Eyes Open!

There’s no time like the present! And before the full high resolution reveal of S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Ghost takes place at this weekends’  Tamashii Nations event, we figured it would be the perfect time to share our gallery of the Ghost Change GC-01 Kamen Rider Ghost Ore Damashii!

Kamen Rider Ghost is about a month into it’s run and several of the initial gimmick figures have already made there way out to retail. As a starter GC-01 Ghost does an admirable job of recreating the series gimmick, the transforming “Damashiis”.  Ghost includes his default Ore Damashii as well as a non-transforming version of his Gan Gun Saber. And while it’s not too bad for gimmick line toy, it does leave much to be desired. GC-01 Ghost Ore Damashii seems to be channeling a little bit of Arms Change in it’s design but doesn’t quite nail it. I’ll give them credit though, I just wish it could have been a little bit better overall. Check out the full review for more details.

And be sure to check out a video review of Ghost Change Kamen Rider Ghost by my good friend and frequent collaborator Baltmatrix!

We’ve attached a selection of images to this post but read on after the jump for a full review and 45 image gallery of Ghost Change GC-01 Kamen Rider Ghost Ore Damashii!

Today  brings yet another early look at the upcoming 17th heisei kamen rider, Kamen Rider Ghost! 

– First up we have a brand new image giving us our first full bodied look at Ghost in 3 of his forms; Musashi Soul, Edison Soul, & Ore Soul.

– Next we have our first look at the various new weapons created from the combination of Ghost’s Ghost Gadgets with his Gangan Saber! Follow this link to see our breakdown of how those combinations work for each of Ghost’s Souls.

– Lastly we have our first clear look at how this years gimmick action figure line, Ghost Change, will work! In a similar fashion to the old COR line from Kabuto or the AC line from Gaim, the Soul “jackets” are accessories that snap on over the basic rider bodies. The jacket has a rotating face plat that when not connected to a rider gives the effect of a ghostly aura where the face should be. It would also apepar that the “sleeves” are jointed somewhat so as not to hinder the figures articulation. We know based on the Ghost Series release information that Ghost & Specter bodies will only be included with GC01 & GC03.

We’ll continue tot keep you up to date with all the Kamen Rider Ghost news we can as it becomes available!

Following up on the Ghost Gadget information, The Ghouly News has stumbled upon another find from Kamen Rider Ghost! This time we’re getting a better look at the upcoming Ghost Change series of gimmick figures. This years version of WAP, AC, TK, etc retail figures.

We’d previously known that GC01 would be Ghost Ore Soul, and that GC03 would be Specter, Specter Soul. And now we have some new images to match up with the rest of the sets as well:

  • GC01 Kamen Rider Ghost Ore Soul (October) 3456 yen. Includes a basic Ghost body and his jacket accessory as well as the Gangan Saber.
  • GC02 Musashi Soul & Edison Soul set (October) 2700 yen. Includes both Soul “jackets” and 2 weapons, 1 for each.
  • GC03 Kamen Rider Spectre, Specter Soul (November) 3456 yen. Includes a basic Specter body and his jacket accessory as well as the Gangan Hand.
  • GC04 Robin Soul & Billy the Kid Soul set (November) 2808 yen. Includes both soul “jackest” and 3 weapons/accessories.
  • GC05 Tutankhamun Soul & Nobunaga Soul set (December) 2700 yen. Includes both Soul “jackets” and 2 weapons.
  • GC06 Beethoven Soul & Benkei Soul set (December) 2700 yen. Includes both Soul “jackets” and 2 weapons/accessories.
  • GCEX Movie Wars 2016 2-Pack. This set is one we don’t know much about yet other than it includes the same as the above sets, 2 soul jackets and 2 accessories. Presumably one for Ghost & one for Specter.

As we’ve found out today, the additional Soul sets will be only the new set of armor for the rider with accessories, rather than including a whole new base body. You’ll need the base GC01 Ghost & G03 Specter to use each of the Soul 2-packs.

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!
