As shown in unused scenes from some ''KamenRider'' shows, this is how they handle transformations: a shot is taken with the actor, then one with the costumed stuntman in the same position, and finally the two shots are combined as a simultanious fade out/fade in with a CGI TransformationSequence covering up the transition.

Once he realizes the audience has caught on, Gonzo flees the scene...with the phone still attached, so he gets yanked back.
