Though none of the Kamen Rider Drive S.H. Figuarts have been released yet Bandai is giving us an early tease of the many 1st run bonuses to be included with these figures!
In official images released today we get some solid looks at:
The penultimate form for Kamen Rider Drive has arrived on set! A few stealthily captured shots of Drive’s new upgrade, Type Formula, have just dropped and they give us our first glimpse of what we can expect.
A primarily blue F1-racer inspired form with a large spoiler on it’s back, these shots also indicate a bumper like protrusion on Drive’s chest. A green weapon, likely a tire accessory of some sort, is also shown. We’ll keep you updated as more information on this new form becomes available.
Additional toy catalog scans for Kamen Rider Drive’s third-quarter releases have come online! These appear to confirm Drive’s ultimate form, Type Tridoron!
Using a new Shift Car- the Shift Tridoron– Drive obtains a special ability called Tire Kakimazeru (meaning mix-up) that allows him to combine multiple Shift Cars for new attacks!
In addition, Drive will be obtaining two new vehicles: Ride Booster Red and Ride Booster Blue, a pair of go-karts that combine with the Tridoron for extra power.
Last but not least we also have confirmation of the next Tire Koukan action figure releases:
*TK-09 will be Type Formula, Drive’s next upgrade.
*TK-10 will be Kamen Rider Chaser!
*TK-11 will be Type Tridoron.
The next entry in the Tire Koukan line has just been revealed and TK-08 puts a new twist on the line!
Rather than just being one figure, TK-08 is 2-in-1! TK-08 is both Kamen Rider Drive Type Dead Heat AND Mach Type Dead Heat! By way of a rotating tire, belt, and helmet this figure can assume the form of either rider!
It’s a tiny image but for the moment this is our first look at how this figure will function. Stay tuned as more information and release details become available.
New magazine scans have revealed a special new power-up form for the current Kamen Rider series: Type DeadHeat!
DeadHeat is a form apparently shared by Kamen Rider Drive & Kamen Rider Mach, allowing one Rider to use the other’s abilities. The resulting hybrid form is definitely an unique visual for this series.
Type DeadHeat should be appearing this February! Tune in to Kamen Rider Drive and see what this new form is truly capable of!
Drive: Type Fruits! On Stage!
Kamen Rider Drive is knocking it out of the park again with another release in it’s Tire Koukan toy line, TK-SP Kamen Rider Drive Type Fruits!
This form, based on Kamen Rider Gaim’s trademark Orange Arms & exclusive to the Drive X Gaim Full Throttle movie, takes the asymmetry of Drive’s base Type Speed and mixes it up with some very interesting samurai armor. The Type Fruits Tire included creates some new hip & shoulder armor & a kasa style hat completes the samurai look. But as a a true Gaim homage it isn’t complete without a Daidaimaru & Musou Saber for Drive to wield!
As far as movie exclusive forms go, this one is definitely one of the more interesting. And once again, our favorite youtube reviewer Baltmatrix has also contributed a video review of Drive Type Fruits. Check out the full video below!
After the jump we’ve assembled over 70 images of this fruitastic figure! So be sure to check them out and read on for a full review and breakdown of this figures features! Baltmatrix and I wil return soon with another one-teo punch of Drive action with the DX Ride Crosser & TK-07 Kamen Rider Mach!
