A new month is almost upon us, and as such we have a plethora of new toy images to look at. Kicking us off is the June releases for Kaitou Sentai LupinRanger VS PatRanger featuring the exciting new Ranger on the block: Patren X and Lupin X!
In this round, Bandai has released photos for the following products: DX X Changer, the DX X Rod Sword, and of course sofubi vinyls of both Patren X and Lupin X to go alongside the latest magazine scans that were just released a few days ago.
Are you looking forward to the debut of this new Ranger or his toys? Make the jump and let us know what you think the discussion thread!
Via new pre-order listings over at Tokullectibles, we have our first look at full color official images of Super Minipla Muteki Shogun, Kakure Daishogun, & Tsubasamaru!
You may recall we’ve been following the development of these figures quite closely. The last time we checked on it, gray prototype images of Tsubasamaru had been released. However now we have initial pre-orders and official images for all 3 releases from Ninja Sentai Kakuranger!
Tokullectibles is currently using placeholder prices for both listings starting at $1.00, while the pages aren’t live for ordering yet as well. We’ll update when Japanese pages with official pricing go live as well.
Another round of magazine scans has begun circling the Internet, giving fans a few tidbits about the further adventures of Kaitou Sentai LupinRanger vs Keisatsu Sentai PatRanger!
This month’s star is the mysterious Ranger X! This newcomer is able to shift between forms- the silver Lupin X and the gold Patren X. However, the new Rangers’ true identity has not yet been revealed at this time- fans can only wonder who is behind the helmet. X is not allied with the LupinRangers OR the PatRangers but does fight the Gangler whenever they appear- he will help whichever team he feels needs it.
To activate his powers, X uses his unique henshin device- the X-Changer! This new Changer comes with a pair of special VS Vehicles based on trains- the X-Train Gold & X-Train Silver. To change forms, Ranger X merely rotates the cannon on the Changer.
Rounding out his arsenal, X has a signature weapon- the X Rod Sword which also has two unique modes- Sword Mode and Jitte Mode.
Finally, some interesting casting has been announced for the upcoming LupinRanger VS PatRanger summer movie: Comedian Naoki Tanaka will be playing the role of Herlock Sholmes– the only detective to ever catch legendary thief Arsene Lupin!
Definitely some exciting times ahead for Super Sentai fans! Stay tune to TokuNation as we keep you up to date on all Super Sentai reveals.
With release impending in August, Bandai B-Boys have updated their blog with new unpainted prototype images of the upcoming Super Sentai Artisan Won Tiger!
The blog post mentions that they are in the middle of mold progression and finalizing changes to it before final release. Adjustments will continue to be made. Mention is also made of the new double joint in the Tiger’s forward legs, allowing it to pose in ways the original couldn’t. They also talk about trying to find the correct balance in the marbling of the white/gray parts.
Another blog update for this gorgeous piece is scheduled for June 1st. We’ll see you again then!
Surprise! No, this isn’t the recently teased SOC GX-81 release Tamashii Nations has been talking about on Twitter. This year’s con exclusive release is indeed a a Black repaint of the SOC GX-76 Megazord/Daizyujin
Taking a current from Transformers repaints of the same variety, rather than use the usual gold accents we see with Black Megazord & Daizyujin repaints, this one opts for teal accents. Nemesis Megazord am I right?
This release will be exclusively available at San Diego Comic Con 2018, at the Bluefin Brands booth.
