Some official images have been released for the first merchandise for the upcoming Super Sentai series, Kishiryu Sentai RyuSoulger!

This is our best look yet at the series’ Mecha, KishiRyuOh! This Mecha starts off as Ryusoul Red’s personal KishiRyu partner, Tyramigo. Thanks to the power of a unique RyuSoul (the mysterious devices that power the RyuSoulgers, resembling dinosaur heads that transform into knights), Tyramigo is able to transform into the gigantic robotic knight KishiRyuOh! This DX release will include a special Red RyuSoul for collectors.

As will all Super Sentai Mecha, true strength comes from combination! Uniting with the other KishiRyu creates brand new forms for KishiRyuOh. By combining with Ryusoul Pink’s Ankylose and Ryusoul Blue’s TriKen they create the all-powerful KishiRyuOh Three Knights!

The DX KishiRyu can be purchased in a set for all Three Knights (priced at 7800 Yen) or separately (which would cost 2600 Yen apiece for Blue & Pink; 5200 Yen for Red). All are currently scheduled for release in March 2019!

Stay tuned to TokuNation for all RyuSoulger reveals!

ACCESS FLASH!

It’s hard to believe that Max Factory is now coming out with five Figmas from Studio Trigger’s SSSS.Gridman anime. The latest one is to join the list is the Initial Fighter recolor of the upcoming Figma SSSS.Gridman.

A Twitter post from the official SSSS.Gridman Twitter account reveals that this figure will come exclusively bundled with the DVD/Blu-Ray release of the anime so while a price point and release date have yet to be announced, we’re not expecting this to be cheap.

ULTRA LIVE!

With S.H.Figuarts Ultraman Victory due out in the near future, the question on everyone’s lips was “where’s Ginga?” And the answer to that question is not very far behind!

in a rather quick turn around, a recent update to the Tamashii Nation’s official web page for S.H.Figuarts Ultraman product, a teaser for S.H.Figuarts Ultraman Ginga was posted in addition to some new shots of Victory himself. Perfect for collectors looking to replace their Ultra-Act figure with something that’s more in scale with the new Figuarts product coming out. 

Details for his release and price point are not known as of this writing, but we’ll be sure to update you the minute we know when his production run will take place.

The latest round of magazine scans to hit the Internet has also given us a few hits at the future adventures of Kamen Rider Zi-O!

While traveling through the Mirror Universe of Kamen Rider Ryuki, our hero Sougo is startled to find a second Kamen Rider Zi-O. This plus the sudden appearance of Another Ryuga may be too much for the King of Time to handle!

To emerge victorious, Zi-O activates a new model of RiderWatch to become Zi-O II! This form is far stronger than any previous Rider Time combinations.

But once that power is unlocked, another time-shifted Kamen Rider enters the fray!
This is our first look at Kamen Rider Kikai– a golden cyborg hailing from the year 2121. Kikai’s powers will soon be tapped by Kamen Rider Woz adding yet another Futuring ability to his arsenal.

Definitely some interesting times on the horizon for Kamen Rider Zi-O! Stay tuned to TokuNation for all Kamen Rider reveals!

The first proper round of magazine scans for the 43rd Super Sentai Series has finally been released, giving us the best look yet at Kishiryu Sentai RyuSoulger!

For the first time we have learned some information about the Ryusoulgers themselves! The heroes are known as Knights in-universe and each one has been given a brief character bio:

*Ryusoul Red is The Brave Knight and is described as “a hot-blooded Leader.”
*Ryusoul Blue is The Wise Knight who thinks twice before making a single move.
*Ryusoul Pink is The Robust Knight and the strongest member of the team.
*Ryusoul Green is The Gale Knight who uses speedy attacks to win battles.
*Ryusoul Black is The Majestic Knight referred to as having splendid techniques.

But the most remarkable member of the RyuSoulger team is Tyramigo, Ryusoul Red’s personal Kishiryu partner. Tyramigo’s power is unlocked when he transforms into the Giant Mecha Knight, KishiRyuOh! Tyramigo gains extra powers from the other Kishiryus shown combining with Ryusoul Blue’s TriKen and Ryusoul Pink’s Ankylose to form KishiRyuOh Three Knights!

While the RyuSoulgers can use RyuSouls to power their weapons and attacks, they will confront enemies using a corrupted form of this ability called MinuSouls. In these scans, the RyuSoulgers are shown fighting off a squadron of enemy soldiers- known as the Dorun.

The RyuSoulgers are scheduled to make their first appearance in the Super Sentai Strongest Battle event, and the series itself is currently scheduled to begin on March 17 2019! Stay tuned to TokuNation as we keep you up to date on all RyuSoulger reveals!

A new face has been revealed for the upcoming Super Sentai series Kishiryu Sentai RyuSoulger!

This is the mysterious purple Knight first glimpsed in a preview for the crossover event Super Sentai: Strongest Battle.

The character in question is known as Gaizorg (official spelling may vary). At the moment the story of this new character remains unknown at time of writing- they may be a fellow hero to the RyoSoulgers, an antagonist who uses similar powers, or something entirely unknown.

The face behind the armor remains a mystery as well, but Gaizorg will be voiced by tokusatsu alumni Tomokazu Seki (perhaps best known as the voice of the Mobirates in Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger.)

Be sure to join in our Ongoing RyuSoulger Rumor Thread to share your thoughts and fears about this new Knight!

“Why?! Why did you kill Shizuka?!”

Once an orphan, Ginga Suzumura became an inheritor of the Zero armor before his new life was shattered by the Dark Knight Kiba. The loss of his loved ones gave Ginga, now known as Rei, the determination needed to master the Zero armor, and seek revenge. Mistaking Garo for the murderous Kiba, the two heroes clashed before uniting to defeat the dark knight. Walking a lonely path no more, Bandai has given Rei the treatment he deserves as S.H. Figuarts Shinkocchou Seihou Zero! 

Seihou Zero joins the previously released Garo as a much needed update for a character who’s deserved it for so long. For the first time in over a decade this character has been truly recreated in figure form. Zero brings to the line his stylish silver paint job, but also the deadly dual Ginroken. These curve blades can also combine into the massive Ginga Ginroken! A fantastic companion piece to Seihou Garo, we can only hope that more Makai Knights are on the way.

Check out our full 70 image gallery of S.H. Figuar0ts Shinkocchou Seihou Zero after the jump. Just click “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” to be taken to the full gallery and review. Next time we’re paying a visit to the Game Master once again!
