Remember way back when Tamashii Nations had that big old vote to determine which limited release S.H. Figuart Kamen Rider figure should get a re-release? Well the results are in and according to Figsoku after 50,000 total votes we have a winner!
S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Ohma Zi-O will be re-released. Orders will open via Tamashii Web Shop on February 12th, 2021. This will be your final chance at obtaining this figure. Maybe. Probably.
Initially revealed in early July at Tamashii Features 2020, S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Zi-O Ohma Form is confirmed for release! Thanks to the Tamashii Nations Blog, we’ve got some fantastic new official promo shot shots of this upcoming release as well as a date for when pre-orders open, August 7th!
Exclusive to the Kamen Rider Zi-O Over Quartzer film, Zi-O Ohma form looks to have been recreated very faithfully here in Figuarts form. We don’t have confirmation on specific price yet, but given how close we are to the pre-order window opening, we won’t have long to wait. Check back with us later this week for an update on price. And for now, enjoy those gorgeous official images!
Kamen Ride! Wow! Decade! Decade! Decaaaaaade!
With Tsukasa Kadoya’s arrival, the world is always in danger. The Destroyer of Worlds has witnessed or instigated the destruction of many, for better or worse. And allying himself with the Time Jackers raises many questions. But entrusting his power to Sougo, raises even more. Decade Ridewatch in hand, Zi-O will don the Decade Armor to face both Kamen Rider Decade, as well as Ohma Zi-O! Will the power of the 10th Heisei Rider be enough, or will Sougo have to take some of the power of Ohma for his own, just to survive?
Joining the Zi-O line up of S.H. Figuarts, Decade Armor gives us our 4th Sougo in the line. And although I’ve yet to handle Zi-O II, each is just unique enough from the last to give it a slightly different feel and personality. While much of this mold is engineered similarly to previous outings, this one is more or less all new. Armed with the Ride Heisaber, this powered up form may make a great addition to your Zi-O collection.

“You fools could never hope to defeat me. Do you know why?
Because I was born to be king!”
50 years from now, there are no Kamen Riders. The world is ruled by one all-powerful overlord of time & space, Ohma Zi-O! Taking as his own the power of the 20 Heisei Riders, Sougo Tokiwa became king. But in another time Kamen Rider Zi-O was a hero. And even though that young Sougo is still on the path to becoming Ohma, can he change fate? Destined to have the powers of the demon king, and with the fate of all worlds in the balance, will Sougo destroy time itself? Or will he choose to rebuild everything? The day of Ohma is here!
S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Ohma Zi-O is another gorgeous addition to the Zi-O subline. While primarily a retread of the Zi-O/Geiz mold, for this outing the body is decked out in opulent gold paint and lavish sculpted details. This is a stunning piece to add to your Zi-O collection, even if the accessory count is rather low. Ohma is armed with 3 sets of hands as well as the Ryuki, Kiva, & Kuuga Ridewatches. The overlord of your collection arrives in this gallery!
Clocking in at 75 images, you can view our full gallery of Ohma Zi-O after the jump. Just click “Discuss on the TokuNation” Forums at the bottom of this post to be taken to our full review thread. Next time we’ll be back to action so to speak, with another overlord from the future; Lord Drakkon!
Premium Bandai has revealed two new Ridewatch releases for the soon to be released Kamen Rider Zi-O: Over Quartzer film!
First up, a 3-pack for the villains exclusive to the film! These are Ridewatches for Kamen Riders Barlckxs, Zoshinj, & Zamonas. Each of these characters is of course based on the unique riders who qualify as Heisei Kamen Riders, but aren’t generally counted towards the era. Each of their watches interacts with the previously released DX Ziku Driver. This set details for 4950 yen and will be released as P Bandai exclusive in December.
And to round out the movie watches, a brand new watch for Kamen Rider Zi-O will also be released. The Zi-O Oma Form watch will be actually be releasing a month earlier than the above 3-pack, in November. Based on Oma Zi-O, this movie exclusive power-up will give Sougo all the strength and abilities of the future overlord Oma Zi-O! This watch will be released in November as a P Bandai exclusive for 2220 yen.
After much speculation, Bandai Japan has officially announced the SH Figuarts release for the sinister King Of Time, Oma Zi-O!
The Golden King will be released in September 2019! The price is a modest 6480 Yen before shipping and fees.
Definitely another worthy entry into this fan-favorite action figure series! Stay tuned to Tokunation for all SH Figuarts Kamen Rider reveals.
Teased for release as recently as January, S.H. Figuarts Oma Zi-O seems to finally be headed for release!
As a part of Tamashii Nations new Gold Crush sales and promotions, it seems an official announcement of Oma Zi-O is also planned. While the full set of images isn’t circulating yet, @Tokullector has shared a selection official images for Oma Zi-O. An impressive figure for sure, we know thanks to handling SHF Zi-O himself earlier last month, that this should be a solid release.
This means in the next 24 hours we should have confirmation of the release date and price as well. Check back here for that update!
“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.
We’ve attached the full 60+ image gallery to this post, but you can also check out the full review of Kamen Rider Zi-O by clicking “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post. Next time, things heat up, with our gallery of Shinkocchou Seihou Kamen Rider W Heat/Metal!
Toy Fair wasn’t the only place for exciting new toy reveals this weekend! When Kamen Rider Zi-O first started, a lot of fans have been clamoring for toys based on the Another Rider designs but now it looks like Bandai will be granting us that wish!
Zi-O Watcher was recently updated with a new Youtube video teaser for the line, and in that teaser, at about the eight-second mark prototypes for the Another Riders were shown.
The first four appear to be Another Build, Another Ex-Aid, Another Faiz, and Another Gaim. It’s unclear if these will be released in a box or mixed in future waves of SODO Zi-O.
In addition to the Another Riders, Zi-O Watcher released a plethora of new images featuring the Demon King of 2068 himself: Oma Zi-O! Oma Zi-O will be included in Ride7 of SODO Zi-O which will be hitting shelves in March.
After the initial reveal of this figure in early January, we haven’t been offered much in the way of further updates for S.H. Figuarts Oma Zi-O. However, thanks to a new post on the official S.H. Figuarts Blog we have two new looks at the upcoming figure. While we still don’t have any sort of release or pricing details yet, we can certainly see that Oma Zi-O will be a lavish and ornate repaint of the first Zi-O Figuart.
The Figuarts Blog does mention to check back in regards to future releases, and we doubt that after seeing the figure twice now that it won’t see the light of day at some point. So as release details become available we’ll be sure to update you.
