“Do it Ejji! Henshin!”

800 years ago 4 alchemists created the Greeed. Incapable of human emotion and consumed by craving, they desired to consume the world. Before they could, they were sealed away by the first OOO. In the present Eiji Hino was minding his own business as a part time security guard when Ankh managed to break the seal on the Greeed, releasing them back into the human world. Still craving to be whole, nothing could stand in their way without the power of the King. Though still incomplete himself, just a disembodied hand, Ankh stole some of their Core Medals and the OOO Driver looking to find a human pawn. Handing the Driver of the king and the Core Medals over to the hapless Eiji, Ankh allowed him to become Kamen Rider OOO!

S.H. Figuarts Shinkocchou Seihou Ankh is now Bandai’s third attempt to get the incomplete form of this character right. Taking what came before it in the form of a first run bonus, then a bonafide accessory set, Seihou Ankh aims to be the all in one package and for the most part succeeds. Including iconic accessories like Ankh’s Ice Pop, cell phone, and two sets of Core Medals, this figure is also capable of becoming the forearm of Seihou Human Form Ankh. With a variety of options like this, and perfectly complimenting Shinkocchou Seihou OOO, Ankh should hit the sweet spot for most collectors.

Figuarts Shinkocchou Seihou Ankh 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.

“Go tell King Mondo, if it’s a fight he wants, it’s a fight he’s gonna get!”

Tommy Oliver has been a Power Ranger before. First as the corrupted Green Ranger before turning to the side of good, and again as he was given another chance and a new set of powers as the White Ranger. But with his powers destroyed and the Command Center in ruins, what’s left for this once Mighty Morphin hero? Alpha 5 & Zordon have spent years preparing for this , a day when the Power Rangers as we know them, would be gone forever, and a new fighting force would have to take their place. With the Machine Empire and it’s fearsome new monsters invading Earth, the only team that can stand up to them is the Power Rangers Zeo! Imbued with the energy of the Zeo Crystals, each ranger is stronger than before! Tommy once again heeds the call to defend Earth, but this time as Zeo Ranger V, RED!

The Red Zeo Ranger joins the Power Rangers Lightning Collection for Wave 6, and marks the 3rd (or 4th) release so far for the team after Blue and the two different Gold’s. Building off the solid base that is the Zeo Ranger mold, Tommy is an excellent release. With all the right articulation hallmarks needed for dynamic posing, this figure is also packed with accessories. Like an unmasked head sculpt, a Zeo Laser Pistol & effect part for it, the Power Pod Sword, and the Zeo V Power Sword! While a couple of issues persist from the last release, this feels like an all around improvement.

“This Zero-One Driver’s different from the usual one.”

In one world the life of the average human has been made better by Hide Intelligence’s Humagears. When their founder, Korenosuke Hiden, passed away the responsibilities of president passed on to his grandson, Aruto. Authorized to use the Progrise Keys & Zero-One Driver, he fought to build a world where Humans & Humagers could coexist, as Kamen Rider Zero-One! But in another world, where Humagears exterminate humans, Aruto is on the run. His company lost, his driver taken, teaming up with Kamen Rider Zi-O, and relying on a Forceriser given to him by a mysterious stranger, Aruto fights to bring his world back and begin a new generation of heroes as Kamen Rider Zero Zero-One!

Zero Zero-One is Aruto’s movie exclusive form from Reiwa: The First Generation. The S.H. Figuart of this design is much like the actual suit, an amalgam of parts from multiple characters. Zero Zero-One features a mix of body parts from Kamen Rider Horobi, as well as a surprising number of parts carried over or slightly remolded from Build villain Night Rogue and vis various remolds, all while featuring a brand new Zero-One head sculpt. And while this release doesn’t come with much, only a few pairs of hands, it’s a striking design that’s sure to accent your ever growing Zero-One Figuarts collection.

Figuarts Kamen Rider Zero Zero-One 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.

“It’s time for a Gold Rush!”

Courage, Wisdom, & Heart. Travelling to Earth in the mighty Pyramidas, Trey of Triforia carried with him the awesome powers of the Zeo Gold Ranger! Aiding the Power Rangers whenever a new threat appeared, the Gold Ranger rushed onto the battlefield. And although Trey had to pass his powers to Jason Lee Scott for a time, this golden hero is tough to defeat. After helping the rangers to defeat the Machine Empire once and for all, Trey remained an ally of Earth for years to come in the battles against both the Alliance of Evil and the Armada. After all, once a ranger, always a ranger.

Quick as lightning, strong as steel, this galler is for real! We kick off Toku Toy Box season this year with our gallery of the Power Rangers Lightning Collection Zeo Gold Ranger! This release marks the figure’s debut in the retail line after previously being exclusive to the SDCC 2019 2-pack with the Mighty Morphin Red Ranger. And this release of the mold is also as the original user of the powers, Trey of Triforia. So of course this retail release includes a new unmasked head for Trey, but it also includes a new version of the Golden Power Staff as well as a recolor of the energy effect included with the last release. But are there more differences between these two Gold Rangers? You’ll have to read the full review to find out!

“Let’s try my gorilla strength!”

