Azrael asked the question: What if the Heisei Kamen Riders we know were made in the Showa era when Shotaro Ishinomori was alive? What would they look like? Add a bit of monster make up to the hands and arms,”thorn” hair extensions and a rose tattoo on the forehead to make a costume that brings a sense of fear and pain!Ĭredit to DeviantArtist Azrael1983 for this brilliant idea. The core of it consisting of a large rose in the hair with a metal collar, bikini top and side armor (seemingly leather based on the shine of it, but tweaks can be made), a “petal” skirt with a loose fitting belt and long knee high boots with razor sharp heels and toes. The costume pitch for this is something a bit racy but simple. Belses was a wicked woman and her thorny vines and razor sharp claws lay waste to any human or Gurongi who dared to challenge her. She serves not only to give a better idea of what kind of hellish war Riku was fighting, but also a glimpse into what Rose-type Gurongi are capable of.
It is unclear what his Driver does, since his limbs have no modules, but perhaps fan expansion can create “Villain Astroswitches” to tie into his copying ability.īelses Baru-Ba (The first Rose Gurongi from the 2015 Kuuga manga)ĭuring Riku’s time as Kuuga, the Gurongi’s Gegeru murder games were judged by Belses, the predecessor of Ra-Baruba-De. Boot is interesting as he can copy and assume the form of Rider villains, as he changed into Kazari to fight OOO. He is essentially a SOLU alien, like Nadeshiko and much like her has a Driver with only dual switch slots. Zipper shoes can be optional.īoot is another Stage Show character, this time from Fourze.
All you really need to pull this one off is a vintage theater usher costume, white gloves and some extra clothing material for the coat tails and more gold buttons. Red Woz wears what appears to be a twist on an old 1920s theater usher uniform (makes sense since he debuted at a theater stageshow) with black leather zipper shoes and white gloves. (The First and Next’s 1, 2 and V3 and Amazons Alpha and Omega) The rebooted versions of Showa Riders also appear at some point in the show due to time shenanigans. And in this stage show, we learn there is an alternate timeline where Tsukuyomi became the queen of all space and time and another alternate Woz appears to ensure his timeline comes to pass. IWAE! The Demon King of Time’s story has drawn to a close with a stage show.
Taking Build’s Cross-Z Build movie exclusive fused form design and combining it with a beloved Digimon that also debuted at the cinemas way back at the dawn of the then new millennium, OMNIMON!.Īlternatively, other Rider/Digimon concept ideas are Kamen Rider Brave Crimson Duke Gamer Level 99, 12 Deva themed Ryuki-type Riders, and a Renamon themed form for Valkyrie. In honor of this milestone, the first costume concept pitch I have centers around the theme of two beings changing into fused components of a more powerful form. It's possible that this would have been used for Me-Garume-Re's Challenge Mode match, since it's one of the three monsters who don't appear in it.Digimon X Kamen Rider: Build Digital Knight formĢ019 is the 20th anniversary of Digimon, the lucrative media merchandise machine Bandai has in its arsenal of IPs aside from the toy rights to Kamen Rider and other heroes. In the show's lore, it's the early name of Me-Garume-Re (the chameleon monster) before he was promoted to a higher rank. The game's files contain the character name "Zu-Garume-Re". While Godai does appear in the ending credits for beating Challenge Mode, he is only shown from behind.
It's possible that Yusuke would've appeared very early in Challenge Mode fighting against Zu-Gumun-Ba (the spider monster) like he does in the series, since the latter is one of the three monsters who don't appear in it. The game's files contain unused textures for Yusuke Godai, the untransformed form of the show's title character. It's also the first one to be based on a then-ongoing entry, resulting in a rushed adaptation of the first half of the show and the developer having to take artistic liberties with the then-unseen Rising forms and/or Ultimate Kuuga's movesets (or the complete absence of a main character, in the case of the improvised Amazing Mighty form). Kamen Rider Kuuga is the third fighting game based on the Kamen Rider franchise by KAZe, who also previously made Kamen Rider and Kamen Rider V3 for the PS1.
