We just don't know at this point. Perhaps you're right though and they will often swap Eyes with each other. I find it strange that whoever recorded these just so happened to skip the jingle entirely on both Nobu and Tut. Provided I'm right and those do have Specter's Jingle however, based on the skipped standby and the tone of the voice, I have a hunch Grimm will be one of Specter's forms too. But who knows?

More than just the different iris colors, there's also the fact that the face patterns clearly have the appropriate number of horns. And then there's the oddly cleanly defined numbers between them which really raise a lot of questions.

It's just really weird, though. The idea that Takeru would then have 20 forms or something. Just doesn't make a lot of sense. They have to be broken up or divided between separate Riders, that's just the only logical thing. But the jingle is certainly an oddity.

On the other hand, Specter could just be a special butterfly and be unique in having his own jingle, while everyone else has Ghost's. It...would be weird. But then, they weren't exactly super consistent with the Sengoku Driver's sounds either...so who the hell really knows.

I don't quite agree with this either for a couple reasons. First, that assumes a second Driver would use anything like Eyecons at all, about which I remain skeptical. Second, if that were the case you'd think there would be more Great Women Eyecons. I somehow doubt they'd miss the opportunity and pass up things like Joan of Arc, Amelia Earhart, or Cleopatra. That said, if any of those sounds are found in the future, I might be convinced.

The last couple of Rider series have all had functionally interchangeable transformation devices between Drivers. The Lockseeds and Energy Lockseeds and Shift Cars and Signal Bikes work in fairly similar ways and are compatible with both Drivers. (I think? I don't know if the toy Gaim Drivers can do this but the Drive ones certainly can) Since in Ghost the transformation items are actually a crucial part of the storyline as opposed to just tools like they've been for a while, I wouldn't be too surprised if they mainly stuck with just Eyecons even if we got a new Driver. Especially since, as we just saw, there are quite a lot of them.

Anyway, I say that, but I'm honestly just throwing out ideas, not to be taken too seriously. I really have no idea.
