“NEW OMEGA”

We took a short break but now we’re back with out first brand new gallery of 2018! At both the beginning and end of last year, we really opened our Amazons with 6 galleries from the hit series. Alpha, Omega, Jungraider, Sigma, Mole Amazon, & Neo. To kick this year off we’ve decided to start with a gallery of the Amazon Japan exclusive edition of S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Amazon New Omega!

New Omega is Haruka Mizusawa’s upgrade from the 2nd season of Amazons, and the first true upgrade for any of the riders in the show. Using the new Neo Amazons Driver, Haruka’s traditional Omega suit gets retrofitted with cybernetic parts that give him a wild and unfinished look that’s really striking. This Amazon JP edition of the figure includes all the of the standard accessories like the Neo Blade arm, an Amazons Syringe, and two sets of hands, but also comes with the exclusive Green Tamashii Flame Effects!

We’ve attached the full 50+ image gallery of Amazon New Omega to this post, but you can also check out our full review of the figure after the jump. Just click “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post to be taken to the full thread. We’ll be back later this week with a full gallery & review of S.H. Figuarts Takeshi Hongo!

Kamen Rider Heisei Generations has just released in theatres across Japan, and viewers who stayed until the end were treated with the announcement that Spring 2018 will see the release of a Kamen Rider Amazons movie!

Tentatively titled Kamen Rider Amazons: Final Version, very little is known about the movie but many are speculating it to mark the end of the Amazons story which has currently run through two season on Amazon Prime.

Are you excited to enter the Armour Zone one more time? Stay tuned to Tokunation for more information on the film as it comes!

“We’re teammates now.”

It’s another new gallery for Toku Toy Box at TokuNation and we’re revisiting the grim world of Kamen Rider Amazons! Before Alpha & Omega, Mamoru the Mole Amazon, was a member of the Nozoma Peston Service. Rag tag mercenary Amazon hunters. Often seen eating a hamburger the gentle & powerful Mamoru would have done anything to protect these friends. And if you weren’t aware, Mole Amazon is actually based on the Showa character Mole Beastman from the original Kamen Rider Amazon TV series. Mole Beastman was actually the very first Kaijin to befriend a Kamen Rider, and became a strong ally to Amazon. So it’s no wonder that a similar bond was forged between Mamoru & Haruka for a time.

As the first of the proper non-rider Amazons to receive a figure, we dive in and take a look at S.H. Figuarts Mole Amazon! The Mole Amazon is a pretty wild design from the ground up. Angular, intricate, well painted, monstrous. It’s such an interesting update to an otherwise very odd character design. While Mole isn’t a Kamen Rider per se, it’s unquestionable that he fits right in with the other misfits and miscreants of the series. This figuart of Mamoru includes a an extra pair of hands, his open feeding mouth, a final blow effect part to defeat Amazon Sigma, and of course his Hamburger! I wasn’t entirely sure what to expect of this Tamashii Web Exclusive but I’m really happy to say that I love it. Here’s hoping we see his season 2 Evolved Form down the road as well!

We’ve attached the full 55 image gallery to this post but you can also read an in depth review of S.H. Figuarts Mole Amazon by clicking “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post. Next time we’ll be back with the long awaited gallery of god himself Kuroto Dan, with S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider GenM Zombie Gamer Level X!

“I will live until the last moment!!” 

A tormented soul joins us today for Toku Toy Box. It took Chihiro most of his life to discover what he truly was, an Amazon. Son of Jin Takayam, Amazon Alpha, the Point of Origin for a new generation of Amazons, a threat to all of humanity. Ultimately, Chihiro came to blows with his long lost father Jin as well as Amazon Omega Haruka Mizusawa. He never got to live the peaceful life he wanted to, or be the hero he thought he wanted to be. He at least went out a fighter standing his ground against the odds. Today we take a look at the first figuart based on this chaotic & torn character, S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Amazon Neo (Amazon JP Edition)!

Amazon Neo is the first release we’ve seen from Amazons Season 2, soon to be followed by New Omega. But this new body type introduced with Neo has already won me over. I was initially skeptical, but this figure has turned out to be possibly my favorite Amazon thus far. Sharp paint apps and strong details help bring this design to life. Not to mention as an Amazon Japan Exclusive edition, we also get a sweet set of Tamashii Flame Effects in addition to the included hands, Amazon Neo Blade, & Amazon Injector accessory.

We’ve attached the full 60+ image gallery to this post but you can also read through our comprehensive review of Kamen Rider Amazon Neo by clicking “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post. Toku Toy Box will pick up next time with another gallery from Kamen Rider Amazons with S.H. Figuarts Mole Amazon!

In a double whammy surprise reveal @_Erasu on twitter has just dropped a couple bombshells on two sought after figures from two recent rider shows. First up we have the reveal S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Brave Legacy Gamer Level 100! Yet another instance of Bandai skipping past some forms from Ex-Aid in favor of more recent or popular ones, but I doubt we’ll see too many complaining about this one. Second, we have the the long awaited S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Amazon Blind Alpha. The primary differences between this release and the original of course include the new blind head, as well as an included Amazon heart for Jin to chow down on!

