Some more catalog images from the upcoming 17th Hesei Rider series have surfaced online, giving us some details regarding the arsenal of Kamen Rider Ghost!

Ghost (and the still-unseen Kamen Rider Specter) will transform using the Ghost Driver! This belt device will be sold with two Ghost Eyecons- the Ore Eyecon and the Edison Eyecon.

Next up is Kamen Rider Ghosts’ personal weapon- the GanGan Saber! According to recent rumors, the Saber can transform into several alternative configurations based on whatever Eyecon is used by Kamen Rider Ghost. By charging this Saber along with the Ghost Driver, Kamen Rider Ghost can perform the Omega Break attack! The GanGan saber will be sold with the Musashi Ghost Eyecon.

Last but certainly not least, is the weapon of Kamen Rider Specter- the GanGan Hand! This weapon appears to be a shotgun with a hand mounted on the front of the barrel, potentially for long-distance attacks. The GanGan Hand is packaged with the Specter Ghost Eyecon and can also perform an Omega Break attack.

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!

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.

So what do you think of the reveal of the 17th Heisei Kamen Rider? Let us know what you think of Kamen Rider Ghost in the comments!
