In addition, the magazine scans have revealed the next general of the Kibaoni to revive: Tsugomori Masakage. Wil the Ninningers be able to overcome this latest evil? Only time will tell!

Ahead of it’s July release, Premium Bandai has just shown off a display copy of their upcoming Super Sentai Artisan Shinobimaru!

This highly poseable recreation of Shinobimaru is a full on replacement for the standard DX toy that can take it’s place in the set of the combined Shurikenjin. Though it can’t replicate Shinobimaru’s arm mode it’s incredibly faithful robot mode and articulation has piqued the interest of many collectors.

Super Sentai Artisan Shinobimaru orders will remain open through May 8th, and it will retail for 5378 yen upon release!

The first images of the third-quarter toys for Shuriken Sentai Ninninger have come online! While the images are low-quality, the details for these new releases correspond perfectly with the rumors we began hearing this week!

*First up is the Chozetsu Changer! This wrist brace allows the Ninningers to transform into a new heavily-armored Chozetsu– meaning transcendent– form! Current rumors suggest only one Ninninger at a time may use this upgrade, but that detail is unconfirmed.

*Next, the new Mecha- Lion HaOh! A gigantic black lion controlled by Akaninger Chozetsu, armed with twin shurikens. The Lion can combine with ShurikenJin and Bison King to create HaOh ShurikenJin– a MASSIVE combination with ShurikenJin controlling an even larger robot from the front seat!

*Last but certainly not least is a special new release for the Ninningers’ summer movie (title and release details still unconfirmed at the time of writing). This new Otomo-nin is DinoMaru, an orange Tyrannosaurus that creates a drill-sword for ShurikenJin!

Definitely some exciting new elements coming soon for the 39th Super Sentai Series!

As is usual these rumors come from the reliable dukemon22, currently posted up over at Rangerboard.com. We can’t yet confirm the validity of this info at this time so take this information as rumor, but this sound very very promising.

DX LionHaOh (9800 yen): A large castle type mecha with a Lion motif piloted by Akaninger Chouzetsu (see below for that one). When Shurikenjin & Bison King combine with it Shurikenjin indeed sits in the throne like the Otomonin! Combined form is named HaOh Shurikenjin.

Shoubu Chozetsu Changer (Battle Transcendance Changer): Allows Akaninger to become Akaninger Chouzetsu. A fully armored soldier form with castle like features as well. Aoninger & Kininger can also access this form. The changer is wrist worn & apparently includes a Lion type Shuriken and another with the kanji for “Shoubu” on it. The Changer can combine with the Ichibantou to form the Ichiban Shoubu Gatana.

Otomin Series EX DinoMaru (3800 yen): And orange Dinosaur type remold of Paonmaru with a drill for a tail. Exclusive to the Ninninger summer movie, it combines to form Dino Shurikenjin.

UFO washoi!

TokuNation returns to the team of ninjas that refuses to hide with Shuriken Sentai Ninninger! And today we’re taking a look at the second release in the Otomonin series of additional mecha, DX UFOmaru!

Apparently the original Otomonin, UFOmaru is the being which all of the Ninninger’s mecha technology is based on. Rather interestingly UFOmaru is also the first and so far only literal UFO based mecha in Super Sentai. We’ve had spaceships in the past but this one takes the cake. An interesting design, UFOmaru can alternate between the traditional “saucer” mode and his own unique robot form that stands tall with Paonmaru & Shinobimaru. When used in place of Shinobimaru, Shurikenjin UFO is formed! Armed with the 3-barrelled UFOmaru Launcher, Shurikenjin UFO succeeds in being another new and unique combination that’s a welcome breath of fresh air.

Click “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post in order to see a comprehensive gallery of over 50 images as well as a full review for DX UFOmaru. We’ll see you again in a few weeks for our next ninja themed gallery installment with DX Bison Buggy & Rodeomaru!
