Brave & Snipe both hit LVL 50, as Fantasy Gamer & Simulation Gamer!


there is also a NEW Rider, labeled 'Kamen Rider True Brave."

So... We will get a kit-bashing suit Rider this early!? I don't know but I feel that Ex-Aid really knows how to save the budget here. I love Taddle Fantasy Gamer more than Bang2 Simulation, especially the Demushu and Lord Baron's vibe in it. IMO, I even prefer Jet Combat more than this bulky form for Snipe. The form is like bashing any parts of ship's scavenge and plastered a nice hat on Snipe's forehead.

Night of Safari's design was definitely unexpected. I like it though. True Brave was the most unnecessary rider. The other forms are pretty cool.

[Dormamu]

Cannot like these designs enough. When I first saw Ex-Aid, I just didn't get it. The helmet really threw me off. But every iteration has been better and better.

[Switchblade]

And this show continues to have the worst suits ever. Hooray for consistency.

[Helios]

Parad and Kuroto seem to have a conflict leading to fight each other. Maybe Parad will join the good side.


Here's a picture from the Cho Super Hero Taisen. It's an all out war. We have Sentai vs Sentai and Rider vs Rider.

I take it you never saw Genm.


Anyway, as I said in the discussion thread. I actually like Simulations and aren't that into Fantasy, which is the opposite of what I was expecting.

True Brave looks cool. If Brave had his armor it'd be way better.

Safari Gamer is ok. Burger Gamer is funny. I wonder what Tank Gamer will be a retool of.

Who's betting True Brave'll be a two-episode villain, then killed off?

No toys + recolour = Not important.

We have no idea if he has toys. We don't have the full third quarter catalog yet.

I mean, by that logic Genm wasn't important, least for a while there. He too was a recolor, and didn't have any toys (beyond Shakariki Sports) until November.

True Brave's Gashat looks really intricate, which makes me think it could actually come out as a toy. If it was just a throwaway for the show there's no reason to not just use a standard Gashat.

There's also the fact that he's not a straight recolor but an intricate retool. The undersuit is different, and while the armor looks similar, the only parts that are actually the same as Brave's appear to be the shoulders. Chest and helmet are different.

To me it all just seems a little much for a standard issue kitbash Rider, so I am expecting a little more. We'll see though.

The chest isn't different, just repainted, and the suit is just Brave's repainted, with a longcoat and tassle added.
Also Genm had a vinyl figure and an LVUR figure, not to mention the Bugvisor, and a unique name.
He wasn't 'Dark Ex-Aid', or 'Proto-Ex-Aid'. Knuckle looked a lot like Gridon, and was just Kurokage with a new helmet and arms, but he wasn't 'New Gridon'. This dude is literally 'True Brave'. And his 'intricate Gashat' is just White Taddle Quest with Blood Orange Lockseed-like swirls on it. I fully expect it to be released somehow, but I can't see any way that he'll be an important character.
Of course, his suit is beautiful - I hope he is, I just can't see it. He'll likely be a two - six episode villain for Hiiro's character arc, and then offed unceremoniously.
