Enterbay announced that a high end 1/4th scale Kamen Rider Ichigo figure was in the works back in 2011 but have remained silent on the project ever since the reveal.
Almost 2 years after it’s announcement, and we’ve finally been given a release date for this piece. Enterbay’s Kamen Rider Ichigo will see a release sometime in late April 2013. The new photos posted by Enterbay shows that the figure will indeed have some kind of light up gimmick in his eyes. Although a price has not been announced as of this posting, you can expect the final price tag to be quite hefty.

The mysterious adventures of Fuuto City are set for re-release in perfect high-definition!
The first boxset of W’s re-release will be out in mid-July, containing 16 episodes all for the low, low price of 20,700 Yen. Details on the rest of the series are not yet available, so stay tuned for more!
The WAP Infinity Style figure has been revealed through catalogue scans giving us another look at Wizard’s final form. The figure will retail for 2940 yen with a currently unknown release date
After several months of mentioning this new character in magazine scans we finally have our first image of Green Hippopotamus! Green Hippopotamus is of course the final member of Dobutsu Sentai Gobusters from the upcoming Tokumei Sentai Go-Busters V-Cinema! We see him here with fellow new character Black Puma and their universes’ Pink Buster (Rika Sakurada). Remember the Dobutsu Sentai is an alternate world version of the Go-Busters that based themselves on animals.
An interesting thing to note is that the actor playing Green Hippopotamus is actually none of other than Tatsuhisa Suzuki. Who also happens to be the voice actor for buddyorid Usada Lettuce!

Now this is certainly a strange and interesting piece. World Box Studios revealed their next entry in the Lakor Baby line and it’s none other then Ultraman.
Even more interesting is that the figure will indeed include a Kaiju to fight…and not just any Kaiju but the King himself: a little baby Godzilla as an accessory/companion piece.
Standing at 150 mm, other accessories included with this figure are: two swappable hands, two ladles, a bracelet, energy effect parts, a building, and an in scale human figure.
Released with the tag line “Take Happiness Home” however, with the release date not officially revealed as of this posting, it is currently unknown when you can take this bundle of happiness home…or for how much.

This Saturday April 6th will see the return of Hikonin Sentai Akibaranger for our viewing pleasure! To prepare us for this some new magazine scans are making the rounds featuring the various characters of the new season including Malsheena in her new powered up form, new villian General Two, and of coursethe Akibarangers themselves and their new looks!
We also have looks at the toy merchandise that will be released under the Akibaranger banner. New S.H.Figuarts for each of the Akibarangers & Delu-Knight included. And just as suspected the Japanese releases of S.H.Figuarts Tyranno Ranger and S.H. Figuarts Dragon Ranger will indeed be tied to Akibaranger! Let speculation run wild but this more than likely means we’ll be seeing some more Akibaranger themed accessories with these characters like Red Hawk and others from Season 1!

Earlier this year, we posted a picture featuring Gavan Type-G standing amongst his fellow Metal Heroes- Janperson, Jiraiya, Jiban, SyncRedder, B-Fighter’s Blue Beet and Kabuto. Well, new scans shown reveal that they may not be the actual Metal Heroes after all…but the Gokaigers transformed into them using the Metal Hero Ranger Keys!
Does this mean we may get another Movie Ranger Key release like the OOO Key Set during the run of Super Hero Taisen last year? Only time will tell!
