Well, hello guys. Basically, I have tons of words about Ex-Aid's 2nd quarter toy catalog. I must say........ I'm disappointed for most of the time and for this year's toys. Really, I tried my best to shrug off the bad style for Ex-Aid's toys but the more it goes, the more it goes worse. There are still some good designs for the Riders, like Brave and Lazer, but I'm still disappointed for so. For instance, I thought Dragon Hunter will be a much cooler concept of Gaim Jimber Arms since it could be used with multiple features for multiple Riders. But, oh boy, I was so dead wrong, not only that they made Dragon Hunter Gashat to be so plasticily, they also made the form to be a crappy armor body for the Riders. I even don't really notice any differences for Brave and Snipe Dragon Hunter forms, except for the shoulder. The helmet itself is really disappointing.

I also now really hate Ex-Aid's suit, especially due to Double Smash Bros form appears. Really, it's already bad for Ex-Aid to have a bit over the top design and they took it a level up much more!! I really hate the crappy hair there, even Ex-Aid's original hair is much better. And didn't you see that the Double Bros have that LVL 1's head mask on the shoulder!? Man, I want to see how comfortable that suit is for Takaiwa-san.... And.... The weapon itself is a lackluster. Sunglasslasher was much better to have two modes and if it doesn't have it, I will be disappointed!!

But, move on that, I love the rest part of the catalog. I LOVE Genm Zombie Gamer. He looks like Mashin Chaser's long lost brother. With Genm totally badass till now, I can't wait to see it's cool design and action later. I also love Paradox here. The golden part really mixed well there. But it's hard to take it seriously if Paradox will be a bad guy. The color and the eyes really fade the evil aura in it. It's a good thing about the compatibility of the Dual Gear with Gamer Driver. And I can't wait what it will produce if Paradox uses Gamer Driver.

Overall, it's once again the non-main Rider that saves the whole route of toys this year. I don't know why but I felt the designer was so lazy this year and lost most of the inspirations. They put much more heart toward Ghost last year. I just hope the execution in the show will be better. Who knows? Even the screaming-final form Kiwami Arms has a greater impact to the story. Since, we will usually get main Rider's Super form in March, I will see how it will work. I hope other Riders will get the same treatment too.
