Following the avalanche of overnight announcements we’ve got just a few more. It appears that June will bring Kamen Rider Den-O fans a double whammy. Both Kamen Rider Zeronos Zero Form and his bike the Zero Horn will be released, for 3780 & 4530 yen respectively.

And for Ryuki completitionists (myself included) S.H. Figuarts Alternative will be out in May for 3780 yen. This release might be easily confused with the already released Alternative Zero. In fact these are two separate characters, Zero simply had much more screen time than Alternative. But they have identical costumes save for some paint detailing differences.

After posting official images last week, Bandai UK has uploaded a video to it’s youtube account showcasing the features of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers Legacy Dragon Dagger!

According to the video’s description:

Coming to the UK 2014 The Legacy Dragon Dagger includes 3 battle sound effects activate by pressing the keys. Activate 2 further zord summon sounds and the theme song when the mouth piece is pressed changing the keys functions.

The nice thing about the theme music played on this piece versus the Legacy Morpher? It actually has the lyrics “Go Go Power Rangers”!!

This sad bit of news comes by way of our sister site TFW2005. Seizo Kato, who is best known to Transformers fans as G1 Megatron & Galvatron, and to Tokusatsu fans as General Jark from Kamen Rider Black RX, has passed away at 86. Mr. Kato died of bladder cancer at a hospital in Itabashi, Tokyo. Kato had a long history of voice work in Japan but Toku fans will remember him best for his various live action roles:

  • Alien Mephilas – Ultraman Episode 33 & Reprising the role in Ultraman Mebius.
  • Star King Bazoo – Dengeki Sentai Changeman
  • Emperor Zeba – Hikari Sentai Maskman
  • QQ Kyuutan – Gekisou Sentai Carranger
  • General Jark – Kamen Rider Black RX & reprising the role in Kamen Rider Decade: All Riders vs. Dai Shocker
  • Great Satan – Kyoryū Sentai Zyuranger
  • Sol Dozer – Tokkyuu Shirei Solbrain
  • It in Ninpuu Sentai Hurricaneger

The entire staff of Tokunation as well as TFW2005 are deeply saddened to hear of his passing and would like to wish his friends and family nothing but the best.

A few days back we reported some of the first information regarding the Mega Bloks Super Megaforce Q Rex Megazord, info that came via an Amazon listing. Now the Mega Bloks website has listed this set with full images and a back story for the Megazord itself!

From the product page – “Call upon the awesome might of the Super Megaforce Silver Ranger’s personal Megazord and build the Mega Bloks Power Rangers Super Megaforce Q-Rex Megazord! This powerful Megazord was inherited by the Super Megaforce Silver Ranger from the Legendary Time Force Quantum Ranger. You can construct the Q-Rex Megazord in Robot Mode and use its huge drill to take on any Armada giant that attacks the Earth.”

The site has since updated with images of several other upcoming sets including the Legendary Megazord, Ultimate Legendary Megazord, and Air Gliders for the Red Blue & Green Super Mega Rangers as well as a glider for the villain Bruisers/X-Borgs. The ever helpful Raz has compiled a list of these sets as well as their retail prices after the jump.

Youtube user Wotakufighter is at it again! And this time he’s gotten his hands on the DX Cherry Energy Lock Seed from Kamen Rider Gaim! The Cherry ELS belongs to Kamen Rider Sigurd whom we’ve seen a lot of images of in suit, but the identity behind the mask has yet to be revealed. According to this weeks preview, Sigurd along with Marika and Duke should make their first appearance in episode 14.

For now, check out Wotaku’s video demo of the Cherry Energey Lock Seed and how it interacts with the Genesis Driver!

And now we take our final look at Kamen Rider Blade for Let’s Watch Wednesdays!
In an alternate world to the TV series Kenzaki made a different choice. Rather than
Spoiler:
becoming an Undead
he chose to seal Hajime and end the Battle Fight for good. 4 years later 3 new riders Glaive, Larc, and Lance have taken up the charge of fighting the Undead?! But if they were all sealed before, even Joker, then how can this be? A second Joker has appeared, the 4 Kings have created a new card, and ancient power is up for grabs. This is Kamen Rider Blade: Missing Ace!

And there’s more! As an added bonus we’re also viewing the Hyper Battle Video for the series Blade VS. Blade! A Trial Series Undead will attempt to become Kenzaki, and the other riders will have to figure out which is which (it should be easy).

This week is also your FINAL chance to post in these discussion threads and be entered for a chance to win S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Blade or our secondary prize! Be sure to click “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” to take you to the weekly discussion thread. Every post there gives you a chance to win and this is the final thread to do so! We’ll have a nominations thread for the next Let’s Watch Wednesdays segment this week as well.

Could you possibly handle more Power Rangers Super Megaforce Galleries? We thought so!

Today we’ve scored the Deluxe Gosei Great Zord Armor Ranger set! This quirky set features an exo-suit armor for 4″ Ranger figures to wear. The suit itself is based on the Gosei Great Megazord featuring the same visor as the megaforce rangers though it has a color scheme that seems to borrow more from Gojyujin/Q-Rex Megazord.

As with any Zord Builder set this one can combine in any number of ways with the Legendary Megazord or other Legendary Zords/Vehicles. It also happens to have a molded in Ranger Key for it’s left arm! This key is compatible with all of Ranger Key activated gimmicks including the the Legendary Morpher’s!
