For-For-For-Formula!

After the holiday rush Toku Toy Box is back in full swing with a brand new gallery! Today we’re making another pit stop with Kamen Rider Drive and S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Drive Type Formula!

Type Formula is Drive’s penultimate form, and much like his final form it has it’s lovers & detractors. I for one have always been a big fan of the Formula design but it doesn’t work for everyone. A recent Tamashii Web Exclusive, Formula is a unique release. Yes it includes the requisite extra hands, Formula Shift Car, Trailer Cannon, & even the swap-out Core Driviar-N chest. But Type Formula also includes a full decal sheet! The decals on this sheet help you recreate every single Shift Car “sponsor logo” on the suit! While this may seem tedious to most I have to admit it wasn’t that bad in practice.

We’ve included basically 2 galleries for the price of 1 here. A number of detailed photos of Type Formla without decals applied and a complete set of photos with decals applied as well! Read on by clicking “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post to enjoy over 80 images of Drive Type Formula! And remember that this gallery qualifies you for entry in our Toku Toy Box Giveaway! That means all you have to do is post something relevant to the conversation and you’re entered for a chance to win!

under Power Rangers

The goodies keep on coming in with the upcoming toys for the recently released Power Rangers Dino Supercharge toy line, available now at all major retailers! Today, we have our first look at some of the soon-to-be-released 5″ figures – namely the Super Dino Drive variety! Basically being a re-release of the Dino Drive figures, but this time with added spikes on their arms and legs to make them “Super”, this new assortment will feature every single Power Ranger with the upgrade.

For those who don’t watch the show – in recent years, if Saban Brands has elected to make their own cockpit for the Megazord battles, they also choose to go ahead and create their own “power up” forms inside the cockpit. We saw this originally with Mega Mode in Power Rangers Samurai, which followed with Shogun Mode as well. With Power Rangers Dino Charge, we’ve received it once with Dino Drive and we’ve already seen clips that show off this new Super Dino Drive mode as well.

Oh hey – and we get our first look at the regular and “Super Dino Drive” modes for the Silver Ranger!

Special thanks to the folks at RangerCrew.com for the find on these exciting images!

You may recall that on this day last year we posted our very first 2.0 Gallery kicking off our journey of self-improvement of some of our previous works. That gallery was none other than S.H. Figuarts Gokai Christmas! This year we wanted to remind you of this awesome figure on Christmas and also let you know that this gallery is good for an entry in this years Toku Toy Box! As with any other Toku Toy Box eligible gallery you just need to make a relevant (non-spam) post in this thread to give yourself another entry in out giveaway!

For a little refresher on this figure, Gokai Christmas was a special form achieved by Gokai Silver in Episode 44 of Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger. A Christmas themed episode itself, Silver/Gai sought to be more festive in the battle against Zangyack and so using his special abilities merged the Gokai Red & Green Ranger Keys! The result is this fantastic repaint that was released in 2013 as a Toei Hero.Net exclusive.

Though we’re sharing this gallery once again to celebrate the Christmas holiday, we know that many of our friends, family members, & staff also celebrate entirely different holidays all around the world. We’d like to take this moment to not only wish the community a Merry Christmas but also Happy Holidays! No matter what you may celebrate TokuNation is happy to have you here and we’re thrilled to continue yet another successful year with you.

We’re long past due sharing this one with you, but for Toku Toy Box we’re pulling out all the stops this year! Released just recently as a Tamashii Web Exclusive we’re happy to finally be able to take a look at the massive S.H. Figuarts Tridoron!

The Tridoron is one amazing collector’s piece. What you’ll immediately notice about it is the hefty die-cast metal used in the undercarriage as well as the gorgeous and near flawless paint applications. Get beyond the shock of these features though and what we have is an amazingly functional vehicle with a WEALTH of accessories. Tridoron has working LED’s for head/tail lights, fully detailed & functional interiors, a number of new faces for Mr. Belt are included, as are several items necessary to replicate Tire Koukans on this behemoth. But perhaps most interesting of all though is the removable Driver’s Side cutaway model! A special stand is even included for it’s display. S.H. Figuarts Tridoron is literally one of the most all inclusive packages I’ve ever seen.

Toku Toy Box returns with yet another gallery of a classic toy! Picking up where we left off with our Superchange Kabutack DX Gallery we’re moving 1 year ahead to Kabutack’s follow up series, Tetsuwan Tantei Robotack, the final Metal Hero! Today’s gallery will focus on the series lead character in toy form, Magnet Change Robotack!

A revolutionary toy line, Robotack features my absolute favorite gimmick ever; Magnet (Jishakku) Change! Each figure in the line consisted of a central torso with detachable limbs each embedded with a magnet. Not only did this allow you transform each figure from it’s Normal Mode to Super Mode but every figure in the line was totally interchangeable with one another! Any number of unique combinations is possible. Robotack himself is a sturdy die-cast laden toy more than worth adding to your collection, especially for the low prices he’s available for today!

Click “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post in order to view the entire 80 image gallery as well as a full review of this set! We’ve also included a short synopsis of Tetsuwan Tantei Robotack for those unfamiliar with the series. And remember that this gallery qualifies you for entry in our Toku Toy Box Giveaway! That means all you have to do is post something relevant to the conversation and you’re entered for a chance to win!

Superchange!

Toku Toy Box is back with yet another vintage gallery for your viewing pleasure! Today we take a look back at a classic entry in the Metal Heroes franchise circa 1997-1998 with B-Robo Kabutack! And the toy of it’s titular hero, the Superchange Kabutack DX Set!

