Bandai have recently updated the Tamashii Nations website with new images of the forthcoming Kamen Rider Gaim S.H. Figuarts, announcing a special campaign to coincide with the release of Kamen Rider Gaim and Baron in May.

According to translation provided by Herotaku, a special stand will be included with Gaim while a Byōbu backdrop will come with Baron. Both figures will retail for 4104 yen each.

What’s also exciting about these images is we get our first look at S.H. Figuarts Ryugen and Zangetsu, whose release dates are yet to be confirmed!

The hottest thing in tokusatsu right now is Kamen Rider Gaim, and the hottest toys from that series are the Arms Change figures, which feature transformable fruits that change from fruit to armor, just like on the show! After reports came out that stated that Kamen Rider Gaim is setting franchise records for merchandise sales, fans everywhere began to fear that corners would be cut in production for supply to meet the demand (you can’t sell toys if you don’t have any left to sell!). Our very own baltmatrix finally got his set in (ask him about SAL vs EMS shipping!) and took the time to do a video review! Check it out below!

baltmatrix is a popular video reviewer for many of YOUR favorite toys – from tokusatsu toys like the Arms Change series to Super Sentai and Power Rangers Megazords, to the always collectible Transformers figures. If you haven’t already, click here and subscribe to his reviews. This way, you never miss a beat and you’ll know when to watch out for floppy joints and what to expect when you finally get that brand new action figure you’ve been waiting for!

What do you think? Do Arms Change Mango & Kiwi meet the same standards set from all the previous releases, or are they a step above or below? Did Bandai of Japan try to be too innovative with this set, or was it just enough? Join us in the discussion!

After what seemed like the longest hiatus in the history of television (it was a week, but a REALLY long week!), the next subtitled episode of Kamen Rider Gaim is available courtesy the folks of Aesir Subs. When we last left our heroes, they had discovered some horrible truths about themselves, their Sengoku Drivers, and about Yggdrasill.

In this episode, “The New Generation Riders Appear!”, we rejoin Kouta and Micchy after the events from the previous episode. We also get a look in to the past of Kaito and Mai – and learn an interesting connection that they share which you just know will become a focal point of the series later on! We also catch up with Hase, who continues to deal with the events that transpired to him from the previous episode. Jonouchi and Oren Pierre Alfonzo have some screen time, and of course, the debut of the first Energy Rider! And some previews for Episode 13 that will BLOW YOU AWAY!

What are you waiting for? Come join the discussion and VOTE on the episode! And if you haven’t seen every episode up until now, you can still catch up using our Ultimate Kamen Rider Gaim Resource Thread – it has episode summaries up till the latest episode! We’ll see you in discussion! HENSHIN!

Bandai is at it yet again with more collectible trinkets of your favorite Legend Heroes! The Arms Change line for Kamen Rider Gaim has proven to be one of Bandai of Japan’s biggest sellers this season so cashing in on that success with this unique set was a no brainer. Much like Ranger Keys, Rider Rings, and all those that came before it, Legend sets sell incredibly well.

Featured in Kamen Rider x Kamen Rider Gaim & Wizard: The Fateful Sengoku Movie Battle the Legend Rider Arms are this years movie exclusive power up. Generally reserved for the main rider, the main 4 riders from the series; Gaim (Wizard), Baron (OOO), Ryugen (W), Zangetsu (Fourze) each receive the “Arms” of a senior rider.

With the high sales of the Arms Change line and the in demand nature of this set, surely Bandai knows they can cash in on us pretty hard by making more Legend Arms? We can only hope! To check our or full gallery of this interesting set click “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post. More Arms Change galleries to come this week!
