And yet.

And yet, here we are, with another 10 Best Matches. Just, holy shit, dudes. When do they even expect to have time for all this stuff?

Though only five of the new ones not counting PhoenixRobo actually have art showing the forms...I wonder if that means the other four aren't actually going to be used? I can't tell if that would make things better or worse. I want to say worse, though...definitely worse.

But hey. Even if it results in some unbelievably uneven form balance in the series, all these extra Best Matches could make toys very interesting. Well, none of them are getting BCRs, but So-do will definitely have a field day. And, I certainly hope, Remix Riders. With 20 Best Matches, that'd be a solid 400 possible forms, and that's without counting stuff like Cross, Sparkling and Hazard which are also (probably) compatible with the form change gimmicks. That's fucking insane. I pray those series go all-in.

I know, right?
Apparently SumahoWolf, UniRaser, GoldScorpion, and Turtle Watch are categorized in the "Hokuto Arc", while ToraUFO, KujiraJet, ShikaMid, KirinCyclone, and PenguinSkater are in the Seito Arc. The ones in the Hokuto Arc come out during February and the Seito Arc comes out during March. Presumably PhoenixRobo is also in the Hokuto Arc.

Also of note is that RabbitTank Hazard supposedly debuts on February 4th, the exact date of episode 23 assuming there are no breaks. Guess RabbitTank Hazard is the mid-season upgrade. Weird to see such a slim, dark, and sleek form as the next Maximum Gamer.
