Hello everyone. I am in charge of KAMEN RIDER toy development.





Today, July 28th (Monday) from 12:00​
"PREMIUM DX Memorial Doomsgeats Raise Buckle"
"PREMIUM DX Memorial Powered Builder Buckle & Gigant Buckle Set"

Reservations are now being accepted!

As of the time this blog is posted, we are already accepting pre-orders!

Now, speaking of Geets products…
 
We are currently accepting pre-orders for these two products, and both have been very well received, so thank you very much!
Thanks to you, we are now able to memorialize even the Dooms Powered Buckle.

The Dooms Powered figure also has great play value, rivaling the Raging Sword and Command Buckle.
First, for an overview of the product, please check out the reservation page and BANDAI official YouTube channel "Banmani!"

In this blog, we will introduce some of the finer details that could not be covered in those two media outlets.
1. Dazzling gold paint

​Most of the parts that were molded in color on the DX version are now painted gold!
The sense of luxury is incredible!

I think that this has been conveyed sufficiently on the reservation page and the van manifold, so instead I will devote some time to explaining what areas have not been painted and why.

For example, this photo shows the handle of the buckle on the left.
The area surrounded by the red frame is not painted.


This is because the handle needs to be folded when combining the two buckles.
This is because there is a risk of the paint getting scraped off when it rubs against it.

There are other areas where paint was avoided, but by deliberately leaving key areas unpainted like this, you can enjoy playing with the transformation figures without worrying about the paint peeling off!

The original DX molding color had a nice glossy finish that made it hard to believe it was a molding color.
Therefore, we have used the same molding color for this memorial model.

As a result, the molded color and painted color blend together to a degree that you wouldn't notice unless someone pointed it out.
You can look forward to the great looks!

2. A wide variety of voices

The various recorded sounds are listed on the reservation page, but we will introduce the details to you now.

1. Finger snapping sound
At the beginning of the movie, when he transformed for the first time in front of Buffa Tycoon Nago, the sound was a little low. On the other hand, at the end of the movie, when he transformed in front of Buffa on the bridge, the sound was a little high. Both of these will be recorded.

② Loading sound
The system voice was different for the first and second transformations. Only the second transformation had the "IGNITION" sound inserted, just like Boost Mark IX, so we've recorded two versions.

③The sound of destroying a dam by waving a hand / The sound of shooting a light bullet at Geets IX
Both recordings will include sounds believed to have been made by Geets IX.

To be more specific:
Dooms: Wave your hand and the dam will be destroyed.
Geets IX: Hold your hand over the dam to repair it. This sound is also included in the recording.

- Dooms: Fires light bullets from his hands
Geets IX: Creates a platform in the air and evades while running-- this sound is also included in the recording

The reason is that these two, especially the sound of waving a hand to destroy the dam, would likely be incomprehensible unless the audio from Geets IX was also included.
Each scene has a sequential flow, so we have included a wealth of content to allow you to relive the scene.

④ Special move sound
Two versions will be included: one with and one without the shouts of Hidetoshi from the future, such as "Haa!" The special move sounds with shouts were also well received for the Memorial Boost Mark IX and Memorial Bujin Sword Buckle, so we will continue that trend and include both!

This is how we deliver the audio with a considerable volume!

3. The loading sound for Boost Form Mark III will no longer be heard.



The buckle that does not make a sound has a different detection part.
This is commonly perceived as "the driver just lights up and makes no sound."​

This change has resolved the issue that sometimes occurred while playing the transformation game, where the loading sound for Boost Form Mark III could be heard depending on the loading timing!

So, if you want to play with the Boost Form Mark III with Doom's Buckle, you can continue to use the DX, and if you want to play without hearing the Mark III sound at all, you can use the Memorial!



Next, we will introduce the Memorial Powered Buckle.

1. Finally compatible with Beat Axe Raise Buckles!


You may be thinking, "No, I don't have a Beat Axe Buckle!"
rest assured!
There is a way to play even if you don't have it.
If you press the bottom button and load any small buckle (other than a weapon buckle), you will hear the loading sound for the beat axe.
You can play even if you don't have a Beat Axe Buckle!
It may seem like a silly thing to say, but I wanted as many people as possible to listen to the newly recorded audio for Beat Axe, so I announced it in advance.

As those of you who own a DX may know, the powered buckle recognizes the weapon buckle by pressing/not pressing three detection pins, as shown in the photo.

*The photo is DX.

And unlike normal small buckles, the weapon buckle has a hole in the area circled in red in the photo.


However, the Beat Axe buckle had no holes, meaning it had the same shape as conventional small buckles (hammers, etc.).
So, whether it was the beat axe buckle, hammer buckle, or water buckle, they all had the loading sound of "GIGANT ARMS."

Although the number of detection pins in this Memorial model has not increased from three, if you load the gun while pressing the bottom button, it will branch off into a "GIGANT AXE" and a different sound will be emitted.

This was an introduction to some new recordings that we hope you will enjoy, whether you own a Beat Axe Buckle or not.

2. Great sound volume for fun!


To begin with, the Powered Buckle was a product with extremely high play value, as even the DX version had different transformation standby and transformation sounds for Geets and Seeker.
This time, as a memorial, a wealth of in-game audio for Geets and Seekers will be included, further increasing the play value.

For example, if you press the bottom button while the Gigant Hammer Buckle is loaded, the attack sound of the Gigant Hammer from the movie will play.

Seeker mode: A sound that creates a wall
Geats mode: A simple impact sound is produced.

This way, different sounds will be played for each rider!
We are currently developing the audio program so that you can enjoy it to the fullest, so please look forward to it!


Finally, we would like to introduce the Raise Buckle Display Stand, which was also mentioned in Banmani and will soon be available for order.
 

As Vanmani says, "It's super compact!", but it really is a compact way to display your Raise Buckle!

Are there any of you who have HENSHIN BELT display stands placed on the shelves in your room, but are worried that "I want to put more, but I don't have the space..."?
Then this Raise Buckle Display Stand is perfect for you!

It's about this size compared to the HENSHIN BELT display stand.
 

 
The depth is quite thin so you can display the Raise buckles endlessly!

And with only these two parts, it's an extremely simple construction, taking almost zero seconds to assemble!
Once it arrives at your home, you can assemble and display it right away!
It's a very speedy product.


By the way, although the design is simple, it also has the DGP logo designed at the base.

Now, just one last thing to add...
This product cannot display Jamat buckles (both DX and Memorial).
Because


This is because the buttons that could be pressed on DISIRE DRIVER can no longer be pressed on this base.
When a Jamat buckle is loaded, this button-like protrusion interferes and causes the buckle to pop off.

It's the same principle, but you cannot play with the device by operating levers or handles while it's attached.
To give a specific example,
◆ Zombie Buckle
You cannot attach it to the base and twist the lever to deploy the arm.
However, it is possible to unfold the arms beforehand and then attach them to the base.

◆Bujin Sword Buckle
The sword cannot be drawn when attached to the base.
However, it is possible to attach it to the base after unsheathing the sword.

As long as you pay attention to the order, the items will be displayed properly, so we appreciate your understanding in advance.

So,
・For those who want to display it together with HENSHIN BELT → Display pedestal
・For those who want to display just the Raise Buckle easily → Raise Buckle Display Base

I hope you will use both of them for these purposes!


The DGP EDITION display stand is also now available for preorder!
Don't forget!

That's all for this blog.
