New magazine scans have revealed a special new power-up form for the current Kamen Rider series: Type DeadHeat!
DeadHeat is a form apparently shared by Kamen Rider Drive & Kamen Rider Mach, allowing one Rider to use the other’s abilities. The resulting hybrid form is definitely an unique visual for this series.
Type DeadHeat should be appearing this February! Tune in to Kamen Rider Drive and see what this new form is truly capable of!

The official reveal of the 39th Super Sentai Series occurs this weekend in Japan! We now have some remarkable new details about the story and production in this new series. With thanks to The Tokusatsu Network for translations-
*Series producer Naomi Takebe states the series will focus on anything fun and include some extensive new stuntwork. TV-Asahi producer Chihiro Inoue suggests that Ninninger will contain several reworks of established Sentai formula in order to create heroes that all viewers will cheer for.
*Long-time special effects director Hiroshi Wakita was responsible for the main Mecha, ShuriKenJin. Wakita suggested combining every major gimmick into a single series because he had grown bored with recent themes.

*The Kiba Oni Army seek to restore their greatest general, Gangetsu. To accomplish this, the Army must gather the power of fear from humans.
*The Army create Yokai by attaching 1 of their 48 magical artifacts known as Sealing Shurikens to everyday objects, mutating them into monsters.
