This time of the month always brings a plethora of magazine scans as well as new information about all your favorite tokus. By far the communities’ most favored right now is Kamen Rider Gaim. And Toei is certainly showing Gaim plenty of love revealing things like Kachidoki, Fresh Orange, & Rider 1 Arms.

Well it looks like based on an image teased today we’ll be seeing an upgrade for everybody’s favorite banana themed rider, Kamen Rider Baron, in the near future too! What we have teased here is Baron in silhouette using what appears to be Kamen Rider Dukes’ Lemon Energy Arms! Based on this image could Baron possibly be receiving his own Genesis Driver? Or a Genesis Core like Gaim? Will it be a full on Energy Form or a Jinba style arms like Gaim? Time will tell!

Speaking of Gaim, Jinba Arms allows him access to any of the four Energy Rider powers based on which of their locks he’s currently using. Lemon is his first and recent images revealed Peach & Cherry. This teaser image also shows one of them, most likely Jinba Melon, which has yet to be seen. We’ll keep you posted as more info becomes available.

After some initial teasing during the Toq6 magazine scans, we now have a close look at ToQGer’s special movie form used in “Hesei VS Showa: Featuring Super Sentai!”

The combinations’ official name is “ToQOh Kyoryuzin, Featuring Den-Liner!” This Mecha will be piloted through a joint effort of Kyoryu Red, Den-O Sword Form and the ToQGers!

As of this writing the Go-Buster Ace Ressha also seen in toy scans does not appear to contribute to this movie combination. Perhaps the G0-Busters have once again been left out in the cold. We will find out full details in the “Hesei VS Showa: Featuring Super Sentai” Movie War, premiering March 29!

You may recall a few months back, that a special Fresh Orange Lock Seed was offered as a magazine pack in bonus. As it turns out, this Fresh Orange lock will indeed allow Kamen Rider Gaim to use a new Fresh Orange Arms!

Much like previous Hyper Battle exclusive forms it most likely will not appear in the main show proper. Prime examples of this trend being Gattack Hyper, Fourze RocketDrill States, Wizard Falco Mantle, or OOO TakaToraGaru.

This image also teases the other arms changes from the special:

Ryugen: Pine Arms, Banana Arms, Melons Arms

Kanpai Senshi After V is a new Sentai parody show about what a Super Sentai team might do after a long hard day’s work of fighting evil. The show focuses on a team called Golden Warriors Treasure V, during the day they fight off the forces of evil but at night they crash at a local bar and bicker with one another.

The series stars Toku alumni Murai Ryota(Alternate Kuuga from Kamen Rider Decade) as the Red of the team in addition to Kato Kazuki(Kamen Rider Drake and The NEXT V3) as the blue ranger.

While faces new to our fandom include actress Kikkawa Yu playing the role of Pink, Buffalo Goro A as Green, and Comedian Tobinaga Tsubasa in the role of Green.

In a final bit of viral marketing for the upcoming Godzilla 2014 Film Godzillamovie.com has announced that the 2nd trailer for the film will be released tomorrow morning at 10AM (pacific time)! They’ve also posted two clips of audio from the film to hype fans up for the trailer reveal.

In one clip we can hear Bryan Cranston’s character describing in a frantic way what can only be his encounter with Godzilla. To listen to the audio follow THIS LINK. Dialogue quoted below:

“You’re not fooling anybody when you say that what happened was a natural disaster. You’re lying, you’re hiding something out there! It was not an Earthquake. It wasn’t a Typhoon. This is what caused everything in the first place. Don’t you see that?! It is going to send us back to the stone age! You have no idea what’s coming!”

The second clip was posted to the movies official youtube page and features the iconic roar of Godzilla himself.
