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.

“Flame, Please.”

Haruto Soma was the only survivor of a dark Solar Eclipse ritual which saw the creation of a legion of monsters known as Phantoms. Assuming the likeness and identities of those humans they emerged from, Phantom’s invade the world of humans and use magic to wreak havoc. Only one man can stop them, the one who faced despair head on in the light of the eclipse and emerged to gain the power of magic from his hope. Haruto Soma became Kamen Rider Wizard!

FINALLY, after languishing for 6 years with one of the worst S.H. Figuarts ever made, the Shinkocchou Seihou renewal line has finally tackled the rider of hope! Kamen Rider Wizard Flame Style is possibly one of the most stunning and astounding figuarts I’ve ever handled. A magnificent recreation of a dynamic suit design, this stylish figure is everything that Wizard fans have ever wanted. Interchangeable Wizard Rings, a multi-mode WizardSwordGun, and fully poseable Wizard Robes(!), make this one of the nicest Seihou releases to date. But don’t just take my word for it, see 100+ images in our full gallery thread!

The full gallery is linked below, just click “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” below to be taken to the complete review. Remember, this gallery qualifies you for entry in our annual Toku Toy Box giveaway as well! We’ll have another Toy Box gallery coming up this week to, as we revisit the Oni Riders of Kamen Rider Hibiki in over 4 years!

“Time Mazine!”

The massive mecha known as the Time Mazine is the last line of defense between the rebels of 2068 & the dark overlord Oma Zi-O. These mass produced defenders have even been known to be used by the Time Jackers… Sougo Tokiwa was given access to one thanks to Tsukuyomi travelling back in time from this bleak future. A means of travel to the eras of the legendary riders that preceded him, Sougo as the present day Kamen Rider Zi-O will gain the powers of the past to save (or dominate) the future!

DX Time Mazine is the big DX toy of the line this year. In years past it was preceded by things like Captain Ghost, Tridoron, Suika Arms, and Wizardragon. While we don’t get to see a lot of the big items each year because of CG costs, Time Mazine is used fairly often actually. The DX toy winds up being one of the best articulated mecha we’ve gotten in a while (take that Sentai!) and is completely interactive with the Ride Watches of the toyline. This figure is also scaled to work with the Rider Kicks RKF line and even transforms to vehicle mode!

We’ve attached the full gallery of DX Time Mazine to this article, but you can also read up on our full review of the figure by clicking “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post. Later this week, we’ll be back with the legendary warrior, S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Cronus!

A plethora of new magazine scans detailing the upcoming adventures of Kamen Rider Zi-O have been posted online! These scans give us some very detailed information about the next adventures of this time-traveling Rider.

*The next stop on Zi-O’s tour is to the year 2011 and the world of Kamen Rider Fourze! WIth Fourze’s RideWatch Zi-O will gain the power of COSMIC ENERGY to activate the Kamen Rider Fourze RideArmor!This new Armor utilizes Fourze’s legendary Rocket Punch ability & can also transform into a Rocket Mode for direct attacks.

*Zi-O is also shown obtaining the Kamen Rider OOO RideArmor! This new form based on OOO’s TaToBa combo channels all 3 animal abilities for combat.

*Not to be outdone, Kamen Rider Geiz will pick up a unique souvenir from the year 2003- the Kamen Rider Faiz RideWatch, activating Kamen Rider Faiz RideArmor! This configuration gives Geiz several of Faiz’ own weapons, including the Faiz Shot & Faiz Pointer.

*Perhaps the most powerful RideArmor yet comes from God Dan Kuroto– when Kamen Rider Geiz obtains the Kamen Rider Genm RideWatch to trigger Genm RideArmor!

*The last confirmed stop on the Riders’ tour at the moment is to year 2012 and the world of Kamen Rider Wizard! To obtain this Riders’ magic powers, the time-travelers must work with Kosuke Nito– better known as Kamen Rider Beast! Actor Tasuku Nagase will reprise his role as the mayonnaise-loving archeologist once again. Once the Wizard RideWatch is obtained, Kamen Rider Geiz will activate Kamen Rider Wizard RideArmor and be able to control magic itself!

Definitely some exciting times ahead AND several tributes to Kamen Rider history along the way! Stay tuned to TokuNation as we keep you up to date on all Kamen Rider reveals.

With Kamen Rider Zi-O heralding the end of the Heisei Era for Kamen Rider, and in commemoration of the 20th Heisei Rider himself, Tamashii Nations has announced the S.H. Figuarts Heisei Riders Rising Project!

The Rising Project announcement promises the reveal of 3 new Heisei Rider figuarts in the near future. The first of these 3 riders will be revealed on August 24th. Currently speculation is running wild as to what these 3 figures will actually be. Will this be Kiva’s time? There’s Zi-O which begins airing next month  as well, so now would be an ideal time to reveal his first figuart. Then there’s the possibility that 1 or more of these figures could be a Shinkocchou Seihou renewal of an out of date release like OOO, Fourze, or even Faiz.

Exactly who these 3 Heisei Riders are, is something we’ll be watching closely in the coming weeks. So we’ll be sure to keep the community up to date!

FLAME, PLEASE!

Only a few days ago we learned the next entry in the Shinkocchuou Seihou subseries of SH Figuarts would be Kamen Rider Wizard– and now we have a close look at this exciting new figure!

Kamen Rider Wizard Flame Style is recreated with exquisite detail, with features including an adjustable WizardDriver, a multi-form Wizard SwordGun and a wide assortment of Wizard Rings that can be switched out if needed.

Of particular note is Wizard’s cloak; the first type of clothing released in the Shinkocchou Seihou series. The figure uses a mixture of cloth fabric and wire frame to offer a wide array of adjustable shapes.

Shinkocchou Seihou Kamen Rider Wizard will officially open for order on July 2 2018! Release is currently scheduled for November 2018 and the price is a very modest 7884 Yen!

“Shabadoobie touch to henshin!”

It’s been years since the original Figuart for Wizard was released. However in recent months, Tamashii Nations has been displaying a prototype for a renewal of the figure. After a lot of speculation, and plenty of hope, we finally have confirmation on the release of S.H. Figuarts Shinkocchou Seihou Kamen Rider Wizard Flame Style!

Wizard’s original S.H. Figuarts toyline was plagued by horrendous QC and wonky proportions. Of most modern figuarts lines, Wizard was certainly one that needed the Seihou renewal treatment. Now confirmed for release, Shinkocchou Seihou Wizard will be out in November 2018, it will be a retail release, and will be 7884 yen.

The Shinkocchou Seihou series of S.H. Figuarts has the design process starting with the bone structure of the character and building up, providing more realization without limiting articulation. At the Tamashii Nations 2017 event currently happening in Japan, images have leaked of the Shinkocchou Seihou version of Kamen Rider Wizard!

Currently, two images are linked to this article courtesy of @YongouOYander on Twitter. Check out the new version of Kamen Rider Wizard by clicking the title of the story. No further details on this figure are available at this time – it is simply on display.

As is customary with Kamen Rider, the gimmick line of each series ends up having “legend Riders” power-ups. Kamen Rider Build is continuing that tradition with the DX Legend Rider Full Bottles which have been uncovered today by @_Erasu on Twitter.
