Premium Bandai has announced a very unusual new exclusive set: five diecast Denji Rings– the henshin device used in the 1980 Super Sentai Series Denshi Sentai Denziman!

For those unfamiliar with the story, Denziman is the tale of 5 descendants of the legendary Denzi Clan granted possession of the Denji Rings so they would be strong enough to repel the invading alien Vader Clan.

This set of five rings will be released in January 2018 for the relatively reasonable price of 5400 Yen before shipping & fees.

Max Factory has a very left field announcement, with the recent reveal of a Figma Kuroko currently in the works.

Fans of Samurai Sentai Shinkenger might recognize this particular character as the servants working for the Shiba Clan, they help set the stage for the Shinkenger’s grand entrance and these look to stand perfectly with Bandai’s S.H.Figuarts Shinkenger releases.

However, don’t get your hopes up thinking that Max Factory will be picking up Sentai characters for release: while Kurokos are featured quite prominently in Shinkenger, they are in fact part of Japanese culture. Kurokos are stagehands in Japanese theatre, they dress in black and work behind the scenes to manipulate props and scenery akin to their role in the show. They are not exclusively a Shinkenger thing, so  DO NOT expect Max Factory or Goodsmile to release Super Sentai figures. 

None the less, the Figma Kuroko looks to be a good representation of the character, and will see a March 2018 release, retailing for 4,980 yen.

Fun fact – Super Sentai and Dragon Ball Super share the same production company known as Toei. Some readers may remember the original Super Sentai homage in Dragon Ball Z – namely the Ginyu Force. But some 30 years later a new homage to Super Sentai exists in the world (or universe) of Dragon Ball Super – the Pride Troopers!

In the latest arch of Dragon Ball Super there is a giant tournament between 10 different universes. From one universe comes a group of warriors who call themselves the Pride Troopers and they will remind you heavily of the Ginyu Force homage as each fighter takes a pose ending with a group shot and a colorful explosion behind them.

Check out the attached image for what we mean. And check out Dragon Ball Super, airing every Saturday, to catch up on what has become one of the hottest animes of 2017!

“Fire All Core. Drive, Type Miracle!”

In an attempt to revive his fallen friend, Gou Shijima managed to do the impossible& revive one of the most powerful Roidmudes ever, Heart! Simultaneously Gou managed to merge the Cores of Medic & Brain into Heart’s new body. Uniting their hearts and Cores together these 3 Roidmudes became the Kamen Rider to surpass even Drive. Debuting in the Heart/Mach v-Cinema, and finally available in figure form, it’s S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Heart Type Miracle!

Kamen Rider Heart as you’ll undoubtedly notice, is heavily based on Drive’s own Type Tridoron form. Much like the suit in the movie, this figure reuses a majority of Tridoron’s parts. But the new components incorporated into the body are derived from Heart’s original Roidmude form. It’s an odd fusion, but one that somehow works very well. While this is a pretty sparse release, Heart Type Miracle still has plenty of charm to it. Now if we could just get the mismatched Type Speed/Wild/Technic from Bandai, then all of Hearts’ forms would be represented in this line.

We’ve attached a selection of images to this post, but you can view the complete 60+ image gallery after the jump. Just click “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post to be taken to the full review and gallery. Next time we’ll be back with another new gallery from Space Sheriff Gavan!

RIDER….HENSHIN! 

In case you missed it, Bandai will be releasing S.H.Figuarts Takeshi Hongo in December, since the announcement, Bandai’s product page’s been updated with new info including price and a brand new accessory.

Like Retsu, S.H.Figuarts Takeshi Hongo will include an effect piece representing the moment where he transforms into Kamen Rider 1. In addition, Bandai’s finally announced the price: he’ll retail for 6,264 yen.

under Godzilla

While the S.H. MonsterArts line seems to have slowed down considerably over the past few years, one thing they’ve remained pretty consistent on is keeping up with variants of Godzilla himself. This trend continues in December with the release of S.H. MonsterArts Godzilla 2017, based on the King of Monsters’ appearance in the forthcoming Godzilla: Monster Planet anime from Toho Animation and Polygon Pictures. This version is listed as an “Initial production limited edition”.

Despite preorders set to go up on August 1st Bandai have not yet done a full reveal of the figure, suggesting that a full look at this Godzilla design may still be being kept under wraps for the time being. Nevertheless, the figure will be released in December and retail for 9936 yen. No accessories are listed, but the figure will come with some sort of special card.

The very first batch of magazine scans for the 19th Heisei Era Rider Series- Kamen Rider Build has been posted online!

We now have some excellent detailed shots of Build using his Build Driver and Full Bottles to fight-along with his signature weapon the DrillCrusher and motorcycle, the Machine Builder.

When FullBottles are activated in the Driver, the resulting form is dubbed BEST MATCH signifying that Bottles have combined properly.

*Build’s first form, RabbitTank– also referred to as The Moonsault of Steel will be his default form, capable of a powerful Rider Kick attack named Vortech Finish!

*Build’s second form, GorillaMond -the Sparkling Destroyer– is also shown in detail.

Finally, we have confirmation that Kamen Rider Build will fight alongside Kamen Rider Ex-Aid in the TRUE ENDING special movie, AND Build will make a special cameo appearance in the final episode of Ex-Aid.

Kamen Rider Build will officially begin on September 3 2017! Stay tuned to TokuNation between now & then as we keep you up to date on this exciting new Rider Series!
