Ghost did it first, actually. I mean, the users weren't the same, but Dark Ghost pulled out the two special forms in the summer movie.

But yeah, it's impressive just how much the writer was able to use literally every side-story and special and tie it into the show in some way. Some of it may be tenuous or technically unnecessary, but there's a continuity and attention to detail there that is appreciated. The way even Build's obligatory Ex-Aid appearances were used for foreshadowing (and then how the writer went out of his way to smooth over some continuity foibles with it in the show) is really cool. With modern Rider shows having like half a dozen extraneous media scattered all over the place it can feel haphazard, but it's neat when they really try to make everything count for something even a little. Ex-Aid did that ok, but I think Build has probably handled all that stuff the best.
