“You boys, never stood a chance against me.”

After devastating Mars, the extraterrestrial being Evolt came to Earth seeking to repeat this tragedy. To rebuild his arsenal & powers and become a complete being once again, he would play the long game of manipulating humans to do his bidding. Helping to create Faust, the Rider System, and taking on the guise of Blood Stalk, Evolt has meddled in human affairs for a over a decade. Now, he can also meddle with your collection thanks to the release of S.H. Figuarts Blood Stalk! 

Blood Stalk sees the return of the well received mold created for Night Rogue with a few key changes to give Stalk his trademark Cobra theme. As ever this mold is nicely poseable and full of personality. But it’s the accessories that really sell it. Thanks to a full compliment of hands, a functional Transteam Rifle, and some new Steam Effect parts. This mold will undoubtedly return at least a third time for Mad Rogue and I eagerly await it!

For now though, you can check out our full review and complete 80 image gallery of S.H. Figuarts Blood Stalk after the jump by clicking “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post. We’ll be back later this week with a review of S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Lazer Turbo!

While they never officially announced the the Power Rangers Zeo Legacy Super Zeo Gems, the listing was discovered (and shared) with us via Amazon.com earlier this year. Today on Twitter, Bandai America responded to @PowerRangerTalk stating: “Yeah this one unfortunately isn’t happening anymore. Again, with the changeover a lot of things have been thrown into limbo/taken off the table. The good news is, there are still a few items up our sleeve that we haven’t announced yet that we’re extremely excited about!”.

However, they do have some surprises left in store for the Power Rangers line before Hasbro takes over in Spring 2019. Stay tuned for more news and information from Bandai America here at TokuNation!

After some back and forth with teases, silhouettes, and a plethora of rumors, we may finally have our very first look at Kamen Rider Zi-O!

Thanks to a tweet from @therealmatthunt we have what appears to be Zi-O sporting a pretty radical time & letters/characters based design. The images comes courtesy of a brand new Buttobasoul advert. And while it isn’t a full body shot, yet, it certainly seems to be our first legitimate look at the character.
