    So is the new Chaosman 'Kamen Rider Black' & the Junkspot the original Kamen Rider?

    Here are my guesses.

    Mutant Evil = Kamen Rider V3
    Chaosman = Kamen Rider 1-Go (Movie costume)
    Hone-Borg 4th color = Kamen Rider 1-Go (TV costume, 1st version)
    Mutant Head (nr) = Kamen Rider 2-Go (TV costume, 1st version)
    Bigaro (nr)?? = Kamen Rider Amazon?? :D

    I never considered that the Chaosman could be KR Black, but Black didn't have dark green boots and helmet.

    The differences between the TV and Movie versions of Rider 1-Go are the eye colors, boot/glove colors and the faceplate color. Borg has pink eyes and a silvery faceplate, which are more consistent with the TV 1-Go. Chaosman has a very dark green head, hands and feet, and red eyes, which are more consistent with the movie portrayal of 1-Go. There were also different versions of the TV costume over time, I think, as the Riders were 'upgraded' during the show...

    What do you think? Right? Wrong? Nuts?

    The yellow eye of the junk spot chaosman makes it finally not like a kamen rider. It's tough that make one think of the kamen rider when first saw the junkspot one. But the one on the left make me know it is kamen rider even not looking at any description.

    Mutant Evil = Kamen Rider V3
    Chaosman = Kamen Rider 1-Go (TV costume, 1st version)
    Mutant Head (nr) = Kamen Rider 2-Go (TV costume, 1st version)

    the chaosman in the middle of this pic is according to Mori based on Riderman Hibiki.

    the Junkspot chaosman on the right of this pic I am theorizing is zanki

    An amazon Bigaro is a dream of mine.

    the Borg is just black and white - definitely NOT a shocker as Borg is a powerful hero and the shocker (sentouoin) were wimpy henchmen.

    Thanks datadub and akum6n for "background" information that enriches the enjoyment of the editions. I have a few of the figures in the green/red color scheme but never would have known that they were tributes without this info.
