This time of the month always brings a plethora of magazine scans as well as new information about all your favorite tokus. By far the communities’ most favored right now is Kamen Rider Gaim. And Toei is certainly showing Gaim plenty of love revealing things like Kachidoki, Fresh Orange, & Rider 1 Arms.
Well it looks like based on an image teased today we’ll be seeing an upgrade for everybody’s favorite banana themed rider, Kamen Rider Baron, in the near future too! What we have teased here is Baron in silhouette using what appears to be Kamen Rider Dukes’ Lemon Energy Arms! Based on this image could Baron possibly be receiving his own Genesis Driver? Or a Genesis Core like Gaim? Will it be a full on Energy Form or a Jinba style arms like Gaim? Time will tell!
Speaking of Gaim, Jinba Arms allows him access to any of the four Energy Rider powers based on which of their locks he’s currently using. Lemon is his first and recent images revealed Peach & Cherry. This teaser image also shows one of them, most likely Jinba Melon, which has yet to be seen. We’ll keep you posted as more info becomes available.

Saw this on 4chan. Certainly matches some of the rumors. Guess we'll see. Wish it were from the front.

was posted on 2chan a few hours ago they seemed not sure themselves there. some said it was a local hero but i couldn't find any hero that matched.
there is another pic floating around showing a film scene in a crowd of people that supposedly has our new leading mans back shown

Considering Gaimu can mean Armored Warrior, depending on translation, this seems possible but after the whole belt thing I'm just not sure. If that is him it's definitely an interesting look. I could get behind that.

Looks samurai-ish.
A samurai themed rider, what would the gimmick be? Swords?

My guess is we could see one of a few things. We may see an old standby like cards come back. We could see him have a form change device that lets him select modes. We could possibly see him change modes sans-gimmick (Unlikely as bandai likes to sell mercy) or maybe we'll go back to having a rider with only a base and ultimate form (again, unlikely for merch reasons).
I certainly like the design. It has potential for form changes as well. It would be easy to change color, layer types of armor on top, give it different weapons and change the helmet crest or something. So far, so good. Now, I really hope the writing's there this time.

There was a rumor that the gimmick is stamps. Not like stamps you put on a post card, but like rubber stamps/seals. And the seals he uses are all based on previous Heisei Riders.
It sounds stupid, though.

Second one. To go with the samurai theme.

On the other hand, for as dumb as it sounds, I kind of like it. Better than giant swords being lugged around everywhere or appearing out of subspace when the rider wants them.
ShockerCon says
I saw a drawing that showed the collectible gimmick more like small daggers that he plugged into the side of his belt, either side.
