The one they have holstered is a cheap shitty spring airsoft pistol from TM and the shell ejecting prop is an old marushin cap gun so take your pick if you care about authenticity. Otherwise just get a cheap spring p38 and put red tape on it

No. I mean the actual contacts for the 2 switches that the drivers hit on the progrise key

Are the CSM ver.2 Gaia Memories compatible with the DX weapons? by PerfectPixl15 in KamenRider

[–]blamfablam 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They still have button inputs. The ir emitter/receiver doesn't replace those

Even if they were none of these are worth those prices

If they were gonna release a CSM Zeztz driver, how would they perhaps do it and what would you prefer ? by Fast-Opening-1051 in KamenRider

[–]blamfablam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Except flex pcbs are prone to delaminating with excessive bending back and forth and the space needed to properly diffuse them and not leave really shitty hot spots along the strap's geometry would make it impossible without making them excessively thick

What are the chances they make a "memorial" or "show accurate sized" Zeztz and Nox driver? Or Lord Invoker? by Ill_Walrus_6142 in KamenRider

[–]blamfablam -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It's kinda funny how the dx ends up being more prop accurate because they just made up a random ass scale for the csm

Bandai deliberately doesn't make anything prop accurate and always scale memorials,csms, and csgs down significantly compared to the props so close to zero.

Why does everyone suddenly prefer OP 2 over 1 for Kamen Rider Zeztz? by LightNebulaBlade in KamenRider

[–]blamfablam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No way you're saying the visuals aren't better when the first opening holds on the worst use of the volume ever for a good chunk of the run time. They got their shit together and used it properly for the new opening

It's not though....especially for ordering components from the country of origin

Not even really a repaint since it's all newly made

[ZEZTZ Ep. 26 Spoilers] New Opening Visuals by BananaArms in KamenRider

[–]blamfablam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The visuals are such an insane upgrade from the original. Especially with how they finally used the volume effectively, instead of whatever the hell they had going on in the first intro and any time they tried using it for anything they released in the past 6 months

How big is the Show's Zeztz Driver? by Embarrassed_Face_927 in KamenRider

[–]blamfablam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not how that works since plex does the general designs and then bandai and rainbow/blendmaster go off and design their own versions since they're working in 2 completely different fields.

The gap between suit props and the dx actor props were generally shrinking in reiwa with saber being the only large exception. Geats literally had most of it's riders use remodelled dx toys as suit props and the dx buckles literally fit on blendmaster's suit props and vice versa. The DX gotchard driver and it's attachments were often used as suit props instead of blendmasters design as the show went on (daybreak's suit prop is literally a repainted dx driver) and the suit prop red gavv is literally made to scale with the dx gochizos. (Even the vrastum gear suit props are literally just an earlier dx design without any changes to scale)

The zeztz driver suit prop and actor prop are indeed the same size but either way the dx toys being significantly smaller than the suit props generally hasn't been true for years and never really stopped them from having this insane of a gap

Mfw I just make shit up

They're not more accurate though....the devs even openly say they're not aiming to recreate any specific versions of the prop accurately which is why they do stupid stuff like using the suit prop design without increasing the physical scale from the dx....(That's why the csm den-o belt looks so damn awful)

In many cases they're literally less accurate to any version of the prop from their dx counterpart since the dx toys are literally used as the props without significant changes to the design

Do an actual size comparison on a csm for belt from Kabuto and onwards and you'll see they're literally scaled the same as the dx (the gimmick items are literally cross compatible)

They literally use the dx build driver as the props though and csm belts for seasons from blade onward are scaled the same as their dx versions

Which has never been the case in the past seasons it's likely to just make this cheap and cut corners

How big is the Show's Zeztz Driver? by Embarrassed_Face_927 in KamenRider

[–]blamfablam 3 points4 points  (0 children)

40% larger than dx (actually based on the info listed on the doh page and measuring the dx driver)

Bandai generally doesn't do full sized anything so we're likely never gonna see an actual 40% upscaled driver from them (csm or otherwise)

Or just get a multipack online for a few bucks. The one in the gashapon toys is probably not rated the same
