Brake, Up.

And you thought Kamen Rider Drive Type Speed Gallery was cool? Now it’s time for something a little more wicked! The grim reaper himself, the Roidmude hitman, the fallen hero, S.H. Figuarts Mashin Chaser! And as a 2-for-1 this gallery also includes the Midnight Shadow Tire 1st Run Bonus!

S.H. Figuarts Mashin Chaser, once the heroic rider Proto-Drive, is presented here in absolutely glorious chaotic detail. Chaser includes 3 sets of additional heads as well as his trademark Brake Gunner, which can accept Shift Cars! Sadly Chaser isn’t compatible with Drive’s Tires as he is now. But I’ve worked out a temporary fix for that with some spare stage parts, which you can view in this gallery!

The Midnight Shadow 1st Run Bonuses included give you the Tire, Mr Belt Readout, and flipped shift car needed to replicate Drive’s Midnight Shadow combo as well!

We’ve attached a selection of images to this post but the full 80 images as well as a comprehensive review are posted in the gallery thread attached. Click “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post to see it in it’s entirety! We’ll back next week with the S.H. FIguarts Rider Chaser & Effect Part Bonus gallery!

After a bit of speculation on this mysterious form and the silhouette we’d seen of it previously, we finally have our first full look at Kamen Rider Drive Type Super Dead Heat!

This type, exclusive to the film Kamen Rider Drive Surprise Future, will be a new form Drive can access using the Tridoron Key. When used with a Mach Driver this key gives Drive a form similar in nature to Mashin Chaser. In fact it’s the exact same suit as Mashin Chaser, just red instead of purple with a newly modified Drive helmet. This is the form Drive will use as he attempts to stop the antagonistic rider of the future, Dark Drive!

Kamen Rider Drive Surprise Future opens August 8th!

MAJOR SPOILERS  lurk below!

The identity of Kamen Rider Dark Drive, the apparent antagonist of the upcoming film Kamen Rider Drive Surprise Future, has been revealed! Dark Drive is none other than :

Spoiler:
Eiji Tomari, the son of Shinosuke Tomari from the year 2035! He’s traveled back in time to stop his father from unknowingly creating the dystopian future he comes from! Something is hidden deep within the Drive System that even Mr. Belt isn’t aware of and Dark Drive & NEXTridoron must stop it to save the future!

Kamen Rider Dark Drive is played by Mackenyu Maeda, an american born actor, and the son of Sonny Chiba.

With an impending release this month Bandai has just released official images for a pair of upcoming Kamen Rider Drive Releases!

The DX Tridoron Shift Car allows Drive to access his final form, Type Tridoron! This massively powerful form can be controlled by Shinnosuke or by Mr Belt, marked by the visor turning red when he does. The DX toy of this shift car of course features it’s own electronic light and sound gimmick as well as compatibility with the DX Drive Driver! And while the Kamen Rider Drive Type Tridoron vinyl may not be that detailed, it does give us one of the finest looks we’ve had at this suit before it’s official debut.

Both of these items will be released this month, for 2700 yen & 864 yen respectively!

Previously spotted on set  while filming has been underway for the Kamen Rider Drive Surprise Future movie, we finally have a full reveal of the rider who commands the NEX Tridoron!

Kamen Rider Dark Drive Type Next is as the name implies an evil rider from the future, the year 2035! Dark Drive uses his powers to help Roidmudes attack humans and has the Shift Next Builder, Next Hunter, and Next Decotraveler Cars at his disposal!

Dark Drive’s personal Shift Car Next/Special allows for two separate forms to be used. Will Dark Drive be redeemed and use Type Special to save the past and the future? Or will the present Drive be able to harness it’s power? Find out this summer!

A new round of magazine scans has been posted online, giving us our first official look at Kamen Rider Drive’s final form- Type Tridoron!

Type Tridoron is unlocked using the Shift Tridoron Shift Car and allows Drive to fuse multiple Shift Cars with a new ability called Tire Kakimazeru or Mix-Up.

In addition the scans show a new form for the villainous Roimudes– a modified golden frame known as Cho Shinkatai (meaning Super-Evolved Body).

Things are taking a strange turn during Kamen Rider Drive’s final laps! Stay tuned to TokuNation as we keep you up to date on all Drive details!

Tokunation is in Top Gear today! We’re proud to finally be able to share a full gallery and review of S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Drive Type Speed! As well as the included 1st Run Bonus Max Flare Set!

Kamen Rider Drive Type Speed is our titular heroes basic form, but the figure itself is far from that. While it may appear to have a lite accessory count, only 2 pairs of hands, this figure more than makes up for that with it’s versatility and interchangeability. Not only can the tires be removed to replicate the Tire Koukan gimmick, but so can the read outs on the Drive Driver, the flipped Shift Cars in the brace, and even the Shift Cars on Drive’s holster! The level of thought and engineering that’s gone into this figure is astounding, and the included 1st run Max Flare bonuses more than makes up for any lack of accessories. This figure is hands down worth your purchase.

We have a full gallery, totally over 100 images, after the jump as well as an in depth review detailing the wonderful aspects of S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Drive Type Speed. Just click “discuss on the TokuNation forums” at the bottom of this post to be taken to the complete thread. If you don’t get the point from our review then let me state it simply here, all you need is Drive.

As more details emerge about Kamen Rider Drive’s final form we inch closer to a full reveal. And today we have our clearest look yet at Kamen Rider Drive Type Tridoron! This is the first time we’ve seen the actual design of the helmet, and I must say it looks very very good. Taking on the characteristics of the Tridoron itself, this form brings Drive’s upgrades and color schemes full circle.

This images is a also bit of a double whammy for news though. Not only does it give us a clear look at Type Tridoron but we also have our first look at the upcoming Shift Next Special Shift Car! A 2-in-1 car, the yellow side allows for Drive Type Special while the black side gives access to Drive Type Next. Type Next would seem to be the form we’ve seen behind the scenes shots of. Both forms are set to appear in this summers’ Kamen Rider Drive Surprise Future movie.

Lastly this scan also confirms an unexpected upgrade, using a device called the Tridoron Key it appears that Kamen Rider Mach will be able to access Super/Chou Dead Heat! This silhouette bears a strong resemblance to Mashin Chaser so time will tell if it’s actually for Mach, or possibly for Kamen Rider Chaser.
