Some clearer images of the recent Super Sentai merchandise catalog have been released online, giving fans some extra details about the further adventures of Kishiryu Sentai RyuSoulger!

With the power of the claw-like Max RyuSoul Charger weapon, RyuSoul Red obtains new battle armor and the ability to combine the powers of RyuSouls.

The newest Kishiryu is revealed in full- the icy Pteradon with two unique configurations: the egg-like Pit Mode and the flying Mecha, YokuRyuOh! Pteradon will also include a new Kou RyuSoul– the HieHie Soul which grants special armor and lets the user perform ice-based attacks.

Pteradon can combine with Tyramigo and MosaRex to form the strongest combination to date: King KishiRyuOh!

Following the exciting initial reveal we now have some full catalog scans for the first Kamen Rider of the Reiwa Era– Kamen Rider Zero-One!

Here is everything we know about this new Kamen Rider thus far:

*The main gimmick for this series involves memory-card based devices known as Progrise Keys which are inserted into Drivers and weapons to unlock new abilities. Thus far all Progrise Keys seem to be based on animals.

*Kamen Rider Zero-One will henshin using the Rising Hopper Progrise Key in his unique Driver- tentatively known as the Hiden Zero-One Driver. Additional forms to be used by Zero-One include Flying Falcon, Biting Shark, Flaming Tiger, Freezing Bear and a massive armored drone form called Breaking Mammoth.

*Zero-One’s motorcycle converts into his phone- a device called the RisePhone. Additional Progrise Keys will be carried in Zero-One’s belt attachment, the Progrise Key Connector.

Once again we will have MULTIPLE Kamen Riders in this series!

*Kamen Rider Vulcan is armed with a new gun-based Driver- the AIMS Shot Riser. Vulcan’s signature Progrise Key is Shooting Wolf and he has access to a separate form called Punching Kong.

*Kamen Rider Valkyrie also uses the AIMS Shot Riser and has two unique Progrise Keys- Rushing Cheetah & Lightning Hornet.

*Kamen Rider Horobi uses the Sting Scorpion Progrise Key and has a unique Driver- the Force Riser.

Each Rider has a signature weapon based on an attache case: Zero-One uses the sword-like Attache Calibur, Vulcan uses the Attache Shotgun and Horobi uses the Attache Arrow. Another weapon called the Authorise Buster is also detailed- this is an axe that can transform into a gun and may be available to multiple Riders.

Finally, we have some quick teasers for the first Rider Upgrades! Using a new model of Progrisse Keys, Zero-One will unlock the Shining Hopper form while Vulcan activates Assault Wolf.

So far Kamen Rider Zero-One is shaping up to be a very interesting series! Stay tuned to TokuNation for all Kamen Rider Zero-One reveals!

Some new images from the next wave of Super Sentai toys have also been released online, giving us a quick look at what lies ahead for Kishiryu Sentai RyuSoulger!

In addition, YokuRyu can combine with RyuSoul Red and Tyramigo to form a dragonic configuration known as PuTyramigo. YokuRyu has a unique Mecha configuration, becoming the powerful YokuRyuOh!

*A new weapon has also been revealed- the Max RyuSoul Charger! This claw-like device boosts the power of RyuSouls beyond anything seen before, activating an upgrade form for RyuSoul Red.
