The annual Tamashii Nations event is under way and as ever, there are a plethora of new items on display. Just as with every Tamashii event, an item being displayed does not necessarily indicate that it will be released however. A number of new items are currently listed as “Display Only” as well.

That being said, this year’s event has certainly provided a number of figures of interest:

Shinkocchou Seihou S.H. Figuarts:
– Den-O Sword Form
– Kuuga Growing, Dragon, Pegasus & Titan Forms
– OOO TaJaDor, SaGoZho, LaToraTah & ShaUTa Combos
– Dark Kiva
– OOO Ridevendor

Kamen Rider S.H. Figuarts:
Grand Zi-O
Build Genius Form
Ex-Aid Muteki
Ghost Mugen Damashii
Metal Build
Cross-Z Evol

Vulcan Shooting Wolf
Valkyrie Rushing Cheetah
Rise Hopper

Ultraman S.H. Figuarts:
Ace
Joneus
Titus
Tregear
Grigio
Ultra Dark Killer

Tamashii Lab:
Ankh

That is a hefty grouping of new reveala. Once again, we know that not everything here will make it to production for some time, if at all. But it’s always pleasing to see just how much Tamashii pumps out for these events. As more new reveals, images, and information from the event surface we will update this story and the related thread.

“We’re the Hokuto Three Crows!
And we’re not just gonna tell you who we are.”

In the 3-sided war for Pandora’s Box that took shape early in Kamen Rider Build, it was the surprise appearance of this trio of Hard Smashes that turned everything upside down. Accompanying the powerful new rider, Kamen Rider Grease, the Hokuto Three Crows presented an uphill battle for Build & Cross-Z. Initially these heroes of Hokuto clashed with the main cast, but it wasn’t long before the real motives of the war and their perpetrator were revealed and these beloved allies of Kazumi Sawatari gave their all for their friend.

Castle, Stag, and Owl Hard Smash echo the trifecta of classic sentai colors, and ultimately they proved themselves heroes very much worthy of that influence. These figures of the trio are Figuarts Zero’s, basically statues, but snazzy shelf display pieces none the less. With some minimal articulation worked in, each is sculpted and painted wonderfully, and scaled perfectly to match any of your Kamen Rider Build family Figuarts. Regardless of any shortcomings, of which there are some, having the Hokuto Three ready to stand shoulder to shoulder with Grease is incredibly satisfying.

We’ve attached a full 80 image gallery to this post, but you can also read through our comprehensive review of the set by clicking “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post. Next time we’re getting back to action with some more Power Rangers Lightning Collection galleries!

In the immortal words of Woz,
“Rejoice! He is heir to the power of all riders”.

Kamen Rider Zi-O is nearing it’s end and the impending start of the Reiwa Era of Kamen Rider is on the horizon. And as this series and the Heisei Era come to an end, Tamashii Nations has just released the first of Zi-O’s power ups in figure form. S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Zi-O Build Armor is the first stepping stone along Sougo Tokiwa’s path to the future where he rules. Will he be a benevolent overlord, or succumb to the evils of Oma Zi-O? Time will tell.

For now, we’re tackling this first in a line of Zi-O Armor Time upgrades in the same we always have, with a comprehensive gallery & review! Zi-O Build Armor set the standard for what was to come with many of the shows’ various power ups as well as many that never made it in. This figure likewise sets an incredibly solid & stable standard for how the Zi-O line should progress from here on. A stylish figure with tons of personality inherited from both of it’s parent designs, and armed with the Drill Crusher Crusher (yes!) it’s an excellent addition to the power set of this benevolent overlord.

Check out a full 50+ images of S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Zi-O Build Armor after the jump by clicking “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post.  If you’d like to take a look back at the designs that influence this figure you can check out our galleries of Kamen Rider Build Rabbit/Tank Form and Kamen Rider Zi-O!

“In that case….. There’s only one answer!”

Utsumi Nariaki was one of the Nanba Children. Raised to be loyal to one man only, Juzaburo Nanba. Loyal until the day Juzaburo was murdered, Utsumi faithfully served. But seeing his master’s death at the hands of Kamen Rider Evol pushed him over the edge. With Utsumi’s spirit broken, he was faced with the impossible option to take revenge, or serve Evol. Accepting the power of the Evol Driver and rejecting the pain of his grief, Utsumi is reborn as Kamen Rider Mad Rogue!

A familiar mold returns for it’s 4th outing for Kamen Rider Build. Night Rogue, Blood Stalk, Hell Bros, and now Mad Rogue! A lavish repaint with some new molding, Mad Rogue is absolutely gorgeous in hand. While evoking the fierce grief of Utsumi’s loss, this figure does manage to look a bit like a certain G2 Transformer as well…. Armed with the Nebula Steam Gun and Steam Blade, Mad Rogue is a wonderful (and brightly colored) new menace for your heroic riders!

“I’ll let my passion burn, and crush you.”

Evolt is minutes away from total victory, harnessing the power of Pandora’s Box & the Lost Bottles, he will consume the Earth and countless more planets. Sento & Banjou must press on to fight him, but standing in their way are clones of the Hokuto Three! With only his life left to give, Kazumi will face his fallen friends one more time. But the power of Grease alone won’t be enough. Kazumi must wield the deadly Blizzard Knuckle and walk the lonely path of a hero. With frozen fists and an icy resolve, Grease becomes Kamen Rider Grease Blizzard!

Grease Blizzard joins the Build line up of Figuarts nearly a year after his debut. A very late stage one off addition to the show, it goes without saying that actor Kouhei Takeda’s incredible performance drove his character’s arc, and eventual upgrade. The Blizzard episodes (46 & 47) in particular were very powerful, and it’s wonderful to finally have a figure to represent him in that moment. Grease Blizzard is a combination of the basic Cross-Z & original Grease body molds but features two new key changes as well. The fully functional Blizzard Knuckle & a new robotic left hand, the GBZ Demolition One!

We have an icy 60 images of Kamen Rider Grease Blizzard for you to check out after the jump. Just click “discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post to see them, and read through our full review. The next time we visit the world of Build, we’ll be meeting the mad man himself, Kamen Rider Mad Rogue!
