“Superchange!”

We’re doubling up with yet another retro gallery for this years’ Toku Toy Box! For last years giveaway we took a look at the impressive Superchange DX Kabutack set, and this year we’re following up with Kabutack’s friend and ally, Superchange Kuwajiro!

Kuwajiro, like Kabutack, features an interesting and fun SD style Normal Mode, but by way of the Superchange gimmick can assume the more heroic Super Mode! Each figure in this line features the two, but perhaps Kuwajiro’s are the most similar. While he’s certainly not the most dynamic figure in the line, like everyone else he still has quite the charm to him. And thanks to his included Hasamic Cutter he packs a little bit of heat to make up for it.

We’ve attached a selection of images to this post but you can see the entire 40 image gallery by clicking “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post. We’ll be back in two days with yet another gallery for Toku Toy Box!

“T-Rex Zord, it’s time for battle!”

Toku Toy Box continues today with TokuNation.com’s first official look at product from the 2017 Power Rangers Movie! With Movie toys having just hit stores in recent weeks we finally ran across the Movie T-Rex Battle Zord out in the wild and figure, what better time to do a full gallery & review!

The T-Rex Battle Zord is a behemoth toy. As a part of the colossal Movie Megaord, it’s no surprise that this figure makes up the bulk of it’s mass. Contributing the chest/upper torso, arms, cannon, tail whip/sword, and part of the wings, the T-Rex has a lot to offer. But the majority of it’s play value right now comes from it’s dino mode. Without the other 4 zords on the market, the T-Rex is more fun as a T-Rex. With pressure firing missile launchers, an electronic cannon with phrases & sounds effect, and a really neat mini pilot feature, the T-Rex Battle Zord is a great entry point to this line for fans.

We’ve attached a selection of images to this post but feel free to check out the complete  60+ image gallery after the jump. Just click, “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post. We’ll be back in two more days with another Toku Toy Box gallery!

under Power Rangers

Thanks to sieunhanvietnam, a poster at RangerBoard, we have some new items listed under the Legacy Power Rangers line. The online store The Falcon’s Hangar has put up some already-known and yet-to-be-revealed new Legacy Power Rangers items listed online. Check out the list below.

  • 12″ Legacy MMPR Red Ranger with spandex
  • 6.5″ Legacy Dino Thunder Red, Blue Rangers (part of the Zeo wave 1 of Legacy figures due in mid-late 2017)
  • Legacy Power Sword
  • Legacy Black and Gold Titanus
  • Legacy MMPR gold coin set
  • Legacy MMPR silver coin set (called “Movie Edition”)

There are no official product images for these items so there’s not much to show. It has been rumored heavily that the Power Rangers Dino Thunder figures would be part of the Power Rangers Zeo wave of Legacy 6.5″ figures and this is as close to a confirmation as we will get before Toy Fair 2017. Join in the discussion – are you going to grab these new figures? And what’s this 12″ Spandex Legacy Red Ranger all about?!

“Magnet Change!”

We’ve returned with another retro gallery from one of my favorites toylines ever for Toku Toy Box! That of Tetsuwan Tantei Robotack! You may recall that last December the inaugural gallery in this series was the shows’ lead character Robotack, well today we’re taking a look at his companion and equally awesome super robot, Magnet Change Kamerock! For a broader explanation of the series itself, feel free to read through my previous Robotack gallery linked to above.

Kamerock is yet another wonderful example of one of my favorite toylines. With the Magnet Change/ジシャックチェンジ gimmick on full display when using another figure in the line, you can see just how addictive it is. Kamerock is a Wonder Turtle type robot with a pretty innocent looking Normal Mode, but a beefy bruiser of a Super Mode. You can see how he interacts with his companion Robotack, in the full gallery below.

We’ve attached a selection of images to this post, but you can view the full 40 image gallery by clicking “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post. We’ll be back in 2 days with another new gallery for Toku Toy Box!

Our good friend and site contributor baltmatrix has posted up a video review comparing the recently released Power Rangers Ninja Steel Megazord to Shuriken Sentai Ninninger’s DX ShurikenJin!

“Ganbare Robocon!!”

It’s time for another overdue trip down memory lane! In the past we here at TokuNation have shown you some truly odd & interesting figures from Tokusatsu history. Kamen Rider, Metal Heroes, and even some one-off toku shows that are no more. Today we’re taking a look at a vintage piece from the classic 1999 series Moero Robocon with DX Slotroid 01 Robocon!

Moero Robocon is actually a reboot of the even older 1974 original series Ganbare Robocon. Technically, Moero Robocon even serves as the final entry in the long running Metal Hero series (more on that in the full review). But enough about the show, here’s the toy! DX Robocon was an innovative figure for it’s time. Robocon featured a built in electronic minigame that allowed him to physically interact with another figure in the line as well a special “super mode” transformation. This diminutive robot is definitely more fun that you’d initially think.
