BANDAI official KAMEN RIDER toy information site

Hello everyone. This is Funasen.

Today at 11pm is the deadline for pre-orders for the CSM SENGOKU DRIVER, Lockseed Charmon Set, and SENGOKU DRIVER Project Arc EDITION.







Finally, for today, we will be introducing some audio details for Lockseed.


First of all, the general specifications of the Lockseed are as follows:

●The base is equipped with 5 modes. (Varies depending on the type.)
Normal Lockseeds, such as the Orange Lockseed, can transition between five different modes by pressing and holding the button on the back.
1. Present World Mode: In this mode, the sound of a lock being unlocked is followed by the sound of a crack being opened.
​②Helheim mode: In this mode, after the unlocking sound, you will hear the sound of arms being generated. This is the sound you hear when transforming in Helheim.
③ Gense/Jinber Shortened Mode: In addition to the sound of ①, if this mode is set in the center of the belt, the transformation sound will not be played, but if it is set on the Genesis Core side, the transformation sound will be played immediately after cutting.
This mode recreates the scene in the movie where Jimber Lemon makes a shortened transformation sound.
④ Helheim: Jimber Shortened Mode: The unlocking sound is the same as ②, and the transformation sound is the same as ③.
⑤ Inves Game Mode: In this mode, the fruit name is not played after the unlocking sound. Instead, sounds for the Inves Game such as "Start battle with the back button" and "YOU WIN" are played.
Even in this mode, if you set it on the belt, the same transformation sounds as ① and ② will be played.

●When you briefly press the rear button, the character will shout "Transform!"
If you press it and immediately transform, the sound of your special move will change to the character's voice version!

The sound of unlocking and the sound of the crack opening (or the sound of the arms being generated) is played in two channels, so when you set the Lockseed on your belt, it continues to play in parallel with the sound of the lock, so there is no interruption in the sound!

●Since the lid can be recognized as being open or closed, if you attach it to your belt with the lid open, it will be recognized as being in the "post-transformation state", and even if you cut it, the sound will not be the transformation sound, but the special move sound!

It has these gimmicks.


Acorn and Lychee are recorded with Jounouchi's "Transform!" voice and a voiced special move. Durian and King Durian are recorded with the voice of Ouren.
Kouta also transforms into Donguri Durian, but due to space limitations we have not included a voice version of Kouta.
(Originally, he didn't even say "Transform!" when changing forms.)

Additionally, Lychee, King Durian, Kachidoki, and Kiwami do not feature the Inves game mode.
Given the circumstances of their creation, it is my understanding that these Lockseeds will not be treated as Inves Games.
(Having so many modes can make the game a little confusing, so we've removed unnecessary Lockseeds.)
The sound doesn't change depending on the type, so please enjoy the Orange, Acorn, and Durian varieties.

Additionally, the Kachidoki Extreme Lockseed does not feature the Jimbar shortening mode.
Because it's not a Lockseed that can be used in that way.
Although it is possible to play with the toy in its own original form, the main reason for this is that these two types each have a number of other gimmicks, and we didn't want to make the branching too complicated.
Now let's introduce the new gimmicks of these two Lockseeds.

The "Kachidoki Lockseed" is equipped with a new unique gimmick: "Megahex Battle Mode"!
This mode does not play the clicking sound of the transformation, recreating the Kiwami Arms transformation scene at the beginning of Movie War Full Throttle.

