RIDER TIME!

As you might recall, we got a nice teaser from Bandai announcing that a SODO set for the fan favorites Another Riders was coming down the pipeline, and we finally have our first look at these beauties thanks to some new photos that were recently released.

SODO Another1 will contain four Another Riders: Another Ex-Aid, Another Build, Another Faiz, and Another Gaim the set will release in July 2019.

With this being numbered as the first set, one can only hope that we’ll see the other Another Riders somewhere down the road.

“I think I was destined to choose this path.”

Little did Sougo Tokiwa know, his childhood dreams of being a great king were prophetic in a way. Should they ever come to pass, they could create the desolate future ruled by Sougo’s own evil self, the overlord Oma Zi-O! In the present, Sougo journey’s down the path of the overlord, defeating Another Riders as Kamen Rider Zi-O! But with the Day of Oma approaching, will Zi-O become the evil overlord? Or will Kamen Rider Geiz, the Time Jackers, Kamen Rider Woz, or even Kamen Rider Decade, manage to contain his power? Time, will tell…

S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Zi-O kicks off this year’s new Figuarts sub-line as a pretty solid release. While assuredly many will take issue with this figure’s lack of accessories (which are included with the Ride Striker) this figure has a lot to offer and lots of personality. Zi-O is a well rounded, well articulated figure that fits in fantastically with mainline figuarts as well Shinkocchou Seihou releases. Though Seihou Kamen Rider Kiva still hasn’t been released, seeing Zi-O with his fellow lead riders is still quite the sight. And if you happen to have a DX Time Mazine as I do, you’ll find that Figuarts Zi-O works quite well with him. Zi-O also compliments Shinkocchou Seihou Kamen Rider Decade marvelously.

We’ve attached the full 60+ image gallery to this post, but you can also check out the full review of Kamen Rider Zi-O by clicking “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post. Next time, things heat up, with our gallery of Shinkocchou Seihou Kamen Rider W Heat/Metal!

Today, Toei began streaming a new video promoting the upcoming Kamen Rider Heisei Generations Forever film (which comes out in two days!). But rather than just a new teaser or trailer for the film, this video previews the films theme song, which is itself a compilation and re-mix of the Opening Themes for all 20 Heisei Riders!

Titled “Heisei Generations Forever Medley D.A. Re-Build Mix” this song arranges clips from each of the 20 Heisei Rider OP’s into one giant song, set to a variety of archival footage as well as new scenes from the soon to be released film itself.  This new theme was arranged by Daisuke Asakura.

Kamen Rider Heisei Generations Forever hits Japanese theaters on December 22nd! Best to dodge spoilers on social media for a bit, but if you’d like to join in on our ongoing discussion of the film, feel free to pop into our discussion thread linked below.

“Black Hazard! Oh no!”

Toku Toy Box is kicking off strong this year with a dangerous and deadly gallery from Kamen Rider Build!  An item of unmatched power, based upon something even more ancient and powerful, the Hazard Trigger was given to Sento Kiryu by Blood Stalk. Using it’s uncontrollable power, the black hazard, Kamen Rider Build Rabbit Tank Hazard Form emerges! For better or worse Sento must use this dangerous power to fight. Now we take a look at the Tamashii Nations 2018 event exclusive S.H. Figuart of this form!

A brilliant repaint and remold of the original Build Rabbit/Tank mold, Build Hazard is sleek and sexy. A form that gives off an aura of power and danger, Hazard Form is easily one of the best Build releases in the line so far. All of the same standard articulation from the original mold is back, but we get a really gorgeous and fierce new helmet design and some fantastic new shoulder pad designs. While Hazard includes a few hands for posing, the truly impressive accessories with this figure are the Hawk/Gattling Hazard Form parts! We get a new head, the Hawk Gattlinger weapon, and the Taka & Gattling Full Bottles. More Figuarts should come with swap out accessories such as this.

We’ve attached the full 80 image gallery of this impressive release to this post, but you can also check out our lengthy review by clicking the link below. Just click “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” to be taken to our full review thread! In a couple days we’ll be back with another Toku Toy Box gallery, and this time, it’ll be of a truly impressive custom figure we’ve been waiting over a year to share with you!

A new round of magazine scans has hit the Internet, providing fans with a couple insights on the further adventures of Kamen Rider Zi-O!

Next up for the time-hopping Riders is a visit to the world of Kamen Rider Gaim! The fan-favorite Fruit Samurai offers a brand-new power set, creating Kamen Rider Gaim RideArmor! This new Armor takes the form of Gami’s legendary LockSeeds and unfolds after attaching to Zi-O’s head. But the Riders must defeat the monstrous Another Gaim in order to obtain this new power…

But Zi-O isn’t the ONLY one receiving an upgrade! The trusty Time Majin gains the ability to channel RiderWatches and use new attacks- the powers of Kamen Rider OOO are displayed for effect. And it seems Time Majin will also be able to channel the powers of previous Rider Vehicles- new configurations are shown based on the Captain Ghost from Kamen Rider Ghost and Castle Doran from Kamen Rider Kiva.

Finally, a brief teaser for the upcoming Heisei Generations FOREVER movie is included. Zi-O will have to team up with Kamen Rider Build to stop a threat greater than all Riders!

Definitely some exciting adventures to close out the Heisei-Era Kamen Riders! Stay tuned to TokuNation as we keep you up to date on all Kamen Rider Zi-O reveals.

“Best Match!”

Revealed yesterday during Tamashii Nations 2018, we now have our first clear images of S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Build Rabbit Dragon Form!

Originally under a photo ban with a variety of other items at the show, Build Rabbit Dragon can now be seen in all it’s golden & silver glory. An extensive repaint of the Rabbit Tank mold, with some new dragon parts courtesy of Cross-Z, this form represents the fusion of Sento & Banjou’s powers as seen *very* briefly in the series finale. Could something like this actually see release? Even as a limited web exclusive? I personally hope so, but time will tell.
