The S.H.Figuarts line’s been something of a fan favorite amongst collectors ever since the series first started. Many of us have been hoping that these figures will be easier to obtain domestically, and now it seems like collectors will finally have their chance. In a rather surprising turn of events, it seems that more S.H.Figuarts will be made available domestically for North American consumers at Gamestop of all places thanks to no part to our friends at BluFin. Among those are numerous Kamen Rider and Ultraman figures. Various listings appeared on Gamestop’s website the other night, as reported by various fans in the Toku community. The 20 Rider Kicks versions of the following Figuarts are up for pre-order as of this writing:

S.H.Figuarts Kamen Rider Build Tank Rabbit

  • S.H.Figuarts Kamen Rider Drive Type Speed
  • S.H.Figuarts Kamen Rider Blade
  • S.H.Figuarts Kamen Rider Gaim Orange Arms
  • S.H.Figuarts Kamen Rider Ryuki
  • S.H.Figuarts Kamen Rider Den-O Sword Form
  • In addition to three Ultraman figures:
    S.H.Figuarts Ultraman Blu Aqua
  • S.H.Figuarts Ultraman Rosso Flame
  • S.H.Figuarts Ultraman Zero

A screen grab from Gamestop’s own computers via Twitter user @ShadowThePika can confirm that these figures exist within the system and each one of these Figuarts will retail for reasonable 49.99 each and expected to ship out in February. Of course, we have no way of telling if Gamestop plans on carrying more of these in the future and it seems unlikely that they’ll carry anything P-Bandai exclusive. Still, this opens the floodgates for Kamen Rider collectibles to potentially come stateside!

Gamestop exists outside of North America as EB Games, and while the two companies operate under the same umbrella it’s currently not known they’ll follow suit. Stay tuned, and we at Tokunation will provide you an update to this exciting development as it’s made available.

SELECT, CRYSTAL!

Bandai was certainly quick to hop aboard the S.H.Figuarts Ultraman R/B train this year, here are our first teaser images for the S.H.Figaurts Ultraman R/B line.

Four Figuarts were shown: S.H.Figuarts Ultraman Rosso Flame, S.H.Figuarts Blu Water, S.H.Figuarts Rosso Wind, and finally S.H.Figuarts Blu Ground along with what appears to be personalized Tamashii Act stage stands to correspond with each Ultraman form.

The four will be released at Mass retail, Rosso Flame and Blu Aqua will come out December 2018 while Ground and Wind will come out January it’s unclear if the stands will be included as part of the accessory count or as a first run pre order bonus of some kind. 

Of course, this is all merely speculative based on what little information we currently have available. Stay tuned to Tokunation, and we’ll be sure to give you more up to date info as soon as it becomes available.

Don’t say NO! Just Live MORE!

Continuing our jaunt through Kamen Rider Gaim, Bandai Tamashii just unveiled their prototype of the S.I.C Kamen Rider Gaim ichigo Arms, sporting a very sleek ninja-esque look.

Kamen Rider 2 was teased for a May release window as a general mass retail release a little while ago, the date was confirmed by that very web page.
