Best Henshin Belt/Transformation Device
 

Well if we can have a topic for highlighting the worst the show has brought us why not have one highlighting the best the show has brought us?

Let the discussion begin!

Sengoku driver. Especially with the Genesis Core attached. It blends Symmetry and Asymmetry so well.

The gears from Faiz. They are more like equipment and they look nice. Plus, the main part of the belt (the phones) are practical sizes if a belt like that existed.

Wizardriver. Its the sleekest gimmick belt we've had and it looks clean and great.

Blade belts. While they don't do much, they aren't intrusive and look really nice on the Riders, in any form.

I don't watch a lot of Kamen rider but i love the belt from OOO.

Faiz for me. If any sort of henshin device existed in the real world, it'd probably look something like Faiz. I love that it all has to be put together before the user can use it, and how key components of it look like regular every day devices that function as neat gadgets. I also like that it's not tied to any specific user, which makes it kinda feel more like a weapon than just a costume and that we, to a degree, kinda understand the technology behind the belt. And to top it all off, the belt's voice is absolute SEXY and accomplishes a lot when it comes to the tech-y feel of the gear without giving us a plot synopsis of its life story, unlike a lot of Rider belts, mostly from the Neo-Heisei era.

Standing by...

Yeah, the gears from Faiz are freaking awesome. I love 'em. And dat voice...

Also, A-MA-ZON! because nothing says that you're transforming to kick some fucking ass like screaming out your name.

I also really dug the henshin devices from Hibiki simply for being so different, and I thought the henshins themselves were quite cool.

And I know a lot of people hate it, but I loved the Fourze driver. Everything from the sounds it made to what it actually did, it's one of the best gimmicks we've had IMO, the module change was really really cool. And the countdown to the actual henshin was used quite nicely at times to build up the tension.

Oh and to an extent the sengoku driver, or at the very least the lockseeds. A really fun little gimmick and the only actual gimmick items I own are the Durian and Ryuki lockseeds. I mean yeah I have a "last one" switch, but it's just a lightup keychain.

W Driver. It's simple with a unique design and original function for it's time.

I'm fond of the DecaDriver myself. A versatile and unintrusive card scanning gimmick combined with a simple look that clearly evokes the classic Showa Rider belts while still being visually distinct.

I'm also pretty fond of the Sengoku Driver and it's gimmick. The belt itself is simple but has room for expansion and the Lock Seeds are the best gimmick Rider has ever had IMO.

Faiz Gear. Best gimmick when it came out.

Kabuto Zector: That cast off and rider kick mechanism still is awesome.

Den-O Belt: Swipe for henshin!

Decade Driver: Simple and nice.

OOO driver because it allowed the user the power of three animals at once also it looks awesome and can come up with catchy songs.

Ta-To-Ba, TaToBa, Ta-To-Ba

Sengoku Driver and its counterpart, Genesis Driver. So much diverse abilities, and combinations.
