A masterpiece that strikes the hearts of Kamen Rider fans—making one ponder, ”How many transformation belts have I bought now?”—has appeared again. From ”Kamen Rider Gotchard” comes a memorial item embodying the souls of two ”alchemists,” Rinne and Fuga: the ”PREMIUM DX Memorial AlchemisDriver Unit.” This is not just a reissue or a decorative variant, but a product that truly ”engraves memories,” with all sounds, designs, and included cards upgraded. Just the thought of being able to recreate that transformation scene in one's own room, rather than just on screen, is enough to make one's heart race.

The major appeal of this Memorial Edition is, above all, the addition of character voices. Every time the voices of Rinne Kudo (CV: Reiyo Matsumoto) and Fuga Kudo (CV: Kanji Ishimaru) play from the new button on the top surface, the emotions and tension from the series are revived. And that's not all. Even transformation sounds and finishing move sounds that couldn't be heard in the DX version are included, allowing for an immersive experience as if you've stepped into a part of the main story. The passion contained in each line of dialogue gives it weight as ”in-series equipment,” not just a toy.

The visual evolution is also unmissable. The pearl white paint applied to the unit body completely changes its previous impression. The contours stand out, and the shadows revealed by the angle of light are like those of a work of art. Furthermore, paint has been added to the fine details of the High Alchemist Ring, and its jewel-like sparkle excites the desire for ownership. The silver paint applied to the back of the orange section, in particular, is breathtakingly beautiful when light shines through it. Such attention to detail is why this product satisfies adult fans.

Finally, I want to mention the ring specifications. Compared to the slightly smaller ring in the DX version, a new size with an expanded inner diameter has been added for this Memorial Edition. This allows even adult fans with larger hands to comfortably wear the ring and enjoy the transformation gestures. This consideration for users demonstrates the product's completeness, going beyond just a luxury edition to be a product designed to be “used.”
