The Spooky Kamen Rider Ghost Toy Thread

barnstenchfartface · 11-04-2015, 02:12 PM

I think I saw a preview picture of a YouTube video with a DX Ore with a chrome eye...didn't actually see the video though, so I am unsure...

What I'm really wondering about though, is the difference between the SG and Gashapon versions. They look identical for the most part, but I don't know if the plastic quality and internal mechanism is the same.

Anyway, ordered sets 8 and 9 of the Gashapons. HLJ had them at 1920 a set, which is a price I am very comfortable with.

Since 8 most likely has Houdinis though, I'm really considering just skipping on the DX Machine Hoodie or waiting for the Eyecon to pop up on the aftermarket alone...

I don't have DX versions other than the ore eyecon but as far as I can tell, the casing are all identical mold wise. It's three separate pieces (outer clear lens, white eye half and colored back half) so you don't have to worry about having stickers rip or anything swapping them. You can't however, swap the internals. The rotating part in the middle has a larger peg size on the candy toy than the DX, so you can fit the candy toy mechanisms with the DX rotating piece but not vice versa.

DX Left, Candy Right

The switch mechanisms share the same concept, but the DX one (in black) is a bit more complex while the candy one seems to be a simplified version. Plastic quality is different too

I had an idea that would solve the issue with the number of horns. If the designers designed Ghost and Specter's transient forms to have the horns already, then they could swap Eyecons as much as they want and the toys would be accurate.

But there wouldn't be any way for the masks to fit both of them in that case.

Speaking of this though. I'm wondering if any Eyecons Specter steals would change appearance when he uses them (blue iris, two horns, slim chin). If so, I wonder if they'll release like, a "Edison Ghost Eyecon (Specter Ver.)" as a Gashapon or something...

Ah thanks watty for letting me know cause I want to order some in the future and know what to expect.

Kind of disappointing that the four fingers just kind of hang off the side in gun mode. The angle it's at in the product images is very misleading...

Wow. The Cobra actually unlocks more sounds in the Gangun Saber. Awesome. Ghost Tut Damashii confirmed?

The Cobra Mobile has compatibility with the Gan Gun Saber. It makes it light up blue and its finisher says Omega Crash. Ghost Tutankhamun Damashii?

I'm kinda thinking that maybe the Cobra just shares its pegs with the Spider. Crash sounds like it'd fit the hammer...Ghost Tut would be cool, though. It's bull that the Saber can use the Cobra but apparently the Hand can't use anything else, though.

But the Daikaigan makes a hissing/cellphone sound. I really do hope there's at least one more Specter gadget, though...

Ah. I didn't watch it with sound since I was in class. Guess Ghost's getting Tut then.

Odd that it wouldn't just be fang like on the Hand, though...
