The Emissary of Hell, Spider-Man! 

My Shiny Toy Robots returns with another tokusatsu review, this time looking back on the 1978 collaboration between the Toei Company and Marvel Comics – Spider-Man!

Whilst many fans remember this series for the giant robot Leopardon and what its introduction did for the Super Sentai franchise, Toei’s Spider-Man has so much more to offer as well – and isn’t as far away from the spirit of the original Spidey as some would have you believe.

Please check out the review and let us know your thoughts on Toei’s Spider-Man in the thread linked!

If you’re a fan of new tokusatsu-inspired properties then 2021 is shaping up to be a banner year for you.  First, we had Radiant Black launch earlier this month and inside we got our first look at another new property coming – Inferno Girl Red!

This project will be tied to a Kickstarter that launches in March.  We don’t know much more about the property aside from a character sheet of our main character – Cássia Costa.  More details will be announced when the Kickstarter goes live and from our first look at things – we’re 100% on board!

Inferno Girl Red is brought to you by writer Mat Groom (Self/Made, Rise of Ultraman, and the Ranger Danger podcast), artist Erica D’urso (Prison Witch, Xena Warrior Princess, Marvel Comics), colors by Rico Renzi (Gwenom vs Carnage, The Unbeatable Squirrel Girl, Quicksilver, Spider-Gwen), letters by Becca Carey (Radiant Black).  The book will be edited by Kyle Higgins (Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, The Rise of Ultraman, Radiant Black, Winter Soldier, Nightwing, Batman Beyond).

Stay tuned for more details.

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.

Today the production team behind the Denkou Choujin Gridman revival project, SSSS Gridman, held a live event called Gridman Special Night to promote the October premiere of the series.

The event featured interviews with the cast and crew, hi-res looks at character & kaiju designs, and a surprising look at a physical live action suit for SSSS Gridman! This suit was surely produced for promotional purposes rather than any real use in a live action production, but it’s unquestionable just how good it looks standing next to the original Gridman. Hopefully this isn’t the last we’ve seen of it.

SSSS Gridman officially premieres this October!

While they never officially announced the the Power Rangers Zeo Legacy Super Zeo Gems, the listing was discovered (and shared) with us via Amazon.com earlier this year. Today on Twitter, Bandai America responded to @PowerRangerTalk stating: “Yeah this one unfortunately isn’t happening anymore. Again, with the changeover a lot of things have been thrown into limbo/taken off the table. The good news is, there are still a few items up our sleeve that we haven’t announced yet that we’re extremely excited about!”.

However, they do have some surprises left in store for the Power Rangers line before Hasbro takes over in Spring 2019. Stay tuned for more news and information from Bandai America here at TokuNation!
