In case you missed it, we got our first look at Hasbro’s Beast-X Ultrazord earlier last week along with the Beast-X Megazord formations. Thanks to an exclusive from  Gizmodo.com. Not to be outdone, but we now have photos of the individual Zord modes too.

Hasbro released new photos of the triple changing Beast Racer Zord in bot, cheetah, and car modes along with the dual changing Beast Wheeler Zord in gorilla and truck modes arriving later in the fall. The triple changing Beast Racer Zord will set you back $30 dollars, while each of the dual changing Zord running 25 a piece, the Zords are expected to hit store shelves sometime in the fall.

In addition, a new offering from Playskool was revealed to be the Red Dragon Thunder Zord from season 2 of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. Playskool’s Red Dragon Thunder Zord comes in at an impressive 14 inches tall and will come with a Dragon Shield Red Ranger figure and will also run for $30.

A brief teaser video has been released for the recently-announced New World spinoff film starring fan-favorite Kamen Rider Grease!

At the moment, very few details about this new V-Cinema have been revealed. Actor Kohei Takeda will reprise his role as Kamen Rider Grease, while series writer Shogo Muto will be in charge of the script. Tokusatsu veteran Shojiro Nakazawa will direct the feature.

We do know that Kamen Rider Grease will be receiving a unique upgrade in this V-Cinema- thanks to a new device called the DX Grease Perfect Kingdom! This item combines Greases’ own Robot FullBottle with the powers of his fellow soldiers- the Hokuto Three Crows.

Grease New World is currently scheduled for release on November 11 2019! Stay tuned to TokuNation for any new details on this exciting project!

We need Ultrazord power NOW!

One of the biggest toy releases of the year for many Power Rangers and Super Sentai collectors will no doubt be the upcoming massive Soul of Chogokin King Brachion from Kyoryu Sentai Zyuranger. Or more commonly as he’s known by fans that grew up with Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: Titanus.

The big mama jama will be released later this month, and just in time for his release, we have our first in-hand look at this impressive mammoth of a toy thanks to some photos found by @Tokullector

Soul of Chogokin GX-85 King Brachion is still available for pre-order via site sponsor BigBadToyStore. If you missed out on the Megazord/Daizyujin, a restock will be happening March 2019.

“Wake up Cross-Z! Get great dragon!”

Unable to transform, Ryuga Banjou can only watch helplessly as Kazumi & Gentoku struggle against Kamen Rider Evol. But the battle before him can also push Ryuga beyond his limits. Stealing the Evol Dragon Bottle that was made from his own DNA, Banjou will unlock the power necessary to evolve even further. Reborn with even greater strength Ryuga has become Kamen Rider Great Cross-Z!

S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Great Cross-Z is a very basic but definitely well executed repaint of the original Kamen Rider Cross-Z release. A gorgeous figure now decked out in an Evol themed color scheme, Great Cross-Z is a perfect companion piece to your Build collection and fantastic stand-in if you missed out on the original Cross-Z Figuart. Luckily this release also comes pack with all the same accessories as the first, so you won’t miss out on any of the extra hands or that sweet Beat Crosser. As a huge fan of the show, I’m really pleased to have Great Cross-Z and it’s getting me even more pumped for the upcoming Cross-Z Magma!

We’ve attached the full 60+ image gallery to this post, but you can also check out the full review thread for Great Cross-Z by clicking “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post. We’ll be back soon with another Build gallery for S.H. Figuarts Hell Bros!

As Wonderfest 2019 gets underway we’re due for a few reveals in tokusatsu world this weekend. To kick things off we have 2 teased releases from SSSS.Gridman!

First up is Figma Rikka Takarada! The high school heroine of SSSS.Gridman and member of the Gridman Alliance is the first of the human characters to get an official product image so far. When she was teased back in November alongside series antagonist Akane Shinjo, we didn’t have a clear indication of when we’d see official prototype images. GSC has finally provided this first look via WonFest and we should be able to expect some release information for Rikka in the near future as well.

Next up is a Soft Vinyl Ghoulgilas! This Kaiju was originally teased for release back in late December with just a silhouette. Now we have our first test shot image of the figure announcing plans to roll it out for release. In case you’ve forgotten, this cyborg like dragon monster faced off against Gridman in the first episode of the series. Presumably this vinyl will be in scale with the Gridman & Grid Knight Figma’s as well. Release details should come at a later date.

We’ll be sure to keep you up to date as more WonFest 2019 news rolls in!

After some early listings, we now have our first images from the second quarter of Kishiryu Sentai RyuSoulger!

This is our first look at the 43rd Super Sentai’s SIXTH Ranger, Ryusoul Gold! This RyuSoulger has a gold base costume but with navy blue highlights instead of the silver seen on the core five. His personal Kishiryu is a Mosasaurus.

Ryusoul Gold’s unique henshin device is the Mosa Changer– a gun that is powered by the Ryusouls. His signature weapon is known as the Mosa Blade which can combine with the Changer for more powerful attacks.

But Gold isn’t the only newcomer in these scans! A new Kishiryu has been revealed- DimeVolcano! This Dimetrodon based Mecha is able to combine with KishiRyuOh and increase its firepower. DimeVolcano also brings a unique Ryusoul- the MeraMera Cho RyuSoul– that gives the Ryusoulgers special upgrade armor.

Definitely some exciting things on the horizon for the 43rd Super Sentai Series! Stay tuned to TokuNation for all Kishiryu Sentai RyuSoulger reveals!
