“I told you my name isn’t Bike!”

Here at TokuNation we’ve been slowly going back through our catalog of past galleries, picking out those that didn’t get the proper treatment the first time around, and giving them our gallery 2.0 treatment. And we’ve finally begun to pick up steam with our look back at Tokumei Sentai Go-Busters! Earlier this month we brought you a 2.0 gallery of S.H. Figuarts Red Buster, today we take a look at Hiromu’s trusted partner (and mode of transportation) S.H. Figuarts Nick Cheeda!

Nick came out a few years ago after Red Buster but was released as a Tamashii Web Exclusive. In fact the entire remainder of the released Go-Busters were distributed like this. Nick however was the first Buddyroid release, so he’s completely different from the other Busters. And as with many Web Exclusives of the time, Nick doesn’t include much other than an extra pair of hands and his Rear Wheel Guns, but really that’s all he needs. While the mold isn’t perfect, if you’re a fan of Go-Busters, he’s the perfect addition to your display.

We’ve attached a selection of images to this post but you can view the full 40 image gallery after the jump by clicking “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums”. Our 2.0 galleries from Tokumei Sentai Go-Busters will continue next time with a renewed look at S.H. Figuarts Blue Buster!

Tomorrow starts a brand new season of Power Rangers! The new season, titled Power Rangers Dino Supercharge, is the second season of Power Rangers Dino Charge. In our season finale last year, the Red Ranger defeated Sledge and sent him to his presumed end in the side of a mountain. But it looks like not everyone on the ship perished at the hands of the mountain – the villainous Heckyl, and his alter-ego Snide, have not only managed to survive but take control of the remaining monsters! And now they make their move on our heroes, who have split up following the season finale.

The premiere of Power Rangers Dino Supercharge airs tomorrow (Saturday, January 30th) on Nickelodeon! Check local listings for exact times.

Check out this video trailer below, encoded in part thanks to the people behind RangerCrew, as well as nine preview images courtesy both PowerRangers.com as well as The Power Force. Get your Dino Chargers ready to Unleash the Power and watch the season premiere of Power Rangers Dino Supercharge!

A teaser trailer for the upcoming anniversary project Superhero Year: Kamen Rider 1 has been posted online! The centerpiece of this teaser is Kamen Rider #1, Hiroshi Fujioka himself, performing the iconic Henshin! sequence.

According to recent interviews, Fujioka has been heavily involved with the pre-production of this new film, spending 5 months helping to develop the script. The films’ official head writer is Toshiki Inoue, a veteran of multiple tokusatsu projects. Meanwhile the film will be directed by Osamu Kaneda (whose resume includes both Superhero Taisen projects and Kamen Rider Gaim: Gaiden).

The revived Kamen Rider 1 premieres in theaters on March 26, 2016! Feel free to join in our Ongoing Discussion Thread to share your thoughts and fears about this exciting new movie!

The latest round of magazine scans offers fans a plethora of new details about the future of Kamen Rider Ghost!

Items of note include:

*The next spirit to join Ghosts’ arsenal is the Himiko Damashii! The shaman queen brings a new level of power to Takeru.

*Kamen Rider Necrom is shown in great detail, having already obtained two Damashii for his personal use: Grimm and Sanzo!

*Furthermore, the Necrom Damashii apparently has the power to POSESS other Riders! We see a few images of Kamen Rider Specter Necrom Damashii attacking Kamen Rider Ghost.

*Last but certainly not least we see three more Legendary Rider Damashiis! In Toei’s special anniversary Net Movies, Ghost & Specter will unlock the powers of OOO, Wizard and Fourze!

Definitely some exciting times ahead for Kamen Rider Ghost! Stay tuned to TokuNation as we keep you up to date on all ghostly details.

With the 40th Super Sentai Series drawing closer and closer, a new round of magazine scans offers us even more information about the heroes of Dobutsu Sentai Zyuohger!

*The four Rangers of Zyuland (Sera, Leo, Tusk & Amu) along with Yamato of Earth are drawn together by an artifact know as the Link Cube– a device that opens the connection between their worlds. The Link Cube identifies true Champions and gives this team the power to henshin, and also allows the Zyumans to obtain human form (athough they retain some animal characteristics).

*Each Zyuohger has a power-up form known as Instinct Awakened that brings out their animal spirits! ZyuohEagle gains wings, ZyuohTiger & ZyuohLion both grow large claws, ZyuohShark gains fins and ZyuohElephant develops gigantic feet.

*The scans provide several excellent shots of ZyuohKing in combat, and demonstrate future combinations with the various Zyuoh Cubes.

*This seasons’ method of monster-growing is revealed as well: The female Deathgalian, Nalia inserts an item called a Continue Medal into a defeated warrior, activating the second round of the Blood Game.

Dobutsu Sentai Zyuohger premieres February 14 2016! Definitely some wild times ahead for Super Sentai!
