With the premise of Super Gotchard being that his forms use Clear/Translucent armor like Grease or Cross-Z Charge, rather than the Chromed out look of his base side forms.

Personally... I like it.

The Blueish eyes make a good contrast with the golden X on his face. While the rest of his helmet is now black + the Chemy's personal colors. And the translucent helmets and armors both compliment the undersuit very nicely.

Kamen Rider Dread... Looks really good.

He's basically a Showa villain that Toei is slapping the title "Kamen Rider" on to sell better. (The more monstrous design, the arsenal of weapons completely divorced from the rest of the toy line, the name even)

I actually did a quick check on this, while the belt is very clearly using the Demons Driver's tech. The Assault armor chest on Zero One and Vulcan is a smooth circle of glass/plastic, it doesn't have that dot molded into the very center. Same for the Legs/Shoes, the ridges of Vulcan's legs aren't that pronounced.

That said, this is modern Toei. So the chances for remold/repainting is still high.

Looking back at it, while the chest does remind me a bit of Assault, the shoulders and arms seem to take after Drive Type Speed.
It looks a Kamen Rider version of Guyver.
