Bandai, via Narikiri World, showcased a preview of upcoming items that will become available for pre-order through the month of October. The items preveiwed are:
Fan speculation is that the Gokai Saber – from Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger – will be part of the “Memorial” line of items, giving us a near 1:1 scale sword to go with the recently released Memorial Mobirate and Memorial Gokai Cellular.
Stay tuned for more updates.
Bandai Japan has announced, to no one’s surprise, a re-release of the CSM Accel Driver 1.5 themed after Fuuto PI much like the CSM Double Driver 1.5 before it.
Our friends at Team Kamen Rider have shared the information as well, meaning a US release is forthcoming. Stay tuned for more details and for pre-order information.
All the Kamen Rider Double Fuuto PI announcements will have your bank account saying “Now, count up your sins!”.
Bandai has announced four new additions to the Complete Selection Modification series of their Kamen Rider belts and accessories, this time all being focused on Kamen Rider Double Fuuto PI. Announced today are:
The first two items to become available on Tuesday, August 9th are:
No official word on the details though it is likely a fresh coat of paint with new voice chips. As soon as details emerge we’ll share them with you!
NOTE: These items will be made available to order in North America.
It’s time once again for our Toku Toy Box Giveaway, a staple of TokuNation‘s history. Every year in December we give away tokusatsu toys and collectibles to our readers, fans, and followers – just because you’re great!
This year will be a little bit different than years past. The global pandemic has hit us all in some way, shape, or form and our staff is no exception. Previously we would require everyone to register on our forums and comment on special galleries for the entirety of the month. Unfortunately we were unable to prepare any galleries in time for Toku Toy Box 2021.
This year everything will be given away on our Twitter account – @TokuNation – with simple “Follow, Like, RT” rules in place. We’re also incredibly delighted to share our two sponsors for this year’s Toku Toy Box – Tokullectibles.com and Team Kamen Rider of Bluefin Brands/Bandai-Namco! Unfortunately, due to increased shipping costs and numerous shipping delays, as well as legalities with having sponsored companies donating items, this year we will only be opening Toku Toy Box to residents in the United States. We are hoping to have an international giveaway sometime in the spring so for our international followers please stay tuned for more info!
And now for the goodies! This year we’re incredibly excited to be giving away the following items:
These items will be grouped together for a series of giveaways leading up to the end of the year! Again – make sure you’re following us on Twitter at @TokuNation! Happy Holidays and thanks for being one of our awesome readers/followers/fans!
Don’t say no, just buy more! Those were the lyrics, right? Premium Bandai has announced the next Lockseed set in the CSM Kamen Rider Gaim product line. Fans of the namesake Rider, Kamen Rider Gaim, will be happy to see these Lockseeds included – especially ones never before released in the previous DX line!
This CSM Kamen Rider Gaim Lockseed Set includes:
The last three Lockseeds listed have never been released as DX previously.
This set is scheduled to release in February 2022 for 13,422 yen via Premium Bandai.
While it has not been announced as to being released in North America, it is safe to assume this set, like each set before it, will be offered via North American specialty retailers with Bluefin Brands.
The next set of Kamen Rider Gaim Complete Selection Modification Lockseeds is coming and this time it is the Kureshima Lockseed Set, which will undoubtedly contain Lockseeds for both Kamen Rider Zangetsu and Kamen Rider Ryugen.
Of note – the teaser image for the Kureshima Lockseed Set is Kamen Rider Zangetsu in his Kachidoki Arms form – a form that was first featured on a stage show and later in the Kamen Rider Fan Club exclusive Gaim Gaiden story released a few months back. Its inclusion will mark the first time any roleplay items for this form have been released (only a S.H. Figuart has been released).
The set will begin pre-orders via Premium Bandai Japan on April 6th. While as of yet to be announced, we assume Team Kamen Rider and Bluefin Brands will also carry this item. More details on the 6th!
We’re extremely excited to announce that our friends at Tokullectibles have become our site sponsor here at TokuNation. As toy collectors ourselves, we’ve made many purchases through Tokullectibles. They are leaders in the toku collecting community – welcome Tokullectibles!

The second Lock Seed/Accessory set for the CSM Kamen Rider Gaim series is here – Team Baron! The details have also been shared as we get our first official look at the redesigned Energy Lock Seeds. Of note is the inclusion of the “Power Down” sound effect in the Energy Lock Seeds which was included in the original DX toys but was incredibly difficult to get to activate.
The set includes:
The designer blog of this set mentions that while the blank face plate is virtually the same as included int he Project Ark version, this one specifically is for Kamen Rider Knuckle and will have sound effects for his Rider whereas the one in Project Ark is designed for the Kurokage Trooper and will have different sound effects. Check out the designer blog here.
This set is scheduled for release July 2021.
