New magazine scans have revealed a special new power-up form for the current Kamen Rider series: Type DeadHeat!
DeadHeat is a form apparently shared by Kamen Rider Drive & Kamen Rider Mach, allowing one Rider to use the other’s abilities. The resulting hybrid form is definitely an unique visual for this series.
Type DeadHeat should be appearing this February! Tune in to Kamen Rider Drive and see what this new form is truly capable of!
With all the recent news of Kamen Rider Gaim getting more and more releases (bring on those S.H. Figuarts!), we’re happy to bring you a video review of the recently released DX Yomotsuheguri Lock Seed, which was used by Kamen Rider Ryugen as a last resort to try and defeat who he believed was his arch-nemesis. With that version of the character having been released now in Arms Change format, and announced yesterday to be receiving a S.H. Figuarts release, whet your thirst for some hell fruit with what is quite possibly the highest quality and most professional looking video review you will see.
Please be warned – if you haven’t seen Kamen Rider Gaim, or you haven’t finished watching the series, this video CONTAINS SPOILERS!!! Well, technically the toy does, but you get the idea. Check it out!

Did you buy the DX Yomotsuheguri Lock Seed? What do you think? Sound off in our discussion thread!
It seems that in addition to 2 upcoming DX Lock Seed & Rider faceplate sets being released to coincide with the Gaim Gaiden V-Cinema that a pair of new Arms Changes may also be on the horizon. Fruit Rider News has posted a set of scans detailing the releases details of the DX Proto-Suika Lock Seed & the DX Taboo Ringo Lock Seed which we’d already seen and reported on previously.
However a third scan from the same pages gives us our first tease of what appears to be a new Premium Arms Change 2-pack containing Kamen Rider Zangetsu Proto-Suika Arms and Kamen Rider Baron Ringo Arms! Though the tease is only text based we should be getting clearer confirmation on this sets release in coming weeks. We’ll keep you up to date as more information becomes available.
And rounding out the official image releases after last nights reveals is S.H. Figuarts Doras! The menacing kaijin from the Kamen Rider ZO movie!
S.H. Figuarts Doras is set for release as a Tamashii Web Exclusive in June 2015 for 5400 yen. Though sparse on the accessories, just a few sets of hands and a replacement tail, it’s clear that Doras is a gorgeous figure. Joining the likes of other monstrous releases like Kamen Rider Shin, Doras should be a welcome addition to any rider collection.
Most middleman websites have already begun taking pre-orders for this figure so be sure to secure your order soon!
Thanks to the latest round of magazine scans now online we have a quick look at some future Super Imaginative Chogokin releases!
We now have some concept art for SIC designs based on the tokusatsu hero Kikaider and his enemy, the evil Hakaider! Sadly, no details relating to price or release dates are available at this time.
In addition we have a closer look at SIC Kamen Rider Birth and his backup Rider, Proto-Birth. Previous teaser images suggested that Birth’s release would merely be a ZERO-type (meaning no articulation) but this recent image shows Birth’s armor & weapons- which may imply a fully functional release.
Stay tuned to TokuNation for further details on these exciting new releases!
For those who are unfamiliar with this character, Doras is the primary kaijin of the Kamen Rider ZO movie & menace to the titular hero. Spawned by the Neo Organism created by Dr. Mochizuki, this creature can evolve adapt and self-repair it’s body as needed, it’s the ultimate life form.
S.H. Figuarts Doras, seen here in a singular magazine scan image from Figure Oh, appears to be a Tamashii Web Exlcusive release set for June for 5400 yen. This figure represents Doras’ initial look through a majority of the ZO movie.
As more information about this surprising reveal arises we’ll keep you up to date!
There’s no question that Kamen Rider Gaim is a much beloved Rider in our fandom, not only was his show fantastic but Bandai produced many fantastic toys as well. The good news for any late comers is that Tamashi Nations will be reissuing S.H.Figuarts Gaim Orange Arms!

Ryugen Yomotsuheguri Arms will be released as a Tamashii Web Exclusive in June for 5400 yen. Ryugen also includes the same type of awesome Overlord Weapons that the Arms Change figure does!

Youtube reviewer k2eizo has put up a video review of the most recent Premium Bandai release- Arms Change Yomotsuheguri Arms!
This unique configuration for Kamen Rider Ryugen appeared very briefly towards the end of the series, unleashing a sinister type of power during the final stages of Zawame City’s Rider War.
Arms Change PB06 will cost roughly 4000 Yen before shipping and middleman fees and is available now!
Drive: Type Fruits! On Stage!
Kamen Rider Drive is knocking it out of the park again with another release in it’s Tire Koukan toy line, TK-SP Kamen Rider Drive Type Fruits!
This form, based on Kamen Rider Gaim’s trademark Orange Arms & exclusive to the Drive X Gaim Full Throttle movie, takes the asymmetry of Drive’s base Type Speed and mixes it up with some very interesting samurai armor. The Type Fruits Tire included creates some new hip & shoulder armor & a kasa style hat completes the samurai look. But as a a true Gaim homage it isn’t complete without a Daidaimaru & Musou Saber for Drive to wield!
As far as movie exclusive forms go, this one is definitely one of the more interesting. And once again, our favorite youtube reviewer Baltmatrix has also contributed a video review of Drive Type Fruits. Check out the full video below!
After the jump we’ve assembled over 70 images of this fruitastic figure! So be sure to check them out and read on for a full review and breakdown of this figures features! Baltmatrix and I wil return soon with another one-teo punch of Drive action with the DX Ride Crosser & TK-07 Kamen Rider Mach!
