“The highest level, the most powerful body!”

To combat the immortal Kamen Rider GenM, Emu Hojo will have to max out his level! Using a gift from beyond the grave left by Kiriya Kujo, the ultimate Gashat is born. Maximum level, maximum strength, and the ability to reprogram the Bugster virus, all rolled into one. The man who’s the source of the Bugster virus itself, is destined to save humanity from it as Ex-Aid reaches his highest level, 99!

Oddly enough, Ex-Aid Level 99 is actually a repaint of GenM Level Billion. Even though the history of these two forms existing in the series & films is actually the reverse. Whatever the case for how this release came second is, it’s an undeniably good one. This mold looked incredible stylish in the evil GenM colors, but seeing it done up in Ex-Aid’s rather unique palette, is incredibly pleasing as well. Armed with the Gashacon Key Slasher and far more articulation than you realize, Ex-Aid Level 99 will be an imposing shelf presence and a fantastic foil to Level Billion.

“I will make Emu smile again.”

Based on the memory of Kuroto Dan’s mother, the bugster Poppy was an indispensable and trustworthy ally to the Kamen Rider doctors of CR. But with her memories erased & programming rebooted, Poppy became an unwilling part of Kamen Rider Chronicle. Forced to fight Ride Players by Parad & Graphite, Poppy became a Kamen Rider! But with the help of Emu and the others, Poppy’s old memories broke through. Rejecting Chronicle, wishing only to play with her friends and help others, Poppy awakens to her true heroic spirit as Kamen Rider Poppy!

Kamen Rider Poppy was released way back in March, and we finally had the time to get down to a full review of her this week. Poppy made waves with her rider debut in show, so it’s appropriate that this ball of positive energy is a pretty great figure as well. Packed with personality and armed with the Bugvisor Zwei, Poppy can literally be your devil or your angel. Especially with the Zwei in Chainsaw Mode! While we wish an alternate head was included, it’s undeniable how stylish this figure looks, particularly as part of a wider Ex-Aid collection. Ex-Aid Level 2 & GenM Level 0 in particular will compliment her very well.

“Armor Time! Level Up! GenM!

In a future that should never have been, Kuroto Dan has truly become a king. Chosen by the Time Jackers to rule in his own way, Kuroto Dan has become Another OOO! Luckily for our heroes Geiz has acquired the GenM Ridewatch, and travelling to 2016 will fight the Bugster God before his corrupted future can take place. Buying time until Sougo can obtain the power of OOO, Geiz will fight this counterfeit king and his Yummies as Kamen Rider Geiz GenM Armor!

Geiz GenM Armor is another solid entry for the Zi-O family of S.H. Figuarts.  While ostensibly a remold of the base Geiz figure, it’s actually just an extensive repaint of Zi-O Build Armor with a handful of new parts. In a striking black and purple colors scheme, with a Rider Gauge of it’s own, Proto Mighty Action X Gashat shoulders, and that signature Ex-Aid style hair, this armor evokes the menace of Kuroto Dan wonderfully. Though it may not come with any real accessories, if you own any other GenM figures, I’d say this figure can find a perfect home in your collection.

Seen most recently at the Tamashii Nations Tokyo event in April, Bandai has just confirmed release details for the upcoming S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Gamedeus Cronus!

Taking a roundabout way to getting released, Gamedeus Cronus has been seen in one form or another at several Tamashii events. At one point only the Deus Rusher & Deus Rampart sword & shield were seen, being held by a standard Cronus Figuart. Thankfully today’s new images not only confirm it’s status as a Tamashii Web Exclusive, but also it’s October 2019 release window and 7150 yen price.

Since this is an exclusive, be sure to watch your preferred sites or middleman services for pre-orders.

LEVEL UP!

Joining alongside S.H.Figuarts Kamen Rider Zi-O II that we posted earlier, our second reveal is for fans of Kamen Rider Ex-Aid, and it’s none other than S.H.Figuarts Gemedus Chronus!

At the moment, both Gemedeus Chronus and Zi-O II are display only items so we have no indication on when/if they’ll come out and how much they’ll cost.

Do check back with us though, and we’ll provide updates as soon as they’re made available for pre-order.

“Those who betrayed me are far beyond forgiveness!”

The one and only Game Master returns! Deleted previously by Parad, Kuroto Dan’s data was scattered into the Proto Mighty Action X Gashat and seemingly lost. But thanks to Poppy, Kuroto’s data was recovered and the game master was reborn, as a Bugster! Now imbued with all the abilities of a Bugster, and begrudgingly joining up with the team at CR, Kuroto has returned to stop Parad, Masamune, and anyone else who gets in the way of his path to godhood!

S.H. Figuarts Shin Kuroto Dan represents this reprehensible rider after his rebirth as a Bugster in episode 31 of Ex-Aid. Taking on the moniker Shin (new), Kuroto begins to indulge in some of his wilder tendencies. This figure, while imperfect, certainly does a fair job of recreating the insanity of his character at this point as well. Civilian figuarts still aren’t incredibly common, so the expectations can be big surrounding releases such as this. Couple that with the inclusion of the Continue Pipe the character is infamous for, and collectors had high hopes over this release. So how did it turn out in the end?

We’ve attached the full 50+ image gallery to this post, but you can read our in depth review of Shin Kuroto Dan after the jump by clicking “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums”. We’ll be back soon with a brand new gallery from Kamen Rider Amazons: The Last Judgement! And don’t forget that this gallery enters you in for a chance to win one of a number of possible prizes in our annual Toku Toy Box giveaway!

Today, Toei began streaming a new video promoting the upcoming Kamen Rider Heisei Generations Forever film (which comes out in two days!). But rather than just a new teaser or trailer for the film, this video previews the films theme song, which is itself a compilation and re-mix of the Opening Themes for all 20 Heisei Riders!

Titled “Heisei Generations Forever Medley D.A. Re-Build Mix” this song arranges clips from each of the 20 Heisei Rider OP’s into one giant song, set to a variety of archival footage as well as new scenes from the soon to be released film itself.  This new theme was arranged by Daisuke Asakura.

Kamen Rider Heisei Generations Forever hits Japanese theaters on December 22nd! Best to dodge spoilers on social media for a bit, but if you’d like to join in on our ongoing discussion of the film, feel free to pop into our discussion thread linked below.
