BEST MATCH!
Toei surprised fans of Kamen Rider Build a brand new V-Cinema special coming out later in the year: Kamen Rider Build New World: Kamen Rider Grease. And in case you missed it, a snazzy new form for Kamen Rider Grease was recently revealed: Kamen Rider Grease Perfect.
We finally have our first teaser of this V-Cinema courtesy of Genm Corp complete with subtitles! While we don’t have a Youtube link at the moment, you can view the teaser by making the jump here.
Once again the world of Kamen Rider Build offers us a surprise!
Fan-favorite supporting hero Kamen Rider Grease will be starring in a New World V-Cinema set after the events of the series, and with a new adventure comes new Rider powers! Thanks to the Grease Perfect Kingdom adapter- used with the Robot FullBottle in the BuildDriver rather than Greases’ traditional SclashDriver– the powers of Kamen Rider Grease Perfect are activated!
This new form is said to contain the powers of Grease’s subordinates, the Hokuto Three Crows. Perfects’ exact combat abilities remain unknown at time of writing.
Kamen Rider Grease: New World is currently scheduled for release in Autumn 2019! Stay tuned to TokuNation for further details on this exciting project!
A brief teaser video has been released for the recently-announced New World spinoff film starring fan-favorite Kamen Rider Grease!
At the moment, very few details about this new V-Cinema have been revealed. Actor Kohei Takeda will reprise his role as Kamen Rider Grease, while series writer Shogo Muto will be in charge of the script. Tokusatsu veteran Shojiro Nakazawa will direct the feature.
We do know that Kamen Rider Grease will be receiving a unique upgrade in this V-Cinema- thanks to a new device called the DX Grease Perfect Kingdom! This item combines Greases’ own Robot FullBottle with the powers of his fellow soldiers- the Hokuto Three Crows.
Grease New World is currently scheduled for release on November 11 2019! Stay tuned to TokuNation for any new details on this exciting project!
Twitter user @shin753315 has just shared a discovery that is sure to excite many fans of Kamen Rider Build. Like the recent Cross-Z New World, we’re about to get another V-Cinema taking place on this fresh Earth, with Kamen Rider Grease New World!
In the video attached to shin’s tweet, we can see that there’s a deluxe DVD/Blu Ray pack slated for release the same month as the standard edition, both due in November 2019. The deluxe set is retailing for 10,000 yen and will be sold through Premium Bandai. The deluxe pack will also include a new DX Full Bottle for Grease.
More details are scarce at the moment but as further information becomes available we’ll update this story.
As Kamen Rider Zi-O marches on through time and space, more Legends of the Kamen Rider franchise are joining the series’ toyline! Bandai B-Boys has just updated their site this week with official images and release information for two more of these Legends joining the Rider Kicks Figures Legends line:
RKF Legend Rider Kamen Rider Grease Blizzard
– Mid February release date
– 2,500 yen retail
RKF Legend Rider Kamen Rider Cross-Z Magma
– Mid February release date
– 2,500 yen retail
Both figures, as with all RKF’s, look to be great budget alternatives to their pricier Tamashii Web Exclusive collector counterparts. And luckily, so far, this line is all retail as well. Will you be adding these RKF’s to your collection? Let us know in the thread below!
Toei has released a new full-length trailer for the upcoming V-Cinema project BUILD NEW WORLD: Kamen Rider Cross-Z!
With the battle for Pandora’s Box concluded, Kamen Rider Cross-Z has returned to his normal life. But when a sinister new foe named KillBus appears, the Kamen Rider War must start again.
To overcome this all-powerful opponent, Cross-Z must make a deal with a devil- to gain the Muscle Galaxy FullBottle and become Kamen Rider Cross-Z EVOL!
Build New World will receive a limited theatrical release on January 25 2019 followed by a proper DVD/Blu-Ray release on April 24, 2019!
The next entry in the SH Figuarts ZERO sub-line has been revealed: a three-pack containing the Hokuto Three Crows of Kamen Rider Build!
For those somewhat unfamiliar with the series, the Three Crows are three enhanced soldiers with unique FullBottles that can transform into monstrous forms- they are the Castle, Stag and Owl HardSmash respectively- under the command of Kamen Rider Grease.
These 3 Crows have been brought to life as Figuarts ZEROs; non-articulate but still expertly designed figures! In addition, the Crows come with a new accessory for SH Figuarts Kamen Rider Grease- a switchable hand holding the Crows’ military tags.
The Hokuto Trio will receive a singular release- all three figures will be coming out June 2019! The price is a very modest 12960 Yen before shipping and handling.
“Best Match!”
Tamashii Nations day 2 has gotten off to a pretty wild start for Kamen Rider Build fans! A number of new reveals that were under photo bans have finally been revealed:
S.H. Figuarts:
Kamen Rider Evol Cobra Form
The Hokuto Three Crows (Aoba, Kiba, Akiba)
Kamen Rider Grease (With Crows Dog Tags)
Kamen Rider Build Rabbit/Rabbit Form
Kamen Rider Build Tank/Tank Form
Kamen Rider Build Rabbit/Dragon Form
Rabbit/Dragon, the final form debuting in the final episode of the series, has yet to be seen in a properly clear photo, as it’s still under the photo ban. The Hokuto Three are listed as S.H. Figuarts on their placard, however they do appear to be non-articulated Figuarts Zero’s based on the prototypes shown. They’re definitely quite an interesting release if they make it out to retail eventually. As is we have no confirmed release info for any of these figures.
As more information and images become available we’ll be sure to update you in the ongoing Tamashii Nations 2018 discussion thread. Just click “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” below to catch up on the discussion. Images for this story come from AmiamiNews, and Tokullector.
“Robot in Grease!”
Kazumi Sawatari, was a humble farmer once, but the war to save or conquer Japan would pit him against heroic Kamen Riders, evil industrialists, scheming politicians, and even extraterrestrial monsters. Driver in hand, Kazumi sacrificed everything to be a hero and stand up for those he lost, and those he loved. S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Grease recreates the character we know and love, and today we have a full gallery and review of it!
Kamen Rider Grease manages to be yet another really wonderful addition to the Build line-up. It may have a lot to do with just how memorable all of the characters from the series are, but each of their figures feel like such a refresher. Each with it’s own unique charm to it. Grease’s gorgeous gold color scheme and translucent black parts combined with the Sclash Driver & Twin Breaker add up to a pretty much perfect release.
The full gallery is attached to this post, but if you’d like to read the full length review as well, just click “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post. We’ll be back soon with more Build and several Ex-Aid galleries!
