It’s the return of the king here at TokuNation! Today we’re proud to present a long awaited new gallery, Ultra-Act Ultraman King!

Ultraman King, the ancient elder of the Ultra race, has guarded his people for generations operating in secret. Sometimes he intervenes or trains young heroes, but he’s always watchful. And this legendary hero has at long last joined his brothers in the Ultra-Act line! A recent Tamashii Web Exclusive, Ultraman King includes his own personal cape/mantle, his signature King Hammer, the Great Protector armor, and several sets of additional hands. A unique Ultra-Act release, King has some of the more snazzy duds for an Ultra, and sports the even more rare facial hair. His hammer also puts him in the small group of toku heroes that call it their weapon of choice as well. An interesting and offbeat release to say the least, for many Ultraman King has been a dream come true for the line.

Read on with our full review and check out a complete 40 image gallery of this unique addition to the Ultra-Act line after the jump. And don’t forget to share your thoughts on Ultra-Act Ultraman King, good or bad, in this thread as well. A post in this gallery thread will qualify you for entry in our Toku Toy Box giveaway! Specifically you could win our Monolithic Monsters Prize Pack! Full prize pack details and official rules for Toku Toy Box are posted here. We only about a week left to go with this giveaway but we still have more in store for you. Good luck to all!

A union of the Red & Green Gokaiger Ranger Keys, this form was Gai’s way of joining in the holiday festivities. We posted up a gallery of this bad boy all the way back in January 2013, but now we can finally give this fantastic figure the time & love it deserves with this full fledged gallery!

We’d like to take this moment to not only wish the community a Merry Christmas but also Happy Holidays! No matter what you may celebrate TokuNation is happy to have you here and we’re thrilled to continue yet another successful year with you.

Dino Cycle Charger! Engage! Energize!

TokuNation is ready to present the final of a trio of Power Rangers Dino Charge galleries. At long last we’re ready to show off the Dino Charge Dino Cycle with Blue Ranger gallery!

Just like the Dino Cycle with Black Ranger this one differs from the initial offering with a new alternate blue and silver paint scheme to really set it apart. Though not a color scheme that appears in the Kyoryuger source footage nor one we’re likely to see in Dino Charge, this Dino Cycle helps add a bit of variety to the line and to your collection. Of course like the previous two Dino Cycles this one can still separate into it’s 2 unique Deinonychus components as well as accommodate 5″ Power Rangers figures. And the Dino Cycle also incorporates the Zord Builder system! Best of all is that if you’ve been after the elusively expensive and rare Deinochaser toy, the Dino Cycle is a great stand-in that even scales well with your S.H. Figuarts Kyoryugers! Though one in these particular colors may not be for every collector.

Check out the full 40 image gallery of the Dino Cycle with Dino Charge Blue Ranger by clicking “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post. And don’t forget to leave a comment in the thread as well, as this thread is one of our qualifying Toku Toy Box Giveaway galleries! Just leave a post in the thread of your thoughts, good or bad, on this item and your name will be entered into a drawing for 1 of 4 MASSIVE prize packs! Full details and rules for Toku Toy Box posted here. This gallery qualifies you for a chance at 1 of these 2 prizes; our Charged Up Mega Rangers Prize Pack or the All Aboard Sentai Prize Pack!

Nininininininininininininini Ninninger!

The crew of Talkin Toku is back yet again with an action packed episode promising to dull your senses and cause you regret! Join Chris “Kickback”, Jordan “Den-O”, and Tom “Sentai Tamashii” for this trip down toku discussion lane!

Did you get your S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Gaim Kiwami Arms figure yet? We did – and we’re not happy. Listen to us rant about what all three agree is the worst quality controlled product to come out of Tamashii Nations in quite awhile. We also discuss Power Rangers Dino Charge toys – namely the Dino Charge Megazord – and whether or not we think it’s a good toy and what, if anything, it has over it’s predecessor the Legendary Megazord from Power Rangers Super Megaforce.

