It’s time once again for our Toku Toy Box Giveaway, a staple of TokuNation‘s history.  Every year in December we give away tokusatsu toys and collectibles to our readers, fans, and followers – just because you’re great!

This year will be a little bit different than years past.  The global pandemic has hit us all in some way, shape, or form and our staff is no exception.  Previously we would require everyone to register on our forums and comment on special galleries for the entirety of the month.  Unfortunately we were unable to prepare any galleries in time for Toku Toy Box 2021.

This year everything will be given away on our Twitter account – @TokuNation – with simple “Follow, Like, RT” rules in place.  We’re also incredibly delighted to share our two sponsors for this year’s Toku Toy Box – Tokullectibles.com and Team Kamen Rider of Bluefin Brands/Bandai-Namco!  Unfortunately, due to increased shipping costs and numerous shipping delays, as well as legalities with having sponsored companies donating items, this year we will only be opening Toku Toy Box to residents in the United States.  We are hoping to have an international giveaway sometime in the spring so for our international followers please stay tuned for more info!

And now for the goodies!  This year we’re incredibly excited to be giving away the following items:

  • CSM Sengoku Driver Project Ark Edition (courtesy Tokullectibles.com)
  • CSM Zeronos Belt

The 9th annual Toku Toy Box Giveaway has come to an end! With a TON of galleries posted in the year 2020 making our users eligible for entry, it was anyone’s game to win. As with previous years, we’ve dispensed with doing large prize packs for a small number of winners, in favor of opening things up so we can split multiple prizes up among multiple winners. That means that for the 2019 into 2020 giveaway celebrating our 9th anniversary, we have 6 winners in total!!

And once again, we wanted your prizes to be total surprises. So the winners won’t know what they’re getting, until it arrives! It’s our way of giving the community a belated Secret Santa each year. The only thing that we ask, as always, is that if a prize is something you already own or do not want, please pay it forward. We’d just ask that you pass the good will along to someone else who could use a little good luck to kick their new year off right.

Now, without further adieu, the 6 winners of the 9th Toku Toy Box are:

– Matrixbeast
– GreenPsychoRanger
– GurrenPrime
– Tokumonkey
– FreshToku
– ShiShiLeo

Each of you can expect a PM shortly informing you of your victory and requesting your shipping address! And please let us know when your prizes arrive with a post in our recent hauls thread or on the social media of your choosing. Just make sure to tag us! And of course, CONGRATULATIONS!

“Alpha, Rita’s escaped! Recruit a team of teenagers with attitude!”

10,000 years ago the evil witch Rita Repulsa waged a war against the forces of good, but standing in her way was the mighty Zordon of Eltar! A wise wizard of the light, Zordon and his allies rallied the forces of good for as long as they could, until Rita banished him to a trans-dimensional time warp. Likewise Zordon managed to seal the witch and her henchman away for eternity, almost. Knowing she may escape one day Zordon prepared for her return, taking up watch on Earth from his Command Center with his friend and caretaker Alpha 5. With the original 5 Power Coins in his possession, Zordon would be ready when the time came, to create the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers!

Finally the mentor of the original Mighty Morphin Power Rangers and his ally arrive. It’s been 10 years since the last attempt to make Alpha 5 & Zordon in a retail toyline. This go around they come in the collector oriented Power Rangers Lightning Collection in 6″ scale and feature stellar articulation on Alpha and electronic lights for Zordon. Surprisingly Alpha is an incredibly dynamic figure while Zordon is the static piece you’d most likely have expected. The only accessory included in the set is a really wonderful call back to the very first episode of hte series, Alpha’s teddy bear which he holds tightly when finding out Rita has escaped. Overall this 2-pack does everything it sets out to do and gives us a really version of both characters in this line.

“All that’s left is your obsession with Amazons!”
“That was there from the very beginning!”

Continually hunted by 4C, Haruka Mizusawa stumbles onto the darkest secret yet in the history of the Amazon Cells. In a quiet mountain village children are cared for until they can find new homes. At least, that’s the cover story. In reality this is a farm for growing meat. Young Amazons are grown and sold to wealthy humans as livestock, eaten as a delicacy. Darker still, these children are bred from the blood of Jin Takayama, miraculously still alive. This horrific new iteration of the Sigma Project brings Amazon Alpha & Amazon Omega together for their final climactic battle. The Final Judgement is here.

It’s been a long time coming for me to review this set. Having collected every other release from Kamen Rider Amazons, I simply couldn’t pass up on this one any longer. Based on the Amazons film The Last Judgement, this set recreates Kamen Rider’s Amazon Alpha & Amazon Omega in their final blood splattered appearances. Remolded and repainted with copious battle damage, these two look live they’ve been through hell, and they really have. While they may seem like superfluous releases to many, they’re absolutely necessary to me. Check out our comprehensive list of Amazons related gallery below to catch up with everything we’ve reviewed for this series:

S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Amazon Alpha
S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Amazon Alpha (2nd Season Version)
S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Amazon Omega

“Zack here, this is kicking!”

An interdimensional wizard asking him to defend the earth from a 10,000 year old witch may have been just too weird for Zack Taylor, at first. But faced with a choice, let monsters attack him and his friends or step up and defend the Earth, he was always going to do the right thing. Clever & brave, Zack was gifted the powers of the Mighty Morphin Black Ranger & the powerful Mastodon Dinozord! Protecting Earth from the likes of Rita Repulsa and Lord Zedd, Zack was the first in a long line of Black Powers Rangers and powerful black heroes.

