Mayday, mayday, SOS!

Continuing what has become a hot streak of Metal Hero related products from Bandai recently is a trio that’s sure to excite many fans! Revealed today at the Tamashii Nations Summer Collection show is the trio of heroes from Tokkei Winspector! S.H. Figuarts Ryoma, Walter, & Bichael look absolutely magnificent. With this trio Bandai continues to narrow the gap of Metal Heroes they’ve yet to release!

In a bit of awesome coincidence something else related to this trio happened this week you may not have been aware of. A new fansub group, Weeaboo Shogun has arrived on the scene with a magnificent show that has never been subbed before, Tokkei Winspector! They’ve already released the first 2 episodes off the series with links to download on their blog, I very much encourage you to check them out.

This is probably one of the more amazing coincidences that could have happened, and for me personally it’s a double whammy of a dream come true.

Also included in tonights’ official Tamashii reveals from Bandai is a brand new take on the classic 1964 Godzilla!

S.H. Monsterarts Godzilla 1964 Appearance Version is specifically based on his appearance in the 1964 classic Mothra VS Godzilla. A repaint of the original release this one is coated in a sandy brown paint that gives the effect of Godzilla rising through the dust in the film. Not only has this wonderful effect been executed flawlessly a new accessory is included to convince you to pick this monster up. A Showa Style atomic breath effect part!

A bit shockingly yet another new magazine scan has just revealed the existence of S.H. Figuarts Rider 3!

Rider 3 (or Sango) was recently featured in the Superhero Taisen GP team-up film as an antagonist to this years current rider, Kamen Rider Drive. Based on an easily overloked and short manga by Shotaro Ishinimori not only has Rider 3 cemented his place in the on screen media of the rider franchise, but now he’s also ensured his place in the toyline!

S.H. Figuarts Rider 3 will be an October retail release for 5184 yen!

Tune, Chaser!

Bandai has just thrown us all a curve ball and officially revealed a new accessory set for their upcoming S.H. Figuarts Machine Chaser!

The Busou or Armed Chaser Set includes components of Mashin Chaser trademark E-Circular multi-weapon. The necessary parts need to form the Tail Whipper, Wing Sniper, & Fang Spidey are all included as well as the Viral Cores needed to acces those power ups. But perhaps the best item is this set is an incredible pair of Wing Effect Parts for Chaser!

An awesome addition to what looks like a great upcoming figure, the S.H. Figuarts Busou Chaser set will be released in October as a Tamashii Web Exclusive for 3780 yen.

Tokunation is in Top Gear today! We’re proud to finally be able to share a full gallery and review of S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Drive Type Speed! As well as the included 1st Run Bonus Max Flare Set!

Kamen Rider Drive Type Speed is our titular heroes basic form, but the figure itself is far from that. While it may appear to have a lite accessory count, only 2 pairs of hands, this figure more than makes up for that with it’s versatility and interchangeability. Not only can the tires be removed to replicate the Tire Koukan gimmick, but so can the read outs on the Drive Driver, the flipped Shift Cars in the brace, and even the Shift Cars on Drive’s holster! The level of thought and engineering that’s gone into this figure is astounding, and the included 1st run Max Flare bonuses more than makes up for any lack of accessories. This figure is hands down worth your purchase.

We have a full gallery, totally over 100 images, after the jump as well as an in depth review detailing the wonderful aspects of S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Drive Type Speed. Just click “discuss on the TokuNation forums” at the bottom of this post to be taken to the complete thread. If you don’t get the point from our review then let me state it simply here, all you need is Drive.

No fear, no pain!

One of the most iconic Heisei Riders ever has finally gotten the premium treatment from Bandai of Japan. S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Kuuga! Having finally received a renewal figure in the Shinkouchu Seiho subline of high end releases! Our own Photo & Content contributor Ryan has been kind enough to share a full gallery and review of this release with tons of side-by-side comparisons to the original!

The short version is that Kuuga Renewal is hands down an improvement in every single way on the original, a figure which was release just near the beginning of the entire S.H. Figuarts toyline. 7 years in toy engineering improvements have put Kuuga Renewal light years beyond the original Kuuga Figuart.
