Thanks to recent 3rd quarter toy catalogue scans we have our first look at some of the new forms coming to Kamen Rider Build in the coming months! First up are two brand new forms for both Build himself and Kamen Rider Cross-Z, named Kamen Rider Build Genius Form and Kamen Rider Cross-Z Magma respectively!

Kamen Rider Build Genius Form is the titular Rider’s final form, with Sento using the power of unique Genius Full Bottle to harness the power of all 60 Full Bottles. Meanwhile Cross-Z’s new form will see him return to using the Build Driver alongside a new add-on device rumoured to be called the Magma Knuckle.

Finally these scans reveal the appearance of yet another Rider – Kamen Rider Evol! This mysterious new figure will transform using an augmented version of the Build Driver named the EvolDriver, unlocking the more powerful Kamen Rider Evol Black Hole when used in tandem with the EvolTrigger – a new version of the Hazard Trigger.

According to the scans, toys for Cross-Z Magma will be released in April, with the Evol Driver following in May before the EvolTrigger and DX Genius Bottle are released in June.

As Power Rangers: Shattered Grid draws ever closer, the anticipation for Boom! Studios’ forthcoming comic book event grows higher and higher and thanks to IGN, we have a number of new covers and concept art pieces to tease what the story has in store for fans.

First up are the latest sentries to join the evil Lord Drakkon’s growing army – the Zeo and Samurai Sentries! Much like the previously seen sentries these soldiers have augmented versions of preexisting ranger powers. The Green Zeo Sentry is equipped with a mech suit that can use a variety of weapons, whilst the Blue Samurai Sentry sports a more armoured version of the costume together with twin arm blades and red eyes glowing through their visor.

The third piece of concept art for the event is of a new villain from Drakkon’s timeline – Finster Five. Go Go Power Rangers writer Ryan Parrott pitched the character as a version of a cyborg version of Rita’s chief monster maker that has been augmented using parts from Alpha 5.

Rounding off the images are the covers for Power Rangers #27 and Go Go Power Rangers #9, each of which show off some new faces to the Power Rangers comic universe. Power Rangers #27 shows the Mighty Morphin Red Ranger protecting RPM’s Dr K from Grinders alongside the female Red Samurai Rangers, while Go Go Power Rangers #9 has an even bigger surprise in store. This issue is set to debut a brand new Power Ranger, who writers Ryan Parrot and Kyle Higgins tease is a “new ranger with a familiar face”.

Celebrating the 25th anniversary of the Power Rangers franchise, Power Rangers: Shattered Grid kicks off in issue #25 of the main Power Rangers comic, which will be released on March 21st. You can check out the full gallery of covers and concept art after the jump, as well as share your thoughts on the upcoming event.

Bandai Tamashii Nations have just revealed their retail release plans for the months of June and July 2018, and while the tokusatsu offerings among them are slim there is at least one item to entice Kamen Rider fans. Initially revealed at the 2017 Tamashii Nations event, a new version of the S.H. Figuarts New Cyclone motorcycle is on the way to go with the newly released S.H. Figuarts Shinkocchou Seihou Kamen Rider 1 and forthcoming Kamen Rider 2 figures.

This version of the bike matches the colourscheme of the previous single-pack release, rather than the 2-pack edition which came with the original Rider 1 figure. This version features slightly more red at the front of the bike, as well as blue areas surrounding the headlights.

Just how different this is to the original New Cyclone release is unconfirmed, as are both its price and accessories. Stay tuned to Tokunation.com for more information as it comes!

Kamen Rider Heisei Generations has just released in theatres across Japan, and viewers who stayed until the end were treated with the announcement that Spring 2018 will see the release of a Kamen Rider Amazons movie!

Tentatively titled Kamen Rider Amazons: Final Version, very little is known about the movie but many are speculating it to mark the end of the Amazons story which has currently run through two season on Amazon Prime.

Previously revealed at the Summer Wonderfest back in July, Evolution Toy have now revealed official images for their new articulated Fireman, Zone Fighter and Redman figures that make up the first wave of their new HAF line.

“I was born for this purpose. It is what I do…”

Thanks to the sleuthing of Twitter user @_Erasu we have the news that Alien Zarab will soon be joining the ever-growing lineup of Ultraman S.H. Figuarts! First appearing in the 18th episode of the original series (“Brother from Another Planet”), the deceptive Zarab race has gone on to appear in Ultraman Mebius, Ultra Galaxy Mega Monster Battle, Ultraman X and more.

From the pictures provided we can see that Alien Zarab will come with his portable communication device, removable “ear” pieces to simulate his shrunken state and a selection of alternate hands. Release date and price are yet to be confirmed, but it’s fair to assume that S.H. Figuarts Alien Zarab will likely be a Tamashii web exclusive item. We’ll bring you more information as it comes, but in the meantime check out the full range of pictures after the jump!

A special “Tamashii Caravan” event recently took place at the Parco store in Fukuoka, and among the numerous figure displays was the reappearance of the S.H. Figuarts Shocker figures previously seen at the Tamashii World Tour stop in Tapei!

However this time in addition to the new body Shocker Combatmen, Great Leader and Garagaranda figures, the evil organisation was also joined by the fiddler crab monster Shiomaneking! As well as battling against Kamen Riders 1 and 2 in the original series, Shiomaneking would also go on to be revived in Kamen Rider V3 as well appearing in numerous crossover movies and even the Zyuohger crossover episode with Kamen Rider Ghost!

While it’s important to note that none of these figures have a release date yet, Bandai Tamashii Nation‘s new interest in the wider world of Kamen Rider villains is very exciting! We’ll bring you more news as it comes!
