Melon Arms!

The elder Kureshima brother makes his debut in the S.I.C. line with S.I.C. Kamen Rider Zangetsu Melon Arms!

Zangetsu has been seen at a couple of events alongside S.I.C.’s of Gaim, Baron, & Ryugen for the last several months and so far is only the 2nd S.I.C. figure from Gaim to have confirmed release info. As with any S.I.C., Zangetsu gets his own spin on his standard design including an optional way to display the armor in Samurai pedestal style. He also includes a Musou Saber with interchangeable blade as well as an insanely cool version of the Melon Defender with a bonus pincer mode.

S.I.C. Kamen Rider Zangetsu Melon Arms will be released in November as a Tamashii Web Exclusive for 8856 yen.

The lord of the Gurongi is at long last ready to awaken! After being seen at a couple of recent Tamashii Events, S.H. Figuarts Shinkocchou Seihou N-Daguva-Zeba is finally scheduled for release!

As a companion to the upcoming Shinkocchou Seihou Ultimate Kuuga, N-Daguva-Zeba is absolutely gorgeous. However he may not be on everyone’s buy list. Daguva comes only with 3 additional sets of hands for accessories. SS releases tend to run at a bit higher price point anyway, but the the lack of accessories aren’t quite reflected in his price. That being said this figure looks like it would be an impressive shelf piece.

In any case S.H. Figuarts Shinkocchou Seihou N-Daguva-Zeba is scheduled for a December 2016 release as a Tamashii Web Exclusive. Retail price is 7344 yen.

under Ultraman

Bandai has just updated it’s Ultraman 50th Anniversary page with a full set of official images for S.H. Figuarts Zetton!

This figure was just revealed in last weeks’ Tamashii Pick Up so there’s nothing new we haven’t seen before. But it’s nice to get a full look at this upcoming release. Zetton appears to at least include an effect part for interacting with S.H. Figuarts Ultraman, though not much else. We’ll update you if that changes.

S.H. Figuarts Zetton will be released in October as a retail release for 6480 yen.

A new pair of items has just gone on display at Tamashii Features 2016! Kind of an odd couple, neither of these figures currently has any confirmed release details at all, but they’re so cool we had to share them.

First up is S.H. Figuarts Takeshi Hongo! Representing actor Hiroshi Fujioka as he appeared in 1971’s original Kamen Rider series, this figure would potentially be the first ever figuart released of a tokusatsu hero in their civilian form. Could this be a new trend further down the line? Next up is a unique possible re-release of an old favorite. S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Black Luminous Ver. A reuse of the incredibly popular Black Renewal figure but with the added feature of LED compound eyes! A Tamashii “Stage Act Wireless” set is also apparently included with this figure.

Again neither of these reveals are confirmed for release but they were simply too incredible not to share. All image of Hongo & Black come courtesy of Dengeki Hobby Web.

under Godzilla

Yet another dual tribute to Hideaki Anno’s upcoming Shin Godzilla/Godzilla Resurgence and his prolific anime series Neon Genesis Evangelion has just been revealed!

Releasing in January 2017 is S.H.MonsterArts Godzilla Feat. EVA-01! Similar in nature to the recently revealed Mecha Godzilla Eva 01 Version vinyl, this figure is a cross promotion for the upcoming theatrical release of Shin Godzilla. This particular release is based on the Godzilla 1994 monsterart which is pretty cool considering the following year is when Evangelion premiered. This version of Godzilla is done up in iconic Eva Unit 01 color scheme which oddly gives him the appearance of wearing a green bikini. (Try unseeing that!)

S.H.MonsterArts Godzilla Feat. EVA-01 will be released as a Tamashii Web Exclusive for 9936 yen.

under Kamen Rider

After being teased for release yesterday S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Zero Drive has just been fully revealed ahead of this weekend Tamashii Features event! We expect to see this figure and other recent reveals on display at the event.

Zero Drive is of course the movie exclusive form used by Shinnosuke during the events of Ghost X Drive Super Movie Wars Genesis. As a fairly basic repaint of Type Spee this figuart includes the same basic accessory load out.

S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Zero Drive  is set for release as a Tamashii Web Exclusive in October for 5184 yen.

under Kamen Rider

After a LONG wait Kamen Rider fans can finally rejoice. Long rumored, the one rider most demanded to receive the premium treatment from Bandai is finally getting his due! S.H. Figuarts Shinkocchou Seihou Kamen Rider W (Cyclone/Joker) is finally happening!

A full set of official images of this gorgeous hero have just been posted on the Tamashii Nations website along with confirmed release info. W is scheduled to ship this October and retails for 6480 yen. As with the primary forms of other riders receiving the Shinkocchou Seihou treatment, W will be a retail release. He includes 5 sets of additional hands and sports an alternate version of his muffler/scarf to replicate it’s sometimes more exaggerated look.
