Bandai Japan has opened a teaser page for the next entry in the Complete Selection Modification collector series.

The next CSM entry will be the Amazons Driver from Kamen Rider Amazons! This special web series aired in 2016 and served as a revamp of sorts to the 1974 release Kamen Rider Amazon.

Sadly, no price or release details for the Amazons Driver have been confirmed at time of writing. However, the page lists July 16 2019 as an announcement date, so stay tuned to TokuNation for further details!

Bandai’s Candy Toy Blog has just fully revealed two new upcoming waves of Shodo-X! Consisting of releases from Kamen Rider Agito as well as Kamen Rider Black & Black RX, we get a huge variety for forms and a few Rider Machines:

Kamen Rider Agito
– Agito Ground Form
– Agito Trinity Form
– Agito ShiningForm
– Machine Tornador (A parts)
– Machine Tornador (B Parts)
– Extension set (Weapons & parts to make Flame/Storm forms)

So you get nearly every Agito form aside from Burning as well as his Rider Machine in this wave! Of note however is that you will need duplicates of Ground & Trinity Form in order to have stand-alone Flame & Storm Forms at the same time. So expect to see cases broken down to sell extras when this wave releases.

Black & RX
– Black
– Black RX
– Battle Hopper
– Acrobatter
– Shadow Moon

Comparisons are shown between these new Shodo-X releases and the original Shodo VS releases for Black & company, illustrating the improvements of the X line. So if you picked up the older VS releases, it looks like a fairly significant upgrade this go around.

“In that case….. There’s only one answer!”

Utsumi Nariaki was one of the Nanba Children. Raised to be loyal to one man only, Juzaburo Nanba. Loyal until the day Juzaburo was murdered, Utsumi faithfully served. But seeing his master’s death at the hands of Kamen Rider Evol pushed him over the edge. With Utsumi’s spirit broken, he was faced with the impossible option to take revenge, or serve Evol. Accepting the power of the Evol Driver and rejecting the pain of his grief, Utsumi is reborn as Kamen Rider Mad Rogue!

A familiar mold returns for it’s 4th outing for Kamen Rider Build. Night Rogue, Blood Stalk, Hell Bros, and now Mad Rogue! A lavish repaint with some new molding, Mad Rogue is absolutely gorgeous in hand. While evoking the fierce grief of Utsumi’s loss, this figure does manage to look a bit like a certain G2 Transformer as well…. Armed with the Nebula Steam Gun and Steam Blade, Mad Rogue is a wonderful (and brightly colored) new menace for your heroic riders!

“I’ll let my passion burn, and crush you.”

Evolt is minutes away from total victory, harnessing the power of Pandora’s Box & the Lost Bottles, he will consume the Earth and countless more planets. Sento & Banjou must press on to fight him, but standing in their way are clones of the Hokuto Three! With only his life left to give, Kazumi will face his fallen friends one more time. But the power of Grease alone won’t be enough. Kazumi must wield the deadly Blizzard Knuckle and walk the lonely path of a hero. With frozen fists and an icy resolve, Grease becomes Kamen Rider Grease Blizzard!

Grease Blizzard joins the Build line up of Figuarts nearly a year after his debut. A very late stage one off addition to the show, it goes without saying that actor Kouhei Takeda’s incredible performance drove his character’s arc, and eventual upgrade. The Blizzard episodes (46 & 47) in particular were very powerful, and it’s wonderful to finally have a figure to represent him in that moment. Grease Blizzard is a combination of the basic Cross-Z & original Grease body molds but features two new key changes as well. The fully functional Blizzard Knuckle & a new robotic left hand, the GBZ Demolition One!

We have an icy 60 images of Kamen Rider Grease Blizzard for you to check out after the jump. Just click “discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post to see them, and read through our full review. The next time we visit the world of Build, we’ll be meeting the mad man himself, Kamen Rider Mad Rogue!

The sixth member of the Kishiryu Sentai RyuSoulger will be introduced very soon, and that means the time has come for new merchandise!

Bandai Japan has released some official images of RyuSoul Gold’s personal DX Mecha– a powerful Mosasaurus known as MosaRex! Like Tyramigo before him, this Kishiryu has a unique battle combo- the warrior Kishiryu Neptune!

MosaRex can also combine with other Kishiryu- a specific combination is revealed using the previously-released DX DimeVolcano which is known as the SpinoThunder configuration.

DX MosaRex will receive a stand-alone release costing 4500 Yen AND a double-release with DimeVolcano for 7700 Yen. Both releases will be available in July 2019!

In a Figuarts Blog update Bandai is showing off the upcoming Machine Kivaa & chair set to go with Shinkocchou Seihou Kamen Rider Kiva. This blog post runs the spectrum of various Figuarts taking Kiva’s throne for a spin. From vintage riders like the original Gattack release along with Sasword, all the way to releases of recent years like Kivala and even Kuroto Dan.

However one surprise in this set of photos is the very first official teaser for Shinkocchou Seihou Kamen Rider Beast! Sitting upon Kiva’s chair and flanked by Seihou Wizard, Beast looks every bit as impressive as Wizard himself. A brand new mold featuring all of the same modern engineering that the Seihou line has come to be known for. No release details have been revealed yet, but it’s only a matter of time before we hear more about this possible release.

“I just can’t see myself replacing you, Zanki.”

Kamen Rider Hibiki finally joined the S.H. Figuarts line over 4 years ago. Then last year, Tamashii finally made their second addition from Hibiki’s world to this line with Kamen Rider Ibuki. And while the Oni Riders have been slow to appear in the Shinkocchou Seihou line, it looks like things are gaining momentum now! With an upcoming release for Kamen Rider Zanki on the way, we’re taking today to look at his recently released apprentice and partner, Kamen Rider Todoroki!

Todoroki is yet another insanely gorgeous Oni to add to your collection. The Hibiki mold has some minor shortcomings still, but it’s undeniable the kind of shelf presence that each successive use of it brings to the table. Todoroki like his predecessors is armed with 3 Disc Animals but more importantly the massive Ongekigen Retsurai. This incredibly ornate guitar weapon is probably one of my favorite accessories in a long time. When combined with Todoroki’s Ongekishin Raigou and with the blades extended, this is a weapon for any villain to fear!

We’ve attached the full 75+ image gallery to this post but you can also read through our full review of Shinkocchou Seihou Todoroki by clicking “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post. Next time, we’ll revisit the world of games and medicine with a gallery of Kamen Rider Poppy!

You may recall that around this time last year, we were all awaiting the first images of Kamen Rider Zi-O. When the first teaser silhouette did eventually surface, it was of a very generic variety. A featureless rounded silhouette that gave nothing away. It would seem now that, this type of initial teaser may become the standard, as it’s being used once again for initial Kamen Rider Zero-One solicits.

The image that’s circulating now features the sound rounded featureless generic design. And given that Zero-One will be the first Reiwa Rider, some secrecy around his finalized design is to be expected. So there’s no real information to be gleaned from this solicit. Other than that, this catalog image does confirm the collectible gimmick for this year as the “Insert Card”.

As more information becomes available for Kamen Rider Zero-One we’ll be sure to update you. Given the time of year it is, it’s only a matter of time before both the gimmick for the series and the finalized design of Zero-One leak online. This initial image came via the Candy Toy Sentai CTS Facebook page.
