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.

Hot off the heels of the first Another Watch set, P-Bandai was quick to announce the follow up: Another Watch Vol.2 was just recently revealed.

Another Watch Vol.2 will feature the second batch of Another Riders: Another Gaim, Another OOO, Another Den-O, and finally Another W along with two more yet to be announced Another Riders.

No release info was given at the time of this writing, though pre-orders are expected to go live December 3rd 2018. If the first set is anything to go by, we could expect a similar price point of 3,240 yen. Stay tuned, and we’ll provide you with more info as it becomes available.

“Time Mazine!”

The massive mecha known as the Time Mazine is the last line of defense between the rebels of 2068 & the dark overlord Oma Zi-O. These mass produced defenders have even been known to be used by the Time Jackers… Sougo Tokiwa was given access to one thanks to Tsukuyomi travelling back in time from this bleak future. A means of travel to the eras of the legendary riders that preceded him, Sougo as the present day Kamen Rider Zi-O will gain the powers of the past to save (or dominate) the future!

DX Time Mazine is the big DX toy of the line this year. In years past it was preceded by things like Captain Ghost, Tridoron, Suika Arms, and Wizardragon. While we don’t get to see a lot of the big items each year because of CG costs, Time Mazine is used fairly often actually. The DX toy winds up being one of the best articulated mecha we’ve gotten in a while (take that Sentai!) and is completely interactive with the Ride Watches of the toyline. This figure is also scaled to work with the Rider Kicks RKF line and even transforms to vehicle mode!

We’ve attached the full gallery of DX Time Mazine to this article, but you can also read up on our full review of the figure by clicking “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post. Later this week, we’ll be back with the legendary warrior, S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Cronus!

Kamen Rider Zi-O’s first big feature film is headed to theaters December 22nd with Heisei Generations Forever. The third, and supposedly final installment in the Generations trilogy. While Zi-O’s TV series has already featured a number of Another Riders and a handful of proper Rider cameos, we now know that Heisei Generations Forever will feature the debut of 3 more such creatures.

According to Cinema Today JP, we now know that Another W, Another Den-O, and a brand new Imagin linked to Another Den-O, Futaros Imagin, will all make their debut in this film. Roughly speaking it would seem the implied meaning of the Futaros’ name is negative or minus, so this character makes sense to be the contract Imagin of Another Den-O (too bad Negataros was already taken!). But time will tell if this character is or is not, another foil for our heroes.  Both Another W & Den-O are sporting some truly wicked designs as previous Another Riders have.

RIDER TIME!

Rejoice! For our lord Kamen Rider Zi-O has gained the power of three Kamen Riders: Kamen Rider Zi-O Hibiki, Den-O & Kabuto Armor Times are here.

Ahead of their respective DX Ride Watch releases which collectors in Japan have already managed to get their hands on. Our first look at these spiffy new armors comes from the very packages themselves which showcases what these armors should look like if and when Kamen Rider Zi-O decides to use them. These photos come courtesy of Japanese Twitter user @ultraridXXR.

Do note that these forms will be appearing in the Ganbarising arcade games there may be a possibility of these being used in a movie somewhere down the line but nothing official has been announced as of this writing. These may be considered spoilers, so be sure to make the jump at your own risk!

As you might recall, Tamashii Nations announced the S.H.Figuarts Heisei Riders Rising Project to coincide with the launch of Kamen Rider Zi-O and the end of the Heisei Era. Many are eager to see what will come of this announcement, and our first one comes in the form of the S.H.Figuarts 20 Kamen Rider Kicks reissues of older S.H.Figuarts Kamen Rider figures.


What sets these Figuarts apart from their first releases is the fact that they’ll include special Tamashii Act stage stands: these stands include parts that will mimic one of Kamen Rider Zi-O’s Ride Watches in appearances and of course they’ll be themed after each corresponding Rider.

Each of these Figuarts will cost 5400 yen a piece, going in order, our first batch of releases will include Kamen Riders Build, Faiz, Gaim, Ex-Aid Blade, Den-O, Drive, and Ryuki with Drive and Den-O coming out January 2019.

This will be an excellent opportunity for those that may have missed out on these figures the first time around, or for those new to the fandom looking to dive head first into the fan favorite S.H.Figuarts line.

With Kamen Rider Zi-O heralding the end of the Heisei Era for Kamen Rider, and in commemoration of the 20th Heisei Rider himself, Tamashii Nations has announced the S.H. Figuarts Heisei Riders Rising Project!

The Rising Project announcement promises the reveal of 3 new Heisei Rider figuarts in the near future. The first of these 3 riders will be revealed on August 24th. Currently speculation is running wild as to what these 3 figures will actually be. Will this be Kiva’s time? There’s Zi-O which begins airing next month  as well, so now would be an ideal time to reveal his first figuart. Then there’s the possibility that 1 or more of these figures could be a Shinkocchou Seihou renewal of an out of date release like OOO, Fourze, or even Faiz.

Exactly who these 3 Heisei Riders are, is something we’ll be watching closely in the coming weeks. So we’ll be sure to keep the community up to date!

“Ore, Sanjou!”

Rumors are circulating that in the next few weeks, at Tamashii Nations 2017, we could see a Shinkocchou Seihou release for Kamen Rider Den-O. The original Sword Form figuart itself was released over 5 years ago as well. With Tamashii Nations making headway through the backlog of Heisei Riders receiving this treatment Den-O very likely could be next. In light of these rumors we’ve decided to take a look back at my namesake with a brand new and up to date gallery of S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Den-O Sword Form!

Den-O Sword Form may be a bit of an older release, but you know what it still has a lot of charm despite the faults we can recognize today. Serving as the first nice 1/12 scale collector figure for Den-O, it set the bar for the numerous releases that would follow it. Den-O was packed out with accessories as well including two forms for the Dengasher, a set of Full Charge effect parts, a Rider Pass, multiple sets of hands and even a set of swap out hip holsters. Mold flaws aside, Den-O Sword Form was a great release for it’s time. But if we indeed are looking at the prospect of a Shinkocchou Seihou release in the near future, I welcome it.

We’ve assembled a full 120 image gallery of S.H. Figuarts Den-O Sword Form. The entire gallery is attached to this post but you can also read through an extensive review of the figure by clicking “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post. We’ll check back in a couple weeks with news from Tamashii Nations 2017, wheter there’s a Seihou Den-O or not.

Kamen Rider Climax Fighters was announced not too long ago for the Playstation 4. It’s a fighting game featuring all titular 19 Hesei-era Kamen Riders – from Kamen Rider Kuuga to Kamen Rider Build. Are there more? Possibly – we have to wait and see. But the big news coming today, courtesy of Playstation Lifestyle, is that Kamen Rider Climax Fighters will be the first main Kamen Rider game to receive localizations throughout Asia.

Why is that news? Well, because Bandai Namco localizations in certain areas of Asia – such as Southeastern Asia – receive the game in English. That’s right – it looks as if Bandai Namco will release the game in Southeastern Asia in the English language (text-wise, at least).

While a release of Kamen Rider Climax Fighters in the West is absolutely slim at best, a chance for fans to import the game in English at the very least seems high. We’ve included pictures courtesy of Playstation Lifestyle in the article so check it out!
