“Long live Shocker!”

After the defeat of the great Doctor Shinigami, the Shocker Army needed a new general to command it’s forces in Japan. To destroy the Kamen Riders, a member of their American west coast organization was recruited. The deadly and dangerous, Ambassador Hell! Capable of assuming a Kaijin form as Gargaranda, the Ambassador is a force of pure evil in his humanoid form as well. Utilizing his trademark whip to bind his enemies and rally his forces, S.H. Figuarts Ambassador Hell is here to build a new Shocker Army all his own!

Ambassador Hell joins the line at a time when the original Showa Kamen Rider series is getting more releases than it ever has. Expanding to villains has been something that S.H. Figuarts has always struggled with thanks to lower than average sales numbers. But the iconic greats like this can go a long way to reviving them in toy form. Joining the ranks of the various Shocker Combatmen on or coming to market this year, Ambassador Hell is a wonderfully interesting figure, though with a few faults. He’s sure to menace your Seihou Rider 1 & Rider 2 quite well though.

We’ve attached the full 50+ image gallery to this post, but you can also read our full review of S.H. Figuarts Ambassador Hell after the jump by clicking “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post. We’ll see you soon again for another action packed gallery!

Well, it’s been quite the week for Banjou hasn’t it? Revealed via magazine scans and episode preview just last week, then making it’s debut in this past Saturday’s episode, then having images of a figuart prototype shown off, Cross-Z’s new base form has had a QUICK turnaround.

Now, S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Great Cross-Z has been confirmed for release! Thanks as always to @_Erasu for digging these images up from the depths of the Tamashii Nations site. These official images, the banner in particular, now confirm that the Cross-Z repaint will indeed see release. The logo emblazoned on the banner also confirms that it will be a Tamashii Web Exclusive. While we don’t have an exact release window or price yet, the listing itself should be live relatively soon.

“Fang! Joker!”

The incident known as Begins Night heralded the birth of Kamen Rider W’s first and most ferocious form. One so powerful that, for a time, Phillip & Shotaro purposefully avoided using it or they’d risk losing control entirely. Eventually mastered, this form was a force to be reckoned. And now, after nearly a decade stuck with the original figuarts release, Bandai has recreated this powerhouse form in S.H. Figuarts Shinkocchou Seihou Kamen Rider W Fang Joker! 

Fang Joker is yet another excellent release for the Kamen Rider W line. Another reuse of the excellent Seihou body type first introduced with W Cyclone Joker, Fang Joker is also another brilliant addition to your collection. Adding a little more ferocity to the base W body, Fang Joker also includes a plethora of hands as well as all 3 versions of the Saber he’s equipped with (Arm, Shoulder, & Maximum). If you’ve had any experience with Seihou releases for this series already, you know you’re in for a treat with this one.

With every twist and turn, Kamen Rider Build continues to earn it’s place as one of the great series the Kamen Rider franchise has produced. One of the most interesting things about the series has become it’s main antagonist, Evolt. Now, Kamen Rider Evol. As he continues to possess other people and gain new forms, episode 36 finally gave us a glimpse in silhouette of what is to be his ultimate evolution.

Today, we finally have our first look at the physical suit for this final form, Kamen Rider Evol Black Hole! This form has been previously glimpsed only in toy catalog scans back in February These new images come courtesy of @TokuParadox on twitter. Primarily a reuse of the his standard Evol Cobra Form, Black Hole swaps the torso’s primary colors for black & white and features the addition of the Evol Trigger to the Evol Driver. How soon could we see this ultimate evil realized? Likely just in time for Sento to finally gain his Genius form to stop him!

With images released at the same time as Gamera (1999), we also have our first set of official images for S.I.C. Kamen Rider Amazon Alpha from the Tamashii Pickup webpage!

Revealed for the first time last week, S.I.C. Amazon Alpha joins the long legacy of the S.I.C. toyline and even calls back to the original basis for the Amazon Alpha design. Originally based on a S.I.C. figure itself, the Pre-Amazon S.I.C. Hero Saga figure, this new figure captures the wild spirit and ferocity of Takeyama Jin.

S.I.C. Amazon Alpha will be released in October 2018, as a retail release, for 8640 yen.
