As more details emerge about Kamen Rider Drive’s final form we inch closer to a full reveal. And today we have our clearest look yet at Kamen Rider Drive Type Tridoron! This is the first time we’ve seen the actual design of the helmet, and I must say it looks very very good. Taking on the characteristics of the Tridoron itself, this form brings Drive’s upgrades and color schemes full circle.

This images is a also bit of a double whammy for news though. Not only does it give us a clear look at Type Tridoron but we also have our first look at the upcoming Shift Next Special Shift Car! A 2-in-1 car, the yellow side allows for Drive Type Special while the black side gives access to Drive Type Next. Type Next would seem to be the form we’ve seen behind the scenes shots of. Both forms are set to appear in this summers’ Kamen Rider Drive Surprise Future movie.

Lastly this scan also confirms an unexpected upgrade, using a device called the Tridoron Key it appears that Kamen Rider Mach will be able to access Super/Chou Dead Heat! This silhouette bears a strong resemblance to Mashin Chaser so time will tell if it’s actually for Mach, or possibly for Kamen Rider Chaser.

No fear, no pain!

One of the most iconic Heisei Riders ever has finally gotten the premium treatment from Bandai of Japan. S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Kuuga! Having finally received a renewal figure in the Shinkouchu Seiho subline of high end releases! Our own Photo & Content contributor Ryan has been kind enough to share a full gallery and review of this release with tons of side-by-side comparisons to the original!

The short version is that Kuuga Renewal is hands down an improvement in every single way on the original, a figure which was release just near the beginning of the entire S.H. Figuarts toyline. 7 years in toy engineering improvements have put Kuuga Renewal light years beyond the original Kuuga Figuart.

Revealed just a few days ago, we have some new detailed shots of the NEX Tridoron! Actually we have over 40 of them!

Part of the upcoming summer film Kamen Rider Drive Surprise Future, the NEX Tridoron is based on a 2016 Mercedes AMG GT. It’s been implied that this new vehicle and possibly the rider associated with it could be from the future. The license plate however for the NEX even reads as Type Next. Could we be seeing a new rider all together, or could Type Next be the previously spotted new Drive Type?

Time will tell! When we have more information we’ll be sure to keep you updated! For the time being join our ongoing discussion of the film and the NEX itself by clicking “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post.

A leaked picture from the set of Kamen Rider Drive has given us our first look at the hero’s final form- Type Tridoron!

Type Tridoron appears to be a bright red suit with white highlights, and one black arm. No helmet is shown at this time.

Previous rumors & toy listings suggested Type Tridoron would have multiple configurations thanks to its Tire Kakimazeru or Mix-Up ability. This image appears to show Tridoron in its Koujigenba (or construction site) configuration; a fusion of the Shift Cars Rumble Dump, Spin Mixer and Rolling Gravity.

An official reveal of Kamen Rider Drive Type Tridoron should be seen in the near future! Stay tuned to TokuNation for further details!

We’ve been seeing some speculation recently for Kamen Rider Drive’s upcoming summer film, primarily in the form of information and images for the exclusive Drive Type for that film. Today however we have some solid info! Tweeted out by the official Kamen Rider Drive twitter account is not only the title of the film itself, but a new vehicle exclusive to it! The film will be titled Kamen Rider Drive Surprise Future, and while we don’t have more plot details beyond that we can likely infer a few things.

The same tweet also revealed the existence of the next generation Tridoron for the movie, the NEX Tridoron! The NEX is a special vehicle indeed, while the standard Tridoron is based on the 1992 Honda NSX, the NEX is in fact a 2016 Mercedes AMG GT! Could this new vehicle be related to Drive’s new Type? Or another character entirely?

We’ll keep you up to date as more information on the summer 2016 film Kamen Rider Drive Surprise Future becomes available!

When the new Kamen Rider Gaim: Gaiden special video came out in Japan last month, a special questionnaire was included asking fans what other Zawame City Riders they would like to see in future releases.

Now it seems the votes have been tallied! A new Gaiden Project has been announced- featuring Kamen Rider Duke and Kamen Rider Knuckle!

Sadly, no other information about this project has been confirmed at the time of writing. Stay tuned to TokuNation as we keep you up to date on all Gaim Gaiden details!

Having appeared only a few weeks ago on Kamen Rider Drive, Bandai of Japan has just released a full set of official images for the upcoming 10th release in the Tire Koukan line@

TK10 Kamen Rider Chaser is due for a May 16h Release for 3456 yen. Included with Chaser is his Signal Axe as well as the Kikern Signal for use with TK Kamen Rider Mach! Sadly Chaser does not include his Break Gunner meaning you’ll need to borrow one from your Mashin Chaser for him to use.

Briefly glimpsed on the set while filming, today brings our first official teaser of Kamen Rider Drive’s newest form from his upcoming and as of yet untitled Summer Film.

This currently unknown Type bears a tiny bit of resemblance to the Drive Type High Speed but with a new head. The distant set photo that has leaked appear to show a primarily black suit with a bright green Tire as well. As more information on this new form becomes available we’ll be sure to update you!
