“Electroplate”!
The original Space Sheriff Gavan is without a doubt one of the most iconic tokusatsu heroes ever. The originator of the Metal Heroes franchise & Space Sheriff title, Gavan has been in a resurgence ever since his 2011 return in Gokaiger VS Gavan. Reprising the role of this iconic character each time has been legendary actor Kenji Ohba! Now, years after the first Gavan figuarts were released and even the Gavan Renewals, we at last have Gavan’s civilian form with S.H. Figuarts Retsu Ichijoji!
Retsu Ichijoji is the 2nd release in Bandai’s new sub-line of civilian identity figuarts, preceded by Dan Moroboshi and followed by Takeshi Hongo. Improving on the faults of Dan, Retsu is a fantastic release. Bringing to life the young likeness of Kenji Ohba, this figure fantastically replicates Gavan circa his debut in 1982. Boasting some really great articulation Retsu is complimented by a couple set of hands as well as an effect sheet to replicate the electroplating process that transforms him into Space Sheriff Gavan!
We’ve attached the full 75 image gallery to this post, but you can also check out our full review of the figure by clicking “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post. We’ll be back soon with (hopefully) one more gallery before the new year!
“Let’s leave light in the dust!”
2017 is shaping up to be the year of the Metal Heroes! The momentum for this new golden age of Toei’s 3rd big franchise started in 2012, with Gavan Vs Gokaiger which set the precedent for future Metal Hero/Sentai crossovers. Flash forward to 2017 with the release of Space Squad: Gavan Vs Dekaranger and we get a brand new figuart as well, S.H. Figuarts Space Sheriff Gavan Type G Space Squad Version!
The Space Squad version of Gavan Type G is meant to be a renewal of sorts for the old original mold. One that was riddled with quality issues. I’m happy to report though that this time around, Gavan Type G is much improved physically! One big thing that really sets this release apart from the first though is the new Laser Blade Origin. A powerful new weapon that forged on Juspions’ home world. And luckily we get 3 variations of this new weapon.
We’ve attached a mere selection of the full gallery to this post. If you click “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post then you can view over 100 images of Gavan Type G and the various heroes of Space Squad!
The Tamashii Nations Akiba Showroom has updated it’s displays once again with a slew of new releases and at least one yet to be confirmed:

Several new magazine scans have surfaced online detailing the further adventures of the Uchu Sentai KyuRanger!
*First up, Lucky will gain a new power-up thanks to the Hikari KyuTama! This unique double-sided KyuTama will allow Shishi Red to switch between 2 new forms: Shining Star Taiyo Shishi Red & Moody Star Shishi Red Moon!
*Elsewhere, Sasori Orange continues his vendetta against his evil brother Scorpio. But Oushi Black steps in, also having personal reasons to hate Scorpio. Who will survive the encounter?
*Last but CERTAINLY not least is confirmation of a special crossover episode! The KyuRangers will be joined by Dekarangers’ DekaRed and the Space Sheriff Gavan!
