DASH!

At the last Tamashii Nations event last year, we first caught wind of an S.H.Figuarts Kamen Rider Vakyire Rushing Cheetah action figure was going to be released. Fast forward to today, and a new magazine scan’s surfaced, highlighting this much-anticipated release once again.

While no release date or pricing info was given, we can confirm that S.H.Figuarts Kamen Rider Valkyrie will be coming out as a Tamashii Webshop online-only exclusive and whether our friends at Team Rider and Bluefin Brands will be bringing this over for collectors outside of Japan remains to be seen.

Naturally, we’ll be sure to provide you with additional info once pre-orders begin, so be sure to check back with us for any future updates.

Let’s begin the Experiment.

There’s little doubt that 2017’s Kamen Rider Build remains a favorite amongst Kamen Rider fans, both Western and Japanese alike. Today, our friends at Avex released a rather unexpected treat for those fans: the show’s opening theme song: Be The One sung completely in English by Beverly herself. 

For your enjoyment, the whole song can be heard on avex’s official YouTube page, be sure to click the box below and check it out!

SPD EMERGENCY!

Happy New Year, TokuNation!


Rounding out our coverage for the currently known line-up of figures for wave 4 of the popular Lightning Collection line, we have our first in-package photograph of the fourthcoming Lightning Collection SPD Red Ranger action figure from the fan-favorite season: Power Rangers SPD.

Thankfully, we can see some alterations were made to the figure to make it look more accurate to what was presented in the show most notably to the hands, and the Morpher.

We can expect this new wave of figures to hit sometime in 2020. We’ll notify you once a pre-order is made available so be sure to check back with us for any new updates. In the meantime, be sure to drop us a line in the disscussion thread and let us know your thoughts on this exciting new figure.

The Holliday hits just keep on coming!

Earlier today, we were given our first look at the mecha that will be employed by the next Super Senai team: Mashin Sentai Kiramager. Some new details have now emerged giving us some plot details of this forthcoming series, with translations courtesy of Twitter user @Ben77878871

The Kiramager will fight against the Yodon Army who is trying to steal hope and radiance from people, with jewelry and vehicles serving as the show’s main motifs.

Mashin Sentai Kiramager will be airing March 8th 2020 though the team will be making their grand debut in a prologue titled Episode 0 that will be airing February 8th 2020 via the Ryusoulger VS LupinRanger VS PatRanger  crossover movie.

We’ll, of course, be providing you with more details about this show once it becomes available so be sure to check back with us in the near future.

UPDATE:

Thanks to an update from @Ben77878871,  we now know Hideaki Tsukada, the man behind GaoRanger and various Kamen Rider series will return as chief producer for this series.

Happy Holidays, TokuNation!

Earlier in the week, we were delighted to our first full look at the 44th Super Sentai: Mashin Sentai Kiramager and since then, some new exciting promotional material’s come up giving us our first look at the core Mecha of the team;

Blue will pilot a jet, Pink pilots a helicopter, Yellow’s a crane excavator, green’s is a sports car, while the Red Ranger drives a truck-like vehicle of some sort.

We were initially led to believe that Red’s mecha will be the sports car, but it seems like that initial scan that was posted was false though the popular theory right now is that the team will have an evolution of the color/power swapping gimmick first employed by 2014’s Ressha Sentai ToQger but we have no way of confirming this at this time. 

There is still much we don’t know about this exciting new entry into the Super Sentai series, so be sure to check back with us and we’ll provide you with more info as it becomes available. In the meantime, make the jump to our disscussion thread and let us know what you think in the comments.
