Interesting. Is there a source on this? Not really doubting it, just curious.

I think Boost may be introduced just as a cameo for the series, though.

Based just on the fact that the toy catalog gave us some info on what toys the movie is getting--a 2 Eyecon pack for the DX line, and a 2 Parka Ghost pack for the GC line. The implication (the way i see it) is that the parkas correspond to the Eyecons. If Boost was one of the Eyecons (which he probably would be if he was just a movie exclusive Rider) I can't see his hood just being released alone for the GC line without a new base figure....though of course, I also can't really see a movie exclusive Rider get a figure in the main gimmick toy line. (sounds more like a premium bandai thing if anything)

So what the hell, maybe Boost is one of the Eyecons but the GC thing comes with Newton instead. I don't know.
