Yeah, I can see why people think the bikes lately are superfluous, but I came in with Ex-Aid, and there are basically no bikes in it? It's a show where the bike is like I Would Rather Not Be A Bike Anymore, and that really colored my perception on the necessity of bikes.

But, yeah, back in the early Heisei days, the bikes were a little more integral. Hell, Blade even did a two-parter about an awesome new bike! I mean, it's the worst story, just utter dogshit, but they did it!

Edit 2: Also Also how do you feel about the riders from series with large casts (gaim, ryuki, spring to mind as the easiest ones to complete)

Not crazy about Monster suits right now. That may change down the line, but my collecting right now is about hero suits. (Not even doing villain Rider suits! Specifically picked the Dangerous Zombie suit from when he was on Team Ex-Aid!) I can see myself getting some of the more memorable Monster suits down the line, though. Nazca and Clay Doll, probably. The Hokuto Three Crows. Just not right now, I think.

For the larger casts, I'm mostly just sticking with core heroes for right now. (Excepting Ex-Aid, 'cause I love it too much.) Gaim is probably just going to be Gaim/Baron/Ryugen/Zangetsu, as SO-DO intended. Eventually I'll want Bravo and the rest, but not right away. Same thing with Ryuki: all Riders at some point, but probably just Ryuki/Knight/Zolda/maybe Ouja to start.

It's like... I think I'm collecting in these concentric circles, going from Mains to Mains+Secondaries to Mains+Secondaries+Villains to Mains+Secondaries+Villains+Upgrades and so on, just letting each circle fill up before moving onto the next.
