Legend Rider Lockseeds
Based on Riders and other characters from past series, Legend Rider Lockseeds (レジェンドライダーロックシード) contain the power of the character they are based on, but don't offer much of that form's abilities.

Like normal Lockseeds, they contain images, with the core image depicting the Rider's Transformation Belt while the image on the backside of the lid usually depicts the item which is inserted to commence transformation, or something else related to the Rider, denoting them as the ingredients that make up the represented Rider.

They first appeared in the Movie War film Kamen Rider × Kamen Rider Gaim & Wizard: The Fateful Sengoku Movie Battle, where four such Lockseeds were used by Gaim, Baron, Ryugen, and Zangetsu. In-universe, these Lockseeds were created when the transformation items belonging to four of the most recently defeated Bujin Riders (Kamen Rider Bujin Double's Joker Memory, Kamen Rider Bujin OOO's Taka Medal, Kamen Rider Bujin Fourze's Rocket Switch, and Kamen Rider Bujin Wizard's Flame Ring) were fused with Helheim Fruit. What ultimately became of those Lockseeds is not shown in the movie.

Legend Rider Lockseeds later reappeared in Heisei Rider vs. Showa Rider: Kamen Rider Taisen feat. Super Sentai, which introduced the Heisei Rider Lockseed and Showa Rider Lockseed, special Lockseeds that could each channel the powers of fifteen individual Legend Rider Lockseeds (though they did not require those Lockseeds to still exist to remain functional), which had been created when the various Showa Riders and Heisei Riders were each defeated and transported to the Badan Empire's lair, where they were turned into Lockseeds. These Lockseeds were ultimately restored to their original, human selves by the actions of ZX and Gaim. What ultimately became of the Showa Rider and Heisei Rider Lockseeds was not shown in the movie.

When transforming into these Rider Arms, the user's personality may be changed somewhat to match that of the Rider's. This is first seen when both Ryugen and Zangetsu mimicked the pre-battle poses and catchphrases of Double and Fourze, something which Zangetsu did not appreciate and cut it off at the last moment. Similarly, Gaim announced his attack while in 1 Arms, something he normally doesn't do.
