“You fools could never hope to defeat me. Do you know why?
Because I was born to be king!”

50 years from now, there are no Kamen Riders. The world is ruled by one all-powerful overlord of time & space, Ohma Zi-O! Taking as his own the power of the 20 Heisei Riders, Sougo Tokiwa became king. But in another time Kamen Rider Zi-O was a hero. And even though that young Sougo is still on the path to becoming Ohma, can he change fate? Destined to have the powers of the demon king, and with the fate of all worlds in the balance, will Sougo destroy time itself? Or will he choose to rebuild everything? The day of Ohma is here!

S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Ohma Zi-O is another gorgeous addition to the Zi-O subline. While primarily a retread of the Zi-O/Geiz mold, for this outing the body is decked out in opulent gold paint and lavish sculpted details. This is a stunning piece to add to your Zi-O collection, even if the accessory count is rather low. Ohma is armed with 3 sets of hands as well as the Ryuki, Kiva, & Kuuga Ridewatches. The overlord of your collection arrives in this gallery!

Clocking in at 75 images, you can view our full gallery of Ohma Zi-O after the jump. Just click “Discuss on the TokuNation” Forums at the bottom of this post to be taken to our full review thread. Next time we’ll be back to action so to speak, with another overlord from the future; Lord Drakkon!

As revealed by @ForTheGridFans on twitter, the characters of the Street Fighter universe are making their return to Power Rangers Legacy Wars!

You my recall that in their last collaboration that the characters Ryu, Chun-Li, and Akuma made their way to the Power Rangers universe. And that Ryu in particular was gifted the abilities of a Power Ranger, suiting up as the Ryu Ranger! With the trio’s return to the popular Power Rangers fighting game, Ryu won’t be the only one with the power protecting him either. This go around Chun-Li will also don a suit a the Blazing Phoenix Ranger!

While nWay, the company behind Legacy Wars & Battle For The Grid, has yet to officially make this announcement, this is another pretty  astounding crossover for the Power Rangers. When the official announcement comes, most definitely accompanied by a video of Chun-Li in action, we’ll be sure to continue our reporting.

There’s been some (alot) of debate and speculation in recent weeks regarding the exact Makeup of Hasbro’s Power Rangers Lightning Collection Wave 4. Multiple site listings, statements from Hasbro as well as it’s reps at cons, and leaked information have led to some degree of confusion about what to expect from the wave.

The biggest mystery has been wether or not this would indeed be a 4 figure wave as previous leaks had shown. Thankfully we now know for certain, because of confirmation from the Official Power Rangers Twitter that there will indeed be a 4th figure. And given previous store listings that have confirmed the last 2 waves, it’s all but certain this figure will be the Mighty Morphin Yellow Ranger. Though which Yellow Ranger is currently up for speculation.

This tweet also provided new official images of the 3 previously revealed figures of wave 4; Beast Morphers Blaze, Zeo Ranger III Blue, and the SPD Red Ranger. The significance here is that these images fully breakdown the accessories for each figure. And it’s looking like so far Blaze will be the clear winner in that department. We are expecting the 4th and fina figure of this wave to be revealed very soon. Keep up with all of the  latest Lightning Collection updates in our ongoing discussion thread, linked below.

“This isn’t what I expected when I woke up this morning.”

A hero by chance, Devon Daniels steps up to defend the Morphin Grid from Evox! Bonded with cheetah DNA and imbued with Morph-X energy, a Red Ranger with beast morphin might rises! The Lightning Collection from Hasbro has continued to move along at a pretty brisk pace, and now we’re taking some time to break down one of the most recent release with Wave 2’s very own Beast Morphers Red Ranger! 

The Beast Morphers Red Ranger is another welcome addition to this line, not only for Power Rangers Beast Morphers fans, but also for those long time fans of Tokumei Sentai Go-Busters. In a line full of winners, this Red Ranger pulls double duty not only being a great toy, but honestly a really serviceable replacement for aging S.H. Figuarts Red Busters as well. Armed with the Cheetah Beast Blaster & Beast-X Saber (and an effect part to match), the Beast Morphers Red Ranger will and some power and style to any collection.

We’ve put together a full 80 image gallery of the Beast Morphers Red Ranger that you can see after the jump along with out review. Just click “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post to head to our discussion thread. Next time, the Overlord of Time & Space arrives, Oma Zi-Oh!