Order pages with official release info have yet to go up for either of these new releases, but we know both will be Tamashii Web Exclusives. Tonight order pages will officially go live and we’ll be sure to update this article with all the pertinent information you need to make arrangements with your favorite middleman service!

“I’ll have you beaten in five moves.”

Before Dangerous Zombie there was another rider of the undead. A dark science experiment using human flesh & Amazon cells, Jun Maehara returned from the dead as a cold killing machine. Finally making his figuarts debut, the third & most dangerous Amazon rider arrives. S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Amazon Sigma!

Amazon Sigma is the first use of the new Wild/Origin body. Surely a hint that Amazon Omega Origin will be released sometime in the future? In any case, this is a great new mold. Some sharp mold details and exquisite paint apps also go a long way to giving this menacing character the proper presence and personality he deserves. Included with Sigma are 3 sets of extra hands ass well as a set of the popular Tamashii Flame Effects in purple.

We’ve attached the full 60+ image gallery to this post but you can also check out a comprehensive review in the full gallery thread by clicking “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post. We’ll be back next week with a throwback gallery of an older release from Kamen Rider Kabuto!

The Tamashii Nations Akiba Showroom has updated it’s displays once again with a slew of new releases and at least one yet to be confirmed:

  • S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Amazon Neo, slated for October release for 5500 yen.
  • S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Amazon New Omega, will also be out in October and is priced at 5500 yen. Both Amazons will be retail releases.
  • S.H. Figuarts Retsu Ichijouji, the original Space Sheriff, Gavan has been lurking around as a prototype since last year but has now been confirmed for a Tamashii Web Exclusive release in November for 6264 yen!
  • S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Ex-Aid Maximum Mighty Level 99. Though this figure has yet to be confirmed with a release date or price, it’s inclusion at the showroom is a very good indicator of it’s future.

It was only a matter of time before these Amazons made their debut. After the critical & commercial success of the Amazon Prime series Kamen Rider Amazons it was a no-brainer to see the (so far) only new riders/forms from season 2 get the figure treatment.

S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Amazon Neo is currently set for release in October 2017 at a price point of 5940 yen. The lone scan available does not currently suggest this is a webshop item so he may very well be a normal retail release as Amazon Alpha & Omega were previously. However there IS an advertised Amazon Neo Amazon JP Edition, much like the previous riders. This version will not come with color coded flames, but seeming re-releases of standard red tamashii flame effects. This version will also be released in October at the higher price point of 7020 yen.

S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Amazon New Omega likewise seems to be a retail release, just in November, similarly priced at 5940 yen. And just as with Neo, New Omega will also get the Amazon JP Edition treatment, assumably with yet more flame effects. This version will be release in November as well for 7020 yen.

“AMAZON.”

We have officially entered the Armor Zone people! This marks our 3rd full gallery from the fantastic Amazon Japan series Kamen Rider Amazons. This week saw confirmation of yet another figure from the show with the Mole Amazon, and Season 2 is well under way with an exciting 2nd episode. So at long last we’re going to take a look at the other sometimes heroic but often savage rider from season 1 with S.H. Figuarts Kamen Amazon Alpha (Amazon JP Edition)!

Amazon Alpha (Jin Takayama) was definitely not what you’d call a traditional hero. By the end of season 1 he resembled more of a villain than anything thanks to his obsession with the Amazons. But that doesn’t detract from his magnificent design, or this figures. This release of Alpha, like the Omega we recently looked at, was an Amazon JP release that included some bonus flame effect parts. But even without those, Alpha is a fearsome figure that brings the character’s savage personality to life in your collection.

We’ve attached a number of images to this post, but you can view 70+ images in our full gallery by clicking “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post. We’ll be switching gears after this and going back to another personal favorite series of mine, with a gallery from Kamen Rider Drive!

Recently we took a look at one of the leads of the excellent Amazon Japan web series Kamen Rider Amazons with S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Amazon Omega. Well we’re mixing things up a bit today, before we take a look at the series other lead rider, Amazon Alpha, we’re going to take a look at Omega’s Rider Machine, the S.H. Figuarts Jungraider!

Believe it or not, the Jungraider should be familiar to many people whether they’ve seen Amazons or not. And that’s because this bike is part of Bandai’s long tradition of recycled old suits and props. In fact the Jungraider was made from Kamen Rider Gills very own Gills Raider! So the figuart is no different, it’s an excellent remold of the Gills Raider, released nearly 7 years ago! But that’s not all, the Jungraider also includes the last couple pieces of Amazon Omega’s arsenal, the Battler Grip Sickle & Battler Grip Whip! This is a truly interesting release that will compliment any Amazons collection.

We’ve put together over 40 images of S.H. Figuarts Jungraider after the jump. Just click “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” after the jump to see the full gallery & review. We’ll be back with more Amazons goodness soon with a full gallery of S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Amazon Alpha!
