Kamen Rider Series Merchandise

There probably isn’t a person in Japan who hasn’t heard about Kamen Rider, the motorcycle-riding superhero who battles evil supervillains (kaijin) wearing his characteristic insectoid armor suit.

The franchise was fathered by Shotaro Ishinomori, also the creator of Cyborg 009, and ever since the broadcast of the first series in 1971 that followed Takeshi Hongo, the first-ever Kamen Rider, it spawned tens of TV series, theatricals, various specials, and even games, making it a classic gem of the tokusatsu genre.
