It’s finally here! S.H.Figuarts Mighty Morphin’ Green Ranger and Red Ranger (Zyurangers’ Dragon Ranger and Tyranno Ranger) first seen during Tamashi Nations 2012 are now up for pre-order!

And they’ll be arriving much sooner then we think: Red will be shipping in August while Green will be coming in July.

Both Figuarts will retail for $41.95, Red will come with his Power Sword Gun in both sword and Gun modes and a Power Sword, while Green will include his signature Dragon Dagger and Sword of Darkness

You can pre order them both at Fantastic Plastic toys.com

UPDATE:
Pre orders for both these figures are now open at Big Bad Toy Store, for those looking for a reliable alternative.

under Kamen Rider

Bandai’s Tamashii Nations website has announced another chance for fans to pick up two popular SH Figuarts figures with re-releases in May! The two figures in question are Kamen Rider Fourze Base States and Kamen Rider Ryuki, who comes with his contract beast Dragreder.

Zangyack and cyclones and crabs, oh my! Tonight has marked a flurry of activity as Tamashii Web is updating with the latest exclusives in their various lines in June. Prime among them is the long-anticipated and hinted S.H. MonsterArts “accessory” set intended to complete the upcoming Destoroyah release, from Godzilla vs. Destoroyah (1995). As reported last week, a leaked scan from Figure-Oh magazine with the name, price, and release month was quickly followed by newer scans earlier today and finally leading to the official Bandai announcement, product listing on Tamashii Webshop, and even confirmation from Bluefin that the set would be coming to the US!

The Destoroyah Evolution Set unfortunately includes no known effect parts, but still accessorizes well with the Destoroyah Final Form coming to Japan in February, expected in the US in March. The set includes three different stages in the growth of the Precambrian crustacean – a less-developed Crab, the infamous Aggregate Form which fought Godzilla Junior in the film, and the rarely-produced-in-plastic Flying Form which preceded the monstrous final form. All three figures are appropriated scaled to their final form as well as prior releases Burning Godzilla and Godzilla Junior and will be available in June at a cost of 8400 yen according to both the earlier scans and the Tamashii Web listing. Bluefin will be releasing the Destoroyah Evolution Set in North America as announced mere minutes ago on their Facebook page with pricing and date to be determined.

under New York Comic Con

At New York Comic Con 2012, I had the honor and privilege to interview the Bandai of Japan Rep that works closely with their US distributor: BlueFin. Being Tamashii Nation‘s sole distributor outside of Japan, many wondered if BlueFin has became more than just a distributor for Tamashii Nation? I asked Adam these questions and more, and Adam had some very cool answers for us, please watch the video below:

The Bluefin Tamashii Nations USA Facebook page has posted a photo of 2 cosplayers as Rita Repulsa & Lord Zedd. Their caption:
[Quote]Figuarts of these 2 would be cool right? We’ll see how things go with what’s already planned![/quote]
Fire away! Do you want to see S.H. Figuarts Rita Repulsa & S.H. Figuarts Lord Zedd? Would the Mighty Morphin’ Power Rangers 20th Anniversary be complete without them? DISCUSS!
