Scans of Figureoh Magazine have surfaced, revealing that Kamen Rider Wizard’s bike: The Machine Winger will be seeing a future S.H.Figuarts release.
Details regarding this release, such as price, release date and whether or not this figure will be a Japanese retail only exclusive remains unknown. We’ll have more news as the story unfolds!
Other than that the title is going to be “Kamen Rider x Super Sentai x Space Sheriff: Super Hero Taisen Z“, we currently know very little about the forthcoming Super Hero Taisen sequel. However our friends over at Henshin Justice Unlimited have reported that the director of the movie will be Osamu Kaneda, director of the first Super Hero Taisen movie as well as Let’s Go Kamen Riders, All Riders vs. Daishocker and more! Producing the movie will once again be Shinichiro Shirakura.
Meanwhile, their report also suggests that the villains of this movie will be named Space Shocker. It does not have a set release date, but should be arriving in Japanese cinemas sometime around April.

After the spectacle last year of some of the bigger file-sharing sites that offered direct downloads being shut down, many users have turned towards torrents to download their subtitled shows like Kamen Rider, Super Sentai, and more. Not many people know about it, but there’s a site out there that still offers direct downloads for all your past and current subtitled seasons. That would be our good friends at KRDL.info.
Check out their extensive library of subtitled shows that they offer from your favorite subtitle groups – TV-Nihon, Over-Time, and GUIS. Register on their site and you will have increased download speeds.
However, KRDL.info is maintained through donations from its userbase. With the holiday season hitting all of our checkbooks a little harder as usual during that time of year, KRDL.info is in need of donations to help keep the site going.
If you can spare it, please head over to KRDL.info, register, and donate. Anything will help, and hopefully we as tokusatsu fans can keep this site up and running for some time to come!
Thank you!

Hey TokuNation.com members!
As you know, we started a tradition last year with our Let’s Watch Wednesdays segment, where every week on Wednesdays we’d discuss two, sometimes three previous Super Sentai, Kamen Rider, and/or Power Rangers series in segments of episodes. This has proven to be a big hit, as it seems every site now has it’s own Let’s Watch segment!
This time we want YOU to decide what the site should watch for the month of February! Aside from the premiere of Kyoryuger and the on-going Kamen Rider Wizard, there’s a plethora of old series from Super Sentai, Kamen Rider, and 20 years worth of Power Rangers to pick from.
Click “Discuss” and nominate the series that YOU want to watch! Once we’ve gathered enough nominations, we’ll open it up to polling … and once that’s said and done, you will have decided our next Let’s Watch Wednesday show. We’re only doing one show this time (because I think the whole tokusatsu community is itching for Kyoryuger), so think long, hard, and then nominate the series you want to watch!
Let’s Watch Wednesday will return in full force in February, with the show YOU voted on!
