Continuing on with the Kamen Rider W theme of Converge, two new Premium Bandai sets have gone up for pre order.
First, we have the Converge Kamen Rider W Max Edition a set that contains Cyclone Joker, Heat Metal, Luna Trigger and a separation gimmick which allows them to be combined into any of Double’s 9 alternate combinations.
The second one is the FFR set, which contains Cyclone Cyclone and Joker Joker from W X Decade Movie Taisen, though the pictures don’t indicate if this set retains the half change gimmick.
Either way, both sets will be released in September, the W Max Edition will retail for 6,480 yen while the FFR W set will be slightly cheaper at 1,899 yen.
The third instillment of the Kamen Rider Converge series’ been fully revealed. Converge Vol.3 Kamen Rider will contain fan favrioute Kamen Rider W Cyclone Joker, Kamen Rider Accel, and the Utopia Dopant.
Continuing with the police theme that this assortment seems to be going for, we’ll also be getting Kamen Rider Drive Type Speed and the Heart Roidmude. Converge Kamen Rider Vol.3 will be released in this September.
Gattai, Dino Mission!
While this might not be the 2 foot tall Megazord seen at an SDCC many, many years ago this is still pretty close none the less, with Premium Bandai having opened up pre orders for the Gigantic Series Daizyujin.
Unlike the Jumbo Megazord however, the Gigantic Series Daizyujin doesn’t appear to have any combination gimmick along with limited articulation but stands at a massive 40cms tall. Gigantic Series Daizyujin also commands a massive price tag, retailing for 24,800 yen before any additional middleman fees and overseas shipping.
RESSHA GATTAI!
Ressha Sentai ToQger’s begun airing in Korea under the Power Rangers Train Force name, and a it seems that a rather peculiar item’s been spotted with a gold colored DX ToQoh having seen in the wilds.
At the same time, the same product’s been spotted in Hong Kong where they’re also airing dubbed ToQger as a Toys R Us exclusive item. For those of us overseas, the DX Gold ToQoh’s occasionally been spotted on Ebay for varying prices. Hopefully, with this item being released in Hong Kong it will become more widlely avalaible.

Bandai Namco Games’s just announced a brand new mobile game for Kamen Rider fans: Kamen Rider Battle Rush, which will be made avalaible for Apple IOS and Android operating systems.
While there’s no trailer out for it at the moment of this posting, the screen shots make it appear to be some sort of Action/RPG Brawler type game with both Heisei Era and Showa Era Riders done up in a super deformed style.
Pre registration for the game begins today, with some sort of event will be running to tie into the Kamen Rider 1 2016 movie.
