With an impending release this month Bandai has just released official images for a pair of upcoming Kamen Rider Drive Releases!

The DX Tridoron Shift Car allows Drive to access his final form, Type Tridoron! This massively powerful form can be controlled by Shinnosuke or by Mr Belt, marked by the visor turning red when he does. The DX toy of this shift car of course features it’s own electronic light and sound gimmick as well as compatibility with the DX Drive Driver! And while the Kamen Rider Drive Type Tridoron vinyl may not be that detailed, it does give us one of the finest looks we’ve had at this suit before it’s official debut.

Both of these items will be released this month, for 2700 yen & 864 yen respectively!

With an impending release this month Bandai has just released official images for the upcoming DX Otomonin Surfermaru from Shuriken Sentai Ninninger!

Surfermaru follows in the footsteps of Paonmaru & UFOmaru. A new mini-robot in the style of Shinobimaru with an accompanying vehicle to combine with! When combined with Shurikenjin you can create Shurikenjin Surfer, or alternatively you can create Bison King Surfer!

DX Surfermaru will be release this month and retails for 2800 yen!

Mayday, mayday, SOS!

Continuing what has become a hot streak of Metal Hero related products from Bandai recently is a trio that’s sure to excite many fans! Revealed today at the Tamashii Nations Summer Collection show is the trio of heroes from Tokkei Winspector! S.H. Figuarts Ryoma, Walter, & Bichael look absolutely magnificent. With this trio Bandai continues to narrow the gap of Metal Heroes they’ve yet to release!

In a bit of awesome coincidence something else related to this trio happened this week you may not have been aware of. A new fansub group, Weeaboo Shogun has arrived on the scene with a magnificent show that has never been subbed before, Tokkei Winspector! They’ve already released the first 2 episodes off the series with links to download on their blog, I very much encourage you to check them out.

This is probably one of the more amazing coincidences that could have happened, and for me personally it’s a double whammy of a dream come true.

The latest round of magazine scans also gives us a close look at the newest Otomo-Nin: SurferMaru!

This new Mecha is a purple submarine capable of transforming into a surfing robot. Like previous Otomo-Nin, SurferMaru can combine with ShurikenJin- creating the ShurikenJin Surfer configuration!

The origins of this new Otomo-Nin are unknown at the time of writing. Stay tuned to TokuNation as we keep you up to date on all Ninninger news!

Previously spotted on set  while filming has been underway for the Kamen Rider Drive Surprise Future movie, we finally have a full reveal of the rider who commands the NEX Tridoron!

Kamen Rider Dark Drive Type Next is as the name implies an evil rider from the future, the year 2035! Dark Drive uses his powers to help Roidmudes attack humans and has the Shift Next Builder, Next Hunter, and Next Decotraveler Cars at his disposal!

Dark Drive’s personal Shift Car Next/Special allows for two separate forms to be used. Will Dark Drive be redeemed and use Type Special to save the past and the future? Or will the present Drive be able to harness it’s power? Find out this summer!

After a number of false starts and fake leads, it seems we finally have a name for the 17th Heisei Kamen Rider!

Toei has filed a trademark for the name Kamen Rider Ghost! The new series and toyline will replace Kamen Rider Drive on shelves & airwaves later this year.

Sadly, no other information about Kamen Rider Ghost is available at the time of writing. Feel free to join in our ongoing Kamen Rider Rumor Discussion to share your hopes, dreams and fears about this upcoming project!

under Kamen Rider

A new round of magazine scans has been posted online, giving us our first official look at Kamen Rider Drive’s final form- Type Tridoron!

Type Tridoron is unlocked using the Shift Tridoron Shift Car and allows Drive to fuse multiple Shift Cars with a new ability called Tire Kakimazeru or Mix-Up.

In addition the scans show a new form for the villainous Roimudes– a modified golden frame known as Cho Shinkatai (meaning Super-Evolved Body).

Things are taking a strange turn during Kamen Rider Drive’s final laps! Stay tuned to TokuNation as we keep you up to date on all Drive details!
