A special “Tamashii Caravan” event recently took place at the Parco store in Fukuoka, and among the numerous figure displays was the reappearance of the S.H. Figuarts Shocker figures previously seen at the Tamashii World Tour stop in Tapei!

However this time in addition to the new body Shocker Combatmen, Great Leader and Garagaranda figures, the evil organisation was also joined by the fiddler crab monster Shiomaneking! As well as battling against Kamen Riders 1 and 2 in the original series, Shiomaneking would also go on to be revived in Kamen Rider V3 as well appearing in numerous crossover movies and even the Zyuohger crossover episode with Kamen Rider Ghost!

While it’s important to note that none of these figures have a release date yet, Bandai Tamashii Nation‘s new interest in the wider world of Kamen Rider villains is very exciting! We’ll bring you more news as it comes!

Rounding out our trio of Zyuranger Minipla releases, Bandai’s Candy Toy blog was just updated with our first look at the Super Minipla King Brachion/Titanus!

No release info was provided in this post given that it’s still clearly in early development. But given that his size and price point matches that of Super Minipla’s King J-Der from GaoGaiGar, we can expect this to be a potential Premium Bandai with a similar price tag of 10,000 yen.
