At the launch of the Kamen Rider Gaim toyline it looked like all the basics were covered for the 4 main riders. But we soon noticed that one rider had been left out. Kamen Rider Zangetsu is the only Gaim rider who does not currently have a faceplate available to use with the DX Sengoku Driver. The others are included with their Lock Seeds or the driver itself.

However Zangetsu’s Seed is only sold with the Musou Saber, no faceplate. To rectify this problem Bandai has announced a promotional campaign for Zangetsu’s faceplate! Beginning November 9th you need only present a proof of purchase for Kamen Rider Gaim merchandise at participating store to receive a faceplate. Limit of 1 plate per customer. Of course this is limited to Japan so buyers outside the country will have to look to the secondary market.

The mystery of exactly where Kamen Rider Abyss is from may never be solved – is he a Kamen Rider Ryuki character from an alternate world or an undead character from the world of Kamen Rider Blade – but nevertheless he is a pretty cool figure.  We’ve taken a number of pictures of Kamen Rider Abyss, with his accessories and some accessories from other popular Kamen Rider characters, and they are here for your viewing.

 

Check out the pictures, and a write-up on my feelings of this figure, after the jump!
