KAMEN RIDER ZERO-ONE

MASKED RIDER KIVA

DX ZAIHA SOUTHERN DRIVER to be released tomorrow! & new KIVAT BELT specifications!


Hello everyone, this is Funasen in China.

In our final update of the year, we'll be introducing Zero One items!
It was lifted yesterday but...
Tomorrow, December 28th (Sat), HENSHIN BELT "DX Zaiah Southern Driver" of "Souther," the sixth KAMEN RIDER from "KAMEN RIDER ZERO-ONE," will be released in toy stores nationwide!


Product Information here


The president of ZAIA Enterprise Japan, Amatsu Gai, transforms into Zero One's rival rider.
Zero One = 01, while 1000 = Thousand = Souther, so it's a perfect name for the guy who has been making headlines with his 1000% statement!

The design is also different from Ames and Metboujinrai, with a sleek look more similar to Zero One.
As the difference in numbers indicates, this has the potential to be a powerful enemy...

This is a new HENSHIN BELT can be used with two keys: a new type of Progrise Key, the Amazing Caucasus, and a new type of Zetsumerise Key, the Awakening Arsino.
Although there will be no sound from Arshino, Amazing Caucasus can be attached to HENSHIN BELT that have been released so far.
Conversely, previously released Progrise Keys can also be set into this Zaia Southern Driver to activate special moves.

It will be released ahead of its broadcast on Sunday, January 5th next year, but the sound of the transformation of this belt is....insanely cool.
It's really cool, and most importantly, it's new. It reminds me of a cool commercial...
It's so cool that it makes you laugh.
Please get your hands on one of the many more details, and we hope you enjoy wearing this belt over the New Year holidays!


Additionally, Souther's weapon, the "DX Thousand Jacker", will also be released at the same time!


Product Information here

It is a lance-type weapon, and pulling the grip end unleashes a deadly sequence.
By setting the Progrise Key, you can also perform other special moves.
After the special move is completed, the company name "ZAIA Enterprise" is announced, making it a very assertive item.


Also from the RKF series will be "RKF KAMEN RIDER Souther," and from the soft vinyl series will be "Rider Hero Series 08 KAMEN RIDER Souther."


There are so many horns on his face.
It exudes a sense of strength. Let it face off against your Zero One!



Now, let's take a look at the deeper specifications of the "CSM KIVAT BELT" and "CSM Tatsurot"!


① Kivat's voice changes depending on whether he's in the "pre-transformed state," "post-transformed state with the buckle attached," or "post-transformed state with the buckle removed"!
Unlike the DX version, Kivat maintains its "transformed state" even when removed from the Kivat buckle, allowing you to play with it by having it move and attack on its own, just like in the movie.
Accordingly, in order to distinguish between the three states in the title, the dialogue that plays for each has been changed.
After transforming, all he says are battle lines.

② Of course, it also includes the “transformation cancellation sound”!
The now-standard "transformation cancellation sound" is included. The transformation is canceled by removing the Kivat and pressing the buttons on both ears at the same time.

3. The special moves are reproduced exactly as they are in the movie, including the sound!
On KIVAT BELT, the sounds of Wake Up Whistle's "Darkness Moon Break," as well as "Garuru Bite," "Basher Bite," and "Doggabaite" are perfectly reproduced from the movie.
If you load the "Wake Up Whistle (Zanbat ver.)" that comes with the Tatsurot, the sound of the Zanbat Sword's special move will play, so it's fun to imagine yourself holding the Air Zanbat Sword (!?) and playing with the special moves.
Furthermore, by using the gimmick explained in ①, after loading "Wake Up Whistle", you will be able to remove Kivat while playing "Darkness Moonbreak"!
And, it is also possible to recreate the scene where Kivat loads the "Wake Up Whistle" while flying, which was only done once in the movie! (This is limited to the Wake Up Whistle only, though.)

In addition, the Tatsurot version includes various fever special move sounds, which also reproduce the sounds from the movie.
The legendary "Basher Fever" sound has also been newly created and recorded!
What's more, if you perform "Wake Up Fever" while in "Dogabaki Emperor Form", the line "Dogabaki Emperor Break!" will be heard from Kivat via wireless communication while the special move sound will be activated from Tatsurot.

4. A shortened version of the BGM "Wake Up" is also included!
"Wake Up," the memorable music that plays during special moves, is included in two different lengths.
Since the lengths of the special move sounds for the four forms are different, we have prepared two versions in the appropriate sizes for each.
The BGM standby function that plays when using special moves, which we introduced last week, comes in very handy!

⑤ When the "Kiva Form" transformation sound is playing, place Tatsurot on the bracelet base and it will transform directly into "Emperor Form" via wireless communication!
Later in the film, Kivat Tatsurot spontaneously attaches itself to the belt and bracelets, allowing him to transform directly into Emperor Form.
This time, it has been recreated using wireless communication technology.
Attach Kivat to the Kiva Buckle and while the transformation sound is playing, attach Tatsurot to the pedestal.
Then, the "Kiva Form" transformation sound and the "Emperor Form direct transformation sound" will play simultaneously, and Tatsurot will radio a signal saying "He has entered Emperor Form," and the LEDs in Kivat's eyes will light up in a multi-colored gradient!
The Emperor Form can be recreated as a prop using the interchangeable eye parts, but if you leave the eye parts clear, you can also recreate the look with the gradient lighting of the LEDs.



etc.
I've introduced a lot of things, but this is actually not everything. I'll introduce them next time.
I can confidently recommend this as it's a really fun and amazing toy!
We hope you will experience the excitement that comes from combining these two products!
We look forward to your reservation.

This week was a hellish schedule, with us making final adjustments before mass production in China and debugging the sound and light programs that we had been working on until the very last minute.
We will continue to make adjustments to ensure the best possible outcome.



Finally, here's an announcement from PREMIUM BANDAI.
KAMEN RIDER ZERO-ONE 's "DX Zetsumerise Key Set 2" is now available for preorder!


All Zetsumerise Keys that have already been released will now be made into DX versions.
Of course, the cracked key parts are included this time as well, expanding the depth of play when combined with the DX Zetsumerizer.
Delivery is scheduled for May, six months from now, so if you want to enjoy playing Magia as soon as possible, we recommend you pick up a "Sound Progrise Key", which is available as a candy toy or Gashapon.

That's all for today's blog.
The next update will be after the New Year, on Monday, January 6th.

Thank you for playing with our toys this year.
Well, everyone, have a happy new year!
