Hello everyone. I'm Funasen, the CSM developer.

Pre-orders for "CSM DEN-O BELT MOVIE EDITION" will start today at 11am!



This concludes the CSM Den-O series!!!
It was quite difficult to get the opportunity to commercialize the MOVIE EDITION on its own, and four years have passed since the release of DEN-O BELT, but we have finally been able to release it this time, releasing it simultaneously with the Zeronos Belt and advertising it as the "final chapter of the CSM Den-O series."
Most of HENSHIN BELT are enemy riders', which is rare even for CSM, so I think this is an item for core fans, but since the Wing Form can only be transformed with this belt, if you have the CSM DEN-O BELT, you should definitely get this one as well and become Ryotaro.
This is the only toy that allows you to enjoy the world's most beautiful transformation standby sound (in the author's opinion) in high quality!!!

In terms of specs, it inherits the gimmicks from the CSM DEN-O BELT, but the details have been overwritten with current CSM manufacturing methods, such as lengthening the duration that the LED stays lit and eliminating the blinking that accompanies the dialogue.

"CSM DEN-O BELT & Keitaros" was a turning point for CSM, and it built the foundation for the current concept of "reproducing the scenes in the movie to the fullest extent possible, including many long BGM tracks, and a large volume of dialogue." Looking back on it now, four years later, I felt that there were still parts that were reminiscent of DX toys when I played with it again. (Like the glow mentioned above.)
We eliminated those issues and created the current CSM. We couldn't have increased the number of BGM tracks to this extent 4 years ago.

In fact, Miki's lines for Zeke were recorded four years ago when DEN-O BELT was being recorded, with this product in mind.
Only a few lines from that scene were recorded in Cataros for the Super Climax Form.
This is the first time that the main lines will finally see the light of day.

In addition, although there weren't that many lines in the movie, lines from Ghost Imagin are also included.
Consistently throughout the CSM Den-O series, the lines of each rider's possessed Imagin have been recorded for all characters.
Meanwhile, in the Den-O series, the Zeronos Belt is the first to feature the voice of the transformed character, Yuto, and this belt also features the voice of Watanabe Hiroyuki, who plays Gaoh.
Since the original product was a Wing & Gaoh belt, Gaoh is the real thing with no spirit possessed, but considering the importance of the character we decided to include his own voice.
(Most of Shiro's lines after transformation are unrelated to combat, so they are not included this time.)


Another highlight this time is the "Fuutarou" rider ticket!

Expanding on the "MOVIE EDITION," the Futaros Rider Ticket from the movie "KAMEN RIDER Heisei Generations FOREVER" has been surprisingly released as a first-time product!
In the past, a Den-O Rider Ticket product was released in a size that was compatible with CSM passes, called the" MASKED RIDER DEN-O Den-O Rider Ticket 10th Packed Collection," but due to the timing of its release it wasn't possible to include Fuutarou.
We thought that this would be the only opportunity to commercialize it, so we decided to include it in the package.


There's a lot more information to share today, so I'll talk more about CSM next week.

Next up is a product commemorating the release of the Toei special effects Fan Club exclusive "KAMEN RIDER Blades x Specter," which was released the day before yesterday.
About "DX Specter Raging War Chronicles Wonder Ride Book + Canon Specter & Friendship Burst Ghost Icon".



As this is a new item, we have started taking pre-orders for a set that includes it from yesterday.
Kanon-chan has finally transformed into a rider! Kudo-san, this is amazing, she's shining brightly!!

Also, the molding color of the Specter Raging War Chronicles Wonder Ride Book listed on the reservation page was incorrect, so it has been corrected.

And here is another product that we are finally able to send out!!! We are truly sorry to have kept you waiting!!!
"Friendship Burst Ghost Icon"!! Finally available as a DX toy!

Due to various circumstances, this product was not commercialized at the time of the V-Cinema release, but with this latest production we have been able to commercialize it by including it in a set with Kanon!
We've kept you waiting for this for just as long as we did for the MOVIE EDITION, about four years.

There also seems to have been a slight mistake in the transformation sound on the pre-order page, as the correct sound is "We 're burst! Friendship fight! We'll put a stop to your sins!" (pronounced "Fa-ite!").
As expected, we will not be commercializing the 100 Great People icons that were selected through a public competition for the summer movie, but this completes the "DX Ghost Icon" release, including the new Canon!
So, to all collectors, we hope you will enjoy this product.

We received several requests yesterday for GHOST DRIVER and Mega Ulorder to be re-released, but it is difficult to secure our capacity while producing a variety of products, and on top of that, sales of ZIKU-DRIVER and Decade Ride Watch that were re-released in conjunction with "Zi-O vs. Decade" were quite low...so we have concluded that, of course, most people who have continued to want the Friendship Burst up to this point already have them to begin with, and so we will not be re-releasing them.


Now...there are quite a few KAMEN RIDER products that have not been released as DX products.
Many of these items appeared mainly in the V-cinema after the show ended, but if the Friendship Burst merchandise has a solid sales record, it will be possible to commercialize unmerchandised items from other works in the future.
So if you have GHOST DRIVER or Mega Ulorder, we recommend you check out this product!
(There is also an example of the sales figures for ZIKU-DRIVER above... so be sure to check it out.)

However, even if the response is positive, not all works will be immediately commercialized.
The development period will be considerable, and there will be competition for production capacity with current products, so it is likely that each work will be released at an appropriate time.
Of course, it would be ideal if all of the products could be commercialized in real time when the work was released, but the fact that we have been able to continue releasing most of the DX items in real time is quite a power play.
The trend is particularly evident in the release of figurines in later years.


Finally, the reservation deadline is tomorrow, June 30th,
Introducing the packaging for "DX Enei Sword Roen" and "DX Jikoku Sword Kaiji"!

First Surface



And the back side!



If you look closely... they're connected side-by-side! The packaging gives off a sibling vibe!

And if you connect them vertically!



It is also subtly connected vertically (the Rider letters continue), creating two different connection patterns!
The deadline is tomorrow. We look forward to your final reservation.

That's all for today's blog. The next update will be on Tuesday, July 6th.

Well then!
