New details and scans the Kamen Rider Gaim summer movie have surfaced online!

At the time rumors suggest that this movie will take place in an alternate universe; meaning events will not be canon with the series & the movie will not change the overall plot arcs. The appearances of

Spoiler:
Yuuya and Hase
seem to verify this.

A new leader for the Kurokage Troopers is revealed, using a Genesis Driver with the Pinecone Energy Seed (E.L.S. 05).

Three other Rider forms are seen in shadow, suggesting new Movie Exclusive Gaim Riders! In addition we also get brief shadow glimpses of Gaim’s Ultimate form, “Kiwami Arms!” Could this movie show us how Kouta’s final upgrade really works!

The Gaim Summer Movie premieres in theaters late July! Stay tuned to TokuNation until then as we keep you up to date on all details!

We love us any and all Kamen Rider Gaim merchandise here at TokuNation.com. One of our favorite lines to collect has also been one of the hardest to grab at retail – the Arms Change series of figures and accessories from Bandai Japan. Our friend and site contributor baltmatrix FINALLY got his hands on a figure set he had been looking forward to for some time now – the Arms Change 09 Kurokage with Tulip Hopper set – and was kind enough to do a video review of the figure. What’s the worst part about this figure? Is the extra dough for the Tulip Hopper worth it? If you’re on the fence on whether or not you want to pay the secondary market price for this figure, check out baltmatrix‘s review below and then make your decision!

The images in this video are courtesy our very own Den-O. If you’re not a subscriber to baltmatrix and his video channel then you should probably fix that by becoming a subscriber! Simply click here and subscribe so you never miss a beat on any of his video reviews. For all you Transformers fans out there, we’re getting close to the release of the Age of Extinction toy line. Why throw $40 at a figure that used to cost you $25 without first checking baltmatrix‘s video reviews? We’ve linked this news story to the gallery that Den-O did of the Arms Change Kurokage figure – go ahead and comment on it and the video review!

Strike in the Shadows!

We’re back with a final Arms Change Gallery (for now). The most recent release in the line is none other than AC09 Kamen/Armored Rider Kurokage! Although this toy is meant to represent the original Kurokage, it could quite easily be troop built as the Kurokage Trooper. The inclusion of their signature lock vehicle, the Tulip Hopper helps get this point across.

Another welcome addition to the line, Kurokage officially rounds out the the first 6 Armored Riders before the introduction of Bravo. His Bandai Premium webshop release won’t be for a few months either. So the next AC gallery you’ll be seeing after this is Gaim Jinba Arms after it’s release! So far now, be sure to check out our FULL 50+ image gallery of AC 09 Armored Rider Kurokage & Tulip Hopper by clicking “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post.

Bandai has opened the official page for the second Lock Seed & faceplate roleplay set!

This offering contains two DX Lock Seeds- Pinecone and Walnut, used by Kamen Riders Kurokage & Knuckle respectively. The set also includes two faceplates; a detailed profile for Kurokage & a blank face for Knuckle (or to double as the mass-produced Kurokage Driver design).

DX Pinecone & Walnut will be released in September 2014 and cost a mere 4,320 yen

Youtube user “wotakufighter” has put up two new videos offering a close look at the latest release in the superb Arms Change action figure series: Armored Rider Kurokage and his unusually creative new vehicle, the TulipHopper!

UPDATED! Third video added!

The AC-09 set gets released this weekend in Japan so fans who were lucky enough to preorder the set should check their mailboxes for payment requests!

Bandai has announced a second special Kamen Rider Gaim set, featuring two DX Lock Seeds and corresponding faceplates for the Sengoku Driver.

This new set contains DX Matsubokkuri (“Pinecone”) and Kurimi (“Walnut”), the perfect set for fans of Armored Rider Kurokage and Armored Rider Knuckle! Even though Knuckle actually has NO faceplate since he uses the mass-production driver but that’s another story altogether.

In addition, Bandai has also revealed a special bonus for people who buy this set or the previously announced DX Durian/Acorn set: the “SID” Lock Seed! This golden decorative device was seen in the Lock Dealers’ possession relatively early in the series but its actual powers are still unknown.

The DX Pinecone and Walnut set will be released on June 30 and has a relatively affordable price tag of 4000 Yen