And here is the unique evolution gimmick of the Extreme Lockseed.
■The transformation sounds of Kiwami Arms have been changed so that the voice dialogue with Kachidoki is no longer there and the sound comes from the Kiwami Lockseed side!
Those who own the DX version will know this, but because there is variation in the timing and tempo of the audio depending on the individual unit, there were many cases where the ``loud, loud, loud, loud'' exchange was slightly out of sync.
One thing that cannot be helped is that there are differences in audio ICs of less than 1% due to individual variances.
(That being said, there's almost no discomfort when listening to it alone, but when combined it stands out.)
In addition, the difference in performance would vary depending on the remaining battery charge in each device, making it difficult to mass-produce a perfect combination with no differences.
The dialogue will no longer have that exaggerated, multiple sound effect that hits the ears, but this modification will result in a beautiful Kiwami Arms transformation sound.
This also means that there will be no need to include the sound that is fixed to Kiwami Arms in Zangetsu's "Shin Kachidoki Lockseed", so even if, by some chance, something that can be inserted into Shin Kachidoki is ever born, it will always be welcomed as a toy!!
(By the way, there are no plans for this at the moment, so don't get your hopes up. This is just to leave the possibility open for it to be added later as a toy.)

After transforming into Kiwami Arms, press the button on the back of the Lockseed to select your weapon of choice. After the sound of the weapon you want to select plays, press the button to unlock the key to reserve the weapon. After reserving multiple weapons, you can twist the Kiwami Lockseed and the weapon names will play in the order they were reserved!
This was mentioned early on, but we added a gimmick that lets you summon any weapon you want. You can select weapons in order, like with the "Icon Driver G."

That's all about the new Lockseed gimmick.
The packaging for the "CSM Lockseed Charmon Set" is now complete, so we are happy to reveal it to you!
It turned out to be a cool double A-side album!





Open until 11pm today. We look forward to your reservation!



Well, have you seen "KAMEN RIDER ZERO-ONE The Movie REAL×TIME" yet?
We will introduce Product Information that has been released along with the movie's release.
(Please note that this contains some spoilers if you haven't seen the movie!)





The "DX HELLRISE PROGRISEKEY "includes audio from the movie of Hiden Aruto, played by Fumiya Takahashi.
It includes a series of lines related to the transformation, and when you press the button on the Progrise Key after transforming, Aruto's anguished voice will be heard.
(It's not something I put there out of bad taste. It's a reenactment from the movie.)

Here's the package!



And when Bell used the "DX Eden Zetsumerise Key & Eden Driver Unit", he was able to transform into another rider called KAMEN RIDER Lucifer!
The transformation sounds and special move sounds are completely different, and even with the toy you can switch to Lucifer mode by pressing and holding the Eden Zetsumerize Key button.
Of course, you can also play in each mode in conjunction with HENSHIN BELT such as HIDEN ZERO-ONE DRIVER and Aims Shot Riser!



Here's the package! The front is Eden and the back is Lucifer!





Next, we will introduce the packaging designs of the products that are currently accepting pre-orders!

The "KAMEN RIDER OOO 10th Anniversary HENSHIN BELT DX OOO DRIVER" and "KAMEN RIDER OOO 10th Anniversary DX O Medal Set" are exclusive to the web and will not be available in stores, so they have a different packaging design from previous ver. 20th items and are not displayed in stores to make them stand out.

Here's the surface of OOO DRIVER!



The back looks like this.



Next up, here is the Oh Medal.

   

This one is obviously easy to understand, but you can place two products side by side and connect the images to create one picture!





On the front are Oars' basic form, the Tatoba Combo, and Oars' final form, the Putotyra Combo.
The back side features a design reminiscent of the final episode and Heisei Generations FINAL, showing Oars and Ankh reaching out to each other in the sky.
The line is from the reunion scene in Heisei Generations FINAL.
We are accepting orders until Friday, January 8th of next year, so please consider purchasing.

Finally, although reservations have closed, we would like to introduce some connecting packages.
This is a package of three "Memorial Progrise Key" products!

First up is "SIDE Hiden Intelligence"!


Next up is "SIDE AIMS & ZAIA"!!


And then there's "SIDE MetsubouJinrai.net"!!!


Both designs are cool and evoke the shadowy scenes from the opening.

And the back side...



The design makes it appear as if the three packages are connected side by side.
This is also super cool!

That's all for today's blog.
The next update will be the last one of the year on Monday, December 28th.

Well then!
