Thanks to some more creative fans in Japan we’ve seen yet another hack of the DX Wizardriver from Kamen Rider Wizard. This hack reveals something called Special Rush. Apparently Wizard will obtain and potentially use a ring by that name in Kamen Rider Movie Wars Ultimatum. The most intersting part is that when this ring is scanned across the Wizardriver it performs a special roll call for Showa riders. All of them from Ichigou through Shin. ZO and J appear to have been left out but depending on who you ask they are or aren’t considered Showa riders anyway.

But what does this shout out from the Wizardriver mean? Are we being treated to another round of awesome appearances by Showa Kamen Riders like we were in Movie Wars Megamax? The movie will officially feature Kamen Riders Wizard, Fourze, Meteor, Nadeshiko, OOO, Birth, W, and Accel, Bishoujo Kamen Poitrine, Sannagiman/Inazuman, and the Akumaizer 3. And presumably an appearance by Kamen Rider Beast! Will adding the Showa Kamen Riders top off this final love letter to the spirit of Inshinimori? Time will tell, stay tuned with Tokunation to find out.
