Bandai.JP’s official YouTube channel has put up a short teaser for the long-awaited SH Figuarts Hibiki!
This video gives us a much closer look at the Hibiki Figuarts sculpt than early magazine scans, and Bandai appears to have perfectly recreated the Oni Rider. We also get a close glimpse at some of Hibiki’s included accessories- the Ongekibou Rekka drumsticks, the Tuning Fork used to henshin and at least one Disc Animal.
Figuarts Hibiki is scheduled for release in August at an estimated price of 5400 Yen!
This is our first full-length trailer for the revival of iconic tokusatsu hero “Kikaider.” The trailer features our best look to date at the revised suit and combat tactics of this legendary hero, along with some new details about the supporting cast in this revival project.

Toei has opened an official page for the annual tokusatsu summer movie double bill!
Details are sparse at the moment but the Gaim/ToQGer Roadshow is scheduled for July 19 meaning films should be in theaters by the end of July. This is a step up from previous years (usually the Super Sentai & Kamen Rider films have been released in mid to late August).
Stay tuned to TokuNation for more details on these fresh and colorful summer antics!
While Gaim undoubtedly takes center stage in this round of magazine scans, ToQGer does have one impressive reveal-
This is our first glimpse at their second Mecha, DiseslOh! Formed through a combination of Car Carrier, Tank & Diesel Resshas, the DieselOh is widely believed to be the personal Mecha of ToQ6. Only time will tell for sure; the Diesel Ressha should be introduced in the series shortly before its DX toy release at the end of April.
Stay tuned to TokuNation as we keep you up to date on all train arrivals & departures!
After some early teasers we now have full images of Kamen Rider Baron’s new form, Lemon Energy Arms!
If these scans are accurate, Baron will be the second Rider to swap his Sengoku Driver for a Genesis model to take advantage of the Energy LockSeeds and the Sonic Arrow weapon. The exact circumstances of Baron’s new powers are not yet revealed.
In addition, we also get a close look at Gaim’s third Jinba form- Peach Arms! Since Jinba Cherry granted Gaim the ability of super-speed, Peach may have a special new ability of its own.
Keep watching Kamen Rider Gaim & stay tuned to TokuNation as we keep you up to date on this fresh and inventive new series!
