As Tokumei Sentai Go-Busters continues its retooling, scans from this month’s Televi-Kun magazine reveal that October will see the unveiling of two new additions to the Go-Buster arsenal that were first teased a few months ago.
First is the Go-Busters upgrade form, which is known as Go-Busters Powered Custom. This form can be accessed via the use of the GB Custom Visor and that their Buddyroids are transformed into data that will transform into the armor.
Secondly comes the brand new Buddyzord, LT-06 Tategami Lioh! It’s vehicle mode – a three wheeled bike named the Super Speed Formation, serves as transport for Go-Buster Ace. To pilot the zord, a new weapon named the Lion Blaster will be introduced into the show. It can change into three modes, Lion Blaster Mode, Cockpit Mode, and Attache Mode. When combined with the Sougan blade, it becomes the Ichigan Buster Special Buster Mode.
When combined with GT-02 and RH-03, the three mecha form Go-Buster Lioh! When BC-04 and SJ-05 are also added into the mix, the powerful Go-BusterKing is formed!

For those who don’t know, a couple years back Toei imported Power Rangers SPD for viewing on it’s special Toei Channel. It was also released on a pair of special DVD box sets. This was a rebroadcast of the american adaptation of Tokusou Sentai Dekaranger that featured dub work by the cast of Dekaranger over the US footage. This was even referenced in the recent series Hikonin Sentai Akibaranger. Well fans can now rejoice as the Japanese SPD dub is receiving a much wider release airing on Tokyo MX! This rebroadcast begins airing on October 6th 2012 at 7PM.

And we’re back for another round of Superhero Time updates!
As has been the recent trend Gobuster continues to improve! This week Tokumei Sentai Gobuster scored 5.1% which is up from last weeks 4.6%. Alot of this however can be explained by this weeks crossover with Uchuu Keiji Gavan Type G. Looking forward to next week’s finale of the crossover it’s safe to assume that Gobuster will have another good showing. This is the first time in 12 years that a Space Sheriff has been on television and it seems that people were ready for their return!
Kamen Rider Wizard is also up slightly, with a 6.6% rating, from last weeks 6.4%. This could also be thanks to the Gavan bump which Gobuster received. Viewers tuning in for the crossover probably stuck around after and pushed Wizard up a few percentage points. But Wizard is still a new and hot show, with ratings that are sure to change more and more.
So what did you think about this weeks new episodes? Head on over to our discussion threads here Gobuster 31 and here Wizard 4 to voice your opinions. Keep it tuned to Tokunation for any further updates!

I received this email from online retailer AmiAmi this morning regarding the latest Super Robot Chogokin release:
We regret to inform you that most quantities of this item have arrived at our warehouse with some box damage. Unfortunately because this is a product packaging issue, no exchanges are being offered by the maker and we have no choice but to ship the items in their present condition. We are of course doing our best to ship only items with minor damage and will not be shipping items with major damage.
Apparently several people who pre-ordered DaiZyuJin have received this notice. How it will affect the overall quality of the figure remains to be seen, but collectors should be aware of this possible issue.
