Filming is currently under way for the next Kamen Rider Drive special episode Secret Mission 3. Similarly to Hyper Battle Videos of the past this special episode will feature a new form for Drive, Type High Speed! Though blurry these images give us our first look at the suit.

Type High Speed is a primarily silver repaint of Type Speed with the red Type High Speed Tire attached. Though we initially thought this was just a new form for Drive, one of these images shows Type High Speed engaged in battle against defualt Drive Type Speed! And another shows High Speed fighting Kamen Rider Mach. We also get our first glimpse of the Mega Max Flare Tire & Shift car as well.

We’ll keep you updated as we learn more about this upcoming special.

Drive! Type Technic!

TokuNation has filled up with some high octane Kamen Rider Drive action for your viewing pleasure! Today we’re taking a looking at the 5th entry in the Tire Koukan toy line, the master of machines himself, TK-05 Kamen Rider Drive Type Technic!

Type Technic is a unique form. Rather than offering raw power to Drive it gives him highly technical skills like machine manipulation, increased dexterity, and near perfect accuracy. What the Tire Koukan figure of Technic gives us is another incredible addition to this growing line. Included with Technic are the standard Type Technic Tire you need to complete his basic look, the Fire Braver Tire, and Drive’s Door Gun! As far as complete packages go, Type Technic is yet another one in this line. This figure differs just a bit from previous Tire Koukan releases and we welcome you to read our review to find out how.

Or why not take a few minutes to check out a video review of TK-05 by my frequent collaborator Baltmatrix!

Check out the above video as well as 65 images of this great figure after the jump by clicking “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post. And don’t forget to leave a comment in that thread as well, it’ll enter you into our massive Toku Toy Box Giveaway! Specifically this gallery thread enters you in for a chance to win our Top Gear Rider Legends Prize Pack! If you need a refresher on the rules and prize packs then check them out here, and good luck!

Type…. A mysterious new hero joins the Tire Koukan toy line from Kamen Rider Drive! The first of likely many Premium Bandai TK releases is now up for order, TKPB01 Kamen Rider Proto-Drive!

Proto-Drive is the rider still surrounded by mysteries in Drive. But many of them should be brought to light soon in the upcoming Kamen Rider Drive Episode 0 which will be given away to movie goers at the Drive X Gaim Full Throttle Movie. 

For now though Premium Bandai is wetting our appetite for this shadowy rider with a Tire Koukan release. Proto-Drive includes the Prototype Tire already attached, but as a bonus for this premium release he also exclusively includes the Dimension Cab Tire! Which has a magnet that allows to be attached to metal surfaces. No other weapons or accessory are included but we’ve yet to properly see Proto-Drive use weapons before anyway.

TKPB01 Proto-Drive is open for pre-order for 3780 yen, and will remain open through February with an actual release in May.

Tire Koukan!

Ready to start your engine? TokuNation has that covered for you! We’re back with another look at Kamen Rider Drive! And this time we’re spotlighting the Tire Koukan TK-04 Tire Set 2 with a gallery!

Tire Set 2, much like Tire Set 1, is an accessory set of sorts for your other Tire Koukan figures. And just like the first set, this one includes three brand new tires! Spin Mixer being the most plain of the 3 doesn’t come with any accessories, nor should it. Much like Funky Spike it’s just a generic extra tire for the gimmick. However Mad Doctor includes the Cure Quicker defibrillator  device and looks pretty sharp on Drive Type Speed or Wild. But the real winner of this set is the 3rd and most awesome tire, Dream Vegas! Get ready to recreate scenes of an abnormally stretched out Kamen Rider with this one or recreate some classic fights with the included Drum Shields!

In any case we’ve attached a selection of images to this news post, but we’ve also assembled a full 40 image gallery after the jump for your viewing pleasure. But also don’t forget that this gallery qualifies you for our Toku Toy Box giveaway! Simply leave a comment in the discussion thread attached to this post and your name will be entered into the drawing for the Top Gear Rider Legends Prize Pack! Full official rules & details of Toku Toy Box posted here. Good luck!

Hot on the heels of a new Tire Koukan reveal earlier this week in the form of TK-09 Drive Type Formula, we have new images revealing the roleplay toys to go along with that form!

The DX Trailer Cannon is first the thing up. A weapon standard to Drive Type Formula, the Trailer cannon is very clearly based on a tractor trailer which would transport cars. It appears that Shift Cars can be inserted into the cannon by way of a port on top, though there’s no way to confirm if the cannon does or does not shoot the cars as projectiles yet. The Trailer Cannon also includes the Type Formula Shift Car Drive needs to access his new form.

And what would a Trailer styled weapon be without a racing pit crew of Shift Cars? Three additional Shift Cars for Drive Type Formula to use have also been revealed! Shift Mantann F01, based on a gas refueling tank, Shift Jack F02 based on a car jack, and Shift Spanner F03  based on a spanner/wrench.

It certainly looks like Kamen Rider Drive will be turning his racing theme up to 11 as the series progress with Forumla and the yet to be seen Dead Heat as well. We’ll keep you informed of all the new gears this series shifts into as they happen!

You know those things that are all popular here in the United States? We’re talking Skylanders, Disney Infinity and Amiibo, or whatever? Well, Bandai Namco released something very similar in Japan for their popular Kamen Rider series – a game for the PlayStation 3 titled Kamen Rider Summonride, where you can switch between various Kamen Rider characters as you battle hordes and legions of bad guys.

Our good buddy and incredibly famous YouTube Toku Reviewer ZeronXepher will be hosting a live stream via Twitch.TV this week as he plays through the game for he has purchased it. Don’t miss out on what promises to be a fun play through!

  • WHEN:  Tuesday, December 9th at 6pm EST
    and Friday, December 12th at 8pm EST
  • WHERE:  Twitch.TV/ZeronXepher
  • HOW:  By the power of Ferbus

Type Formula! It appears that the next upgrade for Kamen Rider Drive has been revelead! Well sort of.

Today brings us not only more Ninninger images but also a pair of silhouettes for Drive. One gives us a decent look at the profile for Kamen Rider Drive Type Formula. The other is an advertisement for the upcoming Tire Koukan TK-09 figure of this form. Type Formula appears to keep in line with the basic Drive style but it appears to move the TK gimmick once again, but this time to the figures wrists! A rather large spoiler has also been added to Drive’s shoulder/neck area! The accessory included is this forms new weapon, the Trailer Cannon!

TK-09 Drive Type Formula will be 3500 yen.
