cards

Awesome toy, makes me want to do some reviews of the popy showa belts I have... anyway, I seem to recall a video on youtube of a guy using custom printed cards he printed off a bbs somewhere (probably 2ch) that could cause all kinds of weird sounds and rider name combos to pop up. It would be cool to get one of these and just make random barcodes just to see what sounds it plays.

Too many cards... O.o; I

Too many cards... O.o; I would have rather that the Belt had ten buttons that activated the Ten Riders (like the four on the Den-O Belt did) rather than keeping track of a bunch of cards.

I mean, what's gonna happen when Decade comes across Blade World??? That was the show that debuted actual playing cards with their Rouser weapons (I'm looking for only Garren's Buckle and Rouser, BTW), and each Rider (four total) has 12 cards... for a total of 48 + 1 Joker.

Good first review, but I still don't want one of these. None of the toys from DCD are really impressing me (nor do most from all KR shows, for that matter)...

Oh, BTW, the center rotating section can be removed from the Belt, a gimmick to be exploited later on.

From what I could tell from

From what I could tell from some videos on YouTube, the DecaDriver does recognize Advent cards and Rouzer cards. It just says "Advent card!" or "Rouzer card!" when you insert one, though. By far, the DecaDriver is a lot more impressive than the DienDriver.

He did...

Decade actually went to Blade's World after he went to Ryuki's world. safe to say the only rider powers he can access is that of Blade's. Yeah there is a secondary toy that goes there and the buckle is still used

I just finished "Kamen

I just finished "Kamen Rider Decade" subbed Ep 6 last night. It usually takes a while for me to acclimate to the style of a Kamen Rider series ("Den-O" being the exception), but I'm finding it difficult to attach to "Decade". Perhaps it's because I haven't seen all of the original nine shows (only "Blade", "Kabuto", "Den-O", and part of "Kiva"), and am missing a lot there, but... changing the lead Rider into a weapon for Decade!? WTH!

Oh, and too many cards. He has to use a card to sneeze, I'm sure. It's getting carried away...

Destroyer of Franchise

You guys sound like Narutaki now as his favourite quotes were:

"It's all your fault, Decade!"
"Because of you, Decade, this franchise (world) is also destroyed"

Though I'd say they should commemorate more than just a DecaDriver. A re-issue of all older DX version (not the Legend ones) Rider Weapons and Belts should be better. That way I can pick up the King Rouzer and the other Blade stuffs I missed out.

As for the other item that goes to the DecaDriver's buckle, it's called the Final Kamen Tanmatsu K-Touch. The K-Touch has an interesting 'touch-screen' system that you can slot in either the Rider Marks card or the numbered cards to activate a different set of sounds. I still fail to realise how they did that. Guess, I should get one to try it out.

Well, in case anyone's

Well, in case anyone's wondering, I won't be covering anything from DCD, so the path is clear from my end of things.

At least...

I'm planning to get the DX Rider-1 belt while I still have a chance. But...Decade's the reason why I lost faith in the series overall and I don't have plans on watching any future Masked Rider shows. I'm starting to like the previous ones from the first series up to Agito...

Wow, I didn't know I hated that series SO much...

I was a little tempted by this one, but the absence of attack specific sound effects kind of put me off.

Of course that's nowhere near as bad as the DiEnd Driver that actually contains no barcode reader and just cycles the same four sound effects no matter what card you insert. It doesn't even feature the correct sound effects for DiEnd's own henshin. Shame really, if it only had the correct henshin sound effects I would have picked one up when I was in Japan.

not worried

i think the toy was done first before the actual show was shown. much like the blade rouser or any other rouser, there was no time to insert that function
