Even with a healthy amount of previous releases mixed in, that’s quite the stack of new reveals from the event. There’s a magnificent display of older releases surrounding the entire rider display that essentially adds up to most if not all of the regular Rider releases from the last decade. It’s an impresssive sight to behold and one that we don’t have the time to list out every individual figure for. We’re sure that more will be revealed through out the weekend though so be sure to stick with us for all your updates from Tamashii Nations 2020!

Following up on our reporting from Tamashii Nations 2020 on the display of previously revealed and newly unveiled Ultraman S.H. Figuarts, Bandai has also dropped a couple massive reveals. While these items are currently listed as “Display Only”, we have our very first looks at two new possible additions to the long running Soul of Chogokin line from two Metal Hero series!

First up is the one which began it all, hailing from 1982’s Space Sheriff Gavan is the Electronic Star Beast Dol Dragon and the Giran Saucer! While the prototypes on display do not currently give us a look at the combined Dol Giran mode, we can probably infer the transformation gimmick in such a comprehensive release as an SOC. As is, What we see on display is a magnificent set and gives us a great sense of  scale, hewing very close to the size of the original toys based on the Tamashii Stages they’re displayed on.

And the second surprise reveal is the massive (and transforming!) planetary battleship Daileon from 1985’s Megabeast Investigator Juspion! Continuing the short lived tradition of the transforming Metal hero robo, Daileon changes from battleship to massive mecha. though we have less of a sense of scale for this release, we can see it does appear to included a small scale Juspion figure, as well as a tiny to-scale version of Juspion’s Garvin Tank!

As mentioned neither of these releases has even been confirmed for release yet, so there are no pricing or full accessory breakdowns to be known at this time. These could very well join the long list of prototypes locked away in Bandai’s vault. But for now, we hope to see much more of these two exciting reveals. Keep it tuned to TokuNation for more updates from Tamashii Naitons 2020!

Yesterday we saw Bandai Tamashii Nations jump into the world of high-end statues with the announcement of the Tamashii Studios Premium Ultraman Zero -10 Years of Trajectory- figure, but it looks as though the line won’t be just a one-off thing to celebrate Zero’s 10th anniversary!

A further two releases in this new line have been unveiled at Tamashii Nations 2020 – one of Zero’s rival Ultraman Belial, and another of Kamen Rider Double facing off against two Masquerade Dopants! Like the Zero figure both sport incredible detailing, however it’s unclear whether they also feature illuminating parts. One thing’s for sure though – they won’t come cheap.

Check out the full selection of images after the jump and join in on our Tamashii Nations 2020 discussion!
