“Tune Rhino. Super Break Up!”

Kamen Rider Drive has been enjoying quite the second life in the form of various movie appearances & special V-Cinema releases. And luckily so have his allies. Chase had his own in the form of the Kamen Rider Drive Saga: Kamen Rider Chaser film. This direct to video film also featured a brand new form for Chaser, an upgrade of his Roidmude reaper form, which we’re focusing on for today’s gallery. S.H. Figuarts Super Mashin Chaser!

Super Mashin Chaser is actually the 3rd outing so far of the Chaser mold. Following up from Mashin Chaser & Super Dead Heat Drive. But that hasn’t diminished how impressive it is each time eather. This mold still rocks some gorgeous asymmetry, only this time in impressive gold! There’s not much new to say about how the figure is designed, but it does have a striking color scheme. And while it’s lite on accessories outside the new Break Gunner Super Viral Core Loaded Version, it’s still compatible with the previously released Tune/Busou Chaser accessory set! So there’s plenty of play value in this gorgeous figure.

We’ve assembled a full 80 images of this figure for your viewing pleasure. Just click “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” to see the full gallery & review. We’ll see you soon with a couple of new throwback galleries from Kamen Rider’s W & Kabuto!

Signal Bike! Rider! Chaser!

Everyone’s favorite hero turned villain turned hero again has finally joined the S.H. Figuarts line! It’s been a long time coming but the rider with the tightest pants, the sweetest ride, and the ax that looks both ways before crossing the road has arrived! Today we take a look at S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Chaser!

Chaser is final rider needed to complete the basic Drive trifecta. As one of the last few remaining scheduled releases for Drive, he’s absolutely one of the best. Chaser is a sleek back to basics design that goes for a more symmetrical look any of the Drive riders. Included with him is his packaged separately headcrest, 2 sets of hands, his Signal Ax, and an effect part for it to replicate the “stop” & “go” of his Full Throttle Across Breaker attack. After handling him for this gallery it’s safe to say that Chaser is an absolutely solid release that will look fantastic in your Drive display. It’s one of the best figures released in this sub-line.

We’ve attached a selection to this post but more than 65 images are present in the full gallery. Just click “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post to see them as well as a full review. And catch up on all of our previous Kamen Rider Drive S.H. Figuarts galleries below:

Tune, Chaser!

Another day means another chance for all our users in Toku Toy Box! It’s been a long time coming but Bandai has finally delivered the goods for Mashin Chaser with the release of the new S.H. Figuarts Busou Chaser set!

The Busou Chaser set as the name implies is a vast accessory set meant for use with your S.H. Figuarts Mashin Chaser. A set which gives Chaser access to his E-Circular weapon pack as well as it’s alternate weapon modes like the Fang Spidey, Tail Whipper, & Wing Sniper! But perhaps the most striking accessory in this set is the MASSIVE pair of Wing Sniper Wings. An incredible piece these wings make Mashin Chaser look absolutely devilish and complete his look in the best way. As far as accessory sets go this one is top notch! But please do check out our full review and complete gallery after the jump.

We’ve assembled over 60 images of the S.H. of the Figuarts Busou Chaser Accessory set after the jump, to see them all click “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post. And don’t forget this is gallery qualifies you for entry in our Toku Toy Box Giveaway! That means all you have to do is post something relevant to the conversation and you’re entered for a chance to win!

“While the rest of the world was frozen, there was one person fighting to save us.”

Before the Roidmudes came in full force & Shinnosuke Tomari took up the mantle of Kamen Rider his predecessor roamed the streets saving the world in secret. Today we take a look at a long awaited release, a recent Tamashii Nations 2015 exclusive, S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Proto-Drive!

A remold/repaint of the Drive Type Speed Figuart, Proto-Drive represents the initial form taken by Chase before his transformation into the Roidmude reaper Mashin Chaser. A simply gorgeous figure Proto-Drive comes in the same basic box as Type Speed & also brings with it a rather lackluster accessory count. But the figure more than makes up for it with pure style. While Proto-Drive may not have all the bells & whistles of a standard release it looks stunning and will more than compliment any Kamen Rider Drive collection. Plus he just looks right at home on the Ride Chaser!

We’ve assembled over 40 images of S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Proto-Drive after the jump. Click “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post to see the full gallery and review!

This has been one great show this year! However the absence of Super Sentai figuarts & the smaller presence of Metal Heroes & other offbeat toku heroes is noticeable. So we’d like to know what are your thoughts on the showing from Bandai and Tamashii Nations this year?

On top of the actual revelation that this project was even happening, Amazon.JP has already thrown up pre-orders for the Kamen Rider Chaser V-Cinema project & the official Drive-Saga website is open! Much like the series of Gaim Gaiden videos released since that shows end, Drive Saga will seek to elaborate on the stories within and beyond the Kamen Rider Drive TV Series & Movies.

Aside from just revealing the poster image however Amazon Japan has revealed a Deluxe Blu-Ray Edition Set of this film that will include bonuses not unlike those with Gaim Gaiden. The Kamen Rider Chaser Deluxe Blu-Ray set will include a new DX Break Gunner (Drive Saga Version) and an as of yet un-revealed new Shift Car! No word yet on what changes have been made to the Break Gunner but it’s more than likely sound/electronics related. As for the Shift Car it’s very clearly a reuse of the Lupin mold. The deluxe set will retail for 11,880 yen.
