That is where the actor sees through, maybe it's an homage to that?

Could someone do size comparison pics between Sodo and Figure-rise?

I think it's just the slight bevel of the edge the eyes that's creating a reflection that makes it look like a gap. To me it looks like the eyes go all the way to the middle.

Oh, and while I'm here taking pictures; I decided to do a little Zi-O and Ex-Aid belt swap to see how well the Decadriver might work on them! So here's Emu Hojou; the King of Time and Sougo Tokiwa, who 100% plays minecraft!




It... -kind of- works. See, the method the belts attach is the same on both figures... but the size of the holes and allowances they have are very different. So while I could put the Zikku Driver into Ex-Aid just fine, the Gamer Driver was refusing to go into Zi-O and I had to force it between his joints and rely on friction.

It's... kind of annoying that it's this way? It makes Decadriver prospects a lot less promising, and I'm not sure why they didn't just make the insides and attachments of the belts the same mold.

I've never understood why there isn't a line of belt swap figures for Decade. Even back when Decade was airing, the gimmick line of figures had the Riders changing into their "final form rides" instead of utilizing the belt swap gimmick.

My guess is that it would just have been very boring as a main feature. As a little extra thing you could do, sure, but "Den-O can have a slightly different belt swapped onto him" isn't nearly as eye-grabbing as "Den-O can transform into Momotaros!"

In lines like this though, it just makes sense to me to have the belts all generally be the same so the Decadriver can be slotted on as an extra feature. SHFs have allowances for it, at least.

I agree that as a transforming gimmick it would have been a bit boring, but man it sure would have made for better figures. Those transforming Decade figures are downright fugly.

Yeaaah, there's a reason I singled out Den-O... because he's the only one that actually looks decent and has a worthwhile transformation gimmick. All the others look awful and honestly invite some bizarre body horror

Thanks! I’ll probably be getting Ex Aid at some point. Even if these don’t quite fit in with Sodo I might be able to have an Avengers x Kamen Rider using my Marvel Legends.
