Coming soon! Crowdfunding special "KAMEN RIDER BLACK TV Power DX HENSHIN BELT Kingstone"
Hello everyone. This is Funasen, the CSM representative.
The "KAMEN RIDER BLACK TV Power DX HENSHIN BELT Kingstone", a reward for last year's crowdfunding of "KAMEN RIDER BLACK SUN", will be shipped soon.

Today we will be introducing a sample of this product!
①Product packaging
Comes in a plain shipping box (DVD included separately).
When you open the protective box and take out the product... you'll find a reproduction design that reproduces the product packaging of the time as closely as possible!

The samples of the original products stored in-house have had their printing faded over time, making it impossible to know the exact color tones. However, we asked the packaging design company that designed them 35 years ago to create them again.
(Actually, that company has been creating package designs for all Rider series from the Showa era to the Reiwa era.)
The result is something like this!
Regarding the main body, the specifications have been changed from the thin vinyl belt band of the time to the modern DX belt band that is compatible with the extension belt. As a result, the packaging specifications have been changed and the package size has become slightly larger, but we have reproduced the aspect ratio and atmosphere of the product at that time as much as possible.
*The central window has been removed and replaced with a pseudo-design using a photograph.
Here is a comparison with the original product (left: original product, right: new product).

And when you launch the giant folded header, it looks like this!

Inside, we have reproduced the atmosphere of the backing paper as much as possible, just like the original product!

In addition, an "extension belt (SILVER.ver.)" is attached to the bottom of the mount. This product alone can be worn by adults. (This is the first attempt since Buggle Driver 2)
*The extension belt is also available for purchase at PREMIUM BANDAI.

The product we took out was, in short, silver plated!!
It's difficult to take photos because of the inevitable reflections, but the fact that it's all plated gives it a Showa-era toy feel and is quite charming.
I guess V BUCKLE are the last of the Heisei era. Nowadays, the basic approach is to make things as close as possible to the props used in the movies, so products like this are becoming rare.

*Due to different packaging specifications than usual, the DX belt will be partially bent at first, but this will wear off, so please just play with it as is!
② A: Reprint mode and B: In-game mode
With the two-mode specification that is familiar to the CSM series, this is not just a reproduction but also increases its value.
This time, I will explain about B: In-game mode.
The newly added sounds in the movie are not limited to the transformation sounds in the movie.
It even includes an abbreviated transformation sound, complete with the sound effect of black leather gloves creaking!
What's more, it also features voice input functionality!
Starting with the distinctive jump sound, there is the Rider Punch sound, the Rider Kick sound, the Kingstone Flash sound effect, the Battle Hopper summoning sound, the Road Sector summoning sound...all of these sound effects are triggered by audio!

The reason why voice input play is so exciting is that "TV Power" has been revised to recognize "TV sound" rather than "TV blinking."
The basic specification of TV power is voice input.
③The power of television!
So, with the new TV power now being "sound" sensitive, you can now immerse yourself in NARIKIRI playing transformation games without worrying about the direction of the light on the TV screen.
It is equipped with a microphone, and when the microphone picks up the sound of the transformation in the movie, the sound is activated.
Therefore, we recommend that you first set the volume on your TV to a high level so that the built-in microphone will respond.
Also,
*The volume of the video when it reacts will change depending on the surrounding environment. In a quiet environment, adjust the video volume to a higher volume until it reacts again.
*The included DVD video is recommended.
*The timing of the reaction will vary depending on the video.
If the surrounding environment is prepared, the transformation reaction will be possible in episodes other than Episode 1, although this will depend on the video medium and equipment used.
Since different background music is played during the transformation in each episode, the time it takes for the "sound recognition" to react varies from episode to episode, with some reacting immediately and others reacting when the transformation is complete.
(Of course there are episodes where she doesn't transform, but there are also episodes where she doesn't transform even when the surrounding environment is correct.)
And this TV power function actually does more than just input from the TV.
This product is also designed to be linked to "that product"!!
↓That product.

That product is scheduled to be released in the future, but the timing and method of release have yet to be decided. Please wait a little longer.
That's all about BLACK.
Finally, an announcement!
The "CSM OOO DRIVER Complete Set ver.10th" was introduced in the 9th episode of "Premium Bandai Lab Z", which was streamed on YouTube last Thursday.
- Tajadol Combo Eternity transformation sound (some sound effects are temporary to avoid spoilers)
・You can listen to Goda's transformation sound.
The second part, which will be released the day after tomorrow, April 14th (Thursday) at 7pm, will continue to introduce OOO DRIVER, and you can hear some of the transformation sounds with a changed pitch in "Ancient OOO Mode," one of the highlights of Ver. 10th's new gimmicks.
In addition, there will also be information on new gimmicks being revealed for the first time! Don't miss it!
That's all for today's blog.
The next update will be on Monday, April 18th, not Tuesday.
I'm sure many of you can guess why it's Monday, but yes, that's it! Stay tuned!
See you next time!
