Some time ago, it was reported that Kraken Releasing had licensed the first season of GARO for release in North America.
Now at last, we have some new details on this project!
GARO: Collection 1 will be released on October 17, 2017. This release will cover the fist half of the season, and is priced at a modest $39.98 USD.
A prototype of the collection cover has also been released, although the art is subject to change.
Stay tuned to TokuNation as we keep you up to date on all GARO news!
Earlier today we had confirmation of this release and mere moments later official images began to circulate. S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Drive Type Special is officially on the way and looking great.
Type Special reuses much of the new parts created for the Dark Drive figuart that’s releasing in August. But we do see a new shift car, tire, head and chest to set this release apart. Unsurprisingly, Type Special does not come with the Signal Axe or Handle Sword in these photos. Those are only here to demonstrate that the figure can use them. 4 sets of hands and 4 Shift Cars round out the entire package of accessories sadly.
S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Drive Type Special will be release in November as a Tamashii Web Exclusive for 6264 yen. Get in touch with your preferred middleman or service now to reserve yours!
We’ve seen both on display recently at the Tamashii Nations Akiba showroom as well as the Tamashii Nations World Tour. Now both of these new figures are slated for actual release! Thanks to a handful of new magazine scans we can confirm both.
S.H. Figuarts kamen Rider Drive Type Special, Drives unique movie from from Surprise Future, is set for release in November. Type Special will be a Tamashii Web Exclusive and retail for 6264 yen.
S.H. Figuarts Dada or as he was originally known Agent #271, is an infamously weird villain from the original Ultraman TV series. While not as prolific as Baltan this Kaiju is definitely looking good as Bandai continues their productive line of Kaiju figuarts. Dada will be released in November for 7344 yen.
The latest team of Power Rangers are coming back on the air at last!
After an earlier-than-usual mid-season hiatus, Power Rangers Ninja Steel now as a date set for the second half of its run. New Ninja Steel episodes will begin airing Saturday, August 12th 2017 beginning at 12PM EST!
Sadly, no other details about upcoming episodes have been announced at time of writing. Stay tuned to TokuNation as we keep you up to date on all Ninja Steel News!
JOUCHAKU!
In case you missed it, Bandai announced the release of S.H.Figuarts Retsu Ichijoji, the human identity of Space Sheriff Gavan. P-Bandai’s launched the pre order page and we now have official stock photography of the photo in addition to price, and release date!
S.H.Figuarts Retsu Ichijoji includes an array of swappable hands, and a particle effect piece representing the transformation into Gavan. Retails for 6264 yen before middleman fees and overseas shipping, S.H.Figuarts Retsu Ichijoji will see release sometime in November 2017.
“Crush the Invader!”
It’s been some time since we’ve stepped back into the world of the dead, so it’s time to pay another visit to Kamen Rider Ghost. I’ve made my thoughts on this line known previously, so I was very hesitant to return to it again. But I’m giving it just one more go with S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Necrom!
Necrom completes the trio of riders from the series, so in at least that regard he’s satisfying. But many of the design flaws which plagued the first several releases of this line are still present. Shoulder designs, wrist cuffs, an obtrusive overcoat. That being said, Necrom does look rather good and I do so love seeing full groups of riders together. Though there is a severe lack of accessories with this figure. You can see it all in my full review linked below.

LEVEL UP!
P-Bandai has finally opened up the pre order page for the S.H.Figuarts Ex-Aid Double Action Gamer Level XX LR Set and with that, we now have a price, release date, and a plethora of new photos.
The S.H.Figuarts Ex-Aid Double Action Gamer XX LR set will be released in November, retailing for 13,368 yen. Accessories include the usual assortment of alternate hands, a pair of Gashacon Keyslashers, and an alternate shoulder piece.
Following up from yesterday’s trademark announcement, we now have a VERY early look at the 19th Heisei-Era Kamen Rider series- Kamen Rider Build!
Seen in silhouette on this catalog cover, Kamen Rider Build’s design features a heavy gear emblem on the chest- which may support the current rumor of a Construction-themed series.
We also have an apparent glimpse of the collectable gimmick for this series: a set of bottle-shaped devices tentatively referred to as Kamen Rider Capsules. However, exact details are unconfirmed at time of writing.
These newly-revealed Kamen Rider Build toys will be available beginning August 2017! Be sure to stop by our Ongoing Kamen Rider Build Discussion Thread to share your thoughts & fears about this upcoming series!
