Surprisingly revealed only a few days ago, we now have full official images & info for the upcoming S.H. Figuarts Ambassador Hell! In an update to our previous post about the figure, Ambassador Hell will actually be a Tamashii Web Exclusive as well. In the original image making the rounds the Tamashii Web Shop logo was not present so many assumed it would be a retail release. It is however now confirmed he will be an exclusive.

Ambassador Hell will be released in April 2018 for 6480 yen. Be sure to check with your preferred middleman or service in the near future to arrange an order for this release!

In a surprise reveal a magazine scan has just begun circulating showing off S.H. Figaurts Ambassador Hell! We’ve previously seen this iconic villains’ Kaijin form Garagaranda, on display at Tamashii Events. But this is a new reveal entirely. What’s most surprising is that Ambassador Hell appears to be a standard retail release, priced at 6480 yen with a release date of April 2017.

If you’re unfamiliar with the Ambassador Hell character, he hails from the original Kamen Rider TV series. A Shocker general based out of the western US, the character has made numerous appearances through out the rider franchise. As recently even as the 2016 Kamen Rider 1 film. He’s not to be confused with his brother Ambassador Darkness, who looks very similar and first appeared in the “Birth of the 10th! Kamen Rider All Together!” the Kamen Rider ZX film. Could Hell’s release signal Darkness on the horizon? Here’s hoping!

“2nd Gear.”

Kiriya Kujou. Liar, coroner, Bugster, Kamen Rider. Has there been a secondary character that’s grown more memorable and beloved by fans of a rider show more quickly than him? Almost from the moment he stepped on screen, people fell in love with this two-faced hero. While Lazer has an unconventional Level 2 Rider form, it has a charm all it’s own. After patiently waiting since his appearance early on in the series we can finally share a full review & gallery of S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Lazer Bike Gamer Level 2!

Lazer Level 2 is an unconventional form for a rider, and a unique Rider Machine, but one that’s been perfectly executed. Capturing Kiriya’s iconic Level 2 form, this figure has been given an exquisite paint job to sell all the right details. But perhaps the best thing about this release is the two Gamer Drivers that are included! One, a standard Gamer Driver with removable Bakusou Bike Gashat, and the other is a “stunt” driver. Based on the type of stunt prop used for action scenes this slimmed down Driver provides some extra clearance for any rider ally. Did I mention that Ex-Aid looks absolutely excellent on Lazer as well?

We’ve attached the full gallery of 60 images to this post, but you check out our full review as well by clicking “Discuss on the TokuNation” Forums at the bottom of this post! We have more Kamen Rider Ex-Aid galleries on the way, but next time we’ll be back with another glimpse into Kamen Rider Kabuto!

“Drago Knight Hunter Z!!”

At one time the greatest power available to Ex-Aid & his allies was the dangerous Level 5 Gasshat, Drago Knight Hunter Z! It ultimately took Ex-Aid, Brave, Snipe & Lazer to tame this power together, but Emu (and later Hiiro) would be able to master the Level 5 configuration on his own as well. While Ex-Aid would gain even greater power, exceeding Level 100 & beyond, Action Gamer was a force to be reckoned with. Today we examine how Ex-Aid adapts this form for collectors S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Ex-Aid Hunter Action Gamer Level 5!

At a basic level you know this figure already, as the wonderful Level 2 Action Gamer Ex-Aid mold. What this release brings to the table is the additional bulk armor and weapons of the Drago Knight Hunter Z Gashat. Now armed with the Dragon Blade & Dragon Gun, and a powerhouse of strength, Ex-Aid can face any threat up to Level 5. While this release is lite on the accessories, it’s currently modest price should more than make up for that and warrant it a spot in your collection.

We’ve attached the full gallery of over 50 images to this post, but you can also check out the full review of this figure by clicking “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post . We’ll back soon with several more galleries from Kamen Rider Ex-Aid as well Kamen Rider W & Kamen Rider Kabuto!

“Start our mission.”

When the future was in danger, Eiji Tomari was meant to travel back in time to find his father Kamen Rider Drive, and warn him of the dangers to come. However, Shinnosuke would soon find out that his son lost his fight as the Drive of the future, and a Roidmude posing as Eiji has engineered the destruction of Mr Belt! Seeking to unite with his past self & form the ultimate Paradox Roidmude, can what’s left of Drive stop this monster? This is S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Dark Drive!

