This one is for the ultimate collectors, those with deep pockets, or those who fancy solid gold objects of their favorite toku heroes.

The precious metals dealer in Japan, Tokuriki Honten, is set to unveil and begin taking purchases of their upcoming solid gold statues of the original Kamen Rider at the upcoming Spring Gem Association meeting held April 24th and 25th. Available in two sizes, 3.94 inches or 7.87 inches, these extremely limited and extremely valuable items will be made to order and could be at your doorstep by the end of the year. The only thing stopping you? The price – look for a whopping $6,460.69 for the small statue, and an overwhelming $46,567.28 for the larger statue.

Anyone want to do a group buy? We can take turns having it in our collections one month at a time. Anyone?

Special thanks to one of our followers on Twitter, @CDawhare, for the heads up – as well as both Crunchyroll and AnimeAnime.jp!

This bit of news narrowly flew under the radar: building Block company Nanoblock will be releasing Kamen RIder themed sets later this month!

Found via Amazon Japan, we have listings for the four main Riders of Kamen Rider Gaim including Gaim himself, Baron, Ryugen, and Zangetsu, with the production images showing that you can replicated the pre-transformed giant fruit on head state somewhat, each Rider will come with his signature weapon.

Also joining the Gaim Riders, we have Kamen Rider 1whom will include enough pieces to build the Cyclone Bike in addition to a set that will include two Shocker Combatmen.

The sets aren’t too expensive with the Gaim riders costing 1680 yen a piece while the Shocker two pack at 1944 yen. Understandably, Kamen Rider 1 is a bit pricer at 2160 yen.

According to the Amazon Japan listings, these should be release on June 30th.

The good people at The Tokusatsu Network have come across some very interesting news in the latest issue of Japan’s “CinemaToday” magazine.

Hiroshi Fujioka, the very first Kamen Rider (who performed a multitude of stuntwork AND sang his own theme song in addition to his regular workload) will be joining the cast of “Hesei VS Showa: Movie War.”

Though Fujioka has performed voice work for tokusatsu previously (the most recent example being 2011’s “Let’s Go Kamen Rider”), this will be the first time in 38 Years that his character, Takeshi Hongo, has appeared & transformed on screen.

Truly this is a sign of good things to come! “Hesei VS Showa” premieres March 29, 2014 so stay tuned until then for further details!

UPDATED: New images of Rider 1 have been captured from a TV broadcast in Japan. These come via Heroshock, their source currently unknown. The new images show Fujioka in yet another Henshin pose AND riding New Cyclone!
