The penultimate form for Kamen Rider Drive has arrived on set! A few stealthily captured shots of Drive’s new upgrade, Type Formula, have just dropped and they give us our first glimpse of what we can expect.

A primarily blue F1-racer inspired form with a large spoiler on it’s back, these shots also indicate a bumper like protrusion on Drive’s chest. A green weapon, likely a tire accessory of some sort, is also shown. We’ll keep you updated as more information on this new form becomes available.

A new teaser for the upcoming Kamen Rider Gaim Gaiden V-Cinema project has been uploaded to Toei’s official YouTube channel.

Set roughly near the 20th episode of Kamen Rider Gaim, this V-Cinema contains two unique new stories:

*Takatora investigates new attacks on Yggdrasil while preparing for Project Ark.
*Kaito encounters a strange new visitor to Zawame City.

Gaim Gaiden will be released on Blu-Ray & DVD on April 22, 2015!

Additional toy catalog scans for Kamen Rider Drive’s third-quarter releases have come online! These appear to confirm Drive’s ultimate form, Type Tridoron!

Using a new Shift Car- the Shift Tridoron– Drive obtains a special ability called Tire Kakimazeru (meaning mix-up) that allows him to combine multiple Shift Cars for new attacks!

In addition, Drive will be obtaining two new vehicles: Ride Booster Red and Ride Booster Blue, a pair of go-karts that combine with the Tridoron for extra power.

Last but not least we also have confirmation of the next Tire Koukan action figure releases:

*TK-09 will be Type Formula, Drive’s next upgrade.
*TK-10 will be Kamen Rider Chaser!
*TK-11 will be Type Tridoron.

With the Gaim Gaiden DVD coming out in April, a new set emerges! This new two-pack of Arms Change Figures consists of two key Riders from Kamen Rider Gaim, Zangetsu and Baron in their Gaiden-exclusive Arms, Watermelon Arms and Ringo Arms respectively!

Accessed through the Proto-10 Watermelon Lockseed, Watermelon Arms is a remold of Zangetsu’s original Melon Arms, with a modified gatling gun-shield weapon. Baron’s Ringo Arms is accessed through the LS-Taboo Forbidden Ringo Lockseed, utilizing a repaint of Kamen Rider Mars’s Golden Arms, right down to using the same weapons.

Preorders for this set open March 2nd and end on May 18th, with the current estimated price of 7000 Yen. Be sure to tell your usual middleman!

A leaked image from the upcoming second-quarter toy catalogs has surfaced online. This gives us a quick look at the Shingou Axe– a melee weapon based on a traffic light.

However, this upgrade is not just another weapon for Shinnosuke or Gou- the scans indicate that the Shingou Axe will belong to a NEW hero: Kamen Rider Chaser!

No details on Chaser are confirmed at this time but a connection to the Roimude Grim Reaper seems likely! Stay tuned to TokuNation for further details!

Figuarts Kamen Rider Gaim (the upcoming reissue) will be released in the United States!

The next entry in the Tire Koukan line has just been revealed and TK-08 puts a new twist on the line!

Rather than just being one figure, TK-08 is 2-in-1! TK-08 is both Kamen Rider Drive Type Dead Heat AND Mach Type Dead Heat! By way of a rotating tire, belt, and helmet this figure can assume the form of either rider!

It’s a tiny image but for the moment this is our first look at how this figure will function. Stay tuned as more information and release details become available.

CHOU HENSHIN!!



S.H. Figuarts Kuuga Renewal was on display recently at a toy event, and we have our first look not only at finished product but his box as well! The photo comes courtesy of @shfindo.

Kuuga Renewal sports the same iPhone style box as Hibiki and Kabuto both did as a part of the Shinkocchou Seihou subline. Interestingly, the finished sample has more of a matte finish compared to shiny metallic that the initial production gallery did, though this could be due to bad lighting.

The figure will be a retail release in April for 5,400 yen.
