【Kamen Rider My-Th】Multiple new Riders, including Kamen Rider Rid, use it to transform! DX Hammer Born Buckle, which can also be linked with the My-Th Driver and Ride Eggs 1, newly appears!

Hearing of transform belt toys, many people might imagine inserting items or operating levers. However, “DX Hammer Born Buckle” appearing from “Kamen Rider My-Th” changes that image in a slightly heroic direction. One of the Born Buckles used by Kamen Rider Rid during transformation, what catches the eye is the hammer-shaped lever provided on the red-based buckle. Gazing and ending with “I see, a hammer is the motif” is not all. Incorporating this hammer itself into the transformation movement is the fun unique to this item. Because appearance and how to play are solidly linked, it is a finish that makes you want to imagine actions in the show from the moment you take it in hand.

The major feature of DX Hammer Born Buckle is that by combining it with the separately sold “My-Th Driver” and “Ride Eggs 1”, you can enjoy transformation play into Kamen Rider Rid. The flow of transforming by operating the Ride Eggs as if “smashing it open” using the hammer-shaped lever has considerable impact even just explaining in words. Rather than completing simply by pressing a switch, because you move your own hands to make the action happen, being able to easily taste the feeling “Now, I am doing the transformation operation” would be the point. Precisely because the powerful motif of a hammer is not made into a mere ornament but placed at the center of the gimmick, you will want to reproduce heroic transformation scenes typical of Kamen Rider Rid even with toys.

What cannot be forgotten when talking about this item is the point that it is a type of “Born Buckle” used by attaching to the My-Th Driver. In other words, rather than just gazing at the standalone design of DX Hammer Born Buckle, the world of play completes through combinations with the Driver. The red buckle and characteristic hammer lever have a presence, and when attached, seem to make you feel “the atmosphere is different from the usual belt”. The mechanism of expressing individuality for each Rider by exchanging transformation items is appealing not only to people who want to enjoy reproduction of the show, but also to people who want to collect related items and test combinations. It can be called a type of item where ways to play and ways to show expand the more your collection increases.

What is even more interesting is the relationship between the Hammer Born Buckle and the Riders in the show. The central user is of course Kamen Rider Rid, but when the Zodiac is arranged in a circle, Riders related to the “Ox” and “Boar” positioned on the north side might also use this buckle. And another person that cannot be missed is the mysterious black Kamen Rider My-Th. Because of using the same Born Buckle, imaginations not ending with just toy gimmicks expand, wondering “Why do they have the same item?” and “What kind of relationship is there with Rid?”. Considering the meaning of items while following the story is also a way to enjoy unique to Tokusatsu works.

Summarizing the charm of DX Hammer Born Buckle, it lies in being able to consistently enjoy the easy-to-understand individuality of “using a hammer” from design to transformation action. Powerful appearance of the red buckle, bold gimmick operating to smash the Ride Eggs open, linkage with the My-Th Driver, and settings that seem to connect to multiple Riders. Not just any single one, but through each combining, it becomes an item making you think “I want to actually touch and transform”. Not to mention people who want to reproduce Kamen Rider Rid's transformation, even for people who want to collect Born Buckles from “Kamen Rider My-Th” and deeply enjoy even their settings, it is a item of interest. The feeling of transforming through heroic operations like wielding a hammer seems to remain strongly impressive among numerous transformation items.
