CSM HENSHIN BELT ARCLE Episode 8 Rotation

Hello everyone. This is Funasen.

Come to think of it, December has come around in the blink of an eye... December brings to mind Christmas!
Christmas is the most exciting season in the toy industry... Our company is also getting excited as the end of the month approaches...

…What I want to say is,

For a Christmas present, please give us ZIKU-DRIVER ZIKU-DRIVER!!

The super fun HENSHIN BELT, ZIKU-DRIVER, is now on sale at toy stores nationwide and is a big hit.
Thank you very much for your cooperation.



Now, for today's CSM blog, although the pre-order period has ended, we would like to give you some updates on ARCLE specifications.

As for the CSM HENSHIN BELT ARCLE, the program data was finally uploaded last weekend!
We are now entering the final stages of adjusting the molded parts in preparation for mass production, but as a result of further refining the specifications from what we mentioned in our previous blog, we have added the following gimmicks.

●Adjust the timing of motor rotation!
In the old Complete Selection, the motor continued to rotate until just after the transformation sound ended, which resulted in the motor rotation sound being very noticeable.
With this CSM, we have programmed it so that the motor only rotates until just before the "transformation completion sound," which is the last sound to be played during the transformation.
In terms of the sound of the Mighty Form transformation, it rotates up to "Shank shank shank shank shank shashasha" and stops rotating at the "Shakin" part. In the video, at the "Shakin" part, the body completely transforms into Kuuga, and ARCLE is visualised as a non-rotating prop, so that has also been reproduced.
By doing this, the motor will have already stopped by the time you hear the "shakin" part where the volume gradually decreases, so the rotation noise will not be unnoticeable.

● Equipped with a special mode in which the motor does not rotate!
On the other hand, I think there are some people who think that the "motor rotation sound" doesn't have the atmosphere of an ancient belt, and they value the worldview. (Looking around at the reviews of the old Concertos, it seems that there are many people like that.)
For that reason, we are including a special mode this time where the motor will not rotate while the transformation sound is playing, a mode that is entirely focused on the sound!
This mode is a "special mode" that is activated by pressing the transformation button while turning the power switch ON, as explained in a previous blog post (CSM HENSHIN BELT ARCLE EPISODE 4 Special).
And, originally in special mode,
"The Mighty Form transformation sound has been changed to the original version from the first season."
"At the transformation standby sound, an LED lights up in the color of each form."
These two gimmicks have been changed so that they can be activated by pressing and holding the color button to transform.
Therefore, it can be activated in either normal mode or special mode. (You can now activate either transformation sound without having to turn off the power each time.)

So, the difference between normal mode and special mode is the simple difference between whether the motor rotates or not!
I think it's easier to understand and play.

*By the way, D mode does not have a special mode in which the motor does not rotate. Due to a program issue, this could not be used here.
note that.

●The startup sound for normal mode is the same sound effect that Godai makes when he first puts on the belt in "EPISODE 1"!
When he was attacked by Zu-Gum-Ba and the petrified ARCLE was attached to his stomach, a "Queeeeeeeeeen" sound was heard and ARCLE was absorbed into his body. When you turn the power on, the sound will be heard and the LED will light up white.
This means you can play NARIKIRI playing from the very start.

●The sound of devolving from the rising form includes different sounds depending on whether it is "your own will" or "30 seconds have passed"!
In Episode 30, Rising Titan stabs Go-Gamego-Re with the Rising Titan Sword, and after 30 seconds has passed, thunder sounds and the centre ARCLE flashes yellow → purple → yellow → purple → yellow → purple, before devolving into its Titan form.
If the transformation occurs within the 30-second time limit, the above-mentioned production will be followed, and after 30 seconds have elapsed the above sound will be played and the LED will flash, and the character will return to its pre-rising form.
On the other hand, if the Rising ARCLE Armor is removed before 30 seconds have passed, it will be considered that the form change was of one's own volition, and the same sound as the Rising Form deactivation sound made after defeating Go-Zazal-Ba in Episode 39 will be recorded.
(At this time, it had changed from Rising Pegasus to Mighty Form, but due to the nature of the toy, it will change back to Pegasus Form. Thank you for your understanding.)

ARCLE was so relieved that I was able to upload the program safely over the weekend...
Now we will be working on the details in preparation for mass production. Thank you for your continued support.


That's all for today's blog.
The next update will be on Monday, December 17th.

See you next time!
