Archives for September 2017

Merry early Christmas everyone!

In Japan, it is customary for families to have a piece of cake during the Christmas season and it’s nearly that time of year again. P-Bandai just started their ordering service for Kamen Rider Build and Uchuu Sentai Kyuranger themed Holliday cakes.

While most of us overseas won’t be able to enjoy the cake itself, it is noteworthy to mention that this is the only way you’ll be able to get this year’s Christmas themed roleplay items: with a Christmas Kyutama and Christmas Full Bottle being included along with their respective cakes.

Each cake will also include an appropriately themed topper with featuring super deformed versions of Kamen Rider Build Tank Rabbit Form and ShishiRed Orion. Both cakes will set you back 4,104 yen each and will be released December 2017 in time for the Holidays.

BEST MATCH!

For those of you that have been collecting Kamen Rider Build’s Bottle Change Rider gimmick figures, P-Bandai just announced the perfect accompanying piece.

They’ve just teased the release of something called the Snap Ride Builder, and from the looks of it: it’s a diorama piece that’s meant to replicate Kamen Rider Build’s transformation and form changing visuals. 

At the moment, there’s no word on when this piece will be released or for how much. All we know is that pre-orders are expected to go live October 13 2017 so be sure to check back with us then and we’ll provide any additional updates as they happen.

In case you missed it, some big news regarding next year’s Super Sentai show’s next year came out. Since then, the rumor mill’s begun churning.

Some unconfirmed rumors have appeared on Tokuinsider via J-Hero. Do note that at the time of this write-up, nothing has been confirmed by Toei or any official channels. So until we hear otherwise from them, please take this with an injection of salt. None the less, the rumors are as follows:

-Both Patoranger and Lupinranger will count as the 42nd Sentai.

-The two shows are both separate works, and the same show, with intersecting storylines that take place in the same world. The shows will air alternately from week to week, and when each reaches episode 20, the show will become one solidified story.

-The toy line will essentially be separate until this joining happens, with the 4th quarter toys able to combine and interact.

-One of the members of Lupinranger is actually an undercover spy for Patoranger. It is likely this cast member will be prominently featured on both shows.

Again, none of this has been 100% confirmed by Toei or another official channel. These rumors could likely be fake, so do take them with a grain of salt until we hear from a more reliable and official source.
