sword makes when the books used don't have a combo.

Hot dang Xross Saber's jingle is hilariously long. Might as well make that the show's theme song lol.

Brave Dragon for some reason has a unique sound (I think) for Noroshi

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=63ZSwYauFuw

This is apparently the other way around -- Konchuu Daihyakka has a unique sound in the sword due to its unique mold (ie her normal henshin phrase), while every other Ridebook activates a generic Wonder Rider sound

Ohh, that makes more sense.

Still, odd that Needle Hedgehog plays Konchuu Daihyakka while Brave Dragon played something different. That or I'm being obtuse.

The Needle Hedgehog they showed is just what they were using for their prototype

It's not the unique mold. A long press of the trigger turns Noroshi(and Kaiji) from its Standard Mode to its Extra Volume Mode. The Standard Mode's transformation and finishers are themed around their base WRB, while the Extra Volume Mode turns the sounds more generic, themed around the sword's element.

For example, Noroshi's first finisher in Standard Mode is "Insect Shot", while in Extra Volume Mode it's "Smoke Strike".

This blog post explains it, it's in Japanese, but machine transaltion is enough to get the gist of it. At most some of the names might not translate properly.

Neat. I may try and get the Kaiji at least.

I wonder something. What would the price be for a Set containing the Dooms Driver Buckle, the Belt Parts, the Omni Force Wonder Ride Book, and the Caladbolg Sword? The Dooms Driver Buckle is yet another Jaken Caliburdriver Repaint after the Seiken Saikou Driver. The Omni Force Wonder Ride Book is a remold of the X-Swordsman Wonder Ride Book, and the Caladbolg Sword is a Repaint/Retool of the Kingexcalibur, with it's own ability to become the King of Solomon Robot. If you were to buy them, how much would you pay for that entire set?

Apparently the belt straps of the CSM Sengoku Driver fit the DX Swordriver?? A bit unexpected and random but pretty cool if you happen to be a fan of both!

Hmm, maybe they're trying to make a universal belt clip system? What if Revice's Driver uses the same clips so it's compatible with both of those?

Majority of drivers since abouuuut OOO* have had very similar belt clips, other than oddballs like drive or possibly a few cases where it goes in at a different angle due to the belt width (there's also a few like the Shotriser that have a different system altogether). I don't think they're all compatible necessarily but it's not a surprise that many seemingly are!

*...come to think of it, it might even be Accel? To my knowledge the DoubleDriver was the last to do the odd "one side of the belt clip can't be removed" thing, though I think the CSM 1.5 may even have corrected that

The Dooms Driver Buckle set has been revealed.

And apparently, the name of Storious’ Rider form is “Kamen Rider Strius”

Most likely just a translation mishap. Even the RealxTime toys had some translation errors.

Storious' book and the Uchusen book still refers to him as "Storious".

That's not a very iilustrius name.

FYI, for those interested, today's toy blog post confirms that there are currently no plans to release Caladbolg, Master Logos' sword. They basically state that it falls into the same limbo that Yujou Burst was previously. But they do imply that if the Omniforce/Grimoire set sells well, they might consider releasing it.

HG Girls Sudo Mei opens for pre-order today. 2000 yen P-Bandai

Edit: suddenly got a notif from Zenmarket. I failed, she sold out immediately!

Sales figures are now out for Saber's Q2 and Q3. They're down a little from Zero-One but still basically the same

https://i.redd.it/33hxfjwdumf71.jpg

They cut Saber’s RKF. i think its where the toys sale is under the 01

I’d assume it’s just because 01 is extraordinarily popular. Saber so far is still one of Rider’s bestselling toylines assuming it keeps to its pace

Well, I bought my first RKF with Calibur! ... Don't think I'll do that again!

I made sure to temper my expectations going into it, it is a kid's figure after all; but so much about it just doesn't work for me at all and actually seems to go against that? The main gimmick of "rip off and replace the torso for a completely different design" works well, and certain parts like Jaaku's head have very nice paint apps, but it's all the little things around it -- the hands are awful to try and replace, and the ones that are supposed to hold the sword always end up dropping it. The head articulation is blocked badly by the collar, the plastic quality just feels ~slimy~ in a way that's hard to get across... I dunno.

I might have just gotten a bad copy (it didn't help that this one's sword was bent which Manda didn't mention...) but I remember the gimmick figures in Ex-Aid, Drive and OOO being far far better than this. I'll be replacing this with a SO-DO Jaou Dragon if it's cheap at my next opportunity and not revisit this line again, I think

(should this thread still be pinned btw?)

As a huge fan of RKF, honestly their only selling point is that they're ridiculously cheap for what they offer. I don't like the soft plastic that they use because it means that painting them will eventually lead to the paint chipping or breaking - and these figures REALLY need paint more than anything else.

I also absolutely HATE the fact that they have universal weapon holding hands. It makes no fucking sense for that to be a thing when practically every single Kamen Rider weapon has a different sized grip. Even Kenzan's weapons don't share the same grip on the RKF.

Bent accessories is a pretty big problem with this line too - because again, soft plastic.

I ended up dropping this line because SO-DO figures are basically perfect action figures once you've sealed the stickers(the fact they use hard plastic makes this process much easier, too). The only things RKF had going for it were fast releases and the vast Legend Rider selection - neither of which are things that they do anymore.
