No one's really explained to me the difference between gashapon and candy toy, but I know it's probably not DX:

That's the Gashapon. Here's a pic that can explain which is which (note that the most recent Gashapon's hinge appearance now matches the Candy Toy's hinges)

Gashapon Left, Candy Toy Right

DX:

Note that in the belt, for Gashapon's and Candy Toys, you have to keep "slicing" to get the sounds out, as they go in a cycle. Also, neither contain LEDs unless they are the special Rider Lock Seeds. Gashapon's announce the Rider and the Arms they have after you do the Finishing move slash, while Candy Toy says a phrase. For DX, there is a switch to turn it on and off at the bottom, the sounds are locked in so that when you put it in the belt, 1 = squash, 2 -

Alright, so it looks like the CT version has a brighter plastic. Good to keep in mind. Honestly I'm not too concerned with the belt right now, I just think it'd be neat to stand the SHF/AC figures next to their Arms' respective lock.

I'm just going to assume it's a steal for Blood Orange, but what do you think about the price for Banana?

Problem is that if you wanna install an LED in the Candy Toy version, the plastic is Opaque.

I'm gonna guess the Blood Orange is a Gashapon too, after taking a look through the seller's items.

Are you gonna get the Driver?

At some point in the future I may try to grab one of the DX Driver sets off of CS Toys, but right now it's not a huge priority.

Well, I'd say just wait for the Driver if you don't mind waiting for Banana. Blood Orange, you can go for. Especially since trying to get the DX for anything less than $50 is pretty much impossible now.
