This is very random but I'm kinda shocked that with the anmount of people who seemingly want/expect a Faiz connection in Geats I don't think I've seen anyone mention that our Penguin rider's helmet does seem to be reminiscent of Kaixa's helmet?
I don't think it means much of anything personally, I feel like there's a good chance it's a total coincidence. I'm just surprised I haven't seen it be a big thing (unless it was and I missed it lol) |

Oh yeah I did notice it but I was caught up in the hype announcements that night that I sorta forgot.
No matter what happens with Ginpen, I will forever stand by his side. Even if he kills someone at Christmas. Even if he's somehow Kaixa reincarnated. Though I do find it funny that his helmet resembles Kaixa's. |

This evil Rider person will have a hard time being taken seriously by people who suffered through Kamen Rider Wizard, because the first thought coming out of my brain after reading the name "Kamen Rider Buffa" was:
"Bu-Bu-Bububu-Buffa!" The second was "Mayonnaise". |

Personally I'm very confused about a lot of the information we're getting from both official sources and leaks...
It's very strange to me that Buffa is the one who's items are coming with the item holder set / the belt and holder combo set... I wonder if Buffa will be a really big part of the show... at the very least at the start. It would be sort of fun to have a rival/villain character who shares focus with our protagonist It's still baffling to me if it's true that Tycoon is the secondary rider, but also won't have an ID core released until it is sold through a Christmas campaign?? This genuinely leaves me with a LOT of questions, because that is just weeeeiiiiiiiiird... I suppose it's possible that maybe Tycoon won't become a proper active character in the show until like Q2 and the christmas campaign will serve as an "early" chance to get your hands on his ID Core with a proper release coming later?? Or maybe his will be a gashapon or candy toy exclusive, with the campaign version being more in line with the DX items??? I have no idea, it's very confusing to me lol At the moment I'm getting the impression that at the very least from a suit and toy-release perspective Geats may wind up being a very atypical show (which isn't bad, but I'd really like to know why there's so many oddities in the alledged toy schedule) Last edited by TheJaz; 08-02-2022 at 10:26 AM.. |

For some reason, many see Geats as a connection to Kabuto, so maybe the situation with the secondary rider will be similar and in the first quarter of the show Tycoon (or what is his real name?) will be an ally without armor / weak player in basic form, and just before Christmas becomes a full-fledged rider. |

I like Buffa's design. The eyes remind me of Dark Lugiel from Ultraman Ginga, which makes me happy, since that was an amazing design.

Genm didn't get any proper DX release until Dangerous Zombie was released months into the shows run (with Dan's other 2 gashats both being campaign items), and even that was pretty memorably under-produced (I remember my HLJ pre-order being delayed and having to email HLJ bc it had been so long and them being like "bandai sent us waaaaaaay less than we expected, and are only drip feeding us new ones") until it got a rerelease later, so to me it feels like Bandai didn't see Genm as a big selling point or major enough character until later when Dan exploded in popularity. And Calibur's belt was released fully stand alone... And Calibur was just kind of weird all around in terms of the suit's use in the show itself So something about Buffa having pack-in items in a version of the base belt just feels different, makes me think he'll have a lot of extra focus... The items packed in with the "bigger" belt set are usually reserved for items that belong to the protagonist or a secondary rider, so I really do think it may be meaningful that Buffa got this position... The only real exception I can think of is Cheetah coming with the progrise holder set, and while she's not the secondary rider she is a very major character in the show for sure. Not to mention that Buffa is the largest silhouette on the poster and is right next to Geats seemingly implying a level of extra importance, or at the very least potentially an earlier appearance than other characters... (though admitedly Genm is in a very similar position in the Ex-Aid poster lol) Personally I'm still expecting him to be villainous based on his design, but it would be interesting if he's a very focussed on character right from the start of the show... Maybe he'll be the reigning champ of the game or something like that and be seen as a big obstacle by everyone participating? Though it would also be really fun if he's not a villain at all and he's just a well meaning guy who happens to have a terrifying looking Buckle Mostly I'm just curious why he's getting the toy spotlight over all the other riders... But who knows, the thought on Bandai's part might just be "let's toss in an extra rider to increase the value of the combo set and potentially increase sales numbers" and Buffa shows up early so they picked him, it could be that simple and mean nothing really Quote:

But I still just hope it's not exclusively a campaign item, I really don't want to pay hyper inflated prices for it, I've done that in the past and it's never fun Last edited by TheJaz; 08-02-2022 at 11:35 AM.. |

The Buffa in Kamen Rider Buffa comes from the word Buffalo.
