Lion Henge!

We’re back with yet another fired up gallery & review from Shuriken Sentai Ninninger! This time we take a look at the massive Sky Otomonin himself, DX Lion Ha Oh!

Unusually for a toy of it’s nature, Lion Ha Oh is not the final toy to be released in this line as we still have the 6-piece Gekiatsu Dai Oh coming up. However Lion Ha Oh still falls into the category of the big but largely hollow Q3/Q4 releases with multiple forms:

  • Lion Ha Ojo– the rolling castle/tank
  • Lion Ha Oh– the unique robot mode form
  • Ha Oh Shurkenjin– A massive combination that incorporates all the primary components of DX Shurikenjin & Bison King

Included for use with any of these 3 forms is also a fun little Chouzetsu Akaninger figure that’s roughly the size of a Bandai America Ranger Key. We’ve got some comparisons with other similarly sized figures as well. Lion Ha Oh itself is larger though, so large that size comparisons really don’t do it justice. Scroll through our gallery to check out how it dwarfs and absorbs DX Shurikenjin.

Ultimately DX Lion Ha Oh will be the make or break figure in the line for many collectors simply due to it’s shear size & cost, but we welcome you to check out our complete 60+ image gallery to make that decision for yourself! Wasshoi!

Rounding out tonight’s official image dump, we have a look at the upcoming S.H. Figuarts Garo Lost Shine (Ryuga) Version from 2013’s Garo The One Who Shines In The Darkenss!

It’s been some time since a new Garo S.H. Figuart has been released. With only the original Garo, Taiga, & Zero having been released several years ago, and the continued Web Exclusivity of the the franchises Makai Kado line, many thought the Figuarts subline dead. But thanks to the recent popularity of the franchise Garo Lost Shine (Ryuga) Version will at last be released! A fairly lite release, Ryuga version includes 3 & 1/2 sets of additional hands and the Garo Sword.

S.H. Figuarts Garo (Lost Shine) Ryuga Version will be released as a Tamashii Web inclusive in February 2016 for 5940 yen!

Continuing tonight’s official image dump, we have a look at the upcoming S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Orga!

Yuji Kiba isn’t unfamiliar with the powers of a Kamen Rider, having accessed 2 different sets of them through out the Kamen Rider Faiz TV series. But it was his third power set, seen only in the 555 film Paradise Lost, that collectors have clamored for the release of. Kamen Rider Orga is finally presented here in all his glory! For accessories Orga includes 2 versions of the Orga Gear/Driver, 2 versions of the Orga Phone, and both versions of the Orga Stlanzer!

S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Orga will be released in February 2016 as a Tamashii Web Exclusive for 5184 yen.

Initially revealed way back in May at Tamashii Nations Summer Collection, the Tamashii Web Shop has just thrown up an official order page for S.I.C. Hakaider!

A companion piece to the S.I.C. Kikaider being released in October, this version of Hakaider seems to take after his Mechanical Violator incarnation. Hakaider looks to include 1 sets of additional hands, a swap out chest plate, and his Hakaider Shot handgun. S.I.C. Hakaider will be released as a Tamashii Web Exclusive in February 2016 for 7344 yen.

Be sure to contact your favorite middleman service today to order S.I.C. Hakaider!

Teased in silhouette form way back in July, we finally have an initial image of Kamen Rider Specter! The secondary rider for this years upcoming Kamen Rider Ghost.

Specter’s costume is incredibly similar to Ghost’s own basic form, Ore Damashii. Specter Damashii swaps out the orange for blue, features a new chest emblem, and also has a rather cool looking crest on his helmet to set him apart. It definitely sells the idea of these 2 sharing common powers and tech better than most 2 rider systems. This image also gives us a look at prototypes of the Gangan Hand & Driver.

We’ll keep you up to date as more information and images become available regarding Kamen Riders Ghost & Specter!

Thanks to a new listing on Amazon.JP we have full official images of the Ghost Change GC-01 Ore Damashii Figure! 

Ghost’s default form, Ore Damashii comes with a basic Ghost body as well as the Ore jacket. Which can itself be played with/displayed in it’s individual ghostly form. Also included is a non-transforming version of Ghost’s Gangan Saber.

The Current Amazon list price for GC01 Ghost Ore Damashii is 3456 yen. Pre-orders have begun to pop up for this figure at several online toy retailers as well so look out for this figure to release in October!

Wasshoi!

At long last TokuNation is fired up to present this latest gallery! A recent Bandai Premium release from Shuriken Sentai Ninninger, today we take an extensive look at the Super Sentai Artisan Chogokin Shinobimaru!

Chogokin Shinobimaru is Bandai Premium’s first entirely new figure for Ninninger, soon to be followed up by Rodeomaru & Chouzetsu Akaninger. More than a simple DX with metal parts like last years’ Chogokin ToQ Oh, Shinobimaru is an entirely new super articulated diecast infused action figure meant to replace the DX that came with Shurikenjin. While it may be lacking a bit in the accessories department (a small shoulder mounted Akaninger) it more than makes up for this with excellent articulation, strong QC, and just the perfect amount of metal to give this little guy some heft.

Make no mistake when we say extensive either, we’ve put together 70 images of Super Sentai Artisan Chogokin Shinobimaru for your viewing pleasure! We’ve even included a comparison between Shinobimaru and the classic release Soul of Chogokin Battle Fever Robo, the predecessor to all modern Sentai Chogokins. Attached to this post are just a small selection of the images, to view them all click “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post.

Searching, destroying, all done at mach speed! And this time Kamen Rider Mach has a little bit of help, today we’re taking a look at the recently released S.H. Figuarts Ride Macher! 

The Ride Macher is both the companion piece and sort of the successor to the Ride Chaser and these brother machines share a base in the Honda NM4. At their core the figures are quite similar as well. The Ride Macher trades out the Chaser’s dark theme for a bright futuristic look that definitely syncs up with Mach’s own racing motif. The Ride Macher also includes many more accessories than the Ride Chaser in the form of 2 new Advent Signals and their accompanying Signal Bikes; Tomarle & Kaksarn! As with the Chaser a 1st run bonus accessory is also included, the Funky Spike Effect! Sadly of course this bike can not form the mighty Ride Crosser with the Ride Chaser, unlike the DX’s they simply aren’t capable of it.

We’ve attached a selection of images to this post but check out our full discussion thread by clicking “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” in order to see the full 40+ images of the S.H. Figuarts Ride Macher & the Funky Spike Effect Bonus!
