Bootleg " XD " ( DX ) Geiz Majesty Ridewatch ( Kamen Rider Zi-O / Zi O / Zio Series ) Knockoff KO

 It really is labelled as "XD" on its packaging, hahahahaha.... Cost SGD 28.35, it is way cheaper than the authentic DX, which is stupidly expensive... 

This has the same critical flaw of the bootleg Grand Zi-O Ridewatch that makes this not really compatible/interactive with the DX Ziku Driver - the side activation button lacks the double press feature to activate the henshin sound from the pre-henshin sound. This is critical as the DX Ziku Driver has the mechanism to push the side button TWICE in 1 rotation. A Bilibili video owner says he manage to overcome this by making the side button less sensitive to pressing. I tried to open up while fixing the stuck button but could not access to this switch as it's cover part has been glued tight... Anyway, I though maybe can just add another push switch (in parallel) to the side button and locate it somewhere where the belt wearer (my nephew) can conveniently press it to activate the henshin sound.
Yeap, have also ordered another one for myself as this is meant for my hephew.

Collected this and the Geiz Majesty ridewatch (both bootlegs) this morning. Cost SGD 28.35, it is way cheaper than the authentic DX, which is extremely difficult to purchase one in Singapore physical store nowadays...
But there is only 1 small but critical flaw that makes this not really compatible/interactive with the DX Ziku Driver - the side activation button lacks the double press feature to activate the henshin sound from the pre-henshin sound. This is critical as the DX Ziku Driver has the mechanism to push the side button TWICE in 1 rotation.

Am awaiting my Woz ridewatch holder to arrive to modify it to a henshin driver for these bootleg ridewatches... yah, also ordered a bootleg Ohma Zi-O ridewatch to add the henshin sound into it...

Unboxing 50th Anniversary Legend Henshin Belt Series : Henshin Belt Arcle ( Kamen Rider Kuuga )

 

Cost SGD 45.45... very expensive for a Legend Rider Henshin Belt... but it is mainly due to the big packaging... Missed out on the previous Legend Rider Arcle Belt, but am glad Bandai finally released this. In Taobao.com, the sellers are even starting to take pre-orders for the Legend Faiz Driver and Legend Fourze Driver, hopefully it is true. As with the new Legend Henshin Typhoon Belt in this line, this belt also has only has red colour LEDs. Will recolour the front and side pieces to more show accurate.

 

Also will try to fix the third party CSM belt straps in to make it more wearable by my fat waist... 

 

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).
