The master of machines has finally been released! A recent Tamashii Web Exclusive, it’s time for S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Drive Type Technic!

Type Technic is Drive’s 3rd basic form after Speed & Wild. And as the ”master of machines” its probably fitting that Technic is articulated like one. He’s a bit on the stiff side with some very odd choices in design, but still manages to look pretty great. Luckily this is also counterbalanced with the inclusion of some great accessories like the Door Ju as well as hands for Type Speed to hold it, the Fire Braver Tire with Ladder Expander, as well as the Shift Car and belt parts necessary for this tire. Overall this package is still as impressive as previous releases in the Drive line.

We’ve attached a selection of images of S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Drive Type Technic to this post but you can check out a full gallery of over 60 images! That along with an in depth review of pros and cons for this figure can be found by clicking “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post. Next up we take a look at S.H. Figuarts Heart Roidmude!

With the upcoming release of S.H.Figuarts Fire from Tokkei Winspector coming up in January, it’s only fitting that Bandai would tease release details for S.H.Figuarts Winspector Bikel and Walter as the perfect follow up!

The pair were teased in a recent Figure Oh magazine scan but details on exact price and whether the 2 will be packed int a 2-pack or not are a bit scarce. Originally the entire Winspector trio were shown off at Tamashii Summer Collection back in May. Stayed tuned to Tokunation, we’ll bring more updates on this release as it becomes available.

Well ahead of it’s release at the upcoming Tamashii Nations 2015 event (Oct 30th-Nov 1st) we have the first official reveal of the at show kamen rider exclusive. S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Proto-Drive!

Kamen Rider Proto-Drive is a release long awaited by fans of Kamen Rider Drive and it looks like the wait has been well worth it. Proto-Drive has a gorgeous matte black finish and comes in a very stylish box to set him apart from the other Drive related releases. Making this exclusive feel just a bit snazier. It also looks like Proto-Drive will have the exact same basic accessories as Drive Type Speed as well.

S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Proto-Drive will be available exclusively at Tamashii Nations 2015 for 4500 yen!

under Power Rangers

Some new details about the upcoming Power Rangers Dino Charge Halloween Special have come online, thanks to the good people at RangerCrew!

Circulated earlier today as rumors was a proposed list of event exclusives for the upcoming Tamashii Nations 2015 held October 30th through November 1st. Now thanks to a teaser image posted to the official event site we can now confirm the release of 2 exclusives for this event; S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Proto-Drive and the Burning Flame Effect Part!

Kamen Rider Proto-Drive is a slight retool and repaint of Kamen Rider Drive Type Speed and as such should be just as excellent a figure as that release. Accessories are currently unconfirmed at this time but it’s safe to assume Proto-Drive will include the same basic loadout as Type Speed. Proto-Drive will retail for 4500 yen at the event.

The other release for this event of interest to S.H. Figuarts collectors is the Burning Flame Dark Ver. Tamashii Effect! Perhaps the perfect companion to this years exclusive Proto-Drive (as well as the Shadow Trooper for non-toku fans) the Dark Flame will be made available at the event for 2500 yen.

under Ultraman

And rounding out the official images of the night is yet another new upcoming exclusive release, Ultra-Act Ultraman Mebius Phoenix Brave!

Mebius Phoenix Brave includes several sets of hands as well as the Knight Shoot beam effect as well as a Final Meteor effect piece! Like the rest of tonight’s reveals, Ultra-Act Mebius Phoenix Brave is set for a March 2016 release as a Tamashii Web Exclusive. Retail price is 5940 yen.

under Kamen Rider

Joining the official image dump for this evening is S.H. Figuarts Wolf Orphnoc from Kamen Rider Faiz!

Wolf Orphnoc rounds out the long wait list of Faiz figuarts that Bandai has shown off at various Tamashii event displays over the years. He’s also a little sparse on the accessory front though, including only 2 sets of hands but luckily his Violent Emotion legs from the Paradise Lost film as well!

S.H. Figuarts Wolf Orphnoc will be released as Tamashii Web Exclusive in March for 5940 yen.

under Kamen Rider

Well that was certainly a quick turn around! Just revealed this week and with an order page up, S.I.C. Kamen Rider OOO LaToraTah Combo official images have just been released!

As with all of the OOO S.I.C.’s we’ve seen thus far this figure takes advantage of the more animalistic aesthetic of the toy line and amps it up to 11. S.I.C. LaToraTah includes a pair of massive tiger claws to replace his arms as well as a pair of cheetah legs. You can seriously turn this rider into one hell of a beast.

S.I.C. Kamen Rider OOO LaToraTah will be released as a Tamashii Web Exclusive in March for 8100 yen!
