Talkin Toku Episode 011 – Talkin Ranger Toku Command at the Nation Summer Crossover Special Part 02 – Released

Posted on June 5, 2014 at 9:00 am by Chris under Kamen Rider, Power Rangers, Super Sentai, TokuNation, TokuNation Site Updates

“Lock On!”

It’s here! It’s Part 02 of the Talkin Ranger Toku Command at the Nation Summer Crossover Special! Featuring a line-up of hosts (Chris, Jordan, Tom, Eric, Zach, AP) from two podcasts (Talkin Toku and Ranger Command), the group gets together to discuss the pro’s and the con’s to Japanese Tokusatsu, specifically Super Sentai in comparison to Power Rangers (it was deemed prior to recording that comparing Kamen Rider or Garo to Power Rangers would be a bit unfair).

But before you do ANYTHING ELSE – CLICK HERE to listen to Part 01 of the crossover, only at RangerCommand.com!

The dramatic, wonderfully acted and Oscar-deserving performances, comes to its epic conclusion! Be sure to listen all the way to the end to get to that epic conclusion! And included for your lol’ing pleasure are BLOOPERS! Granted, there were so many we went with the ones centered mostly on the scripted dramatic story – we have a ton to use in a future “bloopers” episode, which we will announce at a much later date.

Some of the topics we touch on – Premium Bandai is planning to release older Super Sentai merchandise in new packages (as well as some new merchandise). Like everyone else in the world – we speculate. We also discuss some of the new S.H. Figuarts that were revealed – Akarenger, Biorider, Kachidoki Arms. We also talk about Kamen Rider Malus, Kamen Rider Gaim Kiwami Arms, and even make predictions about Kamen Rider Drive, the next installment of Kamen Rider.

Please leave us comments and let us know what you think! Did you like this whole crossover? Did you like the dramatic acting (it was REALLY good, we know). Do you want to see more of it later in the future? Sound off! Post here in this thread, or hit us up on our social media.

Let’s Watch Wednesdays Week 2 Kamen Rider Den-O 4-6

Posted on June 4, 2014 at 10:02 am by Den-O under Kamen Rider, TokuNation, TokuNation Spotlights

Kamen Rider Den-O has come around for another pass at Let’s Watch Wednesdays! All aboard for more adventures through time!

A new Imagin is on the horizon. A scheming, plotting, womanizer? First we had a peach, now it’s time for a turtle, Urataros is here! This slanderous “hero” has also made a contract with Ryutarou and with it comes a new form for Den-O, Rod Form! Why not let him reel you in? And Owner is also turning out to be quite the odd man. Where exactly does an eccentric rice eating, time-travelling, train owning man come from? Meanwhile a mysterious man with a watch still walks through time. But that’s a matter for much later, or much sooner. Time travel’s fun isn’t it?

Den-O Fun Fact #2

Kamen Rider Den-O featurers yet another toku alum. Seen in the very first episode is the lovely coffee hostess of the Den-Liner, Naomi. But astute fans may have already recognized this woman. Before Rina Akiyama played Naomi, in fact 6 year before this, she played Shouichi Tsugami’s young friend Mana on Kamen Rider Agito!

A fresh batch of Images for the third case assortment of the fantastic 66action series  have appeared online!

The fourth mystery figure has also been revealed, and it should come to no surprise that it’s Kiwami Arms wielding the DJ Gun as his included side arm.

Knuckle & Shin Kurokage Advertise Lock Seeds

Posted on June 2, 2014 at 12:28 pm by Den-O under Kamen Rider

Continuing it’s trend of bringing actors back in to play their characters and sell merchandise Bandai of Japan has returned with the 2 key members of Team Baron! Zach AKA Kamen Rider Knuckle & Peco the soon to be Kamen Rider Shin Kurokage from the Gaim Summer Film!

Today Zack and Peco have dropped in to advertise upcoming DX Lock Seed premium sets. Zack is of course advertising his DX Kurumi (walnut) Lock along with the blank/Knuckle Rider indicator faceplate. As well as briefly mentioning the ACPB04 Arms Change Knuckle figure.

Meanwhile in a surprise reveal Peco has stopped in to advertise/announce the DX Matsubokuri (pinecone) Energy Lock Seed! Currently this lock is exclusive to Gaim’s upcoming Summer Film. It allows Peco to transform into the energy rider Shin Kurokage! This certainly raises hopes for anyone who thought BOJ might forget a rider or two from this franchise.

The mere existence of this lock means we could still see an Arms Change or SH Figuart of even this most obscure rider!

Nanoblock To Release Kamen Rider Sets

Posted on June 1, 2014 at 10:31 pm by Kiryu under Kamen Rider

This bit of news narrowly flew under the radar: building Block company Nanoblock will be releasing Kamen RIder themed sets later this month!