An often overlooked series, B-Robo Kabutack was the spiritual successor to the long forgotten Toei Fushigi Comedy series. A franchise marked by fun loving almost child like robots and their human allies. Examples being shows like Batten Robomaru, Morimori Bokkun, & Robot 8-Chan. Kabutack sat itself apart with some fantastic production values, a plot that borrows more than a little bit from Dragonball, and an absolutely fantastic gimmick for it’s toyline; Superchange! This DX Superchange set includes the fully transformable Kabutack as well as his 2 armors Drillut & Zabut, each sporting 3 different combinations with Kabutack!

Click “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post in order to view the entire 100 image gallery as well as a full review of this set! We’ve also included a short synopsis of B-Robo Kabutack for those unfamiliar. And remember that this gallery qualifies you for entry in our Toku Toy Box Giveaway! That means all you have to do is post something relevant to the conversation and you’re entered for a chance to win! We’ll be back very soon with another gallery related to this one, in the form of Kabutack’s succesor. The final Metal Heroes series, Tetsuwan Tantei Robotack!

It’s finally here! The season finale of Power Rangers Dino Charge has arrived! And the season ends with a bang – literally! But we’re not going to give away too many spoilers here on the front page. So what’s this episode all about?

For starters – Sledge has the Purple Energem! And it’s going to take all seven of the Power Rangers to stop him! But just when our heroes are planning their attack strategy, they end up attacked and the unthinkable happens – Sledge gets his hands on a second Energem! Will the Power Rangers recover the stolen Energems? Will they finally be able to stop Sledge once and for all? And will that Purple Energem ever end up bonding to someone?

All of those questions are answered in this, the season finale of Power Rangers Dino Charge! Check out some screen captures (from the international airing) in the news story – then click on the ”Discuss on TokuNation forums” link to vote on the episode and share your thoughts!

The Thundering Brave, S.H. Figuarts Kyoryu Gold has arrived for Toku Toy Box with a brand new 2.0 gallery! Rounding out our trip down memory lane with Zyuden Sentai Kyoryuger it’s fitting that we end that trip with Kyoryu Gold.

Though he may have been the final Kyoryuger released, Kyoryu Gold is by far the best. Benefiting from a slightly bulkier build than the the previous five, Kyoryu Gold has by far the most heroic proportions. On top of this the figure also features a wonderful gold paint finish, and a decent load out of accessories. The massive Zandar Thunder sword, several sets of hands, a #6 Zyudenchi, the pre-attached Gaburichanger, and the most important accessory of all; the Fang Shot! Which is the final piece needed to create the Kentrospiker! 

With the apparent death of Super Sentai S.H. Figuarts we likely won’t ever get the rest of the Kyoryugers, but if that’s the case? Then S.H. Figuarts Kyoryu Gold is an appropriate finisher to the line. To see the full 50+ image gallery and read an in depth review of this figure just click “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post. And don’t forget this is gallery qualifies you for entry in our Toku Toy Box Giveaway! That means all you have to do is post something relevant to the conversation and you’re entered for a chance to win!

Brave In!

It’s been a long time coming but TokuNation is continuing it’s series of gallery do-overs or as we like to call them, Gallery 2.0! Earlier this year we posted 2 such galleries, S.H. Figuarts Kyoryu Red and S.H. Figuarts Kyoryu Blue & Kyoryu Green. Now this segment returns for Toku Toy Box with a 2.0 Gallery of S.H. Figuarts Kyoryu Black & Kyoryu Pink!

Kyoryu Black & Pink may have been out for a while now but that doesn’t diminish their excellence. Kyoryu Black of course shares the same excellent male Kyoryuger mold we’ve we’ve come to expect & Kyoryu Pink is an all body type! As with their Blue/Green predecessors this set comes with an array of accessories for themselves and also for the team. Their respective personal weapons the Parasagun & Drice Lance as well as Armed On Arms to compliment them, Gaburevolvers & Zyudenchi, Gaburicaliburs and an array of hands, and of course the Shield Lan Slasher parts needed to build the Kentrospiker!

We’ve assembled over 70 images of the S.H. Figuarts Kyoryu Black & Kyoryu Pink set for your viewing pleasure. To see all of them as well as read an in depth review just click “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post. We’ll be back with another 2.0 gallery next week as we reexamine S.H. Figuarts Kyoryu Gold! And don’t forget this is gallery qualifies you for entry in our Toku Toy Box Giveaway! That means all you have to do is post something relevant to the conversation and you’re entered for a chance to win!

It’s been a busy 24 hours for the 40th anniversary sentai, behind the scenes images, blurry catalog reveals, and finally a decent look at the toys we’re about to come to know for the next year.

In these clearest images yet from the Doubutsu Sentai Jyuouger toy catalog we’re treated to a full resolution look at the series initial main mecha, DX Jyuuou King! As well as looks at the first 8 Cube Animals in their alternate forms. This of course includes a small tease of Cube Gorilla & Giraffe. These images also give us our best look yet at the Jyuuougers themselves:

Jyuuoh Eagle
Jyuuoh Shark
Jyuuoh Lion
Jyuuoh Elephant
Jyuuoh Tiger

While there are most assuredly more images still to come related to Jyuuouger, for now these are the abosolute best quality we’ve seen. We’ll keep you up to date as more images begin to circulate!
