Bandai’s next assortment of the popular Shodo Kamen Rider series was just revealed!
So far, four figures have been shown:
ZO, Doras, OOO TaToBa, and Birth.
The solicitation of the wave came our earlier in the week, and it lists two more figures that are being kept secret. What do you think the secret figures could be? Make the jump and join our discussion on the boards!
The Tamashii Webshop has just updated us with the latest premium release from their Shinkocchou Seihou line. Following up on the hugely successful releases of Kamen Rider’s W & Accel, it’s time for their movie nemesis to make his debut, S.H. Figuarts Shinkocchou Seihou Kamen Rider Eternal!
Eternal looks to possibly be one of the most stunning releases in this line yet. Using the excellent W body mold, Eternal also features the very first poseable cloth cape on a Kamen Rider figuart ever! We’ve seen it on other recent figures like the Dark Knight Trilogy Batman, but this is the first Kamen Rider figure to feature such a cape. Eternal also includes numerous extra hands, Gaia Memory holsters, and his iconic Eternal Edge. This release looks to be the all in one package for W collectors.
Shinkocchou Seihou Kamen Rider Eternal is set for release in January 2018 as a Tamashii Web Exclusive for 7884 yen. Get with your preferred web exclusive service or middleman in the near future to secure your order.
Now, count up your sins!
As the perfect accessory piece to the forthcoming S.H.Figuarts Shinkocchou Seihou Kamen Rider Skull release, P-Bandai just launched pre orders for an S.H.Figuarts Skull Boilder Renewal based on the Renewal Hard Boilder mold.
S.H.Figuarts Skull Boilder renewal will retail for 5,184 yen and will ship in March 2018.
The title of the next Kamen Rider crossover film has been announced!
This winter, we will see Kamen Rider Ex-Aid and Kamen Rider Build face off in Kamen Rider: Heisei Generations- FINAL!
And this title is definitely appropriate- based on recent news reports concerning the Japanese royal family, Kamen Rider Build will likely be the very last Heisei-Era Kamen Rider series.
Sadly, no other details about this upcoming Rider film are available at time of writing. Stay tuned to TokuNation as we keep you up to date on all Kamen Rider news!
Tamashii World Tour’s next stop is Taipei China, photos from the event have revealed a plethora of S.H.Figuarts, based on characters from the evil Shocker organization.
Gathered together in a rather impressive display, we have two varieties of Shocker Grunts: both in Red and Black along with a bone pattern version and a Gel Shocker variant. What’s more is that these appear to be utilizing new bodies!
In addition to that, they are of course joined by the big bads themselves: Great Leader of Gel Shocker, and Ambassador Hell in his Garagaranda form.
Do note that for now none of these figures have been confirmed for release, as each figure only has a Display only tag next to their names. Stay tuned though, and we’ll provide more up to date info as it becomes available.
TOEI has completed their first official press conference for the 19th Heisei-Era Kamen Rider- Kamen Rider Build! We now have an extensive look at the cast & story of this new series!
*First up, the story: Kamen Rider Build takes place 10 years after a mysterious artifact called the PANDORAS BOX was found on Mars. The energy from this discovery created a SKY WALL that split Japan into 3 Zones, and awakened strange monsters known as SMASH! that prey on innocent people.
*Kamen Rider Build’s true name is Sento Kiryu! Sento will be played by Inukai Atsuhiro. He is described as a genius level physicist but also has no memory of his past- aside from a vague hint involving a creature known as Nitrogue.
*Sento is taken in by a cafe owner named Soichi Isurugi (played by Yasuyuki Maekawa) who supports the amnesiac scientist. Soichi has a young daughter, Misora (played by Kaho Takada) who possesses a unique ability to “Purify” the dark elements of SMASH.
*A mysterious young man named Ryuga Banjo (played by Eiji Akaso) may hold the key to Sento’s past- but Ryuga’s own past has plenty of secrets too; he’s an escaped convict accused of murder!
*Special Forces Chief Gentoku Himuro (played by Kensei Mikami) will be the one to hire Sento to investigate the Pandora’s Box & solve the mystery of the Sky Walls. He has a secretary, Shigeaki Utsumi (played by Yuki Ochi) instructed to closely monitor Kamen Rider Build’s actions.
*Lastly, Sento will receive support from a freelance journalist named Sawa Takigawa (played by Yukari Taki). She reports on attacks by the SMASH! creatures and may help Build unravel the secrets of his past.
And one final bit of information: the theme song for Kamen Rider Build will be titled Be The One! This song will be performed by a new music group, PANDORA!
Kamen Rider Build will officially begin on September 3, 2017! Stay tuned to TokuNation as we keep you up to date on this exciting new series!
