Hot on the reveal and announcement of the S.H. Figuarts Shinkocchou Seihou Kamen Rider Gaim and Kamen Rider Baron news from yeseterday, Tamashii Nations has already announced another entry into the Kamen Rider Gaim era of Shinkocchou Seihou – the Ichigo and Pine Arms Change Set!

With Shinkocchou Seihou, you can swap out the armor on your Kamen Rider Gaim figure!  So rather than release a whole new figure with the armor, this looks to just be an armor set.  The designer of this has stated they will also work on the S.H. Figuarts Shinkocchou Seihou Kamen Rider Baron figure as well.

On an unrelated side note – we are fast approaching the 100th release for the S.H. Figuarts Shinkocchou Seihou series.

In celebration of the 10th anniversary of Kamen Rider Gaim, Bandai and Tamashii Nations have selected the next entries in their Shinkocchou Seihou series of S.H. Figuarts and it is none other than the two main characters of Kamen Rider Gaim!

Featuring all new molds with pinless joints, the Shinkocchou Seihou series of S.H. Figuarts allows your favorite characters to reach new levels of realism and posability like never before!  Unique to this release (but similar features in previous Shinkocchou Seihou releases as well as the Kamen Rider Geats series of S.H. Figuarts) is the ability for the figures to swap their armor, similar to the gimmick of Kamen Rider Gaim which was “Arms Change”, where each character would receive the armor of the Lock Seed they used on their Sengoku Driver.

Official listings have yet to go up as of the time of this posting, but Kamen Rider Gaim looks to be 9900 yen and Kamen Rider Baron looks to be 11,000 yen with an August 2024 pending release.

Stay tuned for more official details and pre-order links which should go up within soon.

The wins for Godzilla Minus One continue to roll in.  On Sunday night, director Takashi Yamazaki celebrated as Godzilla Minus One won the Oscar for Best Visual Effects.  Not only was this the first Oscar win for the Godzilla franchise in its 70 year history, it was also its first Oscar nomination.  But just to add to the fun – Takashi Yamazaki not only served as the film’s director, but also as the supervisor for the film’s visual effects.  He becomes just the second director ever to win the Oscar for Best Visual Effects, joining only the legendary Stanley Kubrick (1969’s “2001: A Space Odyssey”).

Congratulations to Toho Studios, Takashi Yamazaki, and everyone behind the majesty of the Godzilla franchise on this historic win.

Tonight was Toei’s annual Super Sentai press conference- introducing the world to the 48th Super Sentai team, the Bakuage Sentai Boonboomger!

The initial Boonboomger team consists of:

*BunRed/Taiya Hando portrayed by Haruhi Iuchi– a young man with a burning heart and a passion for cars; he has a hobby of rebuilding and customizing his special vehicle.

*BunBlue/Ishiro Meita played by Yuki Hayama is the teams’ technical expert with a wide array of knowledge who always acts in a professional manner.

*BunPink/Mirai Shifuto portrayed by Suzuki Miu– she is described as a bright and intelligent woman with a tendency to drive off anywhere she finds interesting.

At least two more members will join as the series goes on:

*BunBlack/Jou Akuse played by Saito Ryu– a rookie cop with a serious nature and a history of “comedic” incidents.

*BunOrange/Gemba Bureki portrayed by Satoru Soma described as a gentle but elusive man able to obtain anything he wants from others.

The lives of the Boonboomgers are changed forever thanks to the intervention of Boondorio Boonderas– a strange car shaped alien who crash-landed on Earth and now lives in BunRed’s garage supplying the team with weapons and gear. In combat, Boondorio becomes the main body of Boonboomger Robo. The character will be voiced by veteran VA Rica Matsumoto– who will also perform the ending theme song for the series.

The Boonboomgers will fight against the Space Mafia Hishiriyan! Three Generals from the group were introduced-

*Decotrade (voiced by Junichi Suwabe) is the aggressive troublesome warrior who dreams of advancing in the organization.

*Itasha (voiced by Nana Mizuki is another ambitious soldier.

*Yaiyai Yarker (voiced by Sumire Morohoshi may be the strangest member of the Generals, lacking a humanoid frame & instead appearing as a vehicular body.

Bakuage Sentai BoonBoomger begins on March 3 2024! Stay tuned to Tokunation for further updates on this new chapter in Super Sentai history!
