The always hilarious Black Nerd (@BlackNerdComedy) got to visit the folks at Shout!Factory (the ones who created the Power Rangers DVD box sets) and they video-taped it! But there’s something mysterious going on…

While celebrating their 10th Anniversary, they have a box labeled “20th Anniversary” with a lightening bolt. Upon the Black Nerd stealing the box, a light shines out followed by the classic communicator alert from Mighty Morphin Power Rangers.

Check out the video below!

So … Ranger nation, what’s in the box?

It seems that the reveals contained in the S.H. Figuarts Collection Book released this week are not over! Courtesy of Cybergundam, we now have our first look at the next Tamashii Web exclusive – Kamen Rider 2 in his original costume, complete with the coveted black helmet!

This version of Rider 2 ships in December and will retail for 2940 yen. It is expected that he will join fellow December exclusive Rider Blade King Form within the month.

There is no word yet on how or if at all there will be a release of the final major Rider 2 variant, primarily used in later appearances, sharing the suit and red boots and gloves of New Rider 2 but has a similarly black helmet. If there is, you’ll be sure to hear about it here at TokuNation.com!

The good people at TV Shows On DVD have at last confirmed a release for the second half of DIC Entertainment’s tokusatsu project, “Superhuman Samurai Syber Squad.”

This second volume will be released on October 1st at the very reasonable price of 12.98 for the remaining 25 episodes!

San Diego Comic Con 2013 is less than a week away, and TokuNation.com is going to be there in attendance to bring all the pictures, news, and more that you could ever ask for.

Another item up for grabs at Bandai‘s booth this year is the 4 inch Metallic Mighty Morphin Green Ranger with Power Coin. The figure is painted with a metallic finish, and rather surprisingly, comes with the “megazord” coin from Mighty Morphin Power Rangers which will work in your Legacy Morpher. If you want the complete set of coins, you’ll need this bad boy as well as the highly-sought-after Golden Legacy Morpher, another SDCC 2013 exclusive.

This figure will be sold for $25 and is limited to only 300 pieces.

Also note – site owner and administrator Kickback will not only be at SDCC 2013 this year, but is also confirmed for a meet and greet with legendary Jason David Frank, who played Tommy Oliver, the Green and White Ranger.

Kickback will be broadcasting on Twitter and Facebook throughout the show, answering your questions and taking pictures at your request. Follow us @TokuNation on Twitter and be sure to ”Like” us on Facebook so you can stay up to speed with everything happening at SDCC 2013!

Go Go Power Rangers!

UPDATE! We got our numbers backwards. There’s 500 of this Green Ranger figure. The Gold Gosei Morpher (check tomorrow!) will be at 300 pieces. Our bad!

Toei registered two trade marks: one titled Kamen Nordia, and another: Kamen Rider Musou, the news was just recently made public.

Kamen Norida was a parody skit that aired regularly in the 80s and early 90s, but the creators did so without permission from Toei.

It is entirely possible that we could see a new parody series akin to Akibaranger, and there has been speculation that we might be seeing another Kamen Rider Battle Ride War game on the horizon.

Of course, this all pure speculation, there’s not much to go on at the time of this posting.

What’s you’re theories? Make the jump and discuss in the thread.

The preview night of Bandai’s Tamashii Features Volume 6 is well under way and already we have some rather interesting reveals on our hands!

Our first real reveal of the event is a renewal version of Kamen Rider Kabuto, who is due out in 2014. This news comes hot on the heels of the Kamen Rider Black renewal that is due out later this year.

However the new Figuarts body is also on display at the event on a number of Rider stages, with one for every Heisei era Kamen Rider with the exception of Kamen Rider Wizard. While this could easily be a proof of concept display, it’s exciting nonetheless to see the first glimpses of what could become Kamen Rider Hibiki and Kamen Rider Kiva Figuarts!

Also included are some effect parts displays, a look at the various prototype stages the figures go through and a further look at the new glowing stage.

UPDATE
Multiple new photos added, courtesy of Cybergundam Blog.

Keep checking Tokunation.com this weekend for more news from the event!
