MEDICOM News: Kamen Rider DX, Old No. 1 Version 3.0!!!

That was a long title wasn't it? Couldn't even fit a decent pun in. Remember what I said about Medicom constantly improving themselves with my RH220 X Rider update? This new one falls into that category as well. Check out the image below. This one is RAH 349, Kamen Rider old number 1 version 3.0 and it's even more accurate to the original Rider suit than prior releases.

I know what your thinking, "The mouthpiece looks crooked"

To that I say yes, it is and that's how it was like in the show. Little things like that were actually part of the shows charm. You can actually see a part of Hongo's mouth through said crooked mouthpiece, which again is just like the show.

The belt is made of leather. That's worth noting since the belt in prior releases have been made of plastic. Add to that the new crossed-hands and you have a very appealing 3.0 Rider. Also below is a scanned image from the good people at www.Toyskingdom.com.hk gives you a good image breakdown between the three versions of old number one.

Needless to say this will be on our site in review and gallery form as soon as we can get our grubby hands on it.

Retail is 17,640 Yen and the release date is January '08.
