“This’ll be Kurenai’s debut battle.”

It is the Summer of Training. And while mentoring Todoroki’s inconsistent practice of the Taiko drum, and even bestowing the Ongekibou to both Todoroki & Ibuki, Kamen Rider Hibiki furiously trains himself. Faster, stronger, hotter. Burning brighter than he ever has before, Hibiki must master the rhythm of his core and burn like fire! Without it, the deadly Dorotabou will continue to multiply, wreaking havoc on the local villages. With an inferno of strength raging in his heart, Hibiki explodes into a new form, Kamen Rider Hibiki Kurenai!

Hibiki Kurenai is the first new figure that Kamen Rier Hibiki himself has received in the 6 years since his original S.H. Figuarts Shinkocchou Seihou release. And explosive is the best descriptor for. A gorgeous redeco of the base Hibiki mold, this fiery repaint brings all the articulation hallmarks of this line with it. But more than that it comes armed with a vast array of accessories and weapons like the Disc Animals, Onkaku, Ongekibou and the Onizume! As the 5th release in the Hibiki Seihou line, what can we expect next of the Oni Riders?

Missed out on some Shinkocchou Seihou Figuarts that have skyrocketed in value in recent times? Lucky for collectors, Bandai has some wonderful alternatives for you. Joining the ever popular Figure-Rise Standard line of Model Kits are Kamen Riders Hibiki & Decade!

Leaks of these two made their way out just a few weeks ago, but now they’ve been officially revealed and they look absolutely stunning. Striking the perfect balance of collector quality and scratching that Gunpla building itch at the same time, these Figure-Rise kits would make excellent additions to any collection in lieu of or in tandem with your Figuarts.

Figure-Rise Hibiki is headed your way in October 2020 for 3740 yen while Decade will join him shortly after in December, for 3520 yen. Watch out for pre-orders at all major online import retailers. You can join the ongoing discussion of the ever growing and changing Figure-Rise line in our regular discussion thread, linked below.

After a brief teaser of this release earlier in the week, Tamashii Nations has fully revealed and confirmed release details for S.H. Figuarts Shinkocchou Seihou Kamen Rider Hibiki Kurenai!

It’s been a few months since a new figure from Kamen Rider Hibiki has been announced or released, the last couple being Zanki and Todoroki. So it’s refreshing to see this long overdue form finally make it’s debut in the Seihou line. Since Hibiki’s release in the line 6 years ago, it’s been hoped by fans that the difficult to procure mold would see re-release in this gorgeous form.

Now we can expect to see it finally Kamen Rider Hibiki Kurenai release this July for 7150 yen!

“WAKE UP!”

Shy, anxious, fearful, Wataru Kurenai would rather craft violins like his father Otoya. But as the son of the Fangire Queen as well, he was destined to become Kamen Rider Kiva, the Fangire King! And like the King’s before him Wataru has one trusted partner, a member of the Kivat family, Kivat Bat III. With Kivat in tow, Wataru sets out to fight Fangires and protect humanity, just as his father did (occasionally) 20 years prior. Now it’s time to break the chains on a review we’ve waited years for with S.H. Figuarts Shinkocchou Seihou Kamen Rider Kiva!

As the Heisei Era ends, Tamashii Nations has at long last delivered on the promise of completing the 20 Heisei Riders! With Kamen Rider Kiva, the entire lineup of main riders is complete, and let me say, it’s incredibly satisfying. Kiva brings to a close an era of incredible heroes and does so in gorgeous fashion. With the trademark accuracy and engineering of the Seihou line, Kiva looks as though he walked right off the set. Including his 6 Fuestles, the Hell’s Gate leg for his Rider Kick, a Ridewatch Tamashii Stage, and the ever present Kivat Bat III, Kiva is a tremendously welcome sight to any Kamen Rider collection.

You can check out our full 100 image gallery below by clicking “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums at the bottom of this post. It features not only the 20 Heisei Riders, but also as many Kiva cameos as I could make happen including TV riders Ixa, Rising Ixa, Emperor Kiva, & Dark Kiva, movie villains Kamen Riders Rey and Arc, & even Decade’s own Kiva-La! Please join in the discussion and let us know what you think of this release which finally closes out the Heisei Era. Next time, it’s Armor Time with a brand new gallery from Kamen Rider Zi-O!

The latest round of magazine scans has been posted online, offering fans a few details about the next adventures of Kamen Rider Zi-O!

In the near future, an alien meteorite crashes into Earth- containing a powerful new foe, Kamen Rider Ginga! This extraterrestrial Kamen Rider has set out to conquer the universe with his unfathomable powers- Ginga is even stronger than Zi-O’s Trinity Form!

To stop this new threat, Kamen Rider Woz must develop a MiRide Watch based on Ginga’s powers- transforming Woz into his most powerful form yet, Kamen Rider Woz Ginga!

But the alien threat is only one of the challenges facing Team Zi-O. A mysterious demon is at loose- the next Another Rider, AnotherHibiki! Sougo must learn how to fight such a creature with the help of the Oni Riders.

Definitely some exiting times ahead for Kamen Rider Zi-O! Stay tuned to TokuNation as we keep you up to date on all Kamen Rider reveals!

“I think I was destined to choose this path.”

Little did Sougo Tokiwa know, his childhood dreams of being a great king were prophetic in a way. Should they ever come to pass, they could create the desolate future ruled by Sougo’s own evil self, the overlord Oma Zi-O! In the present, Sougo journey’s down the path of the overlord, defeating Another Riders as Kamen Rider Zi-O! But with the Day of Oma approaching, will Zi-O become the evil overlord? Or will Kamen Rider Geiz, the Time Jackers, Kamen Rider Woz, or even Kamen Rider Decade, manage to contain his power? Time, will tell…

S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Zi-O kicks off this year’s new Figuarts sub-line as a pretty solid release. While assuredly many will take issue with this figure’s lack of accessories (which are included with the Ride Striker) this figure has a lot to offer and lots of personality. Zi-O is a well rounded, well articulated figure that fits in fantastically with mainline figuarts as well Shinkocchou Seihou releases. Though Seihou Kamen Rider Kiva still hasn’t been released, seeing Zi-O with his fellow lead riders is still quite the sight. And if you happen to have a DX Time Mazine as I do, you’ll find that Figuarts Zi-O works quite well with him. Zi-O also compliments Shinkocchou Seihou Kamen Rider Decade marvelously.

Today, Toei began streaming a new video promoting the upcoming Kamen Rider Heisei Generations Forever film (which comes out in two days!). But rather than just a new teaser or trailer for the film, this video previews the films theme song, which is itself a compilation and re-mix of the Opening Themes for all 20 Heisei Riders!

Titled “Heisei Generations Forever Medley D.A. Re-Build Mix” this song arranges clips from each of the 20 Heisei Rider OP’s into one giant song, set to a variety of archival footage as well as new scenes from the soon to be released film itself.  This new theme was arranged by Daisuke Asakura.

Kamen Rider Heisei Generations Forever hits Japanese theaters on December 22nd! Best to dodge spoilers on social media for a bit, but if you’d like to join in on our ongoing discussion of the film, feel free to pop into our discussion thread linked below.
