We have sadly lost an important figure from Kamen Rider history.
Legendary composer Shunsuke Kikuchi who handled the very first Kamen Rider theme song- Let’s Go! Rider Kick– and many other Rider themes throughout the Showa Era has passed away at 89 years old.
Outside the tokusatsu world, Kinkuchi was a prolific artist- working on several anime themes including DragonBall, Doraemon, Getter Robo and countless others.
Our thoughts are with Shunsuke Kikuchis’ friends and family in this difficult time.

Some new images for the next wave of Kikai Sentai Zenkaiger toys have surfaced online! This is our first look at the DX Mecha belonging to the Zenkaigers’ Sixth Ranger, TwoKaiser!
TwoKaisers’ main Mecha is the battleship Croco DaiOh! This is a golden battleship modeled after a crocodile. Croco DaiOh is capable of several configurations.
To aid in combat, TwoKaiser summons a pair of miniature robots- know as TwoKai Rikky (who embodies the spirit of Chouriki Sentai OhRanger) and TwoKai Cuttaner (which channels the powers of Samurai Sentai Shinkenger.)
Both Ricky & Cuttanner can combine with Croco DaiOh to create the Mecha Combo TwoKaiOh! This Mecha has multiple configurations based on which robo is used- the primary forms are TwoKaiOh Rikky and TwoKaiOh Cuttaner!
