Tamashii.JP has just updated with a set of full official images for the recently revealed S.H. Figuarts Kabuto Extender! A companion piece to the 2014 release Shinkochu Seihou Kamen Rider Kabuto, the Kabuto Extender is due for release in April.

Included with this release are the typical Wheel Base most S.H. Figuarts bikes have as well as a unique Tamashii Stage Adapter allowing you to recreate various action shots. The solicitation text for this item obviously mentions how Kabuto himself is sold separately. Luckily a reissue of this figure is also scheduled for April.

S.H. Figuarts Kabuto Extender will retail for 5184 yen and be a general retail release! 

under Power Rangers

The fan-favorite season of Power Rangers Dino Charge has almost reached its conclusion – and it’s setting the stage for Power Rangers Dino Supercharge! In the latest episode, Wishing For a Hero, the Power Rangers are looking for a new hero to take on the powers of the Purple Energem! But when Fury discovers the Purple Energem has no host, he informs Sledge who releases a new villain on the scene – Heckle – who plans to use his human form to take the Purple Energem for himself!

But because things are never easy when you’re a Power Ranger, an escaped prisoner named Dark Star is also after the Purple Energem while using his wishing powers to cause the Rangers to make wishes that backfire in their faces in the most horrible of ways. Can our heroes stop all these villains from obtaining the Purple Energem? Or will they find the hero that they need to hold the power?

We’ve reached the final assortment in the 5″ figure line from Power Rangers Dino Charge before we start seeing the releases of the 5″ line of Power Rangers Dino Supercharge. In this final assortment are the rest of the villains that have been previewed since early 2015 by Bandai America.

Today we take a look at Spellbinder. While he LOOKS cool with beautiful sculpting, can the figure with limited articulation, paint applications, and no accessories succeed in putting a spell on us?

The clock continues to tick on the time left for the Talkin Toku Podcast. Please join Chris/Kickback, Jordan/Den-O, Tom/Sentai Tamashii, and special guest host Eric/Trekkieb47 for an episode that works more or less as a prelude to the final episode of Talkin Toku.

This brand new episode features commentary on the epic Triplet Meltdown from the actors that portrayed the character Trey of Triforia. We discuss how everything tokusatsu sucks right now (is anyone seriously watching and/or enjoying Ninninger?), comments regarding the actors chosen for the upcoming Power Rangers 2017 Movie, and take a look back at some of our favorite memories of our podcast over the last 2 years. And throughout the entire episode, zero fucks are given.

Stay tuned for the very end of the podcast for a preview of what’s in store for the final episode of Talkin Toku!

Well this looks like something we can all definitely be thankful for this year! Occasionally we share rare & interesting toku auctions we find on ebay but this is on an entirely different level.

The fine folks at Serious Toyz[/URL] have just opened up a special set of auctions aimed at collectors of vintage Japanese die cast toys & robots with a special emphasis on tokusatsu! Running the range of Metal Heroes, Super Sentai, Ultraman, Godzilla, & Kamen Rider this auction consists of a number of rare finds from a personal collection that was greatly cared for with many items having either never been opened or even used.

It isn’t often we see near mint & rare vintage releases like this for sale. So we wanted to share this with the community in the hopes that someone here may finally be able to fill a unique hole in their collection they’ve been after!

The master list of ALL Auctions are posted HERE
– Super Sentai Auctions[/URL]
– Kamen Rider Auctions[/URL]
– Metal Heroes Auctions[/URL]
– Ultraman Auctions[/URL]
– Miscellaneous Toku Heroes & other characters[/URL]

And here’s a link for new user registration as well as one for all the rules that accompany this set of auctions!

Happy bidding to everyone and thanks to Serious Toyz for making these various items available! I’ll be bidding on several myself!
