It’s time to talk some toku with the Talkin Toku Podcast! Join your hosts Kickback aka Chris (@rankal), Den-O aka Jordan (@DenO_Tokunation), and Sentai Tamashii aka Tom (@SoulInkChu) as they talk the latest news to hit the tokusatsu community!

In Episode 008 – Articulated Boobs join the guys as they talk about the winning Ranger Keys of the Morphin Madness contest. They transition in to discussing some of the most exciting and promising news in recent memory for Power Rangers with the apparent return of Judd Lynn as executive producer of the upcoming Power Rangers Dino Charge season, adapted from Zyuden Sentai Kyoryuger, in 2015. And the toy topic of the podcast? Are S.H. Figuarts of Super Sentai characters dead?

For the first time (and not the last time if you guys enjoy it), our conversation and discussion about Power Rangers Super Megaforce “Silver Lining Part 2” is done in the way of MST3K, with Jordan watching the episode live on the podcast. The part that makes it hilarious to listen to, aside from his criticisms of Power Rangers as a whole, is the fact he had no idea we were recording. Enjoy his natural comedic wit in this segment! The boys also discuss Kamen Rider Gaim, with the return of Kamen Rider Bravo and Kamen Rider Gridon. But where does the show go from here? The boys attempt to speculate. And discussion of Ressha Sentai ToQGer is hijacked with discussion of Mini-Pla ToQOh.

Be sure to stay tuned to the end of the episode for a special promotion of the upcoming Talkin Ranger Toku Command at the Nation Summer Crossover Event, where the Talkin Toku at the Nation Podcast joins forces with the Ranger Command Power Hour Podcast for an epic podcast crossover. A big special thanks to @trekkieb47 for editing the promo. Be sure to check out the Ranger Command Power Hour Podcast by checking out their official site – RangerCommand.com.

You can’t keep a good man down – and that’s why raz keeps bringing the news! Being the toy sleuth that he is, he’s managed to find two images of upcoming 5 Inch Legacy Power Rangers figures – the Mighty Morphin White Ranger and the Mighty Morphin Armored Red Ranger. These toys are billed as being part of the Legacy collection, which means these are Toys’R’Us exclusive figures. The images are a little grainy as they were taken with a smart phone through glass, but you still get a great idea of what the toys look like. Check them out!

Don’t forget to follow raz on Twitter to stay up to date @razzle1337 as well as his blog, Razzle’s Dazzles. When it comes to digging up any and all toy information for Power Rangers, raz is the man with the know!

under Ultraman

If you’re in Japan, you can make your Happy Meal even Happier with an Ultraman Ginga promotion which started April 18th. None of these figures are truly groundbreaking in terms of concept or engineering, but if you’re a big fan of Ultraman then you might find yourself looking for a way to pick up these neat little collectibles. To see all the details, simply click right here!

under Godzilla

For fans of Godzilla who eagerly await each release of the popular MonsterArts line of figures, an awesome figure was just released on April 19th – Gigan from Godzilla FINAL WARS. While most of us await the figure to make its way through customs to our doorsteps, we do have a pictorial review by Ninja-Web that we’d like to bring to your attention! We’ve mirrored just a few of the images here, and for the full gallery, please click here!

If you haven’t purchased MonsterArts Gigan as of yet, you can do through so our site sponsor BigBadToyStore.com! Check out their pre-order by clicking here! What are your thoughts on Gigan? Share them in our discussion thread!

under Kamen Rider

Awhile back it was announced that there would be a DVD feature for Kamen Rider Gaim entitled “Hyper Battle”, which would be out of continuity of the show and mainly feature your favorite characters from Kamen Rider Gaim in previously unseen arms changing armors. So for example, Kamen Rider Gaim could wear the Melon Arms from Kamen Rider Zangetsu. As part of the promotion for the upcoming DVD, Ganbarizing.com threw up some images of these arms changes, featuring your heroes in-suit wearing new arms. One of the highlights is seeing Kamen Rider Zangetsu in multiple different armors (and I have to admit, using Ryugen’s armor looks beautiful!). A teaser at the end of the page hints that the next update will feature Kamen Rider Gridon, Kamen Rider Kurokage, and Kamen Rider Knuckle swapping various armaments.

Click the title of the story for all the images. Special thanks to the Fruit Rider News Blog for the heads up and a vast majority of the image captures.

under Super Sentai

For those of you collecting all things Ressha Sentai ToQGer, then you probably already know that if you pre-ordered the first release of the upcoming DiselOh set, you should also be receiving a free, limited Rainbow Ressha toy.
