Leaks of these two made their way out just a few weeks ago, but now they’ve been officially revealed and they look absolutely stunning.

After a brief teaser of this release earlier in the week, Tamashii Nations has fully revealed and confirmed release details for S.H. Figuarts Shinkocchou Seihou Kamen Rider Hibiki Kurenai!

It’s been a few months since a new figure from Kamen Rider Hibiki has been announced or released, the last couple being Zanki and Todoroki. So it’s refreshing to see this long overdue form finally make it’s debut in the Seihou line. Since Hibiki’s release in the line 6 years ago, it’s been hoped by fans that the difficult to procure mold would see re-release in this gorgeous form.

Now we can expect to see it finally Kamen Rider Hibiki Kurenai release this July for 7150 yen!

“Listen Todoyama, I’m leaving this to you.”

Like any Oni master, Zaoumaru Zaitsuhara took on an apprentice to pass along his skills, and one day his title too as well. But the young man once known as Tomizo Todoyama had other plans. Refusing to inherit his masters title, to create his own legacy, Todoyama took on the name Todoroki! It was then that Kamen Rider Zanki passed on the remainder of his knowledge, his skills, and the mighty Ongekiken Retsurai to the Oni Todoroki. But a warrior’s journey is forvere. Never far from the battlefield, and returning once again to take up the Ongekiken Retsuzan, Zanki continues the fight alongside his disciple, for as long as his body will last!

Kamen Rider Hibiki joined the S.H. Figuarts line as a Shinkocchou Seihou release for the first time over 4 years ago. Then last year, Tamashii Nations made a second addition to this world with Kamen Rider Ibuki. Earlier this year Zanki’s apprentice Kamen Rider Todoroki  joined and now finally we have Kamen Rider Zanki. Four releases in, this group of Oni Riders has shaped up to be some of best that Bandai has to offer. Zanki is another brilliant release, and if you’ve handled any of the Hibiki riders you know exactly what you’re in for. Armed with the Ongekiken Retsuzan, Zanki is ready to face the Makamou with the best Oni out there.

“I just can’t see myself replacing you, Zanki.”

Kamen Rider Hibiki finally joined the S.H. Figuarts line over 4 years ago. Then last year, Tamashii finally made their second addition from Hibiki’s world to this line with Kamen Rider Ibuki. And while the Oni Riders have been slow to appear in the Shinkocchou Seihou line, it looks like things are gaining momentum now! With an upcoming release for Kamen Rider Zanki on the way, we’re taking today to look at his recently released apprentice and partner, Kamen Rider Todoroki!

Todoroki is yet another insanely gorgeous Oni to add to your collection. The Hibiki mold has some minor shortcomings still, but it’s undeniable the kind of shelf presence that each successive use of it brings to the table. Todoroki like his predecessors is armed with 3 Disc Animals but more importantly the massive Ongekigen Retsurai. This incredibly ornate guitar weapon is probably one of my favorite accessories in a long time. When combined with Todoroki’s Ongekishin Raigou and with the blades extended, this is a weapon for any villain to fear!

We’ve attached the full 75+ image gallery to this post but you can also read through our full review of Shinkocchou Seihou Todoroki by clicking “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post.

Iori Izumi was born into the head Oni family of the Kanto region. A prodigy driven by loyalty to his family, and to his duty to defeat the Makamou, Izumi fully abandoned his human identity and fully became the Oni of the Izumi family, Kamen Rider Ibuki! After nay years of waiting, this master Oni of Breath arrives blow away any Makamou that stand in his path. For the first time ever, Ibuki makes his debut in the S.H. Figuarts line as a Shinkocchou Seihou!

Kamen Rider Hibiki finally joined the S.H. Figuarts line for the first time over 4 years ago, as only the 2nd Shinkocchou Seihou release, which set the bar fairly high at the time. After a long wait Hibiki’s secondary rider has arrived, so what can you expect? Well Ibuki shares the same physical body as Hibiki, just with new cosmetic changes to the armor. Decked out with brass styled pipes mimicking the Ongekikan Reppuu instrument he uses to destroy Makamou. Much like Hibiki this figure is packed down with accessories including his transformation whistle Onibue, and 3 disc animals. It’s really the full package.

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!

The controversial Kamen Rider Hibiki will be the next Kamen Rider series to make the leap to high definition!

Released in 2005, Hibiki quickly became famous for sidestepping some of the more “traditional” Kamen Rider elements AND a sudden crew change roughly halfway through the series resulting in a somewhat drastic tonal shift.

Kamen Rider Hibiki will be released in three separate box sets-

*Set 1 will be released on January 9 2019 and contain the first fourteen episodes.

*Set 2 is scheduled for release on March 6 2019 and contain episodes 15-29.

*Set 3 rounds out the series with episodes 30-48 & will be available on May 8 2019.

In addition the various volumes will contain interviews and retrospectives from a number of Hibiki cast members.

Each Blu-Ray set of Kamen Rider Hibiki will cost a steep 17800 Yen before shipping and handling.
