Hot on the heels of recently released W Fang/Joker Tamashii Nations is teasing us with possibly (?) the next two releases in Shinkocchou Seihou line of Figuarts! Seen this week at the Tamashii Nations Akiba Showroom, AND on the official Figuarts blog, both Heat/Metal & Luna/Trigger are looking good as ever. Showroom images come way of @aaarairider on twitter.

You may recall that we had initial reveals for both of these figures waaaaaay back at Tamashii Nations 2016. Since then we haven’t heard much about them, but another pair of easy repaints feels like the kind of move Bandai would make at this point. Shinkocchou Seihou S.H. Figuart’s last several releases have been centered on Kamen Rider’s W & Kabuto, but we wonder where the line could go next. Perhaps the gorgeous S.S. Wizard prototype seen earlier this year? We hope!

What are your thoughts on this pair of beauties? Feel free to chime in the discussion thread below!

“Proceeding with Level 100.”

Hiiro Kagami is the prodigy surgeon who can cut anything. Foil & ally to Kamen Rider Ex-Aid throughout the series’ run, Hiiro would eventually be forced into the service of Masamune Dan. With the hope of reviving his beloved Saki, Hiiro is forced to fight his allies and take on the power of his Game World self. Created from the data of True Brave, Hiro will have the legendary Taddle Legacy Gashat bestowed upon him, catapulting him to Level 100! Though Saki may be gone, Hiro will never give up hope that one day he can restore her and all those lost to the Bugster Virus. This is S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Brave Legacy Gamer Level 100!

Brave Level 100 is another hotly anticipated release from Kamen Rider Ex-Aid. And it’s also an odd one. Bandai has skipped right past Hiiro’s Level 50 form for this Level 100 release. Maybe one day they’ll go back to it? For the most part this figure is one we’re intimately familiar with thanks to the Level 2 & Level 5 Brave releases, but the new regal Legacy Gamer armor and cape parts are really interesting new additions to this otherwise fantastic mold. Adding to this we finally have a properly complete version of the Exploding/Freezing Gashacon Sword as well!

We’ve attached our full 60+ image gallery of Brave Level 100 to this post but you can also read our full review by clicking “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post. We’ll be back soon with more new galleries from Kamen Rider Kabuto and Choujuu Sentai Liveman!

“What do we do?!”

“We fight!”

We’re rolling out the PPDC’s  final two Jeagers in one double sized gallery today. Guardian Bravo embodies the bulky power of it’s predecessors and improves on the Gipsy series’ chain sword with it’s own unique weapon. Saber Athena meanwhile is the newest and fastest Jaeger in the fleet/ Built for agility and finesse, Athena is a remarkable close range fighter. Can these two next gen titans turn the tide of the war? We’ll see with their Robot Spirits figures!

Both of these figures really stand out in the line. Guardian Bravo features a far brighter color scheme than any of the other Jaegers, and Saber Athena features vastly improved articulation and really unique proportions compared to the others. Bravo also comes with it’s signature Arc-16 Elec Whips while Athena comes with both of the Ionic Twin Blades as well as the larger Ionic Sword. For the last two figure we have to handle in this line (for now) they really are great ones to finish it on.

We’ve got a full 80 image gallery of this pair (split across 3 posts) that you can see by clicking “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post. Our next gallery after this will focus on the valiant knight Kamen Rider Brave Level 100!

This mighty figure is scheduled for release in September 2018 for 9936 yen and will be a Tamshii Web Exclusive. Be sure to contact your preferred web exckusive middle man service to secure an order for this figure in the near future.

under Ultraman

Even though the line has since moved on to both Ultraseven and The Return of Ultraman, Tamashii Nations continue to show their love to the original 1966 Ultraman series with the reveal of S.H. Figuarts Antlar! First appearing in episode 06 of the series, this insectoid monster terrorised the ancient civilisation of Baraji. Ultraman was able to put a stop to its rampages, thanks to the Stone of Baraji – an artefact left to them by Ultraman Noa many years ago.

S.H. Figuarts Antlar is a Tamashii web exclusive due for release September, priced at 7560 yen. It will come packaged with a burrow hole effect part that the top half of the figure can be connected to.

Will Antlar be joining your kaiju collection? Check out the images and let us know after the jump!

“We’re gonna need more pilots.”

“We have ’em.”

With a new apocalypse on the horizon in desperate need of cancelling, a new batch of pilots ready to make a difference, and hopefully a little bit of luck, the next generation of Jaegers are ready to roll out! While today’s subjects aren’t quite the latest models, they pack more than enough brute force to fight some Kaiju. Leading into Pacific Rim Uprising’s finale the mighty Titan Redeemer & Bracer Phoenix helped to shape Earth’s final defense. Now let’s see how these two latest Robot Spirits from Tamashii Nations fare in a double sized gallery!

In a sense, Titan Redeemer & Bracer Phoenix are some of the most traditional designs in this film, and I find that really charming about them. Big bulky brutes that are ready to knock out some Kaiju. They may not have all the bells and whistles of other Jaegers like Gipsy Avenger, but these big guys along with their tiny included buddy Scrapper Jaeger are ready to cancel the 2nd apocalypse. Luckily for Earth kit-bashing is still popular in the future as well. So for the Final Battle we got to see a special combination of these two. And despite it not being a documented or even intended feature, these figures CAN pull it off! See the end of this gallery for a special look at Bracer Phoenix Final Battle Version!

Check out just over 60 images of this pair by clicking “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post. We have a full breakdown of both figures and their accessories, as well as an explanation of how to your own Final Battle Bracer Phoenix. We’ll be back soon with more brand new galleries from Pacific Rim Uprising as well as Kamen Riders Kabuto & Ex-Aid!

“Be advised, we have a rogue Jaeger.”

In the years’ long war against the Precursors & their weapons of mass destruction, the Kaiju, the Pan Pacific Defense Corps has continued to develop newer and better Jaegers. And while a Drone program is also under development by Shao Industries to eventually replace the PPDC & it’s pilots, the occasional rogue element does arise. Enter: Obsidian Fury. A mysterious Jaeger which rose from the ocean to battle Gipsy Avenger. Equipped with advanced weaponry and capable of entirely inhuman movement, this monstrous mech is a force for our heroes to reckon with. Can Jake & Nate uncover the secret truth of Obsidian Fury? You’ll have to watch Pacific Rim Uprising to find out!

Robot Spirits Obsidian Fury is one of several more entries in the Uprising line from Tamashii Nations, and it actually winds up being our only villain so far. A really quite alien design, Obsidian is a menacing Jaeger with some great glowing light piping in it’s head and a couple of bright neon orange Plasma Chainsaws to really sell its look. One of the more articulated figures in the line, Obsidian Fury is every bit as poseable, bestial, & alien as it’s  background would imply.

You can check out our full 60 image gallery of Obsidian Fury by clicking “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post. We’ll also be doubling up on our other upcoming Pacific Rim galleries in the near future, 2 Jeagers at a time!  Titan Redeemer & Bracer Phoenix and Saber Athena & Guardian Bravo.
