That's always been insane to think about to me, with how much both Rider and Sentai are generally all about keeping the show and the merch in sync with each other. Surely a lot of children in 2006 were extremely disappointed when they went to slap the side of their belts all cool like Tendou always does, only to realize nothing was happening because there aren't even electronics there?

But then, those were still sweet toys anyway, so they probably got over it pretty quick.

The thing that gets me is that Kabuto was one of the first series that SH Figuarts tackled, covering all the show's Riders, the movie Riders, and even Zectroopers, but they never did any of the Masked Forms. Hell, even when SIC did their super fancy release, the add-on parts were for the Final Form Ride, not the Masked armor.
