Hot on the heels of the recently released Arms Change Kiwami Arms, the Bandai Tamashii website has just revealed S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Gaim Kiwami Arms!

This ultimate form for Kamen Rider Gaim is certainly given the collector’s line overhaul compared to the budgeted retail version. So far we know it will be released in November for 5180 yen, but other than the two versions of the DJ Gun included with it, we don’t know what other accessories it may have. But based on the price it’s sure to have at least one or two!

It’s a busy week for the hosts of the Talkin Toku Podcast!

Joining Kickback/Chris, Den-O/Jordan, and Sentai Tamashii/Tom is none other than Deefuzz/Dan, known for his work with the PreOrder 66 Podcast. This means the entire news team covering this year’s SDCC is altogether for a podcast to discuss everything they’re looking forward to at SDCC 2014!

First things first – the group shares their thoughts and reactions to the news of Roberto Orci as the executive producer for the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers Movie. Is it good news or bad news? How can he take the premise of Power Rangers and turn it in to a successful movie franchise? The guys discuss!

The topic quickly turns to SDCC 2014 – the guys talk about the coverage plans, tease at some stuff they can’t announce that are planned for SDCC 2014, and of course, they talk toys – what toys they want, what toys they don’t want, etc. Are any of them planning to grab the Bandai of America toys this year? And exactly what secret item is Kickback/Chris planning to bring home to his lady friend?

The show ends with the group discussing conventions in general and in specific TFCon Chicago, where they make plans on-air to attend the show together. D’aww.

Today was one of the biggest announcements yet for this year’s Official Power Morphicon convention. Promising an unbelievable announcement for today’s guest revealing was an understatement – fans of Power Rangers and Super Sentai now have a reason to come together.

Headlining today’s guest announcement is Yuuta Mochizuki, better known as Geki the Tyranno Ranger from Kyoryu Sentai Zyuranger, the series that Mighty Morphin Power Rangers was adapted from. Basically, the original Red Ranger from Mighty Morphin Power Rangers and the Tyranno Ranger from Kyoryu Sentai Zyuranger will be appearing at a convention together for possibly the first and only time.

Also from the press release sent directly from the Official Power Morphicon convention comes the announcement that Hiroshi Maeda, a professional Japanese stunt actor, will be appearing at the show. You’ll know him best as the stunt actor for Tyranno Ranger in Zyuranger, as well as numerous other Red Rangers for the Power Rangers franchise. And last but not least – Yasuhiro Takeuchi, another Japanese stunt actor who played both Dragon Ranger in Zyuranger as well as the Green Ranger in Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. On top of that, he has also worn many of the Megazord suits for filming.

The Official Power Morphicon convention happens August 22nd to August 24th at the Pasadena Convention Center in Pasadena, California. Tickets are still available (but only for a couple of more weeks) – click here to begin your registration process so you don’t miss out!

Please read the full press release after the jump!

LOCK ON! 

k2eizo has a juicy new Gaim video for us: taking a look at the Capsule Lock Seed series 9, containing Orange, Banana, Grape, Melon, and Durian!

You might be thinking “Didn’t we get those already?” and yes, we did however the fresh twist here is that these Locks contain phrases recorded from their respective actors designed to work intandom with the pre-existing sounds, much like the Phillip and Shotaro Gaia Memory from W. The neat thing is that while in the Sengoku Driver, you’ll get extra phrases instead of the usual Au lait, Sparking, and Squash sounds.

Lock Open!

It’s time once again for TokuNation to take a look at Bandai of Japan’s wonderful Arms Change toyline! Though this figure is the last in Kamen Rider Gaim’s retail Arms Change line, the line lives on with a slew of upcoming Premium Bandai releases so be sure to look for those galleries in the future! For today we’re examining the walking fruit basket tank that is AC 13 Kamen Rider Gaim Kiwami Arms!

This fantastic figure represents Gaim’s ultimate form Kiwami Arms. As such this form doesn’t really have an arms of it’s own but instead by removing a few pieces this figure can use any previously released Arms! The gimmick in show gives this form access merely to their weapons but the toy carries the gimmick of the line & show full circle. Included with Kiwami is a set of “dummy” Kachidoki Arms armor, dubiously nicknamed “Crappydoki”. This spring loaded feature let’s you recreate the “cast off” transformation of this form in show. You also get the DJ Gun in both it’s modes for weapons with this figure.

A fitting end to the Arms Change retail line, Ac13 Kiwami Arms Gaim should be a welcome addition to any Gaim collection. Be sure to check out 50+ images of this wonderful toy after the jump! But before you check out our gallery be sure to check out this awesome video review by our good buddy and site contributor baltmatrix!

LOCK ON!

With the release of Gaim’s summer movie just days away, it’s only natural that we take a look at the DX Gold and Silver Ringo/Apple Lock Seeds of Armored Riders Kamuro & Mars! Courtesy of a Japanese youtube reviewer. The spoken name of these locks is simply “Gold” & “Silver”. While naturally most other locks shout their fruit name in English or Japanese, these locks interestingly don’t use apple or it’s Japanese counterpart ringo.

Gaim’s summer movie will be launching on July 19th in Japanese theaters.
