“Reddo Fight!”

In 1972, Tsuburaya Productions commissioned a new spin-off from their popular Ultra Series. Curious, quirky, and quite violent, Redman joined the Nippon TV Ohayo! Kodomo variety show.  Serialized in 138 5-minute episodes, Redman faced off against countless Kaiju from across the various Ultra series which had aired by this time. Mercilessly, Redman would dispatch these Kaiju with little to no context outside of what magazine text stories and interviews could provide.

Flash forward to 2018, the superstar creative team of Matt Frank & Goncalo Lopes have resurrected this red warrior for a brand new series of Graphic Novels. The first of which, Redman: The Kaiju Hunter Volume 1, was recently released in July. Taking this obscure but classic character and helping to re-imagine his backstory as so much more than it was previously, Frank & Lopes have crafted a modern classic.

Here at TokuNation we were fortunate enough to be provided a promotional copy of Volume 1 for review.  Click “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post and you can read our full review of Redman: The Kaiju Hunter! Let us know what you think of the series if you’ve had a chance to read it as well!

“Looks like the trump card, always comes my way.”

The race for the T2 Gaia Memories is on! As Kamen Rider Eternal and NEVER descend on Fuuto, Kamen Rider W will be temporarily out of commission! With Phillip captured, can Shotaro save the day on his own? With a little help from the Boss, this hardboiled hero will take on a new role, as Kamen Rider Joker!

S.H. Figuarts Shinkocchou Seihou Kamen Rider Joker is yet another lavish do-over from Bandai. Chipping away at the forms and variations of Kamen Rider W in their premium renewal line, Joker was released as a Tamashii Nations event exclusive last year. It was also made available in mid-2018 via the Tamashii Web Shop. While it’s undoubtedly an easy repaint, and definitely has a dearth of accessories, it’s certainly a form that brings it’s style A-game.

While we’ve attached the full 55+ image gallery to this post, you can also read up on our full review Kamen Rider Joker. Just click “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post to be taken to the full thread. Next time, we FINALLY tackle the big SDCC Exclusive of this year with the SOC Black Megazord!

“Effervescent Burst! Rabbit Tank Sparkling!”

Using the essence of Pandora’s Box, Sento Kiryu has managed to create a new power-up item to rival the revealed Blood Stalk! This dazzling new form that shocks even Souichi Isurugi, maximizes Build’s speed and strength and will even drive the fearsome Night Rogue into hiding. S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Build Rabbit Tank Sparkling Form bursts onto the scene!

Build Sparkling is another fantastic outing for this mold, slightly modified from it’s previous two outings as Build & Cross-Z. It’s a form I didn’t initially expect to want to own, but you a know a fantastic show has a way of changing my opinion on things like that. In hand Sparkling is a really dynamic and interesting new take on the mold, though it’s sadly very lite on accessories. Including 10 hands (not all in matching pairs either!) Sparkling can interact with all the goodies included in the Parts Set with the Machine Builder though.

This gallery clocks in at just over 65 images, all of which are attached to this post. You can also read up on our full review of the figure by clicking “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post. Next time we’ll be back with  a gallery of the Tamashii Nations event exclusives Kamen Rider Joker!

Revealed originally at Power Morphicon, and confirmed for release via Figure Oh, we finally have official images for the SOC Soul Of Chogokin GX-85 King Brachion!

The mighty Brachion (Titanus for those of us in the west) rounds out the MMPR/Zyuranger Chogokin collection for many fans. These official images give us a great sense of the impressive scale of this figure next to the other Guardian Beasts and shows off the combined Ultimate Daizyujin/Dino Ultrazord mode.

SOC King Brachion/Titanus will be released as a general retail item in February 2019 for 29,160 yen.

“Where there is light, Shadows lurk and fear reigns.”
“Yet by the blade of knights, mankind was given hope.”

It’s been a grueling 7 year wait, but it’s finally over. Tamashii Nations has at last delivered on a promise to revitalize the Garo line of S.H. Figuarts. Kicking things off with a brand new take on the iconic Golden Knight, the greatest Makai Knight is reborn as S.H. Figuarts Shinkocchou Seihou Garo!

Garo has been lavishly recreated to the most minute detail for the first time in the franchise’s 13 year history. The Golden Knight is recreated in near perfect 1/12 scale form, replete with chrome golden armor, armed with the mighty Garoken and it’s scabbard, this figure is the perfect starting point for a new Garo collection. With this figure out now, and his ally the Fanged Knight Zero due in November, could this finally be the Renaissance of Garo for S.H. Figuarts? I certainly hope so!

We’ve attached the full 90 image gallery to this post, but you can also read up on our extensive review of the figure by clicking “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post. This figure has been a long time in the making, and we took this opportunity to document as many of it’s details as possible. We hope you enjoy this extensive gallery, we’ll be back soon with more from Kamen Rider Build & Kamen Rider W!

“Demonic Fusion unleashed!”

The monster who tried to destroyed Geed’s universe among so many others, has returned. Ripping new life from his puppet Kei Fukuide, and mastering the Dark Lugiel & Alien Empera Capsules, Belial is reborn. With a new twisted form, born in darkness, strong enough to take on Royal Megamaster, S.H. Figuarts Ultraman Belial Atrocious is here!

Belial Atrocious is the first new Tamashii Nations collector style figure that this character has received in 7 years. Before Ultramam Geed began we took an in depth look at his Belial’s original Ultra-Act release from way back in 2010. Flash forward nearly a year from our gallery, and it’s good to see that dear old dad has indeed gotten a new figure. Monstrously detailed, and armed with the ever menacing Giga Battle Nizer, is this Belial’s return to glory? Read the review to find out!

We’ve attached the full 50 image gallery to this post, but you can check out the full review thread by clicking “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post as well. Next time, we’ll be back with our in depth look at the long awaited Shinkocchou Seihou Garo!

Figure Oh scans have already confirmed release information for SOC King Brachion, and now a new pair of Kamen Rider are on the way!

S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Brave Fantasy Gamer Level 50 is another missing link for Brave collector’s. When Bandai skipped ahead to Brave’s Level 100 form, many were wondering when this form would actually happen. Fear no more, as Brave Level 50 is now confirmed for a February 2019 release at 6480 yen as a Tamashii Web Exclusive.

Likewise S.H. Figuarts Shinkocchou Seihou Kamen Rider Todoroki finally completes the original trio of Oni Riders. Also headed our way a Tamashi Web Exclusive, todoroki will beat Brave to market in January 2019 for 7020 yen. When official images for these figures are released we’ll be sure to update our ongoing discussion thread. Keep a lookout til then!
