"PREMIUM DX Memorial Alchemist Driver Unit"

Introducing our product samples!


This set includes four items in a generous portion.

Please be sure to read to the end, and we hope you will find this helpful for future reservations and tips on how to play!

 

Let's start with Memorial Nijigon!

As shown on this reservation page, not only Hōtarō but alsoThe game also includes a wide variety of character voices for Nijigon.I will.

Speaking of Nijigon's voice, as you can see from the table in this instruction manual, there was a rich selection of voice lines even in the DX version.

In the DX version, there were a lot of lines that sounded like cries, such as "Gon!" and "Gongon!", but this time, the most notable thing isMemorial Edition!

In other wordsYou can reminisce about what happened in the play.To make it a version like that,Includes a wealth of dialogue from the play.We are doing so.

 

To give one example...

 

Nijigon: "Houtarou! I've been searching for something I can do all this time. And I've finally found it. I'll cheer you on! Even Nijigon can cheer someone on!"

 

Hōtarō: "Support...! Is that Nijigon's Gatcha?!"

 

Yes, that's a line from episode 41, "Nijigon Runs Away from Home."

Nijigon's lines were memorable, especially in his conversation with Hōtarō.

Also, speaking of the "beginning" of that conversation with Hōtarō...

 

Hōtarō: "Tamagon... I really want to go back. Everyone is fighting in my place."

Tamagon: "But that doesn't mean you have to fight. You can just stay here with me."

 

That's right, it includes not only lines from Nijigon, but also from Tamagon, or rather, from the blue egg before Nijigon hatches!

 

As such, we plan to include plenty of lines and dialogue from Hōtarō, Nijigon, and Tamagon.

This collection is filled with memorable lines, carefully selected after thoroughly rewatching every episode of the main series, Gatchard!

Please look forward to the arrival of the other lines as well!

Next up is this! The sound effects for summoning the GOTCHAR Brothers have been improved!

First, we'll play a summoning game using the two cards that were used in the show.

If you play a sound effect afterward, the sound effect corresponding to those two cards will play correctly!


For example, if you play a summoning game with Rainbow Pirates or Mad Wheel and then play a sound effect...

"Thud, thud, thud! (Sound of hitting Kamedon Margam)"

As the name suggests, it makes a sound like you're hitting Kamedon Margam three times with the right arm and throwing it away.

 

The way the sound effects change depending on the card inserted might remind you of the wrench mode in Memorial GOTCHAR Igniter.

Each form produces a unique and distinctive sound, NARIKIRI-playing even more enjoyable!

Once you receive the cards, please enjoy playing with all sorts of GOTCHAR Brothers summoning games using different cards.

 

And as stated on the reservation page...


Rainbow Pirates

Rainbow Mud Wheel

Rainbow Deep Mariner

Rainbow Venom Mushroom

 

This product comes as a set of these four items!

"RIDE CHEMY TRADING CARD Extra Gacha Set & Gacha File"

teethNow accepting reservations!is!

Please make your reservation early before you forget!

This product is even more enjoyable when played with together with Memorial Nijigon.

Please check this out as well!

And next up is this: The stickers are no longer transparent!

This is what they look like when you actually place the Memorial Edition and the DX Edition side-by-side and take a picture of them.

As you can see, the rainbow design on the sticker is clearly visible.

In the DX version, it was made transparent to allow the light from the GOTCHARDRIVER to shine through.

That approach was a beautiful one for a DX toy, both in terms of how it looked in its combined state, but this time, as a memorial product that focuses on recreating the scene from the show,Non-transparent to match the props used in the film.I am doing it this way.

 

Incidentally, the clear parts of the action props are painted silver, but the props with the unfolding gimmick are not painted, so we've matched that.

(If you paint it, there is a possibility that the paint may peel off due to interference when closing the clear part.)

 

Furthermore, in transformation scenes and scenes where the GOTCHAR Brothers are summoned, the props often shown have unfolding gimmicks and therefore lack silver paint, so you should be able to play with it without any sense of incongruity!

 

So, the Memorial Nijigon has been significantly upgraded in both appearance and sound specifications.

We would be delighted if you could make a reservation!

Now, next up is this!

"PREMIUM DX RIDE CHEMY TRADING CARD Legend Rider Set"

The second set of plastic card sets is here!

45Set of 1!

This one's packed with content too!

And what a strange thing I've never seen before,New design cardbut3One is included!

 

The Gatchard has a design that seems to be based on the Steamliner and Hopper 1.

Gav has a gummy, squishy design.