Ravi Shaw was meant to be a Power Ranger. Selected & trained by Grid Battleforce, Ravi earned his place & his power with his teammates. But before they could become Rangers, Blaze & Roxy became something else. Loyal Avatars of Evox! Ravi’s former comrades would have done the same to him too if not for the intervention of Devon Daniels & Zoey Reeves. Joining his new allies, Ravi’s body is infused with Morph-X energy as well as gorilla DNA, turning him into the mighty Beast Morphers Blue Ranger!

Joining the likes of the Beast Morphers Red & Gold Rangers, the Blue Ranger is the third member of his team to make it to the Lightning Collection. With the evil ranger Blaze coming up in Wave 4 of the line, this group of characters continues to expand as well. As is, the Blue Ranger is another welcome member of the team! Packing a (literal!) punch, the Blue Ranger includes two effect parts as well as the Beast-X Saber and even a civilian head featuring the likeness of Ravi’s actor, Jazz Baduwalia!

“I won’t lose myself anymore.
This power is all mine now!”

The Hazard Trigger. With it, Sento Kiryu can gain the upper hand in any fight, becoming an unstoppable berserker in the process. To contain the uncontrollable power, he develops a new bottle to channel his strength and consciousness. Surpassing the genius of Takumi Katsuragi, the Full Full Rabbit Tank Bottle creates Kamen Rider Build Rabbit Rabbit Form! Representing his home Seito in the 3-round battle, Build will test his new power against the dangerous Kamen Rider Rogue.

Rabbit Rabbit Form joins an ever expanding line up of figures from the world of Build. An extensive repaint/retool of the base rabbit/tank mold and it’s variations, rabbit rabbit evokes the true power of the Rider System. With the added bulk of it’s new armor, it’s an intimidating yet heroic design, and it’s armed with a brand new weapon in the form of the Full Bottle Buster. Getting ever closer to Build’s later seasons forms, this one will please many fans until the hopefully eventual release of Build Genius Form.

We’ve assembled a full 80 image gallery of  Build Rabbit Rabbit Form, which you can see in our full gallery thread after the jump.

“I am Sir Ivan, Knight of Zandar!”

The Red Ranger spent a decade searching for his father. Suspecting that Fury is the key to the disappearance of James Navarro, Tyler won’t give up until his father’s fate is known. Now, thanks to the Gold Energem the secret hidden deep within Fury, is out! Fury has held his host prisoner for hundreds of years, but now nothing can contain this 800 year old warrior! The truth of James Navarro is still a mystery, but a piece of history has been found. Ivan, the Knight of Zandar awakens from his ancient slumber as the Dino Charge Gold Ranger! And he owes Fury, about 8 centuries of payback.

The Dino Charge Gold Ranger is the third Gold Ranger that the Lightning Collection has given us so far, as well as the second Dino Charge ranger. Released in the recent Wave 3 alongside the likes of Lord Drakkon, Dino Charge Gold builds off the previous DC Red Ranger mold. While a few details are missing in the final figure, and the color will be hotly debated, this is another great addition to any Power Rangers collection. Armed with the Gold Ptera Morpher and Ptera Saber, the Gold Ranger even includes a civilian head featuring the like of Ivan’s actor, Davi Santos!

“Wake up!” 

Struggling with the duality of his human & Fangire parentage, Wataru Kurenai protected humanity from his own monstrous kind. As Kamen Rider Kiva, Wataru fought for justice, but he also needed a ride. Built by the mysterious Motobat the 16th, and entrusted to Kiva by Kivat Bat III, the Machine Kivaa is a mighty machine worthy of the Fangire king!

Tamashii Nations has done Kamen Rider Kiva fans an incredible solid with this release. The Machine Kivaa Option Parts Set gives fans everything they could possibly want to compliment their Kiva collections. Not only do we get the the Machine Kivaa, a stylish modification of the base Honda Shadow 750 model, but also Kiva’s other signature props. The regal throne we see Kiva sat upon often, particularly in the series opening, as well as the Bloody Rose. The magnificent violin created and played by Wataru’s father, Otoya. This set really is a love letter to a show that’s often derided, but is absolutely one of the most stylish series out there.

“Unleash the power!”

Arriving in Amber Beach to find his missing father, Tyler Navarro could never imagine what really lay ahead for him. By chance both he and soon to be allies make contact with the Energems! Ancient crystals that channel the Morphin Grid and the energy of the universe. Entrusted to the ancient dinosaurs by the mysterious Keeper, these Energems have chosen Tyler and the others to be the next generation of Power Rangers! To defend the Earth, to defeat the villainous Sledge and his crew, to unlock the ultimate power of the universe, in a world full of strife the Dino Charge Red Ranger fights to survive!

The Lightning Collection line has been going strong for the better part of a year now. Pumping out regular releases in the form of full waves, two-packs, and store exclusive single figures has made it hard to keep up on occasion. But finally we’ve made our way back around to finish off Wave 1 with the Dino Charge Red Ranger!  An overlooked gem of the first wave, DC Red is a solidly constructed figure with a lot more fine detail than you notice at first glance. Armed with the Dino Charge Morpher, the Dino Saber, an effect part, extra hands, and an unmasked head, this figure is the total package.
