Kamen Rider Zero-One represents the end of an era in more ways than one. Seiji Takaiwa is a name that most fans of Tokusatsu will be familiar with. For those unfamiliar: he’s a stunt actor that started with Kamen Rider Black RX as Riderman and has since gone to perform stunt work for every single titular Heisei Kamen Rider with the exception of Kamen Rider Kuuga. He also did stunt work in Super Sentai as various Red Ranger and DragonRanger from Kyoryu Sentai Zyuranger.

In an article by Dengeki Hobby, it was confirmed that the legendary suit actor will be passing the torch to Yuya Nawata whom will be performing the suit stunt work for Kamen Rider Zero-One.

Yuya Nawata’s been around the Tokusatsu scene since Kamen Rider Hibiki. Most recently, he performed the suit work for Kamen Rider Geiz in addition to Kamen Rider Cronus and Amazon Neo Alpha.

Of course, this doesn’t mean that Takaiwa is retiring just yet but it seems that his involvement with lead roles will lessen somewhat. Kamen Rider Zero-One will be premiering September 1st 2019, we’ll be sure to provide you with more updates on this exciting new entry into the Kamen Rider series. In the meantime, make the jump to our discussion thread and let us know what you think of this latest update.

Seen most recently at the Tamashii Nations Tokyo event in April, Bandai has just confirmed release details for the upcoming S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Gamedeus Cronus!

Taking a roundabout way to getting released, Gamedeus Cronus has been seen in one form or another at several Tamashii events. At one point only the Deus Rusher & Deus Rampart sword & shield were seen, being held by a standard Cronus Figuart. Thankfully today’s new images not only confirm it’s status as a Tamashii Web Exclusive, but also it’s October 2019 release window and 7150 yen price.

Since this is an exclusive, be sure to watch your preferred sites or middleman services for pre-orders.

“So you think you have what it takes to obtain the legendary power?”
“The fact that I’m here is proof enough.”

A free but guilty man, Masamune Dan sought to take back his company, defeat his son, and discontinue those pesky Kamen Riders. Resilient to all strains of the Bugster virus, Masamune was uniquely worthy to obtain the power of the one meant to defeat Gamedeus. With the ability to Pause & Restart, Masamune would become Kamen Rider Cronus! But Taiga Hanaya was the first rider chosen to fight the Bugsters. And as Kamen Rider Snipe he saved countless lives. In order to stop Masamune’s final plot, Taiga exposed himself to Kamen Rider Chronicle and using his Gamer Driver and two Chronicle Gashats, he’ll take on Cronus as, Kamen Rider Cronus!?

S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Cronus is a bit of a unique release. While we all know Masamune Dan as the menacing Cronus with his ability to control time, Taiga also proved himself worthy of the power near the series finale and would even go on to use this power once more in the Another Ending Trilogy. This figure can represent either version of the suit! While it comes standard with Masamune’s Buggle Driver Zwei, an alternate Gamer Driver with Chronicle Gashats is included as well so to display the figure as Taiga! Will your own Cronus be the hero or the villain of your collection. I’m a sucker and I bought two of them!

We’ve attached the full gallery of S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Cronus to this post but you can also check out the full review thread by clicking “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post. Next time;

Tamashii Nations’ Akiba Showroom recently updated it’s displays, and among them is a brand new figure as well as a few returning faces from previous events!

First up is the first appearance of S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Grease, who like his fellow Sclash Driver user Cross-X charge utilises translucent plastic parts on the face and chest. There is no release date information for the Kamen Rider Build character as of yet, however at the time of writing it is being reported as a Tamashii web exclusive.

Next up are two more figures from Kamen Rider Ex-Aid – Kamen Rider Cronus and Kamen Rider Genm God Maximum Gamer Level 1000000000. These figures have been seen at previous Tamashii events, and although Genm is a repaint of the (currently unreleased) Kamen Rider Ex-Aid Maximum Gamer Level 99 figure it’s reappearance here has been well-timed with the release of the Kamen Rider Ex-Aid: Another Ending V-Cinema trilogy in which it debuts. Again, neither of these figures currently have release dates but Cronus is being reported as a web exclusive.

Check out the full-sized images after the jump and we’ll bring you more information on these figures as it comes!

The last big reveal of the day comes from the beloved Kamen Rider Ex-Aid series. Shown off on display is none other than the final boss himself – Kamen Rider Cronus! Displayed with a Gamer Driver (aka Gamer Driver version), Kamen Rider Cronus looks absolutely glorious.

Rumor from @_Erasu on Twitter, from a trusted source, is that the Kamen Rider Cronus will come with both the Gamer Driver and Bugster-type versions of belts. Stay tuned for more information and, hopefully, better pictures! Picture courtesy of @YongouOYander on Twitter.’
