Yet another reveal from Figuroh was nearly missed, with Premium Bandai having announced a Drive Pitt diorama is currently being developed.
The diorama measures at 220 mm width and 310 mm height, though it appears too small to work with Figuarts-scale toys it might work with the 66action line.
The diorama will be retailing for 9504 yen before middleman fees and shipping
In a surprise turn of events Toei has just officially revealed the existence of yet another previously unknown Kamen Rider! The appropriately named Kamen Rider 4 (Yongo) takes a few cues from another recent addition, Kamen Rider 3, but is a primarily pilot themed rider wearing a military inspired suit. He even pilots a plane called the Sky Cyclone!
This character will be exclusive to a 3-part special video offered on the Japanese Dvideo service on March 28th. According to the description Kamen Rider 4 is created by Shocker in some sort of alternate timeline while Kamen Riders Drive, Zeronos, & Faiz fight to correct history! It seems as though the events of this 3-part special would be related to Super Hero Taisen GP based on the inclusion of these riders as well.
The penultimate form for Kamen Rider Drive has arrived on set! A few stealthily captured shots of Drive’s new upgrade, Type Formula, have just dropped and they give us our first glimpse of what we can expect.
A primarily blue F1-racer inspired form with a large spoiler on it’s back, these shots also indicate a bumper like protrusion on Drive’s chest. A green weapon, likely a tire accessory of some sort, is also shown. We’ll keep you updated as more information on this new form becomes available.
Additional toy catalog scans for Kamen Rider Drive’s third-quarter releases have come online! These appear to confirm Drive’s ultimate form, Type Tridoron!
Using a new Shift Car- the Shift Tridoron– Drive obtains a special ability called Tire Kakimazeru (meaning mix-up) that allows him to combine multiple Shift Cars for new attacks!
In addition, Drive will be obtaining two new vehicles: Ride Booster Red and Ride Booster Blue, a pair of go-karts that combine with the Tridoron for extra power.
Last but not least we also have confirmation of the next Tire Koukan action figure releases:
*TK-09 will be Type Formula, Drive’s next upgrade.
*TK-10 will be Kamen Rider Chaser!
*TK-11 will be Type Tridoron.
A leaked image from the upcoming second-quarter toy catalogs has surfaced online. This gives us a quick look at the Shingou Axe– a melee weapon based on a traffic light.
However, this upgrade is not just another weapon for Shinnosuke or Gou- the scans indicate that the Shingou Axe will belong to a NEW hero: Kamen Rider Chaser!
No details on Chaser are confirmed at this time but a connection to the Roimude Grim Reaper seems likely! Stay tuned to TokuNation for further details!
New magazine scans have revealed a special new power-up form for the current Kamen Rider series: Type DeadHeat!
DeadHeat is a form apparently shared by Kamen Rider Drive & Kamen Rider Mach, allowing one Rider to use the other’s abilities. The resulting hybrid form is definitely an unique visual for this series.
Type DeadHeat should be appearing this February! Tune in to Kamen Rider Drive and see what this new form is truly capable of!
A brief new teaser for the upcoming SuperHero Taisen GP film has been posted online. This preview gives us a quick look at several returning Riders and another good look at the newly-introduced Kamen Rider 3!
SuperHero Taisen GP will be released in theaters March 21 2015! Stay tuned to TokuNation as we keep you up to date on all Taisen details!
With faith in ourselves
And trust in each other
We live by the lessons we learned
As we work towards one solution
Through a spirit evolution
It’s the end of 2014 and the start of 2015 and Talkin Toku is ringing in the New Year the way they do best – by being late to it! Join Kickback aka Chris, Den-O aka Jordan and Sentai Tamashii aka Tom as they spend 2 horribly long hours reflecting on 2014 and looking ahead to 2015!
Before the reflection begins – it’s time to talk current Toku! Join in the discussion of their continued thoughts as more and more of Shuriken Sentai Ninninger is revealed! And the question everyone has on their minds … has Tom even seen the trailers for the damn show?! We also take a look at the extended Power Rangers Dino Charge (and discover if Tom has watched that trailer too).
Then we reflect on 2014. What was the Best Toku Toy of 2014? And the Worst Toku Toy of 2014? Reflecting on the year of news itself, What was the biggest Toku news of 2014? And the question that no one is going to accurately guess the answer to … our opinion on Which of the 3 Toku shows (Power Rangers Super Megaforce, Kamen Rider Gaim, and Zyuden Sentai Kyoryuger) had the best ending? We also take a moment to read YOUR answers to those questions – thanks to everyone who submitted their thoughts/opinions/answers!
And by popular demand … the return of Toku Company’s New Year’s Resolutions for 2015 … what we think Bandai of America, Bluefin Tamashii Nations, Tamashii Nations, Bandai Japan, Saban Brands Entertainment, and Shout! Factory should have for New Year’s Resolutions!
Join us in this end of the year celebration as we celebrate a staggering average of 1.25 episodes a month and promise to do better in 2015!

We have some new images that show off the detail of both Kamen Rider Mach and Mashin Chaser from Kamen Rider Drive taken from Uchusen Magazine’s Detail of Heroes which gives us an up close look at the suits and detail that goes in to them. With thanks to Cosmos773 from Rangerboard.com we can all drool a little bit more at all those bits and pieces of Mashin Chaser‘s suit design.
Check out the images and then join in the discussion! Kamen Rider Mach just made his debut in the last episode of Kamen Rider Drive – get a better look at his suit and discuss whether or not it’s a fitting design!
Filming is currently under way for the next Kamen Rider Drive special episode Secret Mission 3. Similarly to Hyper Battle Videos of the past this special episode will feature a new form for Drive, Type High Speed! Though blurry these images give us our first look at the suit.
Type High Speed is a primarily silver repaint of Type Speed with the red Type High Speed Tire attached. Though we initially thought this was just a new form for Drive, one of these images shows Type High Speed engaged in battle against defualt Drive Type Speed! And another shows High Speed fighting Kamen Rider Mach. We also get our first glimpse of the Mega Max Flare Tire & Shift car as well.
We’ll keep you updated as we learn more about this upcoming special.
