CSM Lockseed Kureshima Set Pre-orders start today! & Regarding painting of already released Lockseeds


Hello everyone. This is Funasen, the developer.


First, regarding SENGOKU DRIVER that have already been delivered, we have confirmed that there are paint quality defects in some of the mass-produced Lockseeds that come with the "CSM SENGOKU DRIVER".
We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience caused to customers whose products were affected by this or other defective products.

If you find a defect with the product you have received, please contact the BANDAI Customer Service Center listed on the product package.
For customers who have already contacted the consultation center regarding paint quality, we will be providing guidance starting today.
I kindly thank you.




From here on, we will introduce the products that are available for pre-order starting today.
"CSM Lockseed Kureshima Set"!



The types of Lockseeds in the Kureshima set were already announced in the "Helheim Forest" section of the "Gaim Festival" page, which has been public since October 25th of last year.
I think anyone who has found all the Lockseeds has noticed this.
This set includes all six Lockseeds used by Ryugen and Zangetsu to transform with their SENGOKU DRIVER!

Additionally, the faceplates were also listed in the dialogue list for the CSM SENGOKU DRIVER that has already been released, and while there are four faceplates available to unlock the voices of the two characters... the one that is completely new is the "Proto Ryugen Faceplate."

The Proto Series faceplates already included in the Charmon Set and Team Baron Set shared designs with riders appearing in Gaim Gaiden, but this time the faceplate is entirely dedicated to "Proto Ryugen" who appeared in the stage version of KAMEN RIDER Zangetsu.
You can enjoy NARIKIRI playing in the stage version by combining it with the Shin Kachidoki Lockseed.


The Shin Kachidoki Lockseed has the same design as the regular Kachidoki, but instead of being clear, it is painted entirely metallic green.

However, some parts such as the inner lid and hinges come into contact with the ground, so they will be left unpainted in their molded color to prevent the paint from peeling off.
(The appearance of the hinge part in the product image will probably be slightly different when molded in a different color.)
One drawback here is that if the main body is molded in metallic green, the LED light cannot be seen through it.
We are currently selecting the molding color for this part, looking at a "clear material base mixed with metallic," and we plan to use something that is metallic but also easily transmits light.
(Although the LED will be transparent, the light will be weaker than with a regular Kachidoki due to the inner lid.)

Unlike the regular Kachidoki, there are no special modes to differentiate it from the initial transformation sound, but all of the battle cries have been changed to Takatora's version.


There are clear changes between the Yomotsuheguri Lockseed and the DX version.

The LED will glow yellow-green, just like in the movie!
The CSM version of Lockseed has a separate sticker surface for the LED light-emitting part and the outline parts around it.
This is because in the movie, the outline parts were painted metallic, and I think anyone who has purchased a CSM SENGOKU DRIVER will understand this.
Thanks to this method of division, the outline parts of Yomotsuheguri are molded in a dark red color, and the sticker surface is clear green, which makes it possible to make the LED glow a yellow-green!
In the DX, this part is a single piece, so if you prioritize the red exterior, the light-emitting surface will also be clear red, and the green LED color cannot be beautifully transmitted. (The LED in the DX ended up being red.)

Yomotsuheguri also has an "in-movie transformation mode" which repeats "Hades World Yomi Yomi Yomi" twice!
In addition, the special move "Yomotsuheguri Squash" has three different sounds, just like in the movie! The sound changes depending on whether you perform the squash for the first, second, or third time.
(I wonder why they didn't give it to Ole Sparking in the movie...! The audio capacity is so low...)


While adding these power-ups, we will continue to develop the game so that it is as close to the story as possible.


And... if you've looked closely at the reservation page you'll have noticed, there's information about upcoming Lockseed sets...!
We plan to release three types of products in the future: "Gaim Set", "Yggdrasil Set", and "Helheim Set". (To be released at regular monthly intervals.)
The riders shown are only a part of the Contents. Please wait and guess the lineup from the product names.


Let me introduce one more product.
「HENSHIN SOUND CARD COMPLETE SET」



This card allows you to easily listen to the transformation sounds on your smartphone.
The full set is sold by PREMIUM BANDAI, and the cards are sold individually at the "KAMEN RIDER STORE" in Tokyo Station and other locations. (Each card costs 330 yen (tax included).)

 

The transformation sounds are great, but the card designs are just so cool!
The result is a very stylish card. I would recommend buying it just for the card itself.



The back of the doll has a serial number printed on it, and by entering it on your online account you will be able to hear the transformation sound.

 

The two recently announced a new work.



Kuuga is cool too! (I recommend Kuuga)
Please be sure to check it out.


Also, Toei is currently developing
"KAMEN RIDER 50th Anniversary Grand Anthology Festival"
This will provide a forum for rider fans to talk about their memories.
https://www.kamen-rider-official.com/50th_daisenshuu

The current deadline for the first theme, "Rider Memories" and "Rider Songs", is April 18th.
It makes me happy that so many people are interacting with the toys...!
There will also be some luxurious giveaways, so please send in your memories of KAMEN RIDER!


Finally, the third project, "Shin KAMEN RIDER ", was announced on April 3rd and I'm really looking forward to it...!!!
Although it has nothing to do with that "Shin," the origin of the "Shin" in the "Shin Kachidoki Lockseed" that is being sold this time is a play on the word "Shin" (true) from Zangetsu (not Genesis) and "sin" (sin).
In the stage version of KAMEN RIDER Zangetsu, in which this Lockseed appears, Takatora frequently speaks of "atoning for his sins."
The name of this Lockseed was chosen with consideration for the concept of the work.

That's all for today's blog. See you next week!
