The train is in the station! Ressha Sentai ToQger is well underway and so is our coverage of the toyline!

Today we’re sharing this gallery of the Norikae (Transfer) Change ToQ 1 figure! At first glance a lot of people may have dismissed this as “just another gimmick line”. And while it doesn’t contain the juiciness of the Kamen Rider Gaim Arms Change line, Norikae Change is certainly a step above standard fair for Sentai. Unlike Figures of previous years these are actually about the same scale as the accompanying rider (Gaim) line. And are roughly equivalent to S.H. Figuarts in terms of size and posability.

If you’re on the fence about this figure then just click “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post to be taken to our full gallery and review of this fun figure. I highly recommend it!

We love us any and all Kamen Rider Gaim merchandise here at TokuNation.com. One of our favorite lines to collect has also been one of the hardest to grab at retail – the Arms Change series of figures and accessories from Bandai Japan. Our friend and site contributor baltmatrix FINALLY got his hands on a figure set he had been looking forward to for some time now – the Arms Change 09 Kurokage with Tulip Hopper set – and was kind enough to do a video review of the figure. What’s the worst part about this figure? Is the extra dough for the Tulip Hopper worth it? If you’re on the fence on whether or not you want to pay the secondary market price for this figure, check out baltmatrix‘s review below and then make your decision!

The images in this video are courtesy our very own Den-O. If you’re not a subscriber to baltmatrix and his video channel then you should probably fix that by becoming a subscriber! Simply click here and subscribe so you never miss a beat on any of his video reviews. For all you Transformers fans out there, we’re getting close to the release of the Age of Extinction toy line. Why throw $40 at a figure that used to cost you $25 without first checking baltmatrix‘s video reviews? We’ve linked this news story to the gallery that Den-O did of the Arms Change Kurokage figure – go ahead and comment on it and the video review!

The latest round of ToQGer toy scans is now online!

For starters we now have the first look at Toq6’s main Resshas, a pair of orange vehicles known as the Build Resshas. Their (unrevealed) combined form is known as “Build DaiOh!”

We also get to see the movie-exclusive remold of ToQOh, called “Safari GaOh!”

In addition we see four new Legacy Resshas from previous Super Sentai teams: Gokaiger, Goseiger, Shinkenger and Go-Onger Resshas!

Last but certainly not least we get a quick look at a new weapon for the ToQGers- the “DaiKaiten Cannon,” which fires multiple Resshas by rotating new tracks into attack form. The Daikaiten Cannon will be sold with a special golden repaint of the Red Ressha.

Definitely a lot of good things coming down the tracks from ToQGer!

The latest figure in the highly-popular Arms Change series is now heading to store shelves, and some video reviewers have already gotten a close look!

Youtube reviewer “k2eizo” offers a briew demo, while “wotakufighter” gives us a full-length review in Two Parts.

If any fans were lucky enough to secure a preorder for this awesome new Arms Change, keep a close eye on your mailboxes- you should be billed for it very soon!

Bandai.JP’s official YouTube channel has put up a short teaser for the long-awaited SH Figuarts Hibiki!

This video gives us a much closer look at the Hibiki Figuarts sculpt than early magazine scans, and Bandai appears to have perfectly recreated the Oni Rider. We also get a close glimpse at some of Hibiki’s included accessories- the Ongekibou Rekka drumsticks, the Tuning Fork used to henshin and at least one Disc Animal.

Figuarts Hibiki is scheduled for release in August at an estimated price of 5400 Yen!
