“WAKE UP!”

Shy, anxious, fearful, Wataru Kurenai would rather craft violins like his father Otoya. But as the son of the Fangire Queen as well, he was destined to become Kamen Rider Kiva, the Fangire King! And like the King’s before him Wataru has one trusted partner, a member of the Kivat family, Kivat Bat III. With Kivat in tow, Wataru sets out to fight Fangires and protect humanity, just as his father did (occasionally) 20 years prior. Now it’s time to break the chains on a review we’ve waited years for with S.H. Figuarts Shinkocchou Seihou Kamen Rider Kiva!

As the Heisei Era ends, Tamashii Nations has at long last delivered on the promise of completing the 20 Heisei Riders! With Kamen Rider Kiva, the entire lineup of main riders is complete, and let me say, it’s incredibly satisfying. Kiva brings to a close an era of incredible heroes and does so in gorgeous fashion. With the trademark accuracy and engineering of the Seihou line, Kiva looks as though he walked right off the set. Including his 6 Fuestles, the Hell’s Gate leg for his Rider Kick, a Ridewatch Tamashii Stage, and the ever present Kivat Bat III, Kiva is a tremendously welcome sight to any Kamen Rider collection.

You can check out our full 100 image gallery below by clicking “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums at the bottom of this post. It features not only the 20 Heisei Riders, but also as many Kiva cameos as I could make happen including TV riders Ixa, Rising Ixa, Emperor Kiva, & Dark Kiva, movie villains Kamen Riders Rey and Arc, & even Decade’s own Kiva-La! Please join in the discussion and let us know what you think of this release which finally closes out the Heisei Era. Next time, it’s Armor Time with a brand new gallery from Kamen Rider Zi-O!

A new round of magazine scans has begun circulating the Internet, giving fans a few hints at the upcoming adventures of Kamen Rider Zi-O!

Taking center stage this month is Zi-O’s ultimate configuration- Kamen Rider Zi-O Ohma Form! An upgrade based on his tyrannical future self, this form is stronger than any previously used by the King Of Time- even channeling the powers of all previous Kamen Rider Final Forms! The exact origins of Ohma Form are not detailed; this story will be told in full during the upcoming summer movie Over Quartzer.

And it seems Kamen Rider Geiz also has a new form on the horizon! An upcoming Hyper Battle DVD is teased, with Geiz gaining new powers based on Kamen Rider Ghost thanks to a new RideWatch– the Bibiru RideWatch!

Last but not least, it seems some passing-through Kamen Riders will be returning once again! Both Kamen Rider Decade and Kamen Rider DiEnd will appear in the series, once again grappling with control over Rider history.

Definitely some exciting times ahead for Kamen Rider fans! Stay tuned to TokuNation as we keep you up to date on all Kamen Rider Zi-O reveals!

Just a Passing Through Kamen Rider Remember It!

A brand new S.H.Figuarts Kamen Rider Zi-O release was just recently revealed thanks to some data mining from Twitter user Tokullector. As the name suggests: it is the Heir of All Riders acquiring the power of the Destroyer of Worlds himself: S.H.Figuarts Kamen Rider Zi-O Decade Armor!

At the moment, no price or release date was given. Given that Tokullector most likely data mined the photos, we can only assume that this will be a P-Bandai release though nothing has been confirmed as of this writing.

What we can confirm that this will include the HeiSaber and Jikan Grade in sword mode as part of his accessory count. Do stay tuned, and we’ll be sure to bring you more info as it’s made available. 

 

UPDATE:

The Pre-order is now live! S.H.Figuarts Kamen Rider Zi-O Decade Armor will retail for 7020 yen and will release in August.

KAMEN RIDE…DECADE!

As you might recall, Bandai teased us with the prospects of a SO-DO Kamen Rider Shinobi in the last Zi-O Watcher update. Since that last update some weeks ago, a fresh batch for the latest wave of SO-DO: SO-DO Ride Plus is here.

SO-DO Ride Plus does indeed come with the aforementioned Kamen Rider Shinobi, along with the two other Future Riders: Kamen Rider Kikai and Kamen Rider Quiz. To fill out this box, we have the Destroyer of worlds himself: Kamen Rider Decade!

A separate accessory box will include some new goodies: like the Neo DecaDriver for starters in addition to the older belt, the Violent Emotion head, a hand holding a Kamen Rider Build form change card, along with two weapons: The Ride Booker in both sword and gun mode, and G4’s Gigan Missle Launcher.

SO-DO Ride-Plus will be released in June 2019 at 5,400 yen for a complete box.

A pair of new magazine scans for Kamen Rider Zi-O have just been released!

At last, Kamen Rider Geiz is receiving an upgraded form- officially known as Kamen Rider Geiz Revive! This form is activated by a new hourglass-based RideWatch and has multiple configurations- which can be changed by rotating the RideWatch. The Orange form utilizes defensive abilities, while the Blue form allows for powerful attacks.

In addition, the scans confirm the return of fan-favorite Masahiro Inoue to the series! The Destroyer Of Worlds has taken on a new role- this time as a police officer. But just what is Kamen Rider Decade up to now?! Only time will tell!

Stay tuned to TokuNation for all Kamen Rider reveals!

“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!

“Kamen Ride.”

Exactly 1 month ago, Bandai’s Figuarts Blog teased the return of a popular figure to the line. Seeing yet another surge in his already immense popularity thanks to a crossover in Kamen Rider Zi-O, Masahiro Inoue’s Kadoya Tsukasa/Kamen Rider Decade is coming back to destroy collector’s wallets once again with an updated Figuarts release!

The fantastic S.H. Figuarts Shinkocchou Seihou Kamen Rider Decade is returning in a new Neo Decadriver Version, featuring the updated accessory used by Tsukasa as of his Zi-O appearances. It’s quite likely that since this version of the figure does indeed feature the Neo Decadriver that it will also come with the back half of the Heisei Rider cards of W through Build. Other accessories, as well as specific yen pricing are not known at this time. This figure will be released in  August 2019. 

As is often the case with new reveals like this, we only have a selection of the proper official images as provided by @Tokullector. When the full listing goes up on the Tamashii Nations site we’ll update this story.

The most recent post on Bandai’s S.H. Figuarts blog cycles through the official images of the upcoming Ride Striker release for Kamen Rider Zi-O. The post details the accessories it comes with as well as it’s compatibility with both Zi-O and Geiz. However, at the end of the post is an odd teaser.

“次回、ジオウ＆ゲイツに強大な敵が立ちふさがる….!?”
“Next time, a mighty enemey will stop Zi-O & Geiz….!?”

The image attached is of the yet to be released Zi-O and Geiz Figuarts posed as though they’ve just lost a fight, while Decade stands tall in the background, back facing them. This image is very likely teasing something a lot of people have been hoping for since news of Decade’s return in Zi-O was made known. Given his turned back, this could very well indicate a potential reissue of the Shinkocchou Seihou Decade S.H. Figuart, though with the new magenta Neo Decadriver instead.

While there’s nothing more concrete to go on than that, the popular consensus is that we could be seeing the Destroyer of Worlds return to destroy our wallets once more. Time will tell if this is anything more than just a tease, and if it is, we’ll be sure to let you know!

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.
