ALL ABOARD!
From Ressha Sentai ToQGer,Premium Bandai has announced plans to release an actual Ticket puppet!
The cost for the puppet will be a mere 2,970 yen but the bad news is that it seems like the Puppet will be sold in limited quantities and a chance to pre order the item will be raffled off via some sort of lottery. For now, there isn’t a whole lot of information to go on but stay tuned! We’ll bring you more info as it becomes available.
A fresh batch of Images for the third case assortment of the fantastic 66action series have appeared online!
The fourth mystery figure has also been revealed, and it should come to no surprise that it’s Kiwami Arms wielding the DJ Gun as his included side arm.
Other figures in the case assortment include Shin Zangetsu, Fourze Base States, and Eternal sans his cloak. The case assortment is due out this August.
This bit of news narrowly flew under the radar: building Block company Nanoblock will be releasing Kamen RIder themed sets later this month!
Found via Amazon Japan, we have listings for the four main Riders of Kamen Rider Gaim including Gaim himself, Baron, Ryugen, and Zangetsu, with the production images showing that you can replicated the pre-transformed giant fruit on head state somewhat, each Rider will come with his signature weapon.
Also joining the Gaim Riders, we have Kamen Rider 1whom will include enough pieces to build the Cyclone Bike in addition to a set that will include two Shocker Combatmen.
The sets aren’t too expensive with the Gaim riders costing 1680 yen a piece while the Shocker two pack at 1944 yen. Understandably, Kamen Rider 1 is a bit pricer at 2160 yen.
According to the Amazon Japan listings, these should be release on June 30th.
LOCK ON!
Rather than being based on a fruit, this unique Lock Seed appears to borrow more of a skeletal motif and the set itself which includes both Lock Seed and Face Plate is scheduled to ship out this August 2014 for a surprisingly wallet friendly price of of 2160 yen.
Kamen Rider Battle Ride War 2 debuts some new gameplay mechanichs and overall improvements to it’s predecessor, and here to demonstrate these changes we have the Kamen Rider Girls!

Once again thanks to DrillBit, another piece of interesting news was found in magazine scans.
According to the blurb in the image attached to the article: The Premium Bandai online store will be releasing Super Sentai related items including original product and re-releases of older toys with new packaging. The Kamen Rider equivalent to this would be the Super Best line.
There isn’t a whole lot of information to go on as for now, the image doesn’t mention anything like how much these original items will cost or even what they’ll be reissuing first.
The first among the Premium Bandai Arms Change figures finally sees release and what better place to start than with then the Movie’s Bujin Gaim?
Youtube reviewer k2eizo provides us with the video demo for the figure which he also demonstrates in use with Zangetsu and Ryugen:
In less then a month, Kamen Rider BatlteRide War 2 will be hitting the shelves and yet another new preview trailer show cases the game’s plot, a new original villain created specifically for the game,the gameplay of Kamen Rider Gaim in addition to the Movie power ups, and a new feature that allows an Assist character to be added.
Further more, the trailer confirms that Tokugawa Yoshimune will be playable at some point in the game. Also confirmed via the trailer: the WizardXGaim Movie War will be one of the films covered in the game.
Special thanks to board member DrillBit for the headsup! As always, you can view the video below:
It seems that Toei isn’t quite ready to give up on the Metal Heroes brand quite yet.
Board member DrillBit found this quick teaser video from Toei’s official youtube channel that makes mention of crimes related to Makku, Madoo, and Fumma happening on planets across the galaxy. To those new to Metal Heroes: they’re the criminal organizations related to Gavan, Sharivan, and Shaider respectively.
With so little information given, it’s difficult to judge if this project is a new tv show, game, or movie. In the meantime, you can check out the video announcing the project below:
Should Toei go through with a new Metal Heroes project what would you want to see from it or done differently from the two Gavan movies? Discuss in the thread after the jump!
