Head comparison between Kamen Rider 2011-2012 and Topgunder which was rumored were the head was based upon.
For the past few months, you have heard rumors about it that we will have eggs next with monsters being called, Mazoku. Just recently, we have an alleged sketch of Kamen Rider 2011-2012's head design which is said to be based on Topgunder, a villain from the classic Metal Hero show, Metalder.
It was rumored that the show will be called, Kamen Rider Dragon with our hero being loosely based upon "heroes or great men" such as Hattori Hanzo, Billy The Kid, King Arthur, Bruce Lee and Tarzan and like his predecessors, he will utilize the multiple form change gimmick. Anyways, here are the list of known rumors about this new hero!
- These names are tentative, but the base form is "Kung-Fu". His other forms are described as "Gunman", "Knight", "Shinobi" and "Wild".
- Each form has 3 different states. The states are different from each other and the appearance and weapons change. For example: Pistol -> Dual Wield -> Rifle or Nunchuk -> Tonfa -> Lance.
- He has partners that are monsters, Dragon is a dragon. Arthur is a rock, Kid is a fox and Hanzo is a lizard. Tarzan is still a silhouette.
- The transformation item is called Monster Egg. They are transparent eggs where you can see the monster inside. These monsters can be created synthetically. And according to rumors, there will probably be over 100 eggs!
- The enemies are called Mazoku, basically demonic beings, inhabitants of hell etc.
- A Mazoku will show up in Kamen Rider OOO's summer movie. OOO will be using TakaJaTar (Taka, Kujaku, Cheetah) then the Mazoku shows up. When they are already fighting, the new Kamen Rider enters.
- The belt hatches the eggs.
- If the monsters doesn't absorb human energy they will revert form. Grown up beast -> Young beast -> Egg.
- The protagonist uses pet monsters to transform into a grown up beast. They have a master-servant relationship. The monsters are similar to Kamen Rider Ryuki's, they don't possess the user, they give a part of their power. This is what affects the form and fighting style.
- By combining the eggs, they can be changed into a bike or a giant monster.
- Because of a curse from the Mazoku, legends all over the world were turned into monsters.
Like all rumors, take all of these as a grain of salt.