EXCLUSIVE! Tom fails at being a good administrator at a leading tokusatsu website community. The plus side? You get to hear his reaction to the first image of Shuriken Sentai Ninninger during the podcast. What does he think? This is actually a pretty neat thing because how often does a fan of Super Sentai have their first reaction to the new series recorded? Check it out, it’s a pretty fun listen. We also touch on speculation of the upcoming series including what our thoughts are on possible henshin devices and so forth. And marbles. That’s right – marbles. Tom talks marbles. I can’t make this up if I tried. Just listen.

Power Rangers Dino Charge had the theme song and the smart phone app come out. Does it get the seal of approval from the guys? What about the theme song – what works, what doesn’t work, and does it hold up? Tom gives his $0.02 as he describes his youngest son’s reaction to the theme song.

We also take an in-depth look at the extended episode of Power Rangers Super Megaforce as we end our discussion on the series that seems to have divided part of the fandom in terms of “IT SUCKS” versus “IT KIND OF SUCKS”. What parts of the extended episode were good? Which were unnecessary? And was it really as special as we all thought it was? Jordan gives his rundown on why he feels it was a lackluster extended battle, while Chris and him get in to it about one of the more fandom-popular moments of the extended Legendary Battle.

Finally – we talk some Toku Toy Box giveaway as the episode ends. Have you registered on TokuNation.com yet and posted in the eligible threads so you can win? You’ll have plenty of opportunities in the future, but don’t miss your chance at entering in each qualifying thread!

Enjoy! Thanks for listening and Happy Holidays!

This weekend one of the most popular toku series of all time will come to an end – Kamen Rider Gaim is coming to an end with the airing of its final episode, “Transform! And to the Future!”, the 47th and final installment of this beloved series. It’s popularity has spawned one of the most successful merchandise toy lines (in both the Arms Change figures as well as the DX Lock Seeds and Sengoku & Genesis Drivers) in Kamen Rider history, and helped gain a slew of fans to the franchise that are either new or had stopped watching Kamen Rider thanks to the love it/hate it series of Kamen Rider W and Kamen Rider Fourze.

Kamen Rider Gaim has been an incredibly popular series here at TokuNation.com, as our discussion threads of each episode have grown larger and larger each week as fans have registered to share their thoughts on each episode. And this weekend they will do it one last time (until the summer movie is released!). While our wallets cry as we continue to buy up all the Kamen Rider Gaim merchandise (who has got their S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Kachidoki Arms yet?!?) we figured it was only fitting to give this series a proper send off here with Nine Days of Juicy, the Kamen Rider Gaim Celebration!

Over the course of the next nine days, starting on Thursday, September 25th, we will be posting an in-depth retrospective of all the Beat Riders, Armored Riders, and Energy Riders. Our celebration will end on Friday, October 3rd, right before the premiere of Kamen Rider Drive, the next installment of the Kamen Rider franchise. But what good is a celebration if the party has no party favors?

As we get close to the end of the celebration, followers of the TokuNation twitter account (@TokuNation on Twitter) will have a chance to win two S.H. Figuarts of characters from Kamen Rider Gaim! If you haven’t followed us on Twitter then you’d better hurry – our give away requires you to be a follower of our twitter account and to also re-tweet the give away tweet! Watch for it!

We hope you’ve enjoyed Kamen Rider Gaim as much as we have. So let’s give it one heck of a send-off by celebrating everything about the show – the good, the bad, and the simply confusing stuff! HENSHIN!!!!!

After some set backs and some lengthy delays due to a number of circumstances, we’re finally read to reveal the winners of our Fruit Henshin contest! If you remember way back when, the contest involved taking any fruit of your choice and incorporating it in to a henshin/morphin pose – your favorite or your own! We received some great entries – so much that it took longer to figure out the winners because it was hard for everyone to agree on a favorite! But at the end of the day these are your winning entries! And now that we’ve been in contact with the winners, it’s time to share their photos!

GRAND PRIZE WINNER!
