“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. Next time, we’ll revisit the world of games and medicine with a gallery of Kamen Rider Poppy!

Yet another veteran Kamen Rider has been confirmed for an appearance in Kamen Rider Zi-O!

The next adventure for the King Of Time is to seek the power of the Oni Riders from the age of Kamen Rider Hibiki! To assist in this quest, actor Shingo Kawaguchi will reprise his role as the guitar-wielder Kamen Rider Todoroki! This will be Kawaguchi’s second time revisiting this role; he had previously portrayed the AR World version of Todoroki in Kamen Rider Decade.

Zi-O’s encounter with the Oni is currently scheduled to begin on April 28 2019! Feel free to join in our Ongoing Kamen Rider Zi-O Discussion Thread to share your thoughts and fears on this remarkable series!

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! 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.

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.

Kamen Rider Hibiki releases have been making their way out much more quickly this year. Just released in September was Kamen Rider Ibuki, we’ve got Todoroki coming up in January 2019, and now we can confirm the release of S.H. Figuarts Shinkocchou Seihou Kamen Rider Zanki in May 2019!

Joining the other Oni of Hibiki, Zanki is another excellent recreation of a gorgeous suit from the series. Zanki includes alternate parts for his Henshin Kigen Onka, 3 disc animals, several sets of hands as well as his trademark Ongekigen Retsurai guitar weapon.

S.H. Figuarts Shinkocchou Seihou Kamen Rider Zanki will be released in May 2019 for 7020 yen as a Tamashii Web Exclusive. Be sure to get in touch with your preferred middleman or service to secure an order.

Figure Oh scans have already confirmed release information for SOC King Brachion, and now a new pair of Kamen Rider are on the way!

S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Brave Fantasy Gamer Level 50 is another missing link for Brave collector’s. When Bandai skipped ahead to Brave’s Level 100 form, many were wondering when this form would actually happen. Fear no more, as Brave Level 50 is now confirmed for a February 2019 release at 6480 yen as a Tamashii Web Exclusive.

Likewise S.H. Figuarts Shinkocchou Seihou Kamen Rider Todoroki finally completes the original trio of Oni Riders. Also headed our way a Tamashi Web Exclusive, todoroki will beat Brave to market in January 2019 for 7020 yen. When official images for these figures are released we’ll be sure to update our ongoing discussion thread. Keep a lookout til then!

With Kamen Rider Zi-O heralding the end of the Heisei Era for Kamen Rider, and in commemoration of the 20th Heisei Rider himself, Tamashii Nations has announced the S.H. Figuarts Heisei Riders Rising Project!

The Rising Project announcement promises the reveal of 3 new Heisei Rider figuarts in the near future. The first of these 3 riders will be revealed on August 24th. Currently speculation is running wild as to what these 3 figures will actually be. Will this be Kiva’s time? There’s Zi-O which begins airing next month  as well, so now would be an ideal time to reveal his first figuart. Then there’s the possibility that 1 or more of these figures could be a Shinkocchou Seihou renewal of an out of date release like OOO, Fourze, or even Faiz.

Exactly who these 3 Heisei Riders are, is something we’ll be watching closely in the coming weeks. So we’ll be sure to keep the community up to date!

While orders may be closing this month for S.H. Figuarts Shinkocchou Seihou Kamen Rider Ibuki, Bandai has release a fresh set of official images of him on their blog. Although this figure won’t actually be released until August, it looks absolutely stunning in these shots. Perhaps more importantly though, these images give us our first official look at Seihou releases for Kamen Riders Todoroki & Zanki!

Both of these figures have made appearances at previous Tamashii events with Ibuki, though so far he’s the only one of the trio due for release. Could this mean another pair of Oni will be joining our collections soon? We can only hope. We’ll keep you up to date on all of these gorgeous figures when and as more information becomes available.

Yesterday we brought you the news that S.H. Figuarts Shinkocchou Seihou Kamen Rider Ibuki was finally being released, and now Tamashii Nations have confirmed just when you can get your hands on the next Kamen Rider Hibiki Oni and for just how much.

Kamen Rider Ibuki will release in August 2018 as a Tamashii web exclusive, for the price of 7020 yen. Like Hibiki he also comes with a wide selection of accessories, including four additional pairs of hands,  alternate belt parts, his Onibue Onteki whistle transformation device in both folded and unfolded states, 3 different disk animals (in disk form) and of course his signature Ongekikan Reppuu trumpet.

Hopefully this means release information for Kamen Riders Zanki and Todoroki will follow soon! Will you be adding S.H. Figuarts Shinkocchou Seihou Kamen Rider Ibuki to your collection? Let us know in the discussion linked!
