The official Media Blasters Twitter account posted an update about their upcoming release of Kamen Rider THE FIRST and Kamen Rider THE NEXT films on Blu-ray.
In the update, they revealed that they will release both films under a single set called "Kamen Rider Dyad", and posted the special Media Blasters storefront exclusive cover. The cover features the posters for both Kamen Rider THE FIRST and Kamen Rider THE NEXT. This and the extras of this version will not be included in their planned standard edition release. Some of the confirmed extras include liner notes and commentaries.
In addition, they also made an update about the standard edition release of their Kamen Rider Collection Blu-ray, which includes the following films, namely: Shin Kamen Rider: Prologue, Kamen Rider ZO, and Kamen Rider J. Like what they originally planned, the standard edition release will not include Kamen Rider World. A few weeks ago, they stated that special will be included in the standard edition. Also not included in the standard edition is the Keita Amemiya interview. All other features are still in this version.

Maybe we can come up with something in the future, "THE NEXT" release to help those people out.

The reasoning on why they removed said extras is due to the price and to justify the difference between the previously released Kamen Rider Elite Kollection, which had said extras as it was a limited edition release and was limited to 1000 copies. For fans who want to own Kamen Rider World legally, they hinted that they have plans for it in the future, especially with their "THE NEXT" release.
Details on when they will release said films on Blu-ray are yet to be announced.
