Aside from weapon drivers (Slashriser etc) I’m trying to remember the last time they sold a DX weapon at preban… all that comes to mind is Saver’s repaint of the Sonic Arrow

Kamen Rider Glare's buckle.

Looking at the suit design, I suspect we'll be seeing a Revolve Change figure that doesn't actually revolve. It looks like the gimmick would be that the chest (and maybe shoulderpads) can be removed and placed over a half-body's head in place of a Rider helmet. I can definitely see how So-Do will implement it, given that they already have two-part heads, as well. Whether it'd be retail or Premium Bandai, I couldn't guess.

I definitely think if we do get Glare he'll be Preban given Nago and Punkjack were. Nago/Punkjack signals to me the end of RCF at retail

Okay, so the vision driver is p-bandai, but gonna get a US release, so that's nice.

team rider are bringing over the ID core set! 40 dollars

[Tokumonkey]

Anyone else find it odd that the set that consists of broken cores omits Letta/Letter in favor of last year's Rider? Although it would also have been weird if they'd included either a broken or unbroken version without the other. They only did that with Buffa, and there's already been a DX unbroken Buffa released.

It's really weird to me that Letter specifically is omitted yeah. Are they just not planning to release her or do they have plans for her of all characters?

Bought this yesterday on Tokullectibles for 33 Bucks, not bad if I do say so myself.

Anything for my boy Ginpen (RIP).

Anyway, I'm assuming Letter was excluded because they wanted to keep the set a 9 Cores since she'd have two and they'd have to remove two of them. So removing just Revi's core wouldn't work cause then they'd have to remove Buffa's who just had his big moment.

My guess behind the Buffa and Revi cores being pushed instead are mostly in that they want to take advantage of timing. Getting Revi's core out sooner rather than later lets people complete their set with Vice's and I think people would be more inclined to buy Buffa's broken one sooner rather than later.

Not the best situation mind you but I doubt this is our last ID Core set. After all Michinaga's friend was feature prominently and likely could get a Core release, both broken and unbroken. There's also John and Ben who were revealed to be DGP Participants. So that's already like... six Cores that could be released easily for the next round and we'd only be missing 3 after that for 9. Not counting anyone else who shows up and dies or anyone we know in the main cast that dies.

Anyway I was mostly going to post that I bought it for Ginpen, but figured I'd try and share what I think is going on. Toei knows they have a money mine with these Cores, and I doubt they're the most expensive P Bandai thing to produce. I don't think they'll stop anytime soon.

The fact we are getting official CSM style straps for the Desire Driver makes me hope they do this for every Driver going forward, P-Bandai or not
