Released originally as a Tamashii Web Shop Exclusive in September of 2011, the Greeed Kazari figure from the Kamen Rider OOO series is hard to come by these days without being previously owned – “new/sealed” versions of this figure seem to be non-existent.  Luckily, one individual who does own this figure is our very own photo and content staff member ryan – and he has taken a gallery of images to share with you of this great figure!

 

The figure, coming with the usual hand accessories, also comes with some rather different accessories than you might be used to.

 

or on the link to check out the full gallery of this different S.H. Figuarts figure!  And be sure to let ryan know how much his pictures rock!

The sentai for train and giant robot enthusiasts alike has arrived, Ressha Sentai Tokkyuger!

Watch this space for updates!

Update: New unconfirmed information via http://toro.2ch.net/test/read.cgi/sfx/1386108250/241″][/URL]

Ressha Sentai Tokkyuger, Premiering on February 16th 2014!

The Story:

To protect the route of light, the “Rainbow Line” from the “Shadow” of evil, the 38th Super Sentai starts to run!
Equipment:

TokkyuChanger- The Tokkyuger’s henshin device (brace). Each ranger transforms by loading a different TokkyuReshaar into the Changer.

TokkyuIchigo- RedReshaar
TokkyuNigo- BlueReshaar
TokkyuSango- YellowReshaar
TokkyuYongo- GreenReshaar
TokkyuGogo- PinkReshaar
TokyuuBuckle and Rainbow Pass
Common Weaponry:

TokyuuBlaster- transforms from “Uchimasu Mode” (Gun) into “Kirimasu Mode” (Sword)
Personal Weaponry:

Red- Rail Slasher
Blue- Form Trigger
Yellow- Shingou Hammer
Green- Tekkyou Claw
Pink- Tunnel Axe

All 5 weapons combine into the Renketsu Bazooka
Robo:

TokkyuOh- armed with the “FumikiriKen”

Previously we knew the Rangers would be designated as Tokkyu 1, Tokkyu 2, Tokkyu 3, Tokkyu 4, Tokkyu 5.

Of course the motif of this series is trains and as such the Tokkyugers are said to use electronic train tickets for their henshins, weapons, and mecha. It’s also currently speculated that they must “refresh” their cards with “funds” like real cards/tickets in order to continue using them.

UPDATE 2: We now have a full reveal and catalogue scans via HeroTaku[/URL]! Thanks to member Kamen Blitz for sharing!

Jungle Beast, Spirit Unleashed!

 

One of the more interesting products released during the run of Power Rangers was the short-lived MicroZords series.  One of those figures was none other than the Jungle Pride Megazord, featuring small versions of the Jungle Fury Zords that could combine and form the Jungle Pride Megazord!

 

Photo contributor conundrum took 23 stunning high resolution images of this small but cool figure.

It’s beginning to look a lot like several holidays as Tokunation starts another week of Let’s Watch Wednesdays with Kamen Rider Blade!

Joker. With his true name revealed, Hajime’s identity is finally coming to light. The 53rd Undead becomes stronger with every sealing so he waits for all his enemies to finish each other. Meanwhile the mighty Caucasus Undead King has appeared just as the monstrosities known as Trials wreak havoc. Unsealable beasts, twisted fusions of man and Undead….

Be sure as always to post away in our weekly discussion thread posted here.[/URL] Every post you make could win you an S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Blade! And if you don’t win that then you have a chance to win another secret prize! Winners will be announced at the end of the series.

So let’s watch Kamen Rider Blade 31-33!

We threatened our photo contributor Jmann with sticks, stones, and other nasty things if he didn’t put up some pictures of something.  So he responded with this pretty awesome gallery of Kamen Rider Gills from one of his favorite series Kamen Rider Agito.

 

Check out the full gallery by or by simply clicking the link at the bottom right of this page!

 

What do you think?  Should we keep Jmann around?  Give him some love or give him the ax!

Thanks to our forum member irsyadsway we can tell you that a lesser known tokusatsu known as Ryujin Mabuyer is going to be adapted in Malaysia!

Ryujin Mabuyer follows the adventures of a local hero of the Okinawa Prefecture. A local hero is a tokusatsu hero who is based around a certain region or a certain prefecture in Japan, and tends to be based off local mythologies and industries. They are not as big as Super Sentai, Kamen Rider, Metal Heroes, or Ultraman, but they do have dedicated followings.

Ryujin Mabuyer last saw a theatrical release in 2012, but aired 39 episodes spanning from 2008 to 2010. The Malaysian adaption will be filmed in Japan with many new scenes being filmed, and star a Malaysian cast. The series will air in 2014 at 7:30pm on TV3.

They just won’t stop coming! Thanks again to Fury Diamond and his blog Samurai Cast Blog we have images of the upcoming Super Megaforce Zeo Racer Zord! This zord is completely new for Power Rangers Super Megaforce, as it had no counterpart in its Super Sentai counterpart, Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger.

The Zeo Racer Zord has two modes – a race car mode and what is best described as a “standing gun mode”. The pieces can combine with the Legendary Megazord to create a Power Rangers Zeo inspired combination.

There is no evidence to believe this will be featured in the actual show of Power Rangers Super Megaforce, as this is again a completely 100% Bandai of America creation.

Check out the original listing by clicking here.

Are you adding this to your list?

It’s not quite a helmet, but it’s still bound to be fun! We have the first images of the upcoming Power Rangers Super Megaforce Red & Green Ranger Masks thanks to ToyWiz via Amazon.com as well as Fury Diamond and his blog Samurai Cast Blog!

These look very similar to the ones seen in the Hero Sets, but with a visor as opposed to no visor.

Admit it. You kind of want one.
