Looks like we’ve got two more awesome Legend Rider Lock Seeds to add to the Kamen Rider Gaim checklist! Youtube user otana7592 has posted up demos of the Kamen Rider Blade & Kamen Rider Kiva Lock Seeds. Each of these new locks is Baron styled and features introductions and sound effects in that vein. Blade shouts “Sword of Spade!” when activated and Kiva is “King of Fangire!” Check both videos out below!

Ryu, ho! Ha ha ha!

And we’re back with more fruity warlord goodies! Today’s gallery is AC03 Arms Change Kamen Rider Ryugen! Another hit from the ridiculously popular Arms Change line, Ryugen is a gorgeously detailed figure that would be welcome in any Kamen Rider Gaim collection. Just like previous entries in the line Ryugen is the perfect compromise of complexity and affordability. (Assuming you can still find it near retail price)

Check out our full gallery of this awesome figure by clicking “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post. And while you’re at it, why not check out our previous Arms change galleries as well?

We’ve got more Arms Change treats coming up in the near future, so watch out for a certain white Armored Rider…

This new round of magazine information has been very good to Gaim fans!

In addition to revealing two new Armored Riders, we also get our first close look at Gaim’s upgraded form- “Jinba Lemon Arms!” If you’ve seen Episode 15 you know how Kouta will achieve this form. And if you haven’t… stop reading this and go watch Episode 15 right now.

And as an extra bonus we also get the first real look at another Vehicle: LS-04, the Tulip Hopper!

Both items should be appearing on-screen in the very near future!

Advent!

It’s time once again to visit a classic rider series. A favorite here at TokuNation, Kamen Rider Ryuki was featured in one of our earliest Let’s Watch Wednesdays segments. Well today, courtesy of site sponsor Entertainment Earth, we’re happy to bring you yet another gallery from Ryuki. This time it’s the Pseudo Rider, S.H. Figuarts Alternative Zero!

Entertainment Earth

Alternative Zero being a pseudo rider, shares many characteristics at a basic level with the other Ryuki riders. But being based on a copy of the rider technology Alternative Zero gives off a much more imposing, and evil exterior. An incredible looking, and well made figure, S.H. Figuarts Alternative Zero is the perfect addition to any Ryuki (or even Dragon Knight) collection.

Check out the full gallery, and review of this figure by clicking “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post. And be sure to head  over to Entertainment Earth to fulfill your Kamen Rider, Super Sentai, Power Rangers, Ultraman, Godzilla, and other tokusatsu needs!

More Kamen Rider Gaim news just keeps coming today! After being rumored a few weeks back we finally have confirmation of yet another new rider for Gaim! Armored Rider Knuckle will be appearing very soon thanks to a particular event and theft in this weeks episode 15. Be sure to get caught up to that episode and pay attention, you’ll know when you see it.

Knuckle will be based on the MP style Kurokage under suit, with a helmet/face plate design very similar to Gridon, but he’ll use the Walnut Lock Seed to henshin! He appears to have gauntlet style weapons rather than the more traditional ranged and melee weapons of the other riders!

Additional scans of the up coming Heisei VS Showa Kamen Rider movie have surfaced. The new images reveals the villain for the film...Kamen Rider Fifteen! While Fifteen is a Gaim Rider, the interesting thing is that his Lock Seed doesn’t seem to be based on any kind of fruit but instead resembling a skeleton.

Other scans have revealed new Decade Arms for Gaim and a Fourze Arms for Fifteen based on whom seems to be holding a weapon based on the Barizun Sword of Cosmic States.

Additionally, the scan finally reveals some details about the Super Sentai portion of the movie, show casing that Tokkyuger and Kyoryuger will be making an appearance

Another unfortunate passing for the tokusatsu community today. Ichiro Nagai, at age 82, has passed away. Currently his cause of death is unknown as police investigate. Possibly best known to tokusatsu fans for his role as GekiJyuKen Master ShaFu in Jyuken Sentai Gekiranger, Mr. Nagai had many notable anime voice acting credits through out his career. His toku roles included:

  • Basebal Mask (Himitsu Sentai Goranger)
  • Devil Batter (J.A.K.Q. Dengekitai)
  • Master ShaFu (Jyuken Sentai Gekiranger)
  • Narrator (Kamen Rider G)

Ichiro Nagai will be truly missed by many. On behalf of all TokuNation staff and members we’d like to give our condolences to Mr. Nagai’s family.

It seems that every single week you think this show is done being awesome and will have a normal, filler-like episode that we’ve all grown accustomed to. However, Kamen Rider Gaim continues to deliver breath-taking episodes that blow our minds and raise the stakes every single time. And Episode 15, “The Man Who Developed the Belts”, is no different than any of the previous episodes – except that it’s full of awesome, even more so than the previous episode!

There’s not really anything we can say that will not spoil the episode. Setting an all new record for “that was the fastest sub in history”, Aesir Subs already has the episode ready for you to check out. Do so, and then join our episode discussion and vote on what you thought of the episode! Beware of spoilers in the thread, so avoid it if you haven’t seen it or don’t want to be spoiled yet.

Once you have seen the episode though, join in the discussion of what this episode revealed, and what do you think is in store for our heroes. And of course, that amazing preview for Episode 16 that will surely be the next significant story point in this already excellent season of Kamen Rider. To the stage!

Major Spoiler here! Click this story to see the first image of Kamen Rider Gaim’s first upgraded form!

Spoiler:
As seen in the attached images, DJ Sagura will be giving Kouta a new Lock Seed in an upcoming episode of Kamen Rider Gaim. In fact it’s a duplicate Lemon Energy Lock Seed like the one Duke uses. This seed plus the Genesis Driver attachment, when used with the Sengoku Driver, allows Gaim to become Jinba Lemon Arms!

 

UPDATE: New images added from Gaim episode 16 preview!