Found via Amazon Japan, we have listings for the four main Riders of Kamen Rider Gaim including Gaim himself, Baron, Ryugen, and Zangetsu, with the production images showing that you can replicated the pre-transformed giant fruit on head state somewhat, each Rider will come with his signature weapon.

Also joining the Gaim Riders, we have Kamen Rider 1whom will include enough pieces to build the Cyclone Bike in addition to a set that will include two Shocker Combatmen.

The sets aren’t too expensive with the Gaim riders costing 1680 yen a piece while the Shocker two pack at 1944 yen. Understandably, Kamen Rider 1 is a bit pricer at 2160 yen.

According to the Amazon Japan listings, these should be release on June 30th.

S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Shin Gallery

Posted on June 1, 2014 at 9:23 pm by Den-O under Kamen Rider

It’s time for TokuNation to take a dark turn down memory lane, all the way back to 1992. That was the year the film Shin Kamen Rider: Prologue was released. This film was the very definition of a grim gritty reboot for the beloved Kamen Rider franchise. As “Prologue” implies, this film was originally meant to set up a new rider TV series. Despite the films incredible practical & special effects, it’s dark re-imagining of the rider concept put off too many old school fans while simultaneously frightening new young fans of the time.

Until now Shin has been mostly relegated to making special appearances in Kamen Rider team-up films such as All-Riders VS Dai Shocker, Let’s Go Kamen Riders, or the Heisei VS Showa Taisen. But now Bandai & Tamashii Nations has shown the most monstrous of riders some serious love. Soon to be released is a Super Imaginative Chogokin figure of Shin. But that’s not all, recently released via the Tamashii Web Shop is S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Shin! And he’s the subject of today’s gallery as well!

S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Shin is the best representation of this rider’s grotesque form that’s ever been released. Though he’s lite in the accessories department, frankly Shin shouldn’t have any. He has no bike in his rider form, and unlike more modern riders Shin carries no weapons, and has never been shown to use any special powered up attacks. Instead relying on brute strength to fight other Cyborg Soldiers like himself. Click “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post to see the full gallery of this fantastic figure!

Kamen Rider Gaim DX Kiwami Lock Seed Official Images

Posted on June 1, 2014 at 7:51 pm by Den-O under Kamen Rider

If you aren’t caught up yet on Kamen Rider Gaim episodes then trust us, now is the time. If you are then be sure to head over to our Episode 32 “The Strongest Power, Kiwami Arms” discussion thread. Because this week Kamen Rider Gaim Kiwami Arms makes his powerful debut!

On that topic Bandai Of Japan has also just released official images of the DX Kiwami Lock Seed/Key set. This set includes the Kiwami Lock/Key and the Senyo Joint adapter which replaces the rider indicator faceplate. When inserted through the joint and turned, the key reveals the secondary faceplate of the Kachidoki Lock Seed and a new plate on the Kiwami folds down as well. This set is priced at 2500 yen. 

Another larger pack including Kiwami, the Joint, and the Kachidoki Lock Seed will also be released concurrently with the standard Kiwami & Joint set. This larger set is priced at 4500 yen.

Posted on May 29, 2014 at 3:06 pm by Paladin under Kamen Rider

The first members of the Zawame City Rider War have finally made their way to out! S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Gaim & Baron are released in stores at last!

The Hacchaka Blog gives us an excellent photo gallery of Gaim, revealing that his release uses the older-style Figuart hand instead of the new “storage-tray” models first seen in the recent Kamen Rider Kabuto Renewal.

Meanwhile, Youtube reviewer k2eizo has put up two brief video reviews of these excellent new figures! Check them both out:

Arms Change AC13 Kiwami Arms Gaim Image!

Posted on May 29, 2014 at 11:01 am by Den-O under Kamen Rider

After the reveal of Kamen Rider Gaim Kiwami Arms via Magazine scans this week, we knew inevitably toy reveals were coming soon. But there’s also a bit of a shocker in this image.

In the magazine scans which have surfaced in the last few days we see that by using the Kiwami Key Gaim can unlock a secondary mode of the Kachidoki Lock Seed. Also seen in scans his Kachidoki Armor then “casts off“, Kamen Rider Kabuto style, to reveal Kiwami Arms beneath it. It appears this has been carried over to the Arms Change figure as well!

AC13 Kiwami Arms Gaim includes cast off Kachidoki Armor to reveal Kiwami beneath it! For what is speculated to be the last retail release of the Arms Change line it’s certainly going out with a bang!

DX Fifteen Lock Seed Set Official Images

Posted on May 29, 2014 at 1:05 am by Kiryu under Kamen Rider

LOCK ON!

The latest Premum Bandai Lock Seed set to go up for pre order features the main villain from the Heisei VS Showa movie: Armored Rider Fifteen and the official images of this set have finally gone up.

Rather than being based on a fruit, this unique Lock Seed appears to borrow more of a skeletal motif and the set itself which includes both Lock Seed and Face Plate is scheduled to ship out this August 2014 for a surprisingly wallet friendly price of of 2160 yen.