Kamen Rider Dark Drive is the first new outing for the Type Speed body mold since Kamen Rider Zero Drive, and this release is easily one of the best. Representing one of the best villains the Drive franchise has to offer, this is actually the design of hero. Even so there’s something so sinister about Dark Drive’s design that it’s appropriate his powers were stolen by a villain. Armed with his unique Blade Gunner weapon and a new set of Next Shift Cars, it’s no wonder it took the power of two generations of Tomari’s to defeat him. This is yet another excellent addition to the already fantastic line up from Drive, and next month Drive Type Special will be released to go with him!

We’ve attached the full 70+ image gallery to this post, but you can also read my full review of Dark Drive by clicking “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post! Next time we return to the Game World with a brand new pair of galleries from Kamen Rider Ex-Aid!

“Won’t you go to hell with me?”

Once, he was Kamen Rider TheBee, before a series of encounters with Souji Tendou would ultimately derail the life that Sou Yaguruma had carefully planned for himself. After a brief disappearance from Kamen Rider Kabuto, Yaguruma would eventually re-emerge as a shade of his former self with a new lookout on life as Kamen Rider Kickhopper! Now Yaguruma is the latest addition to the premium renewal S.H. Figuarts Shinkocchou Seihou line!

Seihou Kickhopper is yet another loving apology from Tamashii Nations for the abysmal quality of the original figure, released over 9 years ago. In every conceivable way this new Seihou release outclasses the original and realizes the potential of this renewal line of figures. From a removable and properly reversible Hopper Zecter right down to the Anchor Unit rider kick weapon, Kickhopper has been faithfully recreated at last.

We’ve attached the full gallery of over 70 images to this post, you can also check out a full review of this figure in our gallery thread by clicking “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post. Next up on my gallery schedule is Kamen Rider Dark Drive!

ARE YOU READY?!

A plethora of images for Kamen Rider Build toys to be released in the second-quarter season have been posted online, revealing some fascinating details about the future adventures of this genius Rider!

*A new Driver has been revealed! The Scrush Driver is modeled after a trash compactor, and uses Jellies instead of the standard FullBottles.

*With a new Driver comes a new Rider! We have our first look at Kamen Rider Grease! This bronze and silver Rider uses the Robot ScrushJelly to henshin, and is armed with a new wrist-mounted weapon called the TwinBreaker.

*Not to be outdone, ANOTHER new Rider joins the fray- Kamen Rider Rogue! This purple & black Rider henshins using the CrocodileCrack FullBottle and is armed with the familiar-looking Nebula SteamGun! Kamen Rider Rogue will be assisted by 2 mysterious new creatures known as the Kaisers whose story is not yet revealed in these scans.

*The Scrush Driver can also be utilized by Kamen Rider Claws– the Dragon ScrushJelly will be used to unlock a new form, Kamen Rider Claws Charge.

In order to fight off these enhanced opponents, Kamen Rider Build will receive an upgrade- a new device called the Hazard Trigger! This switch fits over the BuildDriver and unlocks the SUPER Best Match! These Super forms use the same FullBottle configurations but the Build body is now recolored black.

Finally, a handful of new Best Match forms are teased in these scans:


*SmartphoneWolf
*UnicornEraser
*GoldScorpion
*TurtleWatch

Definitely some exiting times ahead for Build! Stay tuned to TokuNation as we keep you up to date on all Kamen Rider news!

“Best Match!”

Kamen Rider Build has been blazing through it’s initial plot at break neck speed. And now only 5 episodes in, with every revelation further questions are raised. Without further adieu we wanted to get our very first gallery from the series up, so we’re kicking things off the first release from the Build Change Rider toyline. BCR 01 Kamen Rider Build Rabbit Tank Form!

Rabbit Tank Form is Builds standard base form, and as the first release in the line this figure should be the standard bearer of what we can expect from here on. With a unique take on the combination gimmick this line manages to make swapping out halves quite easy and entertaining. However it does put severe limitations on articulation. But if that doesn’t bother you, this can be fun line with plenty of multiple display options. This release also includes Build’s standard Drill Crusher Blade Mode as it’s lone accessory.

We’ve attached the full 80 image gallery to this post, but you can also click “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post to read our review in the full gallery thread. We’ll back next time with a brand new Shinkocchou Seihou gallery from Kamen Rider Kabuto!
