Tamashii’s Main Page has confirmed that S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Odin (or “Wrath” if you’re a Dragon Knight fan) will be released this summer!
Odin is the ninth Ryuki Rider to be released and apparently his Contract Beast Golphoenix will be included with the figure! Both will be in stores this June
at a cost of 4,725 Yen
The official site for the new GARO project (which airs this April) is now open for business!
This gives us our first complete update of the new cast for this project:
Dougai Ryuga (Golden Knight Garo): The outcast
Kusugami Aguri (Heavenly Bow Knight Gai): The brain
Jakuzure Takeru (Burning Blade Knight Zen): The womanizer
Burai (Makai Priest): The boss
Rian (Makai Priest): The spy
Enhou (SG1 team leader): The enforcer
Zaruba (Ryuga’s partner): The ring
Tencho (Steakhouse owner): The supporter
An unusual gathering that should make for some interesting stories. Join the discussion on the new project HERE!
Thanks to member DrillBIT!The latest round of FigureOh Magazine scans has at last shown off the newest Kamen Rider!
Beast has been solicited for a June release at a cost of 3675 Yen and comes with his trademark Dice Saber & two bottles of mayonnaise. Unfortunately the animal mantles will be sold separately- via a Tamashii add on pack for an additional 2640 Yen later in the year.
Thanks to member NGW for noticing!
A recent interview with new Super Sentai chief producer Takahito Ohmori gives us a few early insights into this new team, and the apparent logic behind one noticeable color choice:
…We chose to have more male characters over female characters. Seeing how modern Yellows have been female, we couldn’t have a male Yellow. If the Yellow was a male, the kids would probably think is feminine and we wanted to avoid that.
Members, do we agree with this logic? Will it possibly affect the future storytelling elements in this new series? What are your thoughts?
After some early speculation and rumors, the sixth Kyoryuger has been revealed! Kyoryu Gold’s weapon and Zord are both Pteranodon-based and should be available in April.
Additional magazine scans have let us see the other five Kyoryugers’ personal weapons:
*Red’s GabuTyra Fang
*Black’s ParaShot
*Blue’s StegoShield
*Green’s ZactorSlasher
*Pink’s DriceraLancer
All five combine to form the KentroSpiker as a finishing weapon.
KyoRyuger premieres THIS SUNDAY so tune in & witness the shocking premiere! :D
Thanks to member KamenRiderOOO for the heads-up
The latest round of magazine scans hosted by Henshin Justice have given us the first look at this years’ Final Form Riders!
*Beast upgrades to Beast Hyper
*Wizard evolves to Infinity!
These forms use the new weapons (Shining Axe-Saber and Mirage Magnum) revealed earlier this week.
Topping off Infinity Form is the new Wizard Ring Chest used to collect Haruto’s arsenal of mystical abilities.
And all of these new items may be connected to the upcoming White Wizard Driver! Stay tuned to this page for further details. :)
The latest round of magazine scans have shown us two new weapons for the current Kamen Riders!
*Wizard’s Shining AxeCaliber
*Beasts’ Mirage Magnum
Both believed to be for the as-yet-unrevealed Final Forms. :) Hopefully we will see more information before their release in April.
2013 marks the fifth anniversary of Bandai’s fan-favorite “SH Figuarts” toyline. And as a way of commemorating this occasion, Tamashii has announced a new type of posing stands for their Kamen Rider figures!
These “Rider Stages” will offer unique icons for each corresponding Rider, and offer a wide range of posing features beyond the usual play value.
Exact release dates & prices have not yet been confirmed but the promotion for these Stands will run from April to June (possibly corresponding with today’s announced Rider Reissue Figuarts).
The good people at SamuraiCast have received an early glimpse at the upcoming Bandai America Product Sheet, which contains some new and interesting Megaforce toys:
*The “Vulcan Zord Cycle,” using Robo Knight’s main weapon as another Zord attachment.
*The “Ultra Dragon Saber” which (if source material is any indication) will unlock Megaforce Super Modes.
*Previously-confirmed “Gosei Ultimate Megazord” targeted for Fall 2013.
And a wide variety of action figures, including special updates to classic characters like Red & White Ranger with removable armor!
Tamashii has also put up a new page for the Big Bad from “Kamen Rider Fourze”- the Saggitarius Zodiart!
The space archer will be available in June for 3990 Yen