Zets' design is reminiscent of the flipbook animation inside the capsule.

 

They all have been given a unique twist, typical of Legend Rider RIDE CHEMY TRADING CARD cards.


"But if these three are made of plastic, it would disrupt the sense of unity since I've been collecting paper ones up until now..."

Are you worried about this?

Wow! These three new cards are not just made of plastic.A paper card is also included!

This is included for all of you who have been collecting the paper cards since the show first aired.

It might be a good idea to use the paper ones for collecting and the plastic ones for playing with by loading them into the GOTCHARDRIVER.


And when it comes to loading it into the GOTCHARDRIVER, it's this one!

Gav and Zets have new barcodes!

 

This will produce an error sound when inserted into existing toys such as the DX GOTCHARDRIVER.

However,A special sound will only play when inserted into the Memorial GOTCHARDRIVER!

 

"Gav!""Zets!""Gatchanko!"

"Poppingimpact♬♬♬ (Transformation sound)

 

Gorgeous!

Yes, the generic voice and transformation sound "Kamen Rider!"isn't itThat's right!

 

For this purpose, we will be recording new voice lines from Katsuyuki Konishi, who is in charge of the system voice for the GOTCHARDRIVER!

 

This involves internal and external stakeholders.

A: "Since we're going to make the Legend Riders into plastic card sets, we want to make them even more fun to play with."

B: "In Gutchard's novel, there's a story called 'Popping Impact'..."

C: "Gotcha! That's it!"

This new audio was created from that exchange.

 

How will the new form known as Popping Impact appear in the novel...?

You should definitely read the novel to find out!

and…

To those who have reserved the Memorial GOTCHARDRIVER!

We highly recommend pre-ordering this Legend Rider Card Set as well!

 

And conversely, for those who have pre-ordered this card set!

Why not try the Memorial GOTCHARDRIVER as well?

 

I would really appreciate it!

Well, there's still more to come!

NextThis Sunday! Reservations close on May 17th (Sun).A memorial GOTCHARDRIVER!

Here is some additional information.

From the information listed on the reservation page regarding "Kemie's voice call"Improved for easier gameplayWe are doing so.

To be more specific, we have made the following improvements.

① Reservation page stage

"All the chemicals are different, about 110 types in total."

 

② Current time

"With two Gatchan Kokemi as a fixed pair, there are approximately 55 species = a total of approximately 110 species."

 

To explain in more detail...

In case ①, there are quite a lot of options, about 110 different types, and you'll have to mash the button more than 100 times to get to the chemy you want to play.

Moreover, after triggering one voice, you had to repeatedly press the button to trigger another voice call from Chemie.

 

However, the combination of two Chemies you want to use is basically fixed.

(For example, after calling "Hopper 1!", you would basically only call "Steamliner!")


Therefore, by pressing the button just once

"Hopper 1! Steamliner!"

Since it's easier to play if both Hōtarō's voices play, we've incorporated the above improvements.

 

The voice of Chemy to be recorded“Number of Chemistry Types”Regarding that, there are still approximately 110 types.

ThereforeThe volume remains the same, but the ease of play has been improved!So, I hope you'll look forward to it.

Next up is Hopper, a new form that transforms using sushi."Sushi Hopper"Here's an update on the matter.

 

This has already been revealed in a video featuring Mr. Honjima, who plays Hōtarō, and Mr. Fujibayashi, who plays Spanner,

(If you haven't seen it yet, please check the link at the end of this article.)

The transformation sound is the same for both the DX and Memorial versions.

(The audio for these two cards was already included in the DX version.)

 

But guess what, this time!

The special move sounds in the Memorial Edition will be upgraded from those in the DX Edition!

We are planning to include voices and words that will give you an even stronger "sushi feel," so please look forward to it!

This also features new voice lines provided by Katsuyuki Konishi, who is in charge of system voices.


The hint is"The protagonist unleashes a special move" = "The enemy's role is over" = "It ends with sushi"What do you mean by that...?

We hope you'll enjoy anticipating and looking forward to it.


And now for our final topic!

It's finally scheduled to ship this month!

"PREMIUM DX Memorial Alchemist Driver Unit"Here are some product samples.

 

Let's start with the package design!





In keeping with the design of the Memorial Gatcha Igniter, this one is also finished in the same cool style.

And here is the main unit.

Actually, we've been making improvements to the product in various places since the time of the photo on the reservation page, in order to make it closer to the prop used in the film.

What kind of improvements are we talking about...?

You'll notice quite a few differences when you compare it to the DX version, but here's the first difference!


