Absolute Radio has posted a brief clip in which Elizabeth Olsen, recently added to the cast of Godzilla, says that the movie is definitely not light-hearted.

In addition, Bryan Cranston(of AMC’s Breaking Bad) is reported to be in negotiations to join the cast as well, according to Yahoo News.

Blogger Hima Toys brings us a photo gallery of the recently released KT Try Chaser for the SIC KT Kuuga Mighty Form figure.

The Try Chaser adds a pair of gripping hands to the KT Kuuga Mighty Form figure which also lets him hold the Try-Acceler Rod. A clear stand is also included, for those that wish to display the figure without the use of the kick stand.

And now a sad bit of news folks. After 17 years of business, Tokyo’s famed Ultraman Land is closing its doors. The park was opened for operation in 1996 in Tokyo’s Sunshine City Complex. Ever since its creation the park has featured tons of activities for fans of all ages. Stage shows, live events, interviews and public appearances by cast and crew, and so much more. There are even replicas on display of nearly every Ultraman prop or costume that you could think of from the entire franchise!

Tsuburaya (Ultraman’s parent company) has stated that the parks closure coincides with the 50th Anniversary of the franchise. They’re gearing up for the anniversary itself but are closing the most memorable place for fans to enjoy Ultraman which seems odd. The park will close this September 2013 so if you’re a Japanese based fan or will be traveling there soon then be sure to drop in to see Ultraman Land for the last time.

With the premiere of Zyuden Sentai Kyoryuger this weekend it was only a matter of time before demos of the toys began to surface. Thanks to forum member Goblez for pointing us to a pair of videos showcasing the gimmicks of the role play weapons Gaburevolver and Gaburecalibur. A 3rd video showcases their combination as the Gaburecannon and how that affects the electronic gimmicks.

Official release for the Kyoryuger line of toys is this week and online retailers should be getting their stock in by the middle of next week. Tune into Tokunation.com for full reviews and galleries of these items as they hit the market!