Finally rounding out the core team of the original 5 Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, the Mighty Morphin Black Ranger brings us around to our 2nd release for Zack Taylor in the line. First released in his Dragon Shield form, this standard variant gives us  many of the same accessories. The Power Axe is a straight repack and the effect for it cast in new colors, we get a pair of hands, the Blade Blaster gun mode as well as a brand new sculpt for the sword/blade mode, and we get an all new unmasked headsculpt based on the likeness of Zack’s actor Walter Jones! That’s more than enough variety to warrant purchasing this character again in my opinion.

“Dino Thunder, power up!”

Connor McKnight could have never guessed that his teacher, Dr. Tommy Oliver, was once a Power Ranger. But after accidentally bonding with an ancient Dino Gem, becoming a Power Ranger himself with his two best friends, and facing off against the forces of an evil dinosaur mutant bent on returning Earth to the age of dinosaurs, nothing surprises him now. With power from within and the roar of the T-Rex in his heart, Connor has become the Dino Thunder Red Ranger! Protectors of the right, defenders sworn to fight, together Connor Ethan & Kira are the Power Rangers Dino Thunder!

The 3rd release from Power Rangers Dino Thunder is here! Following on from the White Ranger and Fighting Spirit Green Ranger, the Dino Thunder Red Ranger brings a bit more heroic red presence to your collection, and a ton of accessories along with it. Equipped with the Thundermax Blaster & Saber, Connor also comes with a brand new unique effect part for the saber, the Tyranno Staff, extra hands and an unmasked head based on the likeness of Connor’s actor James Napier! That’s quite the complete package for this figure.

“My strength is off the charts.”

The cruelty of humanity. That is what Gai Amatsu instilled in Satellite Ark. In doing so he instigated not only the Daybreak Town Incident, but also the creation of Metsuboujinrai.net, and all the pain to come for both humans & humagears. For 12 years Gai has manipulated events from the comfortable shadows of ZAIA Enterprise. Now the mysterious man behind A.I.M.S. has his sights set on Hiden Intelligence as well, but can Zero-One keep his grandfather’s company safe? Gai Amatsu is a master manipulator, and maybe one day, he could even be a hero. But for now? With strength that’s 1000% greater than Zero-One’s, the golden solider Kamen Rider Thouser is born!

Sharing it’s essential engineering and even some actual parts with Zero-One, S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Thouser is a pretty regal release. Gold & silver with royal purple compound eyes, Thouser is exactly as ostentatious as it’s user would have hoped. A lavishly detailed and well executed figure with a handful of design drawbacks, Thouser is complimented by his Thousand Jacker and even includes a Raidriser for use with other figures! While not a perfect release it will add 1000% more power to your collection.

Figuarts Kamen Rider Thouser in the thread linked below by clicking “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post. And remember, commenting in this gallery thread will qualify you for one (1) additional entry in our annual TOKU TOY BOX giveaway! Offical rules HERE.

“Get off our planet!”

Billy Cranston was an average kid with a way beyond average intellect. Making his way through high school with his friends was hard enough, before a benevolent inter-dimensional being chose him and 4 others to protect the Earth from an ancient evil sorceress! Patient & wise, Billy was gifted the powers of the Mighty Morphin Blue Ranger & the powerful Triceratops Dinozord! Part of an incredible team, Billy defended the Earth for years to come as it’s one and only Blue Ranger. When things changed, Billy was always there with a steady hand and strong mind to help guide the Power Rangers towards victory.

The Mighty Morphin Blue Ranger finally rounds out our reviews of the Lightning Collection Wave 5 figures, and brings us close to having the full MMPR team. Armed with the Tricera Lance in both forms as well as his Blade Blaster Billy is ready to face any threat. Of course some extra hands, and energy effect, and an unmasked head based on the likeness of actor David Yost also round out this release! Next time we revisit MMPR one more time to round out the final standard member of the team with the Mighty Morphin Black Ranger!

“Time for, Time Force!”

Travelling back in time from the year 3000 the wanted criminal Ransik sought to control the Earth before his enemies at Time Force ever even existed. Having disposed with the Red Ranger of his time, Alex Drake, Ransik had ensured his enemies could no longer Morph despite following him to the past. Luckily for Time Force though, Alex’s ancestor Wes Collins was willing to step up and ensure that the future came to pass. With the DNA locks on their Chronomorphers broken, the Time Force Rangers could access their powers again! Joining these heroes from the future, Wes Collins is the Time Force Red Ranger!

The Time Force Red Ranger brings us the first of these time travelling heroes to the Power Rangers Lightning Collection. Building from all the standard articulation hallmarks of the line, Wes also has quite the accessories to accompany him. Both of his Chrono Sabers, an effect part for them, the Chrono Blaster, a pair of hands, and an unmasked head of Wes Collins based on the likeness of his actor, Jason Faunt! That’s quite a release to kick off a team of rangers with.

“Drago power, white ranger.”

Both of Trent Fernandez’s parents were lost in an archaeological dig accident, while working for Anton Mercer. The man who would be Mesogog. And the man who would also become Trent’s adoptive father. Not knowing his new guardians’ alter ego, Trent unwittingly stumbled into one of Mesogog’s invisportals and discovered the White Dino Gem. Fused with it’s power, and taken control of by it’s evil intent, Trent savagely attacked the Power Rangers many times. That is until his father, able to briefly suppress Mesogog, freed Trent of the gem’s influence. Finally in control of his own power and ready to defend the world against Mesogog’s army of monsters, Trent Mercer joined the Power Rangers as the Dino Thunder White Ranger!

The Lightning Collection Dino Thunder White Ranger was released earlier this year as a Walgreen’s exclusive in the US, actually well before it’s official announcement. And some glaring issues with it’s head aside, this is an excellent release. A dynamic figure with plenty of paint apps (though a few are missing) and some pretty great accessories like the Drago Sword and laser arrow effects, the White Ranger is a great way to kick of the Dino Thunder Rangers in this line.