① Make the clear molded color a darker shade.

There are several types of props used in the film, but all of them had a darker color than the DX version, so we changed the molded color.


And here's a point that's even easier to see when you zoom in.

② The orange paint color has also been changed!

The orange line's color has also been changed to match the prop used in the film.

 

And, as stated on the pre-order page, the parts that were molded in white in the DX version will now have pearl white paint added.

Not only has the texture improved, but I think the details and contours of the design are now much clearer.

Therefore, the pearl white paint added to the High Alchemist Ring also accentuates the contours and details of the sculpt.

And we've also made adjustments to the luminescence!

Here it is!

As you can see, the orange light during the transformation standby sound and special attack standby sound is now brighter.

Let me explain this step by step.

First, take a look at how the DX version lights up.

On the right, you can see a single, line-like blue light in the middle of the blue glowing object.

And the clear parts also glow overall.

(For convenience, we'll call this "stronger luminescence.")


In contrast, the orange light on the left does not have a line of light in the middle.

The clear parts appear to be illuminated only in the center, rather than the entire surface glowing.

(We will also name this "weak luminescence.")


This is a clever design that uses two types of LEDs, one in the front and one in the back, allowing you to light up only one, both simultaneously, or switch between them.

This design allowed for variations in not only the color but also the intensity of the light as it switched between orange and blue, creating a mystical and enchanting glow.


And here is the memorial edition.

Both the orange and blue lights have been changed to a "stronger glow".

That's because, judging from how the lights appeared in the film, both colors were shining quite brightly.


The DX version had a mystical and very impressive way of lighting up, but this Memorial version prioritizes recreating the scene from the movie, so both versions have a "stronger glow."

If you own the DX version, you might find it interesting to compare them and see the differences.


And it's not just the appearance and lighting; there are tons of upgrades in terms of sound too!

To give you a sneak peek, we're even sending it out before shipping!We have already uploaded the web- electronic manual starting today!

Please check out the link at the end of this article!


Now, the most noteworthy point in that instruction manual is this one highlighted in red.

"Illegal transformation play"????

I think almost everyone, or rather, everyone, is wondering about this, so let me explain...

 

Rinne Mode has two branching paths: a normal state and a special state.

In that special state, they play by transforming into Gaia Dragon."Illegal Transformation Play"That's what we've named it.

 

Why is it "illegal"?

That happens when you load "Dragonaros" / "Gaiaard" in the special state of Rinne Mode."Illegal"This stems from the fact that a new voice will be activated.

The English word "illegal" means "unlawful" or "unjust."

To put it simply"Not appropriate"Is that what you mean?

 

In the novel version of Gatchard, he never used the berserk Reverse Rare card to transform, but if he were to use it, it would be a kind of"Not appropriate"This will be a transformation.

With that meaning in mind"Illegal"This new audio recording includes the following:

 

Furthermore"Transformation standby sound B' (dash)"A brand new transformation standby sound is also included!

The DX version's transformation standby sound that plays after inserting two cards has been rearranged into a new, lower-pitched, and more eerie-sounding voice.

 

So, what kind of sound will the transformation make?

"Noise" → "Force of the World" → "Gaia Dragon"!!

 

You won't know exactly what the sound is like until you receive it, but it's based on the DX version of the Gaia Dragon transformation sound, but with a low, noisy tone.

And since the transformation sound starts with a noise, it also gives you the feeling of "Huh? Something's different!"

And the special moves also feature plenty of new voice lines!

Not "Alchemislink" or "High Alchemislink"...

"IllegalAlchemy LinkIllegalA new system voice called "High Alchemy Link" has been activated!

 

Furthermore, the game includes two new songs, "A' (Dash)" and "B' (Dash)," as special move standby sounds.

Both are audio tracks based on the DX version's audio, but arranged with a lower pitch.

And the special move sound itself"surge"New voice clips are available!

This is"Emotional surge," "Sudden voltage increase"This is an English word with a meaning like that.

 

As those who have read the novel will know, these words perfectly match the descriptions of Rinne, Gaiard, and Dragonaros within the story.

 

In this wayTV seriesEven in the novel, the two cards were "not used for transformation," but the transformation standby sound, transformation sound, special move standby sound, and special move sound have been upgraded with new audio.We've made it incredibly fun to play with!

 

SimilarlyMemorial GOTCHARDRIVER,Memorial Rainbow,Legend Rider Card SetWe are currently working hard on development to bring joy to all Gatchard fans!

 

We would be delighted if you could make a reservation together at this time!

Thank you very much!
