The first teaser for the upcoming annual Super Sentai/Kamen Rider summer movie double bill is now online!
While there’s not much new footage in this preview, it does offer a glimpse at the special attendee bonus gifts: Anyone attending the screenings in Japan will receive a special new DX Ressha and DX Lock Seed (exact details for both are not yet confirmed).
The ToQGer and Gaim Summer Movies premiere in theaters July 19!
With the Showa VS Heisei movie currently in theaters in Japan, it’s the perfect time to take a look at the tie in toy: The DX Kamen Rider Taisen Lock Seed set!
Both Seeds are more or less the same; they’re capable of cycling through the names of each Rider series. The showa set goes from Ichigo to J before repeating the cycle while the Heisei set one from Kuuga to Gaim.
k2eizo of youtube provides the video of the set, you can watch it below:
Shoutouts to board member PkmnMstr for giving us the heads up!
You thought we forgot about you? Let’s Watch Wednesdays is back with another movie! This time it’s a double whammy though, featuring two sentai! This is Magiranger VS Dekaranger! Please take note, if you haven’t watched Tokusou Sentai Dekaranger, then this movie will contain some spoilers for the end of that particular series. Watch at your own risk!
The Magirangers celebrate a family holiday with an expensive meal. But a certain Dekaranger happens to be around when that meal is interrupted by an Alienizer! As two sentai meet for the first time, Deka Red returns to Earth with a new power, the Fire Squad Battlizer! Two 6th heroes meet, Tetsu & Hikaru will have their own little adventure. It’s Deka Master VS Wolzard the ultimate test of swords! And Legend Mode & Battlizer against all odds, and evil! This one has it all. To stop Agent X from inheriting the legacy of Abrer, 13 heroes will rise up!

The devil’s glacier, Evil Ice, will freeze the world for Infershia! A secret Houka wasn’t meant to know, and her memory will be wiped! And to stop the ice, the Magirangers will seek the help of the saint who gave their mother power, Snowgel! With Snowgel’s blessing their legend will finally be born. A new power has come, Legend Mode! And with the power of Legend Mode an even greater giant than Magi King will awaken, Magi Legend! But what cost will this new power place on our 5 heroes?
And as always be sure to click “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post to join in our magical discussion! And remember that next week we interrupt your regularly scheduled magical programming for Magiranger VS Dekaranger!
As you know by now, this weeks regular Super Hero Time programming is being replaced by a very special crossover. This hour long special is Kamen Rider Gaim VS Ressha Sentai ToQger!
Serving as a prelude to the Heisei VS Showa Featuring Super Sentai film, this special will mark only the second time ever that a currently running Rider & Sentai will share a storyline. The first being Kamen Rider Decade & Samurai Sentai Shinkenger. This special is labelled as Episode SP for both series and chronologically should take place between Gaim episodes 26 & 27 and ToQger 6 & 7.
The episode itself airs shortly in Japan and subs will of course be up later in the week from our favorite groups. For now click “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post to be taken to our stickied discussion thread/poll for this special in the News and Rumors section.
This is our first full-length trailer for the revival of iconic tokusatsu hero “Kikaider.” The trailer features our best look to date at the revised suit and combat tactics of this legendary hero, along with some new details about the supporting cast in this revival project.
Kikaider returns to theaters on May 24 2014!
Toei has opened an official page for the annual tokusatsu summer movie double bill!
Details are sparse at the moment but the Gaim/ToQGer Roadshow is scheduled for July 19 meaning films should be in theaters by the end of July. This is a step up from previous years (usually the Super Sentai & Kamen Rider films have been released in mid to late August).
Stay tuned to TokuNation for more details on these fresh and colorful summer antics!
While Gaim undoubtedly takes center stage in this round of magazine scans, ToQGer does have one impressive reveal-
This is our first glimpse at their second Mecha, DiseslOh! Formed through a combination of Car Carrier, Tank & Diesel Resshas, the DieselOh is widely believed to be the personal Mecha of ToQ6. Only time will tell for sure; the Diesel Ressha should be introduced in the series shortly before its DX toy release at the end of April.
Stay tuned to TokuNation as we keep you up to date on all train arrivals & departures!
