A handful of new images for the 17th Hesei-era Kamen Rider have surfaced online!

These updated catalog shots give us the best look yet at Kamen Rider Ghost along with two new forms!

*One headshot shows Ghost in yellow with modified eyes. At the moment some fans theorize this helmet may belong to the rumored Edison Eyecon.

*Another catalog image shows Kamen Rider Ghost using the Robin Eyecon! This form is primarily green and seems to be armed with a new weapon. Though no other images are available at the time of writing, translations of the available scans suggest that Ghost will also have a red form and a blue form.

Yet another new scan for the 17th Heisei Kamen Rider has surfaced online! This time we have learned the backstory for the upcoming series:

*Kamen Rider Ghosts’ real name is Tekuuji Takeru, a young man training to be a Ghost Hunter who receives the Ore Eyecon from his (supposedly deceased) father.

*When trying to protect the Eyecon, Takeru is killed by a Ganma– a monster from another world! In order to protect others from the Ganma, Takeru is given a secondary life and- by using the Eyecon with the Ghost Driver– is reborn as a Kamen Rider!

*Once reborn, Takeru must travel the world to collect the Eyecons of 15 Great Men in 99 Days, to earn one wish. But along the way, Takeru finds himself in a war that may change the fate of the entire world…

Definitely sounds like some fascinating adventures ahead for this new Rider! Be sure to share your thoughts on this new series in our ongoing Kamen Rider Ghost Rumor Thread!

More news for the 17th Heisei Kamen Rider series is rolling in and now we have concrete pictures and info! The following images give us our first clear look at Kamen Rider Ghost’s series logo. One which looks to incorporate further the overall Eye gimmick of the Ghost Eyecons.

Additionally we have some first looks at Ghost’s toyline. Up first is a silhouetted image of the secondary rider for the series, Kamen Rider Specter! This image also confirms the name of this series gimmick line (ala Arms Change or Tire Koukan). Ghost’s line is known as Ghost Change! Specter is labelled as GC03 which is telling. Kamen Rider Ghost Ore Soul and at least one of his alternate forms will be released first with Specter up after that!

Which speaking of we also get a look at GC01 Ghost Orel Soul while riding his VERY unorthodox Rider Machine. That’s right, a multi-piece combining machine, this year we have the Iguana Ghostriker! The combination of a black and very skeletal horse-like bike and a literal ghost ship! When the 2 combine together it’s clear where this machine get’s it’s name, as combined they form a giant robot Iguana! These images also offer a clear look at the very first DX Ghost Icon! The DX Ore Eyecon is Ghost’s default Eyecon that allows him to access his standard Ore Soul form.

Let’s go-go-go-Ghost!

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!

And here we are folks, the first look at 17th Heisei rider, Kamen Rider Ghost! After months of speculation and false information we have our very first look at the character thanks to a toy catalog scan!

Kamen Rider Ghost uses the Ghost Driver to transform. When inserting a Ghost Eyecon into the driver the spirit of a ghost is absorbed and projected onto the users body in the form of a hood/jacket. This construct with a face mask covers the suit from behind to create the primary look of the rider. An orange and black with a horn, a hero fit to premiere around October. Though if translations are correct not only will Ghost appear first in Kamen Drive: Surprise Future, but his show will premiere in late september!

These images also give us our first look at the Ghost Driver and Eyecons themselves. The Ghost Driver features a lever on the right side that needs to be pulled back to accept an Eyecon then pushed back into to activate the gimmick. And the Gangan Saber is Ghost’s primary weapon.
