The site is here: https://eltigris.wordpress.com/2012/...-kamen-riders/

The riders in question are Kazaya Kamen Rider, which if Google Translate is to be trusted, was an unused idea for a series about a guy who cosplays as a Kamen Rider.

The second one, which has the least amount of info, is a "Fog Rider", apparently from a novel based on J? I would assume it's probably just a showa-era style "monster copies the hero with the exact same suit" type deal.

The last one is Kamen Rider Chophopper, another stageshow rider from Kabuto, who is hilariously ugly, even for a stageshow rider, and seems to essentially be a badly repainted/remolded Zectrooper head on a basic trench coat costume with a rider belt. The picture on the site isn't very good, but you can find some better ones by Googling his name in Japanese (googling it in English pretty much just gets you this site).

Can anyone dig up any more info on these guys?

EDIT: Looked up the stage show listed, and found a video of Chophopper. He's definitely a joke character, right down to his zecter being the hopper zecter, but facing outward in a truly unfortunate way:

Stage shows deviate to a certain extent because the stuff they do is not necessarily canon. Which is why they can play out all the toku fan dream teams like nobody's business and sometimes include original villains/characters that are non-canon.
