After yesterdays surprise reveal of the 17th Heisei Kamen Rider we now have some more initial rumors about the upcoming Kamen Rider Ghost! These rumors are currently posted at Heroshock and have yet to be corroborated, so for the time being take them with a healthy dose of skepticism.
– The Ghost Eyecons which contain the spirits of the dead and allow Ghost to switch between his forms will house the spirits of dead historical figures. The rumored names for these Eyecons being: Robin Ghost Eyecon (Robin Hood?), Billy The Kid Ghost Eyecon, Toutankhamun Ghost Eyecon, Beethoven Ghost Eyecon, Nobunaga Ghost Eyecon, Benkei Ghost Eyecon, Musashi Ghost Eyecon, & Edison Ghost Eyecon.
– The main Eyecon used by Ghost is the Ore Ghost Eyecon. The forms themselves are know as Souls. So his base form will be Kamen Rider Ghost Ore Soul. In this case Ore is read as “o-ray” or more literally translated the word “I”. So the Ore Eyecon is most likely Ghosts very own ghost/soul.
– Ghost wields two weapons, the Gangan Saber & Gangan Hand gun.
– This series we’ll also see a return to the rider having other devices. In this case called Ghost Gadgets. They are the Condor Phone, Cobra Mobile, Bat Clock, & Spider Lantern.
– Ghost’s Rider Machine will be called the Igunana Ghostriker.
– And the rumored secondary rider for the series will be Kamen Rider Specter!
We’ll keep you up to date as more rumors roll in for Kamen Rider Ghost!

The other thread was locked for an unreliable source, but the rumors of a Fashion theme for our next Kamen Rider may have some credence after all. http://www.jefusion.com/2015/05/kame...es-is.html?m=1

From FIqyFr3nB - “I heard the theme is fashion. As expected, I can’t imagine how it looks like without seeing the design image. I hope I get to see it next week”
Still best to take with a grain of salt, but a fashion themed Rider would be interesting.
In an earlier post by Jefusion(who we debunked earlier) the sourced quotes were from members of 2chan, this included FIqyFr3nB, who had previously provided rumors for Kamen Rider Drive's Type DeadHeat, Type Formula, and Kamen Rider Chaser.
From zQacw/7nsedJ - Kazuhiro Takahashi will be the head producer for the next series. He has previously worked as series producer for Kamen Rider Fourze, and a few episodes of Kamen Rider W and Kamen Rider OOO.
They also stated that it is likely that the tradition of the summer movie introducing the next main rider for the new series will return. This means that the Drive's final form and the next Kamen Rider will be officially revealed in next month's terebi-kun and before Kamen Rider Drive’s summer movie premieres this coming August.
Update 5-26
We have our trademark! And unless there's some clever naming scheme, this seems to debunk the fashion rumors.
Dr Kain says
Fashion themed? I heard it was going to be a card theme. But then, none of this is most likely true. I'm not even sure how a fashion themed series would even work. But then, I'll take anything after Drive. God I wish that show as ending already.

Let me reiterate what I said in the same news thread that used JeFusion source for the rumor:

There's a way I can take this theme and twist it into a pony related pun.
But I'm not really feeling it. So fashion pone.
ARQ says
I know you like using ponies for reaction stuff now but man cut down the size of it, not everyone is a fan and this is primarily a toku forum.
Keeping on topic. Fashion themed is quite an interesting one, it's not something usually marketed towards boys. I feel like it's going to be the same as the dancing in Gaim in that it'll serve as a backdrop as opposed to the theme of the suit and belt.
But in saying that it might also be a theme in that parts of the suit will change as if changing clothes, a bit like OOO in a way. For example maybe different shoes could result in different Rider Kicks.
MaskedRiderAsakura says
Fashion sounds like a really good idea for the gimmick line as well. The Tire Koukan series is cool but it just doesn't stack up to, say, outfitting figures with an entirely new set of armor or swapping torsos and heads and all of that other stuff.
