S.H.Figuarts has come a long way since beginning with the First and the Next Riders.
Kamen Rider kabuto was one of the first Heisei Riders to be released in the line, and sometime ago it was announced that he will be receiving a new Renewal figure. Recent magazine scans previewed this figure, comparing the old with the new.
The figure on the left is the 2.0 release while the toy on the right is the one that’s currently out.
Further release details to be announced.
It may seem a bit early but an image of a prototype S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Gaim Orange Arms has been discovered on 2chan! It will apparently be on display to the public at Tamashii Nations 2013 this November 1-3!
We’ll bring you more details as they become available about the future release of this figure!
Despite earlier reports of cancellation due to disappointing sales, Shout! Factory has put up a new order page for the final volume of VR Troopers.
Season 2, Volume 2 (containing the final 20 episodes of this memorable series) is available for 19.93 before shipping and will be available January 14, 2014.
At the moment this rumor is unconfirmed but it would appear we may know the identity of Kyoryu Silver from Zyuden Sentai Kyoryuger! As always with a rumor of this nature, take it with a grain of salt as it is still unconfirmed.
MAJOR SPOILERS AAt HEAD, READ AT YOUR OWN RISK!The story will take place around episode 36 and detail what happened during Torin’s time on Earth long ago when
If true this is one major shake up for the series! Truth or rumor, let us know what you think in the comments!

Tamashii Nations[/URL] has just posted a preview of its offerings for February 2014, and among them is S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Agito Shining Form and a renewal version Ultra Act Ultraman Leo!
Look forward to more information about these mass release figures soon, but in the meantime check out the images after the jump!
Apparently Hulu didn’t get the message of the order of episodes airing of this season’s Power Rangers Megaforce because they jumped the gun. While you’re still unable to view “Raising Spirits” – the Halloween episode that aired this last weekend – the episode slated to air THIS weekend, “The Human Factor”, is currently available on Hulu.
This episode features the premiere of Metal Alice, the robot Vrak creates to help him destroy the Power Rangers and conquer the Earth. On top of a ton of beautiful original footage of Vrak and Metal Alice, we have a great episode as Robo Knight has to make the ultimate decision – if he’s to protect the Earth, wouldn’t removing the very humans that pollute it be logical?

Go Go Megaforce!
After a series of half scans, shrouded images, and speculation about new riders we finally have full scans of the Kamen Rider Gaim toy catalogue!
These images don’t show us anything we haven’t seen before, bu they’re bigger and better images of what we’ve seen previously. These scans introduced us to Kurokage & Tuliphopper, Gritton & Dandiliner, Shin Zangetsu, Rain, Do-Q, O-Gi, Genesis Driver and Bow, Energy Lock Seeds, and so much more!!

The first S.H. Figuart from Zyuden Sentai Kyoryuger is out and it’s time to brave in! Kyoryu Red is the first of at least the 6 main Kyoryugers slated for release. So far he’s the only one that’s a mass retail release as well. Daigo includes his GabuRevolver, GaburiCalibur, 1 generic Zyudenchi, his Armed On arm and Gabutyra Fang, as well as 3 extra sets of hands. Perhaps the only downside of this figure is that it does not include a combined GaburiCannon nor can the Revolver & Calibur be combined to form it.
This figure also happens to be very compatible with Bandai’s previously released Deinochaser & Kyoryu Red “DX” set. The Chaser is in almost perfect scale with SHF Kyoryu Red making for some great display options, especially since there is no Figuarts equivalent of this bike currently.

This figure has been long awaited by both Super Sentai & Power Rangers fans but the time is finally here. Today’s gallery is of S.H. Figuarts Kiba Ranger from Gosei Sentai Dairanger or for Power Rangers fans the original White Ranger!
Kiba Ranger is none other than the young boy Kou, grown to adult size after using his Aura Changer. His trusty partner and weapon the Byako Shinken (Saba) is included with holstered and extended blades. And though the choice of hands for this figure is limited this Japanese market Tamashii Web Exclusive release includes an alternate chest plate. This represents Kiba Ranger’s temporary stint as the cancelled “4th member” of the Akibarangers from Hikonin Sentai Akibaranger Season 2 and it’s alternate timeline where the Dairangers never existed!
Ironically the same young actor who played a young Burai/Dragon Ranger in Zyuranger also happened to play Kou in Dairanger. Thus sharing a rather odd connection to Tommy Oliver and his dual roles as both the Green and White Rangers in Power Rangers!

If you remember, our own administrator Sentai Tamashii was able to sit down and interview the folks with Bandai of America at this year’s NYCC. If you haven’t read the TWO interviews we got to do, you can find them here:

Click here for the follow-up interview!
Friend to the site, board member, and Internet Personality Vangelus, also sat down with Greg Mitchell (marketing) from Bandai of America and talked about Power Rangers and other Bandai properties. In the interview, they “hypothetically” discuss the “third part of the original Megazord that combined with all three” and that they’re “looking in to it”. That would be Titanus the carrier-zord, who when combined with the Megazord and Dragonzord became the Ultrazord.
