As the Arms change line keeps chugging along, we finally have an image of the next upcoming retail release from the line. AC12 Energy/Kamen Rider Duke!
It was speculated for some time that Duke’s Lemon Energy Arms would be a remold of Mango Arms, and it appears to be true for the most part. Though the mold of course has it’s own unique bits too. AC Duke will be released in May!
Walk the path of heaven!
His grandmother always knew it, and so did we. Souji Tendou/Kamen Rider Kabuto has always been destined for greatness! So is it any wonder that his S.H.Figuart is the first to receive Bandai’s radical new premium makeover?
In today’s gallery/review we take a look at this excellent new figure. Implementing a brand new basic SHF body as well as an entirely new wrist peg/hand system, Kamen Rider Kabuto Renewal is the first in a new line of premium SHF releases soon to be continued by Hibiki. If you don’t have any experience with the original Kabuto figuart then you should check this one out, And if you do have experience with it then you DEFINITELY need to check out the renewal. It’s a simply excellent figure, that wholly improves on the original.

The third quarter toy releases for Ressha Sentai ToQger made their grainy debut last month. But we didn’t actually get to see everything. Site sponsor BigBadToyStore has just rectified that for us with brand new higher res official images! Check out these new official images for:
Right now Safari Ga Oh is said to be the “movie exclusive” robo for this year. Build Dai Oh will be the personal mecha of ToQ 6 who has yet to appear. And the new Legend Sentai Resshas may feature in some sort of film much like their Kyoryuger & Go-Buster predecessors.

Ishinomori’s legendary dual-colored hero is finally heading to Figuarts!
A recent magazine scan gives us a quick look at Kikaider’s Figuarts form; this release seems to use the iconic design rather than the revised version from the upcoming new film. For better or worse Kikaider appears to be marked as a Tamashii Web Exclusive.
Rival character Hakaider will also be appearing in toy form but at the moment his Figuart is only seen in shadow.
Kikaider is listed as a September release with an estimated price tag of 4860 Yen!
Ryu Ho! Ha ha ha!

Love or hate the character (most likely hate) the figure of him looks gorgeous! Check out a few of the official images for Ryugen after the jump!
A new catalog scan has turned up online & gives us some new details regarding the second season of Ultraman Ginga!
*The new hero Ultraman Victory is heavily featured in this new merchandise, receiving two new roleplay weapons: the Strium Brace transformation device and the Victory Lancer weapon.
