CSM: Kamen Rider Kuuga - Transformation Belt - Arcle (25th Anniversary Ver.) (Limited Edition) [Premium Bandai]

To celebrate the 25th anniversary of Kamen Rider Kuuga, the iconic CSM Transformation Belt Arcle makes a triumphant return in a completely renewed edition. This upgraded version, a full remake of the 2019 release (ver.1), features a completely redesigned appearance, enhanced sound performance, and for the first time ever, includes two newly sculpted accessories — the Mighty Anklets, representing the leg armor of Rising Mighty and Amazing Mighty forms.

The Arcle itself has been entirely re-engineered, with new sculpting and paint applications to elevate its presence as a premium collectible. The combination of silver and gunmetal tones across the body, accented by brilliant gold highlights on the Rising Armor and Ultimate Armor, gives the belt an even more authentic and powerful finish. Newly developed molds refine the detailing to match the on-screen prop with unprecedented accuracy.

In terms of sound evolution, both Mighty Form and Dragon Form transformation sounds have been refined to perfectly match the original audio from the series. Additional transformation sound variations have been included, faithfully reproducing moments from specific episodes—such as the first transformation of Rising Dragon. Two newly added sound effect buttons now deliver a wider range of effects, including jump and landing sounds, Gouram activation sounds, and even pose motion effects during transformation sequences for a more immersive role-play experience.

The belt also includes five newly added BGM tracks, featuring the beloved opening theme “Kamen Rider Kuuga!”, the ending theme “Aozora ni Naru”, and the emotionally charged farewell scene track from Episode 48. Together, these enhancements recreate the emotional and heroic atmosphere of Kamen Rider Kuuga in exquisite detail — a true celebration of a legend reborn.

[Specifications]

Just like the previous ver.1, this renewed edition allows you to recreate all of Kamen Rider Kuuga’s forms by swapping out the Rising Armor and Ultimate Armor. The fan-favorite “D Mode” is also included, letting you relive the iconic Sonic Wave transformation sound in stunning detail.

Additionally, the set includes Kaoru Ichijo’s cell phone, featuring playable voice lines from the character himself. By pressing the buttons, you can hear some of Ichijo’s most memorable quotes from the series.
(The audio for “Ichijo Kaoru’s Cell Phone” is the same as the one included in ver.1.)

This updated version also introduces two newly sculpted Mighty Anklets, making their first appearance in CSM history. Attach them to the legs and combine them with the Arcle to transform into Rising Mighty or Amazing Mighty, expanding your play and display possibilities even further.
