A handful of new images for Kamen Rider Zero-One have been released online, giving fans a few insights on the future adventures of this amazing new Kamen Rider series!

This is our first proper look at Zero-One’s strongest form to date- Kamen Rider Zero-One Metal Cluster Hopper! Using the Metal Cluster Hopper Progrise Key Zero-One activates a brand new form, with unparalleled strength. Unfortunately said strength comes with a price- in Metal Cluster Hopper form, Zero-One will attack anyone and anything that approaches.

And with a new form comes a new weapon, the Progrise Hopper Blade– which has been specially crafted to treat infected HumaGears.

Stay tuned to TokuNation for all Kamen Rider Zero-One reveals!

“Actually. I’m Ultraman.”

In a world where the giant of light Ultraman, left Earth years ago, the SSSP has found a new way to defend their world. Relying on individuals who possess the Ultraman Factor, and equipping them with suits of armor, the heroes of Earth fight back Kaiju! But in the case of Dan Moroboshi, he has no Ultraman Factor. Lucky for him, SSSP has developed a next generation Ultraman suit specifically for those who don’t possess these abilities. The Ultraman Suit Ver. 7 not bestows non-powered individuals with the ability to fight Kaiju, but it can be upgraded after repeated combat. Evolving and adapting to any situation, the Seven Suit is a force to be reckoned with!

The Ultraman Suit Ver 7 is a gorgeous entry in Tamashii Nations Ultraman line of S.H. Figuarts. Recreating the Seven Suit as it appears in the Netflix ULTRAMAN anime, this figure implements some dynamic and interesting new choices for articulation we don’t often see. That being said, it makes for a figure with tons of expressive personality. Armed with his Throwing Knife & Specium Sword and a sweeping fiery effect part for it, Dan Moroboshi is ready to defend the Earth!

Check out our full 60+ image gallery of the Seven Suit after the jump! Just click “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post to see the full gallery & review. Next time we visit a hero of the Showa era with Ultraman Taro!
