Mark your calenders folks, December 1st 2017 will be when Bandai holds a Tamashii Nations event, the event’s web site was just updated with a collection of logos from various series that will be receiving a major announcement at the event.

Amongst those series, the two that are relevant to us are Kamen Rider Den-O and Kamen Rider Black RX. With this year being the anniversary of Kamen Rider Den-O, the announcement of a Seihou Den-O Sword form seems likely. The announcement of an S.H.Figuarts Kotoaro Minami seems very likely as well as a possible Seihou release for  Black RX himself. Of course, this is all speculative as nothing has been announcent on an offical level as of yet.

None the less, tune back with us on December 1st and we’ll bring up to date info as it becomes available. In the meantime, make the jump and join our speculation discussion!

Kenelephant Brands just unveiled a unique statue for fans of Ultraman. Cast in polystone, this 1/12 Ultraman statue is referencing an old photo of Eiji Tsuburaya himself on set during the production of the original Ultraman. For those of you that own August Ragone’s book: Eiji Tsuburaya: Master of Monsters you’ll instantly recognize this piece as the cover for said book. 

But, this awesome piece comes with a catch: the Kenelephant Eiji Tsuburaya & Ultraman 1/12 Statue will set you back about 32,400 yen. It’ll be released in February 2018 but it seems like only 300 or so of these will be made.

A few days ago, Super Minipla King Brachion(AKA: Titanus) made his grand debut at the All Japan Hobby Model Show, where Bandai announced that this bad boy will run you the astronomical price of 12,960 yen. Since his debut, pre orders for this massive beast of a model kit is set to begin, and with that pre-order some new details have been revealed that might explain why this costs as much as it does along with showcasing the impressive fully combined Ultra Zord mode.

A post from https://www.facebook.com/Tokullectibles]Tokullectibles mentions that it takes AA Batteries, from translating the pre-order page we can confirm that the kit will have electronics for some sort of motorized gimmick. None the less, pre-orders for Super Minipla King Brachion will begin October 5th, 2017 with a final shipping date of February 2018.

Build Up!

In case you missed it, Tamashii Nations just announced that Kamen Rider Build in his Tank Rabbit form was coming to S.H.Figuarts with the promise that he’d be followed up by S.H.Figuarts Night Rouge.

Well, we didn’t have to wait long: in a rather quick turnaround, Tamashi Nations’ official Twitter account gave us our first look at this beautiful figure, along with our first in-person look at the aforementioned S.H.Figuarts Kamen Rider Build Tank Rabbit Form set up in an impressive diorama display. 

At the moment, S.H.Figuarts Night Rouge appears to be a display only piece no release info was given so at the moment we have no clue if he’ll even be hitting mass retail or not. Stay tuned, and we’ll bring you more info on this product as it becomes available.

UPDATE:

Not long after publishing this article, official images for Night Rouge appeared via Dengeki Hobby giving us a much clearer look at this exciting new figure!

Merry early Christmas everyone!

In Japan, it is customary for families to have a piece of cake during the Christmas season and it’s nearly that time of year again. P-Bandai just started their ordering service for Kamen Rider Build and Uchuu Sentai Kyuranger themed Holliday cakes.

While most of us overseas won’t be able to enjoy the cake itself, it is noteworthy to mention that this is the only way you’ll be able to get this year’s Christmas themed roleplay items: with a Christmas Kyutama and Christmas Full Bottle being included along with their respective cakes.

Each cake will also include an appropriately themed topper with featuring super deformed versions of Kamen Rider Build Tank Rabbit Form and ShishiRed Orion. Both cakes will set you back 4,104 yen each and will be released December 2017 in time for the Holidays.

BEST MATCH!

For those of you that have been collecting Kamen Rider Build’s Bottle Change Rider gimmick figures, P-Bandai just announced the perfect accompanying piece.

They’ve just teased the release of something called the Snap Ride Builder, and from the looks of it: it’s a diorama piece that’s meant to replicate Kamen Rider Build’s transformation and form changing visuals. 

At the moment, there’s no word on when this piece will be released or for how much. All we know is that pre-orders are expected to go live October 13 2017 so be sure to check back with us then and we’ll provide any additional updates as they happen.
