Let’s Watch Wednesdays Week 15 Kamen Rider Den-O 40-42

Posted on September 18, 2014 at 4:07 am by Den-O under Kamen Rider, TokuNation, TokuNation Spotlights

“Take Care of Deneb.”

Let’s Watch Wednesdays returns to Kamen Rider Den-O but with the loss of one of our heroes. In case you haven’t noticed we’re rocking a Thursday Edition this week. Techincal difficulties on my end being to blame. But we’ll be back to normal next week.

Yuuto paid the ultimate price when his past self was erased from time. Or so it would seem. The Zeronos cards aren’t all bad after all. While the memories of a person disappear, they are protected from the ravages of time. But with no more green cards left, Yuuto must now resort to the red cards and an even greater price must be paid as well. The memories Yuuto’s made in the present will now cease to be. His past no longer exists, and now neither does his present, nor would it seem does his future. But one thing is certain, Zeronos Zero Form is a power to be reckoned with!

Den-O Trivia #15
It’s time to see if you were paying attention again! This week the show changed up something most people skip right past, the opening! That’s right, the usual rendition of Climax Jump you’re used to was replaced this week by Climax Jump Den-Liner Form. A rendition of the song sung by our lovable Imagin! Episode 40 is the first instance where the opening theme changes and the first where clips from the episode you’re about to watch are inserted into the montage.

Of course this isn’t the only alternate version of Climax Jump out there. In fact when Climax Jump was released as a Single there were 5 versions of the song just on that disc. But there are multiple other versions of the song each tied to a particular form of Den-O as well as several more official remixes of it. I actually know of at least 12 more versions of the song out there, bringing the total close to 20, all of which I have of course.

Power Rangers Super Megaforce 5 Inch Lightspeed Rescue Red Ranger Gallery & Review

Posted on September 15, 2014 at 11:06 pm by Chris under Power Rangers

When trouble rears its ugly head, you’d better make it a Lightspeed Rescue!

Continuing the galleries of the Power Rangers Super Megaforce 5″ Figures, we’re proud to bring you another legendary Red Ranger gallery. Having surged in popularity in recent years his figure is desired by many and found by few. That’s right – we’re talking about the Lightspeed Rescue Red Ranger, Carter Grayson.

Releasing in Wave 4 of the 5″ figure assortment, this figure is actually harder to find than you might expect – a lot of stores never got Wave 4 and if they did, you had one (at most maybe two) chances at grabbing the figure as he was packaged one per case.

To see all 32 images of this figure and to read the review, simply click here! And stay tuned to TokuNation.com for more upcoming Power Rangers Super Megaforce 5 Inch Figures – including an AWESOME looking gallery coming of the Titanium Ranger and the gallery everyone has been waiting for, the Zeo Gold Ranger!

A special thanks to Fury Diamond of RangerCrew.com for helping obtain this figure!

S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Diend Gallery and Review by ryan

Posted on September 15, 2014 at 6:51 pm by Chris under Kamen Rider

Just because Kamen Rider Decade is years and years old now doesn’t mean we don’t still have some cards up our sleeve! We are very happy to present to you a review and a gallery from an older figure from the S.H. Figuarts line, which is none other than Kamen Rider Diend. Courtesy of our photo contributor ryan, we have 26 images to share with you of this character from one of the popular (and debated) Kamen Rider series!

But just like every figure out there this one has some flaws. What are they, and does ryan think this older figure compares at all to the newer body styles found in the S.H. Figuarts being released today? Click here for the full gallery and review, then share your thoughts on Kamen Rider Diend!

PInecone, Walnut, & SId Lock Seed Video Demos

Posted on September 14, 2014 at 9:15 pm by Kiryu under Kamen Rider

A fresh batch of Premium Bandai Lock Seeds have just hit the market, and the first video demos of the DX Pinecone, Walnut, and promotional Sid Lock Seeds have hit Youtube, courtesy of a Japanese toy reviewer.

More interestingly is that the video showcases just how the SId’s personal Lock Seed works.

It’s important to note that the Seed was not designed to work in any of line’s Roleplay toys. Instead, the Seed functions exactly like a Gashapon one and contains quotes from the Lock Dealer himself.

Happy Birthday Kickback!

Posted on September 13, 2014 at 1:13 pm by Den-O under General Tokusatsu News, TokuNation, TokuNation Spotlights

And you thought VR Troopers, Syber-Squad, & Power Rangers anniversaries were the only milestones this month!

The one and only Kickback’s birthday is today! Of course Kickback AKA Chris is the the founder of TokuNation itself and the man behind everything since it’s inception. A lot of you know him from the TFW2005 forums and his work in the Transformer fandom over  the last decade. But luckily he jumped ship and created this place for all of us to enjoy and share! It’s safe to say that a lot of us wouldn’t have a welcoming environment to discuss our spandex heroes, bug men, giant monsters, toys, and everything else in between without Kickback’s hard work for us over the last 3 years.

So please take a moment out of your day to wish one of my best friends in the world, Kickback, a happy birthday! TokuNation is what it is thanks to you buddy!

Celebrate 20 Years of Superhuman Samurai Syber-Squad

Posted on September 12, 2014 at 9:15 pm by Den-O under General Tokusatsu News

With a recent anniversary for VR Troopers, you may not have realized another series premiered only a week later in 1994. Celebrating it’s 20th Anniversary today is Superhuman Samurai Syber-Squad! Unlike the majority of other 90’s tokusatsu this series was not a Saban production nor was it adapted from a Toei series. Syber-Squad was brought to the US by DIC-Entertainment and was in fact adapted from the Tsuburaya series Denkou Choujin Gridman. The focus was on our main hero Sam Collins who transformed into the digital hero Servo, and along with Team Samurai would enter the digital world to fight the forces of the evil Kilokahn Artificial Intelligence.

Though the series never quite had the staying power of it’s Saban competitors Syber-Squad actually still has a decent following today. The original Japanese releases of the DX toy line have become just as expensive if not more so than many Sentai toys released in the same era. And even items from the American counterpart toy line produced by Playmates can still command a high price on the secondary market. Just last year Mill Creek Entertainment released the entirety of Superhuman Samurai Syber-Squad on two DVD sets that can be easily found around the $10 range now.

Take a moment to reflect on Syber-Squad and it’s impact on the western toku market, and while you’re at it check out some previous galleries we’ve posted relating to the series:
