Kamen Rider Knuckle

Description

*Updated 1/11/16 with Jinba Marron from the Gaiden*

Knuckle/Zach becomes the pseudo-leader of Team Baron when Katio leaves on his quest to seek power, even though the beat rider teams don't seem to be much of a plot point anymore (no complaints there, really).

Knuckle uses the Kurumi (walnut) lock seed to transform.  His weapons are his big ol' fists which I had to include since they're indicative of his rider name.  And unlike Fourze's weapon modules, these gloves seem to be a fairly permanent fixture on the suit: Knuckle has them on (as opposed to them disappearing briefly) even when he's hitting the driver for the final attack.  An interesting design note, his driver is generic and mass produced like the Kurokage footsoldiers so he doesn't have a profile image on the driver's plate. 
Knuckle gets an upgrade in the Gaim Gaiden special movie in his own Jinba/Jimber armor.  This is Jinba Marron (chesnut) and gives him some spiked gauntlets.  I do think this form plays pretty well with the rest of Knuckle's design.  However, the 'baked/peeled chesnut' gauntlets that are revealed when the spikes fly off for a finisher (i.e. the recolor of OOO's Sagohzo) is incredibly stupid and ugly.  As such, I refuse to make it.  It's more of a special attack intermediary than actual form.  The spikes are Jinba Marron, not the red recolors.

Everything here is my hard work. Please don't touch anything without permission. Thanks.

Weren't his red fire fists under the Marron spikes a recolor of the Gorilla Medal's arms from OOOs?  That's what they looked like to me in screenshots.
