No fear, no pain!

One of the most iconic Heisei Riders ever has finally gotten the premium treatment from Bandai of Japan. S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Kuuga! Having finally received a renewal figure in the Shinkouchu Seiho subline of high end releases! Our own Photo & Content contributor Ryan has been kind enough to share a full gallery and review of this release with tons of side-by-side comparisons to the original!

The short version is that Kuuga Renewal is hands down an improvement in every single way on the original, a figure which was release just near the beginning of the entire S.H. Figuarts toyline. 7 years in toy engineering improvements have put Kuuga Renewal light years beyond the original Kuuga Figuart.

Revealed just a few days ago, we have some new detailed shots of the NEX Tridoron! Actually we have over 40 of them!

Part of the upcoming summer film Kamen Rider Drive Surprise Future, the NEX Tridoron is based on a 2016 Mercedes AMG GT. It’s been implied that this new vehicle and possibly the rider associated with it could be from the future. The license plate however for the NEX even reads as Type Next. Could we be seeing a new rider all together, or could Type Next be the previously spotted new Drive Type?

Time will tell! When we have more information we’ll be sure to keep you updated! For the time being join our ongoing discussion of the film and the NEX itself by clicking “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post.

Yee-Haw!

The shining star, Starninger, has arrived on Shuriken Sentai Ninninger. And with him comes the release of a brand new mecha for this series, the DX Bison King!

Composed of the Otomonin Rodeomaru & Bison Buggy, DX Bison King is a pretty versatile toy. When the two components are combined for the buggy you get a pretty uniquely different vehicle we’ve never really seen before in sentai. Combining them properly yields Bison King himself! A bulky cowboy themed robot wielding a Gunblade! Combine Rodeomaru with Shurikenjin to form Shurikejin Texas, or throw all of them into the mix and you can form the imposing King Shurikenjin! The year of the ninja continues to get more strange and more awesome with each new toy release!

And while we’ve assembled a pretty massive gallery of this figure our friend and frequent contributor Baltmatrix has also filmed a video review of DX Bison King! Be sure to check out Balt’s video below and subscribe to his youtube page for further updates!

And be sure to check out our full gallery of this figure, totaling 100 images! Just click “Discuss on the TokuNation forums” at the bottom of this post to be taken to our full gallery & review thread.

We’ve been seeing some speculation recently for Kamen Rider Drive’s upcoming summer film, primarily in the form of information and images for the exclusive Drive Type for that film. Today however we have some solid info! Tweeted out by the official Kamen Rider Drive twitter account is not only the title of the film itself, but a new vehicle exclusive to it! The film will be titled Kamen Rider Drive Surprise Future, and while we don’t have more plot details beyond that we can likely infer a few things.

The same tweet also revealed the existence of the next generation Tridoron for the movie, the NEX Tridoron! The NEX is a special vehicle indeed, while the standard Tridoron is based on the 1992 Honda NSX, the NEX is in fact a 2016 Mercedes AMG GT! Could this new vehicle be related to Drive’s new Type? Or another character entirely?

We’ll keep you up to date as more information on the summer 2016 film Kamen Rider Drive Surprise Future becomes available!

Continuing it’s still new line of high end releases, Premium Bandai have just revealed Super Sentai Artisan Rodeomaru! 

In much the same fashion as Artisan Shinobimaru, and in fact revealed on Shinobimaru’s order page, Rodeomaru will be much more to his on screen counterpart, feature a greater degree of poseability, and premium paint apps. This full replacement for DX Rodeomaru will be able to combine to form DX Bison King as well.

Ordering information, pricing, & release date for Super Sentai Artisan Rodemaru have yet to be released but we’ll keep you up to date as more information becomes available! Yee-Haw!

Having appeared only a few weeks ago on Kamen Rider Drive, Bandai of Japan has just released a full set of official images for the upcoming 10th release in the Tire Koukan line@

TK10 Kamen Rider Chaser is due for a May 16h Release for 3456 yen. Included with Chaser is his Signal Axe as well as the Kikern Signal for use with TK Kamen Rider Mach! Sadly Chaser does not include his Break Gunner meaning you’ll need to borrow one from your Mashin Chaser for him to use.

We’ve been wondering for months when more updates on the production of the Power Rangers 2016 film reboot would be made public. Earlier in April some news finally trickled out with the reveal of director Dean Israelite helming the project. However today seems to bring more of a set back.

Thanks once again to The Wrap we have details about Lionsgate’s upcoming slate of films & their release dates. As of today we know that the Power Rangers 2016 Film originally slated for a July 22, 2016 release has officially been delayed to January 13, 2017. The change was seemingly made to move the film from a crowded summer 2016 filled with other top box office films.

Briefly glimpsed on the set while filming, today brings our first official teaser of Kamen Rider Drive’s newest form from his upcoming and as of yet untitled Summer Film.

This currently unknown Type bears a tiny bit of resemblance to the Drive Type High Speed but with a new head. The distant set photo that has leaked appear to show a primarily black suit with a bright green Tire as well. As more information on this new form becomes available we’ll be sure to update you!

The power is on for the final time at TokuNation!

We’ve taken a look at 6 figures so far in Bandai of America’s Power Rangers 5″ Legacy Line for the original Mighty Morphin Power Rangers Movie, and today we wrap up our coverage of this line with the 7th and final figure! Rounding out the 6 movie rangers is the Legacy Mighty Morphin Power Rangers Movie White Ranger!

As with our previously reviewed Movie Rangers this figure marks the first time ever that the Movie White Ranger has been portrayed properly in toy form. Oddly enough, though this figure comes with fewer accessories than all the others, it somehow winds up being the best executed of the set. The Movie White Ranger may not come with much but he does come with his one and only weapon, the trusty talking tiger saber, Saba! We break down the ins and outs of this figure, both positive & negative, in the review after the jump.

We’ve attached a selection of images to this post but the full gallery thread contains over 40 images! We’ve tried to fully showcase this figure and in fact the entire Legacy Movie lineup with this gallery. In the coming months TokuNation will return with more movie themed galleries as we prep for the 20th anniversary of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: The Movie!
