In the past couple of days I've asked questions and posted stuff that I feel in other subreddits would get pretty easily downvoted and shrugged off, but you guys have been very fun, very informative, and very patient with a lot of my rookie questions getting into this space.
I see myself becoming a long time fan of Kamen Rider And I'm looking forward to getting through everything that I've missed before. Thank you all
So I have some understanding that a CSM product is generally going to be made strictly for adults with measurements with quality and with functionality.
I also kind of understand that the overall quality of the sounds and the lights and the effects are drastically up. My current hope and how I'm trying to juggle my spending in the future, I just bought The Dx driver and the standard capsem collection. Pretty happy with it and I've made a post separately about how I feel like I have to kind of give up on trying to get the updated sound caps, due to the nature of pre-order and just not having enough money to drop.
What I would like to know in the past when a CSM driver comes out
How much generally of the accessories that make the driver do its thing are also updated (ie separate product or bundled in) or are you expected to already have.
How much in the past have CSM drivers actively added to its sound and presentation even when just using the baseline toy modules like the capsems (For example I'm willing to forego trying to collect the sound capsums if the CSM belt potentially and or historically covers those bases on their own)
I really appreciate the community helping me with this because we're getting to the end of zeztz in like two or three months and I really want to make sure that if I'm going to have some kind of upgrade to my collection I'm making smart decisions with my money lol. Thanks
So from what I'm seeing I'm... unfortunately very late on preorders for alot of places and if I want to get these in release I gotta pre order asap (can't do that ATM)
So my question to you all is, are sound modules for rider belts like a one and done kind of collection? Or is it possible that they will get a re release or more open release after their launches allowing me to buy them later?
I might have to accept that I'll only be able to collect the standard capsems least until the potential CSM.
Becoming a new fan of this franchise I'm seeing that there is a lot of love and care made for even some of the older Kamen Rider drivers. I remember as a kid having a lot of old power ranger toys and morphers and even if I try to compare stuff back to my childhood to what was around with Kamen Rider I feel like the former outpaces the latter immensely.
Is this me Miss remembering the quality of toy I used to have or am I on the money and that like Americanized tokusatsu stuff was made on the super cheap or is it even a Kamen rider vs sentai thing?
I remember trying to watch fourze years ago and the vibe just wasn't something I was into. Too fast paced without much actually happening in 12 eps. (7 year old opinion not trying to be mean, I'ma give it another shot after zeztz)
I remember seeing some post months ago saying that Zeztz is too slow but I'm on episode 21 and I feel so fed with what they're focusing on. The over arching drama of code vs the evil guys I'm glad is primarily in the background. Zeztz has to focus on saving people immediately and given how many people we know got infected from his screw up, that's a lot of clean up you gotta juggle before directly hitting the evil org.
Codes secrets are getting more inticiing as more agents are coming back online and they each have distinct vibes.
The detectives are always a necessary help with finding out information while being a great comedy duo, The rest of the supporting cast whether it be the villains or allies are always giving us a more human connection to what's going on when you aren't the one being superpowered, and Baku is just a great hero who is primarily focused on protecting people instead of some grand mission, especially when you consider his first screw up potentially infected everyone with those butterfly bad dreams (only up to ep 21 so no spoilers pls)
I love how this shows focus and pacing are going and it's making me really wanna check in on older seasons and see just how different they all are. I'm fed personally on zeztz but when it's over I know I'll be in the mood for different flavors I was more resistant to.
Also....pfft i love code number 5. What a prick
