UPDATE

Finally after months of waiting Bandai has at long last confirmed the release of one highly anticipated Rider figuart and two more releases fans have eagerly awaited. Confirmed via an image on the Tamashii Web Shop front page today are releases of the following:

S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Drive Type Tridoron
S.H. Figuarts Type Tridoron Tire Mix-Up Set
S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Deep Specter
S.I.C. Kamen Rider Ryugen Budou Arms

Type Tridoron’s release follows a lengthy and uncertain wait that made many fans anxious. Additionally it has been confirmed that Type Tridoron Tire Mix-Up Set will be sold temperately. We just saw images of Deep Specter at the Akihabara Bandai display last week. And S.I.C. Ryugen has been seen previously only at Tamashii events so it’s a welcome surprise to see his release as well.

All 4 of these figures are slated to be released as Tamashii Web Exclusives. We’ll update you as soon as pricing, release dates, and official images become available for each of these figures!

The hits just keep coming with another new reveal from Bandai America’s panel at Power Morphicon!

Long awaited by many collectors, the Zeo Rangers will be the next team to receive the Legacy treatment in Bandai’s 6.5″ collector aimed line. Presumably the build-a-figure would be of the Zeo Megazord but there’s no confirmation on that currently. Though we can confirm the massive smile on Kickback’s face with that Legacy Zeo Gold Ranger reveal ;)

Now this is probably the biggest surprise of all from this years’ Power Morphicon.  Earlier today Tamashii Nations teased that they would indeed have something to show off at PMC this weekend. The reveal of that item comes as a total surprise to many, but lo and behold they have just revealed Soul of Chogokin Daizyujin! AKA the original Mighty Morphin Dino Megaord!

The individual mecha/zords are on display currently with no combined mode shown yet, but wow what a reveal this is! A truly surprising and interesting development from this years show. We’ll keep you updated as more and better pictures and information become available for Soul  of Chogokin Daizyujin/Dino Megazord!

Well that’s one way to kick off Power Morphicon! Currently on the show floor at Bandai America’s booth is the Legacy Power Sword!

This impressive 1:1 scale replica of Jason/Rocky’s signature weapon has been a dream of Power Rangers collectors ever since the Legacy line started. Now we can finally say it’s happening! These leaked images from the show floor give us our very first look at this impressive piece.

As we learn more about this item’s release date & price point this weekend we’ll be sure to keep you updated!

Funny how coincidences work out sometimes right? Just yesterday we posted our gallery of S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Specter, and less than 24 hours later we have our first look at S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Deep Specter!

These images come courtesy of a number of twitter users taking photos at the Tamashii Nations Akihabara showroom. Deep Specter looks like a very slick release that includes at least his personal Deep Slasher weapon. It’s very likely this release will include 2 Eyecons for use with it much like S.H. Figuarts Toucon Boost. For now we don’t have confirmation on release details but we can likely expect Deep Specter to be a Tamashii Web Exclusive.

We’ll keep you updated as more information becomes available.

Ready, Go! Kakugo! Doki Doki Ghost!

We’re back with our second entry in our continuing look at Kamen Rider Ghost. This time we examine the recently released S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Specter!

Specter is of course the same mold as S.H. Figuarts Ghost Ore Damashii. As such, if you’ve handled that mold, then by now you know the ins and outs of the positives & negatives of this figure too. Specter doesn’t seek to improve on the flaws of this base design which is a shame, but he does manage to convey a lot of personality and look stylish while doing it. Specter includes his Gan Gun Hand weapon which can convert to both Rod & Gun Modes, several pairs of hands, and alternate hoodie accessory, and a 1st run bonus of 5 Eyecons!

We’ve attached a selection of images to this post but please enjoy over 60 images of S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Specter after the jump by clicking “Discuss on The TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post!

Thanks to Bandai America we have our first look at this years Power Morphicon Exclusive figure!

This years exclusive will be a Black & Gold repaint of the popular Legacy 6.5″  Megazord Build A Figure! Limited to only 500 these will be a hot commodity at this years show. Be sure if you’re head out to PMC to keep an eye out for this elusive exclusive.

Most importantly of all, enjoy the con! We’ll begin our news coverage from the ground as soon as it opens. As always you can follow @rankal (AKA Kickback) for on the fly updates and be sure to stay up to date with the official @TokuNation account for news as it breaks!

Mayday mayday SOS!

And we’re back to kick off a new month of toy galleries with another classic character from 1990’s Tokkei Winspector! Earlier this year we took a look at the team leader of Winspector with S.H. Figuarts Fire. Today we get to examine one of Fires’ two robotic partners, S.H. Figuarts Bikel!

Bikel builds on the already solid design and accessory count of Fire, and gives us just a little bit more. Managing to have a ton of personality, Bikel is one of the more interesting robots you could have in your collection. His wild & rambunctious attitude in the show is conveyed perfectly in this excellent figure. Bikel includes his Daytric M2 Sidearm, his signature Bispears in multiple forms, 4 sets of hands, and even a tiny to scale figure of Demitasse, the Winspector’s tiny robotic ally!

We’ve attached a selection of images to this post but you can click “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post to view the entire 70+ image gallery! We’ll be back next week with another ghostly addition to our galleries as well!

This past month we took some time getting back into the swing of things and after a lengthy hiatus and some technical difficulties we’re slowly but surely getting back to bringing you great content! Including your favorite toy galleries of recent releases and vintage favorites. For July 2016 we took a look at 4 very unique releases:

S.H. Figuarts Kabuto Extender
S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Ghost Ore Damashii
S.H. Figuarts Body-Kun DX
S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Chaser Mach

From Kamen Riders Kabuto, Ghost, & Drive, with a little hint of something off-beat, we wanted to bring you a warm up round of galleries to prep things for the coming months. We’ve attached one image from each of these galleries to this post, but follow all of the links above to be taken to each of these extensive photo shoots in their entirety. Beginning in July TokuNation.com’s Photo & Content staff will be working harder than ever to bring you what you want. Be sure to stay tuned!

“You used me, you brought shame on my sister, you used Krim’s inventions for Evil! But, worse than any of that, you…..
you killed my friend!!“

The rage and conviction of Machs’ loss is embodied in this final last ditch form used to defeat his father, Gold Drive. Though a last minute addition to the series, Kamen Rider Chaser Mach manages to debut in one of the most heartbreaking and powerful scenes in Kamen Rider Drive.

S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Chaser Mach is pretty much like it’s show counterpart. A combination of various parts from the two figures that preceded it, Chaser & Mach. But surprisingly it doesn’t feel tired or boring even if I’ve technicality handled this figure several times before. Chaser Mach seamlessly integrates the components of these two riders into one fantastic form that feels just right. Throw in a cople signature weapons like the Zenrin Shooter & Signal Ax and you’ve one pretty darn solid release. Now if only S.H. Figuarts Gold Drive were out already, this gallery needs a deadbeat dad….

We’ve attached a selection of images to this post but please enjoy 75 images after the jump by clicking “discuss on the TokuNation forums” at the bottom of this post. We’ll be back soon with several more galleries!
