New Kamen Rider?

[Kamen Rider Ookalf]

We got a bit more info, namely glimpses of a second Rider named Specter, a form based on Musashibou Benkei, one based on Robin Hood, and one possibly based on Thomas Edison. Check out those visor shapes!

Yellow one looks like The Bee with a hood on.

Take it we can't speak of him just yet?

Picture time again! This time, we've got Ghost's weapon, the GanGan Saber, Specter's weapon, a closeup of the Ghost Driver, and several Ghost Eyecons: in addition to what we've seen before, we seem to have Tutankhamen, Billy the Kid, Nobunaga, and Beethoven!

Kamen Rider Ghost Soul forms
Robin Ghost Eyecon (green)
Beethoven Ghost Eyecon (grey)
Billy the Kid Ghost Eyecon (brownish)
Benkei Ghost Eyecon (white)

Kamen Rider Spectre Soul forms:
Tutankhamen Ghost Eyecon (turquoise)
Nobunaga Ghost Eyecon (purple)

Those two silhouetted Ghost Eyecons are reportedly for the Movie War 2016. As for the gadget rumors, each Gadget has an object mode and an “animal” mode and will be able to combine with Ghost’s GanGan Sabre and Spectre’s GanGan Hand depending on the Riders’ Soul (form) and those are (and again, take this with a grain of salt):

Condor Phone + GanGan Sabre = Bow mode (for Ghost Robin Soul)
Bat Clock + GanGan Sabre = Gun mode (for Ghost Billy the Kid Soul)
Spider Lantern + GanGan Sabre = Hammer mode (for Ghost Benkei Soul)
Cobra Mobile + GanGan Hand = Sickle mode (for Spectre Tutankhamen Soul)

First image is Kamen Rider Ghost' Default Form, Ore Tamashii. In this form, Ghost uses the GanGan Saber as his main weapon.


This yellow colored form is called the Edison Tamasii. This form's ability is yet to be confirmed.


This blue colored form is called the Newton Tamashii. In this form, Ghost's hands are covered in spheres that can let him control or manipulate gravity.


And lastly, this red colored form is called the Musashi Tamashii. He uses the GanGan Saber's dual sword mode.

As indicated before, Ghost form changes are marked by a change in his cloak. With the Ghost Change toyline, we see that these cloaks are themselves ghosts, which can seemingly float about on their own.

Also, meet Ghost's animal/tool companions, the Ghost Gadgets!

Yahoo Japan (http://headlines.yahoo.co. ... 6-sph-ent) has posted an article for the official announcement of Kamen Rider Ghost, the newest Kamen Rider series that will air on October 4 replacing Kamen Rider Drive.

This new Kamen Rider series will focus on themes such as “the secret to becoming a hero” and “accepting the feelings of great men”.

[Lunagel]

That gives us 49 Drive episodes, not bad.

Hmm, gonna be nice to see what style of fighting they end up giving Ghost. Also I do find it interesting how different pieces of clothes can make such different changes to a Kamen Rider. I remember Wizard's coat made Wizard look slimmer, and yet this like, coat jacket makes Ghost a bit bulkier.

I am liking this new costume for Kamen Rider Ghost. I'm honestly surprised they are revealing so many things this early. Kamen Rider Ghost hype?

[Renigami]

You know, Drive proved me wrong. Let's hope my initial thoughts of the mundane (how can the spirit of Edison even have any powerful implications??? has Thomas Edison while being dead somehow became Thor in spirit to harness??) spirits of the past can prove me wrong. And also Deadpool/Spiderman with a narwhal horn.

I am inclining to the feeling that they made specific callouts of power to Newton, Edison, etc, to encourage kids of their real life counterparts and more (by name) mentions into the scientific, technological, engineering, and mathematical fields on top of being a show to yearly merchandizing.

I remember Wizard's coat made Wizard look slimmer, and yet this like, coat jacket makes Ghost a bit bulkier.

To be fair, when I ride, my jacket makes me look bulky. I see Ghost sports more armor under the jacket than what Wizard has in armor.
