I guess the cost of electronics in both the driver and the seeds would push the price up too much.

At least they were smart enough to tease a HawkTiger set.

With any other Neo Heisei Series, they are bound to do it this way.
I understand not including other Riders, but would it have been too much to ask for Ichigo, Pine and Jinba Lemon?

Probably too many to accommodate I guess when it comes to manufacturing the packaging. I mean, there's already 1 faceplate and 2 adaptors, 2 sets of belt straps, 2 lock seed holders, the driver, three lockseeds, and belt stopper. I never bought Gaim dx toys but based on this unboxing and review video by wotafa, the cutting board and knife are separate pieces at point 0:55.

From the number of the items, they are going to carve the number of holes to put those things on a big block of Styrofoam and plastic bags to wrap each of the item. DX toys usually come with recycled paper that we see for egg cartons. Sure, they could put all of that toys in one big box without plastic wraps or polystrene block but it also risk getting the contents damaged because people are bound to mishandle them during shipment. At least 70% of the content are styrofoams, followed with plastics, with the said items then placed in it, followed by the main colourful packaging before put in another brown box.

I think the main reason (if we ignore the fact they want to sell other shit for inflated P-bandai prices) is that it's one of the few drivers where both the belt and the item that gets used both have electronics in them, when typically it's either one or the other. This is going to increase the price a lot.

I do think I saw that the DX lockseeds should work with this belt, given that they are the same size, which could help if anyone has a collection of lockseeds but just wants the new driver.
