Some of the first-ever Kamen Rider figures to be made available via Premium Bandai USA are still available to order.  Of course, we’re talking about the model SO-DO figure kits!  These incredibly easy-t0-assemble figures feature a range of articulation and many of them have never seen releases as S.H. Figuarts – so they’re the first official toys of your favorite forms of your favorite Kamen Rider characters!

There are two sets currently available at Premium Bandai USA.

  •  Kamen Rider Gaim – Kurokage & Knuckle Set

  • Kamen Rider Gaim – Bravo & Gridon Set
    • This set comes with Kamen Rider Bravo, Kamen Rider Gridon, Kamen Rider Ryugen Kiwi Arms, and Kamen Rider Baron Mango Arms.  This is the first official toy release of Kamen Rider Ryugen Kiwi Arms (excluding the ability to create the figure via the Arms Change toys).

This movie takes place during the Kamen Rider Gaim television series but happens in a parallel dimension.  Fans of the show will see familiar faces not seen in quite some time.  Newcomers will get to experience the entirety of the lineup of Kamen Rider Gaim characters in a single movie including movie-only Riders and forms however it will a lot of the story elements if you haven’t watched the series (ie: the surprise of certain characters becoming Kamen Riders or the identity of certain forms).

The end of Kamen Rider Gaim is fast approaching – and at TokuNation.com we’ve chosen to celebrate this very popular series with a send off spanning nine total days looking at every single Rider from the show and movie! Stay tuned because at any time we can announce a contest on our twitter account (@TokuNation)!

It is now day two of our celebration and we thought it would be fun to celebrate a group of Riders that, because of their Lock Seeds, have been dubbed in some circles as the Nut Bros.. They would be Kamen Rider Kurokage, Kamen Rider Gridon, and of course, Kamen Rider Knuckle. And while the “bros” part is more appropriately given to Kurokage and Gridon for their relationship at the start of the series, it also felt worthy to include Knuckle in the group as well.

Please click “Read More” to see our entire article on these three popular Riders! But of course be warned – there are major SPOILERS in doing so, as we look at their history throughout the show and in toy form. So join us as we look at our Nut Bros. – Kamen Rider Kurokage, Kamen Rider Gridon, and Kamen Rider Knuckle!

This weekend one of the most popular toku series of all time will come to an end – Kamen Rider Gaim is coming to an end with the airing of its final episode, “Transform! And to the Future!”, the 47th and final installment of this beloved series. It’s popularity has spawned one of the most successful merchandise toy lines (in both the Arms Change figures as well as the DX Lock Seeds and Sengoku & Genesis Drivers) in Kamen Rider history, and helped gain a slew of fans to the franchise that are either new or had stopped watching Kamen Rider thanks to the love it/hate it series of Kamen Rider W and Kamen Rider Fourze.

Kamen Rider Gaim has been an incredibly popular series here at TokuNation.com, as our discussion threads of each episode have grown larger and larger each week as fans have registered to share their thoughts on each episode. And this weekend they will do it one last time (until the summer movie is released!). While our wallets cry as we continue to buy up all the Kamen Rider Gaim merchandise (who has got their S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Kachidoki Arms yet?!?) we figured it was only fitting to give this series a proper send off here with Nine Days of Juicy, the Kamen Rider Gaim Celebration!

Over the course of the next nine days, starting on Thursday, September 25th, we will be posting an in-depth retrospective of all the Beat Riders, Armored Riders, and Energy Riders. Our celebration will end on Friday, October 3rd, right before the premiere of Kamen Rider Drive, the next installment of the Kamen Rider franchise. But what good is a celebration if the party has no party favors?

As we get close to the end of the celebration, followers of the TokuNation twitter account (@TokuNation on Twitter) will have a chance to win two S.H. Figuarts of characters from Kamen Rider Gaim! If you haven’t followed us on Twitter then you’d better hurry – our give away requires you to be a follower of our twitter account and to also re-tweet the give away tweet! Watch for it!

We hope you’ve enjoyed Kamen Rider Gaim as much as we have. So let’s give it one heck of a send-off by celebrating everything about the show – the good, the bad, and the simply confusing stuff! HENSHIN!!!!!

Magazine scan time has come around once again for Kamen Riders this month! And it looks like this months’ main focus is the Kamen Rider Gaim movie, The Great Soccer Match! The Golden Fruit Cup! 

This newest set of scans from the film reveals some in action shots of new comer fighters Kamen Rider’s Mars & Kamuro. Also shown is Gaim’s Dark Jinba Arms in action, a selection of some of the new Arms Changes Gaim will be trying out in the film, and a team-up or two you may not ever have expected to see.

Overshadowing this though is one bombshell scan from from an upcoming episode of  Kamen Rider Gaim. MAJOR SPOILERS below so read on at your own risk:

Spoiler:
These scans show us the return of Takatora with his original Sengoku Driver, utilizing the Original Kamen Rider Zangetsu suit! He goes toe to toe in these scans with his brother Micchy still posing as Shin Zangetsu. Upcoming episode rumors say the outcome of this battle will see the elder Kureshima brother on top.

We’ll see how the battle plays out in a few short weeks! Until then click “Discuss on the TokuNation forums” to head to our Gaim Rumors/Speculations thread to discuss these spoiler heavy implications!

Strike in the shadows!

Yet another rider from Kamen Rider Gaim is slated for release in the S.H. Figuarts line this year. This time it’s Kamen/Armored Rider Kurokage!

This release of the figure appears to be of the standard Kurokage rather the the mass produced Kurokage Trooper variant. Notice the still “prototype yellow” Sengoku Driver belt he’s wearing, and the faceplate on his belt. Chances are the Trooper version will eventually see release as well though. But for now I think we can all settle for the original Kurokage, Hase! S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Kurokage will be released as a Tamashii Web Exclusive in October for 4104 yen.

For one reason or another the Web Shop has only posted 2 official images to Kurokages’ page, 2 of which are rather boring static poses. We’ve included 3 other images that were previously leaked showing Kurokage with his partner in crime and fellow nut bro, S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Gridon!
