Figure Rise Standard Kamen Rider Build Tank Rabbit will be released in July and cost 3,240 yen.
Toei has officially uploaded the first full image of the next Kamen Rider to join the adventure that is Kamen Rider Build!
This is Kamen Rider Evol! This mysterious figure uses an incredibly powerful new henshin device called the EvolDriver.
While fans have speculated as to the identity of this Rider since toy listings first surfaced, we will leave any further details OFF the frontpage out of respect for the fans who wish to enjoy Build’s saga unspoiled.
Kamen Rider Evol will debut in the next episode of Kamen Rider Build! Stay tuned to TokuNation for further developments on this remarkable Rider series!
The Tamashii Nations S.H. Figuarts blog is sharing a treat with us today. Seitou’s dangerous rider, S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Rogue! They’ve recently gotten in a prototype sample of this upcoming figure for quality check purposes, and have shared a handful of images for fans to salivate over.
Check out everything after the jump by clicking “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post. And remember, S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Rogue will be released in September for 6264 yen as a Tamashii Web Exclusive. Be sure to keep an eye on your prferred middleman service to secure an order for one!
“Vaporize.”
Himuro Gentoku’s presence at the opening of Pandora’s Box changed him, changed his fate. Driven to become someone new, the Deputy Prime Minister would help found Faust. Experimenting on humans to create the Smash, working & clashing with the mysterious Blood Stalk, all the while hiding his other identity. One day Himuro will become Kamen Rider Rogue, but for now the “Bat-Man” is the villain who will menace Kamen Rider Build. This is S.H. Figuarts Night Rogue!
Night Rogue is our 2nd release for Build and of course the first villain for the series so far. While we’ll see this mold make another outing as Blood Stalk, I’m happy to report that in it’s initial outing, it’s really won me over. Despite appearances, Night Rogue is a really dynamic and well executed figure with plenty of detailing and personality. Between the way the upper body can pose, the haunting way the eyes shine through his visor, and his fully functional sidearm the Transteam Rifle, Night Rogue is an absolute winner in my book.
We’ve attached the full 80 image gallery to this post, but you can also check out our full review of Night Rogue by clicking “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post. Next time, Hyper Clock Up!
DANGER
Bandai’s next entry into the Kamen Rider Build series of S.H.Figuarts releases, and as you may have guessed from the title and the photos it will be none other than everyone’s favorite croc-faced Kamen Rider: S.H.Figuarts Kamen Rider Rogue!
Detail’s on this release are currently forthcoming, but we do know that the aforementioned S.H.Figuarts Kamen Rider Rogue prototype was spotted at the Tamashii Nation’s Akiba Showroom, so a Tamashii Web exclusive release is highly likely. Stay tuned, and we’ll update you as soon as this figure becomes available for pre-order.
The latest round of Kamen Rider Build magazine scans has been posted online, revealing a powerful new transformation for at least one Rider! This is our first real look at Kamen Rider Cross-Z Magma! The escalating Rider War forces Sento to develop even stronger equipment, and the first one to test it out is Banjo!
By using a new device called the Magma Knuckle along with the Dragon & Magma FullBottles, Cross-Z takes on his greatest configuration to date!
The Magma Knuckle should be making its onscreen appearance in the very near future. Stay tuned to TokuNation as we keep you up to date on this blazing Kamen Rider series!
Tsubureru! Nagareru! Afurederu!
In case you missed it, Kamen Rider Grease will be the next entry into S.H.Figuart’s Kamen Rider Build release, and since it’s unveiling sometime ago, the pre order page has now gone live, and we’re given another clearer look at this release.
Pre-Orders for this piece are set to begin March 23rd, 2018. Currently slated for release August 2018, S.H.Figuarts Kamen Rider Grease will retail for 6,264 yen.
Not to be outdone, fans of Kamen Rider Build are also given something to look forward to in upcoming SH Figuarts releases!
First glimpsed yesterday in the Akiba Showroom, Bandai Japan has now put up an official teaser image for SH Figuarts Kamen Rider Grease!
The warrior of Hokuto is seen alongside the SH Figuarts for Kamen Rider Build RabbitTank Sparking and Kamen Rider Cross-Z Charge as an excellent comparison showing off the current Rider Trio.
Unfortunately, price and release details for Kamen Rider Grease remain unconfirmed at time of writing. Stay tuned to TokuNation for further details!
Tamashii Nations’ Akiba Showroom recently updated it’s displays, and among them is a brand new figure as well as a few returning faces from previous events!
First up is the first appearance of S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Grease, who like his fellow Sclash Driver user Cross-X charge utilises translucent plastic parts on the face and chest. There is no release date information for the Kamen Rider Build character as of yet, however at the time of writing it is being reported as a Tamashii web exclusive.
Next up are two more figures from Kamen Rider Ex-Aid – Kamen Rider Cronus and Kamen Rider Genm God Maximum Gamer Level 1000000000. These figures have been seen at previous Tamashii events, and although Genm is a repaint of the (currently unreleased) Kamen Rider Ex-Aid Maximum Gamer Level 99 figure it’s reappearance here has been well-timed with the release of the Kamen Rider Ex-Aid: Another Ending V-Cinema trilogy in which it debuts. Again, neither of these figures currently have release dates but Cronus is being reported as a web exclusive.
Check out the full-sized images after the jump and we’ll bring you more information on these figures as it comes!
