Just announced a few days ago, we now have official images for the upcoming S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Garren Broken Head Version!

As speculated Broken Garren features a bit of a toned down color scheme, opting for more of a burnt red than a bright magenta. It does of course feature the new Broken “battle damaged” head. But surprisingly this figure also features a battle damaged chest! Garren also includes several sets of additional hands, his trademark sidearm the Garren Rouzer, and his Rouze Cards in splayed out form as an effect piece for the Rouzer.

S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Garren Broken Head Version will be released as a Toei Hero Net Exclusive figure in January and retails for 6156 yen.

In a surprising turn of events (not really) Bandai has found at least one more way to milk a little money out of Kamen Rider Blade fans. Revealed thanks to Shishioh we have confirmation of an upcoming Toei Hero Net Exclusive figuart!

S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Garren Broken Head Ver. is set for release in January 2016 for 6156 yen. Though there are no images of this release currently, we can expect to see them very soon. It obviously follows on from the Blade Broken Head release so it will likely feature a slightly altered color scheme in addition to the new head.

Be on the lookout for your preferred middleman to throw up orders for Garren Broken Head Ver. soon!

Pairing perfectly with the DX Yokai Hammer, Premium Bandai just opened up pre orders for the DX Gashadokuro Yo Shuriken.

This Shuriken is of course the one that Kyuemon uses in the show to summon giant Yokai as such, the Shuriken will share functionality with the DX Yokai Hammer itself. Interestingly, the photos indicate that it can be used with the DX Ichibantou as well.

The DX Gashadokuro Yo Shuriken will be released in December 2015 with a relatively affordable  price tag of just 2,700 yen before shipping and other fees from your preferred middleman.

A few months ago when Artisan Rodeomaru went up for order via Premium Bandai, we were also given a tease of an Artisan release for Chouzetsu Akaninger. Not only do we now know this figure is a pack-in bonus with Artisan Rodeomaru, but we also have official images!

Artisan Chouzetsu Akaninger stands 65mm tall (about 2.5 inches) compared to Rodeo & Shinobimarus’ roughly 125 mm. So he’s quite tiny. But this fully articulated mini-figure serves as a high end replacement for your DX Akaninger included with Lion Ha Oh. The figure includes just 3 accessories as well. The Ninja Ichibantou, and what appear to be a couple of panels that currently serve an unknown purpose. Perhaps they facilitate his combination with Lion Ha Oh? We’ll keep you updated as more information on this diminutive new figure comes out!

The set of Rodeomaru & Chouzetsu Akaninger retails for 5994 yen and is currently set for a December release!

Follow the sun! Catch the sun!

TokuNation returns at long last with a new S.H. Figuarts Super Sentai gallery! Though releases are few and far between in recent years those that have come out have been fantastic figures to review. Today is no different as we’re taking a look at the recent Tamashii Web Exclusive 2-pack of S.H. Figuarts Vul Shark & Vul Panther from Taiyo Sentai Sun Vulcan!

When we reviewed Vul Eagle way back in December I had nothing but praise to heap upon that figure, and now I get to do the same thing, twice! S.H. Figuarts Vul Shark & Vul Panther retain all of the excellent qualities that made Vul Eagle perfect. Top notch sculpt and paint work on top of an almost perfection accessory selection make it pretty hard to not like these figures. And in a rare occurence this release officially completes the Sun Vulcan team! Granted they only had 3 (technically 4) members but it’s a rarity these days. If you haven’t picked up Vul Shark & Vul Panther yet I highly suggest it, this 2-pack will bring just a little bit more of that old school Showa class to your collection.

We’ve attached a selection of images to this post but feel free to peruse 70 images of S.H. Figuarts Vul Shark & Vul Panther as well as an in depth review. Simply click “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post. The quick version though? Buy theses figures. And here’s to hoping that one day the Sun Vulcan villains of Black Magma may get the same excellent treatment that these heroes of the sun did. Eagle, Shark, Panther!

Pre orders for the DX Marron Energy Lock Seed will end August 27, 2015 with a shipping Date of sometime in November. The set retails for 2,700 yen before shipping/middleman fees, and will include a Genesis Core unit.

It looks like at least one of this years movie exclusive Rider suits is about to get the figure treatment! Just revealed, with official images in tow thanks to the Premium Bandai website, is S.H.Figuarts Kamen Rider Drive Super Dead Heat!

Super Deat Heat is Shinosuke’s temporary power up exclusive to the Kamen Rider Drive Surprise Future movie. A Frankenstein of sorts this form is accessed with a Mach Driver, while using the Tridoron Key, & produces a red Mashin Chaser body with a Drive Type Speed head that features additional asymmetrical detailing. A gorgeous figure for sure it appears to be lacking somewhat in the accessories. The order page currently only lists 3 sets of hands for each arm.

S.H.Figuarts Kamen Rider Drive Super Dead Heat will be released as a Tamashii Web Exclusive for 5940 yen in March!
