On top of the incredible looking S.I.C. Kamen Rider Gaim Orange Arms revealed earlier today we have new images showcasing 3 more S.I.C. Gaim Riders! No other information is available currently but we have initial images of:

S.I.C. Kamen Rider Baron Banana Arms

S.I.C. Kamen Rider Zangetsu Melon Arms

S.I.C. Kamen Rider Ryugen Budou arms

These 3 are already looking just as impressive as Gaim himself. Time will tell if these figures, or even Gaim, see an actual release. But for now enjoy these images as our coverage of Tamashii Nations 2015 continues!

The first day of the show has wound down but Tamashii Nations 2015 will go on through this weekend. We’ve had a ton of reveals up to this point but a LOT more are apparently on the way as more sections of the show are made available to the general public. A portion of the rumored figures list comes from The Ghouly News, but still take it with a bit of salt as we can’t confirm some of these figures yet. Thanks to some teaser images released by Bandai we have at least a few confirmed things to look forward to:

S.H. Figuarts
Ultra Seven
Ultraman Zoffy
Ultraman Ace
Ultraman jack
Ultraman Taro
Ultraman Leo

There are still yet more releases coming and this is only a partial list of what’s been seen and what’s been hinted at. Rest assured that Tamashii Nations 2015 is not over and we will continue to pour over the internet until we have more concrete information to share.

Change, 01!

TokuNation is back with the finale (for now) of it’s classic Showa Kikaider galleries! Kikaider 01 is finally complete with the S.H. Figuarts Double Machine!

Kikaider 01’s Double Machine is the successor to his brother the original Kikaiders’ Side Machine. A beast of a vehicle, the Double Machine dwarfs it’s predecessor and many other Figuarts bikes. It’s a big, beautifully sculpted and lavishly painted ride that will fit in perfectly with any Kiakider collection. So far the Double Machine is the final Kikaider release from Bandai in the S.H. Figuarts line but a number of other prototypes, primarily for Kikaider Reboot, have been shown off previously. So there is some hope that the line isn’t dead yet. But for now this is a magnificent send off for Kikaider fans.

We’ve attached a selection of images to this post but you can check out the full 25+ image gallery of the S.H. Figuarts Double Machine by clicking “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post. And please feel free to browse the previous Kikaider galleries we’ve posted!

People have asked for years about the generic bodied figures that Tamashii Nations has used in displays at various conventions. Well it looks like they need ask no more, as it appears a version of these figures will be made available to the general public!

The S.H. Figuarts Blank Bodies are just what the name implies. Blank slates with a full range of articulation and a wealth of accessories. These will be perfect bases for customizes to produce just about any male or female figure they choose. They even come in two different color options. The S.H. Figuarts Blank Bodies will be released in 4 varieties:

  • S.H. Figuarts Blank Body Gray Color DX (Male) – 6480 yen
  • S.H. Figuarts Blank Body Gray Color DX (Female) – 6480 yen
  • S.H. Figuarts Blank Body Pale Orange Color Version (Male) – 4320 yen
  • S.H. Figuarts Blank Body Pale Orange Color Version (Female) – 4320 yen

The DX sets in Gray will come with a plethora of accessories including 17 hands, a kitana, and even a unique Tamashii stage storage case. Meanwhile the Pale Orange sets will be cheaper and feature fewer accessories, each version only coming with 8 hands.

For those ambitious enough out there, and with the right skills, it looks like the gaps in your S.H. Figuarts collections may finally be filled with a little hard work!

Another surprise reveal has gone up on the Premium Bandai site! This time it’s for another upcoming Tamashii Web Exclusive, a new re-release of sorts. Ultra-Act x S.H. Figuarts Manga Ultraman Special Edition!

This new figure is actually a re-release of the Manga Ultraman that came out back in July. However those who purchased that retail release figure may feel a bit cheated. Ultraman Special Edition includes several accessories that the 1st release did not. An unmasked Shinjiro head, armblade effect parts, and a personalized Tamashii Stage!

Ultra-Act x S.H. Figuarts Manga Ultraman Special Edition will be released as a Tamashii Web Exclusive in May 2016 for 6480 yen!

Ahead of it’s official debut at Tamashii Nations 2015 next week, a teaser image has just cropped up of S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Ghost Ore Damashii!

Though the image is shadowed out we can see Ghost Ore Damashii clearly looks like his on screen counterpart and at least includes his Gan Gun Saber. Other accessories and features are currently unknown at this point, as are pricing and release date.

Be sure to follow our coverage of Tamashii Nations 2015 from October 30th-November 1st next week! We’re sure to see more of S.H. Figuarts Ghost Ore Damashii & a host of other new reveals there!

This is one heck of a surprise, the Tamashii Web Shop has just revealed a pair of Web Exclusive releases completely out of left field. The primary component of both being S.H. Figuarts Dragranzer! The upgraded Contract Monster formed when Kamen Rider Ryuki Survive is born. Dragranzer is a far more powerful form of Dragreder that could also turn into a motorcycle. Awesomely the Figuart can fully transform into it’s motorcycle mode!

S.H. Figuarts Dragranzer will be released in  1 of 2 ways. A single pack release which is Dragranzer only for 11,880 yen. The second of which is as a 2-pack which includes the several years old release of S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Ryuki Survive! This 2-pack also includes the Tamashii Stage that originally came with the original release of Ryuki Survive. Both of these sets will be Tamashii Web Exclusives set for release in April 2016!
