Don't hold me to this because I break promises a lot - I had a lot more good to say about Ryuki than I thought, which is nice! - but I definitely think this is the point I'm gonna konk out aside from when there's a funny good toy. I'm afraid Faiz is a show I don't have much good to say about -- it's a very marmite show, I find. You either completely vibe with what it's going for; you love what it's doing; or you really, really don't. It's probably one of if not the most polarising Riders I've seen, and you can probably tell which 'side' I'm on.

Still! ... I like the belt! Come to think of it actually, there's a couple early merch things I gotta talk about as they happen. And the Faiz Belt is one of them -- a lot of people love how simple and realistic it is and I really gotta agree. Even if it's not something I want to totally see a return to (if we stuck to this we'd never have Taka Kujaku Condoru, like; come on), it's really nice for what it is. Just a good ol' flip-phone that reminds me of when I used to play Snake when bored sitting in the car and then it takes a step-up over your usual Sentai changer by shoving it into a belt. Epic.
