The single for the opening theme of Kamen Rider Gaim is on track to be released on December 11th 2013.

To tied us over in the meantime, a full version of the theme song was heard and recorded by Thunder025 of Youtube.

The audio quality isn’t the best, but enough that we can hear the song clearly, check it out in the link below and don’t forget to support the official release!

According to the Rising Sun Tokusatsu blog Kamen Rider Gaim is showing remarkable sales figures for a brand-new show and is on track to become the best financially-performing Rider series.

Currently “Kamen Rider OOO” holds the record for greatest sales but Gaim may well break the previous numbers. Sadly, it seems the ratings for Gaim are still low- continuing a downward trend in tokusatsu programming in recent years.

After magazine scans teased his impending release, SH Figuarts Kamen Rider Imperer has now been officially revealed on Tamashii Web’s page!

In Pacific Rim, the Kaiju Leatherback is a massive category IV sized creature that wreaks havoc on the heroic Jaegers and the whole of Hong Kong.

 

The designers at NECA accurately capture the look and bulk of Leatherback with the figure released in Series 2 of their Pacific Rim line.

 

The figure stands at approximately 8 inches with it’s ‘hunched’ posture and has a surprising 24 points of articulation. This includes individually moving claws, ankles, and a hinged jaw. Leatherback weighs in at a ridiculous 1 pound, 6.5 ounces, over 3 times the weight of Gipsy Danger. Despite the weight and size of each arm, they can still be posed in a variety of ways (given your figure has tight joints).

Shout! Factory has reported a production delay in the Power Rangers Legacy boxset, due to a potential quality issue in the helmet design.

 

Previously scheduled for release in December, the new official release date is January 2nd, 2014.

 

Fans will just have to wait a bit longer to own these first twenty years on DVD.

The man who stayed on top of everything toy related for Power Rangers Super Megaforce, our friend raz (follow him on Twitter @razzle1337), has been hounding Toys’R’Us computers for weeks. He delivered the controversial list of items a few weeks back, and noted there was a listing for Super Megaforce Black Friday Pallet.

 

According to a tweet of his this afternoon, that pallet has arrived in the Southern California and Texas distribution centers for Toys’R’Us, with a few scattered throughout the rest of the country (except the east coast, which shows a count of negative 60?). The online website is also apparently showing some stock of Legendary Megazords, but at this time, cannot be located on the site itself (this information comes from stock searches at Toys’R’Us computers). Most stores have put in orders for Legendary Morphers, Battle Gear, and 6.5″ Figures.

 

We could be anywhere from days to a week or two away from the retail release of Power Rangers Super Megaforce, which is the US adaption of Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger, which features the Power Rangers turning in to all previous Power Rangers to defeat the bad guys.

 

Are you excited yet? Stay tuned for more details!
