Revealed over the weekend today brings us some new in depth scans of Kamen Rider Drive’s upcoming second form, Type Wild!

A primarily black form, Type Wild swaps the the Tire Koukan gimmick out to it’s right shoulder. 3 new Tires will also be introduced along with Wild; Wrecking Hooker, Mad Doctor, & Rumble Dump! These new scans give us a taste of what each new tire looks like and a better look at the slick black police deco that Type Wild sports.

A handful of additional movie scans from the Gaim X Drive Movie War Full Throttle are also included showing off Kamen Riders Lupin, and Proto-Drive.

Some new information has surfaced online & given us more insight about the enemies of Kamen Rider Drive X Kamen Rider Gaim Movie War FULL THROTTLE!

The first villain was seen earlier this week- Kamen Rider Lupin! He is described as a world-class thief out to steal the name Kamen Rider.

A second enemy creature was revealed through recent scans- an artificial lifeform known as Megahex. This monster is seen fighting off Gaim in Kiwami Arms. The accompanying text confirms this monster will attack the alien planet last seen in Kamen Rider Gaim & force Kouta to return to Earth. Megahex is also the source of our third and final “new” villain. Most surprising (and the largest spoiler to date; which we will keep hidden out of respect for other fans who wish to go in cold)

Spoiler:

Professor Ryoma Sengoku has returned! Armed with a repaired Driver and the new E.L.S. HEX Energy LockSeed, he transforms into Kamen Rider Duke- DragonFruit Arms!

Movie War FULL THROTTLE premieres in theaters December 13 2014! Stay tuned to TokuNation as we keep you up to date on all Movie news!

The latest round of magazine scans demonstrates Kamen Rider Drive’s second form- Type Wild!

Drive uses the Shift Wild Shift Car to unlock this upgraded suit. In addition, a new wave of Shift Cars will appear to fight with Type Wild- Hooking Wrecker, Rumble Dump and Mad Doctor!

But Drive’s not the only one receiving upgrades! The mysterious Machine Chaser will obtain new Core Powers based on fallen Roidmude. In particular, these scans demonstrate Chaser Bat, Chaser Cobra and Chaser Spider!

 

Definitely looks like some interesting adventures are coming down the road for Kamen Rider Drive!

Teased a mere 2 days ago by Tamashii Nations, we have our very first true prototype image of S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Drive Type Speed!

Kamen Rider Drive appears to have some excellent sculpted details and a good range of motion we’ve come to expect from most figuarts. Of course there’s no confirmation on if the Tire Koukan gimmick will be replicated in some fashion for the Drive SHF line. But we;ll find our more about this figure as information becomes available. In any case S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Drive Type Speed and many other recent reveals will all be on display at Tamashii Nations 2014 at the end of this month!

The second form of Kamen Rider Drive has been revealed!
Thanks to a vinyl collectors’ figurine leaking out before the intended release date, we have our first look at Drive: Type Wild! This new armor is apparently built for heavy-duty combat, with the Tire moving to Drive’s shoulder instead of the chest.

 

The secert origins of Type Wild remain unknown at the time of writing. Stay tuned to TokuNation as we keep you up to date on all Kamen Rider Drive news!

This is certainly a quick turn around! Despite the series itself only being in it’s 3rd week, it looks like S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Drive Type Speed is on the horizon!

Teased by the official Tamashii Features twitter account is our very first look at Drive. You may recall that last year Kamen Rider Gaim premiered on October 6th and just 2 weeks later the first gray prototype of S.H. Figuarts Gaim was revealed prior to Tamashii Nations. Kamen Rider Drive premiered October 5th and has had what appears to be a fully colored prototype revealed on October 19th in anticipation of the same event.

Tamashii Nations 2014 will being on October 31st so we can expect more in depth looks at this brand new figure then!

Kamen Rider Drive’s first episode has finally aired and the first waves of the toy line have made their way into sp,e collector’s hands. Specifically mine! so today we’re taking a look at the very first figure in Drive’s Tire Koukan gimmick line! TK-01 Kamen Rider Drive (Type Speed) is the first in what appears to be a pretty long line of new gimmick figures. Having already revealed up to 8 regular releases and at least one SP release, Tire Koukan should have the same kind of awesome staying power that Arms Change did.

Following up from last years fantastically well received Arms Change line, Tire Koukan has a similar gimmick, literally swapping various themed tires onto Drive and other compatible figures by splitting the figure diagonally in half! This unique gimmick carries itself well to toy form and much like AC’s this new line of TK figures does not disappoint. Drive includes his standard Speed Tire & the Max Flare Tire for additional play. Though this figure is lite on the accessories it’s got plenty of playability and will be right at home with the rest of your riders!

Click “discuss on the TokuNation forums” at the bottom of this post to check out our full review of this figure as well as over 70 images! I’ve been personally sold on Kamen Rider Drive the show, and now the toy line. So expect more Drive galleries in the near future! Start your engine!
