Awhile back it was announced that there would be a DVD feature for Kamen Rider Gaim entitled “Hyper Battle”, which would be out of continuity of the show and mainly feature your favorite characters from Kamen Rider Gaim in previously unseen arms changing armors. So for example, Kamen Rider Gaim could wear the Melon Arms from Kamen Rider Zangetsu. As part of the promotion for the upcoming DVD, Ganbarizing.com threw up some images of these arms changes, featuring your heroes in-suit wearing new arms. One of the highlights is seeing Kamen Rider Zangetsu in multiple different armors (and I have to admit, using Ryugen’s armor looks beautiful!). A teaser at the end of the page hints that the next update will feature Kamen Rider Gridon, Kamen Rider Kurokage, and Kamen Rider Knuckle swapping various armaments.

All aboard!

We’re back with another one-two punch of trains! Ressha Sentai ToQger marches on and so does it’s toyline!

Today we’re taking a look at the most recent pair of Support Resshas from the series, DX Car Carrier & Tank Ressha! This pair of course will be integral to the upcoming Diesel Oh formation. But until Diesel is released why not stop in and check out how fun these little trains can be on their own? Until Diesel Oh can be formed why no whet your appetite with ToQ Oh Tank, ToQ Oh Car Carrier, & ToQ Oh Car Carrier Tank? Or several other wacky and unorthodox combos you can form with these extras!

While your here also be sure to check out Balmatrix’s fine video review of this pair, seen below! And when you’re ready click “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post to be taken to the FULL gallery! Our team-up of ToQger merch isn’t over yet either, the Renketsu Bazooka is next on the agenda!

The cat’s out of the bag – we found out at the end of the latest episode of Kamen Rider Gaim that our good buddy Kaito, aka Kamen Rider Baron, is somehow going to get himself his own Energy Lock Seed. We now know it’s none other than the Lemon Energy Lock Seed, and that he will henshin in to the Lemon Energy Arms Baron! Check out these detailed images from Detail of Heroes, courtesy the folks of the Fruit Rider News blog!

Be sure to tune in to the next episode of Kamen Rider Gaim to see the new form of Kamen Rider Baron in action!

The eagerly anticipated Kamen Rider Gaim – Showa vs Hesei Movie features two very unique Lock Seeds – the Showa Lock Seed and the Heisei Lock Seed. During the film, it’s been previewed that Kamen Rider Gaim will use the Showa Lock Seed to henshin and use the Number One Arms, made up of the earlier Kamen Riders. Thanks to images from the latest release of Details of Heroes, we have a better look at this glorious new form. Images courtesy of Fruit Rider Blog.

Many collectors just don’t simply have the green in their wallets to be able to afford all the cool stuff that comes out. And some of us simply don’t like various things because of the lack of articulation or just how something looks. When it comes to Bandai of Japan DX Mechas, sometimes articulation is sacrificed for playability and a gimmick. Such would appear to be the case with the DX ToQOh, where many collectors were just turned off by an awkward standing robot that has very limited articulation. If you’re one of those collectors who passed on that figure because of those reasons, then the Mini-Pla ToQOh just might be what you’re looking for.

Thanks to photo contributor MoonBaseTom, we have a number of high-resolution galleries of this mini figure for you to look at. Featuring nearly identical transformations to the full size toy, this figure should normally cost you roughly $25 before shipping for a set – though expect prices to go up as the item goes out of stock and is phased out of assortments. Click on the discussion link to be taken to the thread to see all the great images!

Site contributor baltmatrix also did a video review of this figure, so if you’d like to see it in action we have you covered there as well! Be sure to subscribe to baltmatrix’s YouTube channel so you can stay up to date on all these great figures and toys coming out for various franchises. I am an owner of this figure and I cannot recommend it enough – especially if you’re a fan of model kits or have been a lifelong Gundam builder and never ventured outside that realm. You will not suffer any buyer’s remorse on this item – except for the stickers. They continue to become a pain release after release.

So are you sold yet? Join in the discussion of this awesome Mini-Pla set! Be sure to get your orders in for the DiselOh assortment, which just had orders go live across various online important stores today!

This was a little surprise this evening. Nick.com has launched their latest web browser game, Power Rangers Super Megaforce Legacy, where you take control of the Super Megaforce Power Rangers characters and battle your way through stages, gathering key components to purchase additional Ranger Keys to unlock more powers.

I personally had some issues with the game – mainly that I suck at it! But maybe you can do better. Click here to check out the game! And also be sure to enjoy the random error in the listing of keys – the Magna Defender is now, apparently, the Quantam Lost Galaxy Ranger. The music is really awesome though – so check it out and let us know what you think!

Mix!

It’s time that TokuNation brought you a juicy fix of Kamen Rider Gaim once again with a brand new Arms Change gallery!

Today we’re looking at AC10 Kamen Rider Gaim Jinba Arms! This very unique figure has the ability to transform into Jinba Peach. Melon, Lemon, or Cherry Forms! Lemon is of course the one seen most regularly in show, but as we know now depending on which Energy Lock Seed Gaim uses for a Jinba form he gains an extra ability. Of course toys can’t utilize super powers, but this one is fun and looks very stylish while trying to!

As always this is yet another excellent addition to the Arms Change line! Check out the full gallery of this figure by clicking “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post. Check back with us in a few weeks for an Arms Change Kachidoki Arms Gallery as well!

The train is in the station! Ressha Sentai ToQger is well underway and so is our coverage of the toyline!

Today we’re sharing this gallery of the Norikae (Transfer) Change ToQ 1 figure! At first glance a lot of people may have dismissed this as “just another gimmick line”. And while it doesn’t contain the juiciness of the Kamen Rider Gaim Arms Change line, Norikae Change is certainly a step above standard fair for Sentai. Unlike Figures of previous years these are actually about the same scale as the accompanying rider (Gaim) line. And are roughly equivalent to S.H. Figuarts in terms of size and posability.

If you’re on the fence about this figure then just click “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post to be taken to our full gallery and review of this fun figure. I highly recommend it!

Time for one last Titanium Powered gallery from TokuNation!

One last reminder, everyone’s favorite Power Rangers are fighting it out in Saban’s Morphin Madness competition! And the one and only Titanium Ranger is still going strong in the final round!  If he wins, he along with 4 other winning rangers will become part of a special edition Ranger Key Set! Before you take a look at this gallery in honor of Titanium Ranger, be sure to head over to Morphin Madness and cast a vote for him!

Today we take a look at something truly unique, much like Titanium Ranger himself. It’s the Titanium Crawler! This deluxe zord type vehicle is from the Power Rangers Lightspeed Rescue toyline, though it has no in show counterpart. It’s based around the same design as the Lightspeed Red Mobile Armor but with it’s own crawler vehicle mode. Designed by PLEX this vehicle was considered heavily for an actual appearance in show. But due to the budget of Lightspeed being strained by the other original already introduced (Trans-Armor Cycle, Mobile Armor, Titanium Ranger, etc) it’s appearance was thrown out,  it exists only in toy form. 

Check out the full gallery of the Titanium Crawler after the jump by clicking “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post. And Be sure get over to Morphin Madness and #VoteTitanium!
