Unboxing 50th Anniversary Legend Henshin Belt Series : Henshin Belt Typhoon ( Kamen Rider Ichigou )

"Rider.... Henshin !!  ... Tcuor !!" 


Nice nostalgic motorcycle revving sound when switching the belt on. Cost SGD 45.42... very expensive for a Legend Rider Henshin Belt... but it is mainly due to the big packaging... Anyway, this 2021 version has a very compact activation slider compared to its predecessor released a few years ago having a large press lever, and hence the belt does not look very awkward compared to the previous one. The new belt's spinning mechanism has the centre piece spinning for the entire period of henshin sound played, which the older version is unable to do. However, the LEDs are in a single red colour, unlike the older version which has red, green and yellow. Light patterns formed seemed to be different too. Belt straps used are DX sized, so probably DX extension belts are compatible with this belt. I will be re-belting it on a larger belt strap with some belt-straps joining here and there, as I could not find a proper sized belt strap. And also very tempted to remake my previous one into the older white belt strap version... Will see how...

 

Side plates are separate pieces from the main front piece (older version has them pinned to the front pieces).
