The DX JikkuDriver & DX RideWatch Holder are currently scheduled for release in September 2018!

In a surprising announcement for the rapidly-winding-down Kamen Rider Build series, a new Rider Form has been unveiled!

Fan-favorite supporting character Kamen Rider Grease will abandon the now-obsolete Sclash Driver and combine a Build Driver with the newly-completed Blizzard Knuckle to transform into Kamen Rider Grease Blizzard! This blue repaint of Greases’ original suit includes a Robot SMASH arm as main weapon, granting Grease the power to stand against Evolto in the final battles.

But Kamen Rider Grease may not be the ONLY Build Rider receiving a last-minute change! The same scans also hint at a new form for Kamen Rider Mad Rogue to be revealed in an as-yet-unannounced Hyper Battle Video.

What other surprises could Kamen Rider Build have in store for its final act? Stay tuned to TokuNation for further details!

As Kamen Rider Build approaches its final episodes, new merchandise has come to light. Premium Bandai is set to release the DX Last Pandora Panel White, Last Pandora Panel Black, and Black Lost Bottles Set. These items play a prominent role in the later episodes, with the Black Lost Bottles being an important plot point. While the Pandora Panels are just repaints of the original Pandora Panel, two of the Lost Bottles are only obtainable in this set- the Hasami (Scissors) and Spanner Lost Bottles. While collectors may already have a majority of these Lost Bottles in their original silver and purple color scheme, this black and gold set is a perfect opportunity to obtain the ones that are harder to find, such as Kuwagata and CD. 

The set is now available for preorder, priced at 8640 yen with a January 2019 release date.

At long last the full merchandise catalog for the next Kamen Rider series has been revealed- detailing the powers and abilities of Kamen Rider Zi-O!

*Both Zi-O and the counterpart Kamen Rider Gates use the Jikan Driver to henshin. This Driver uses a primarily digital display and changes format depending on Zi-O’s attacks- the most powerful move is listed as FINISH TIME.

*The Riders gain new powers from the RideWatches– small items with the faces of past Kamen Riders! These can be stored in the RideWatch Holder or compiled in the RideWatch Dizer for a combination attack! The RideWatches are not limited only to past Kamen Riders- some watches actually represent ITEMS from past shows, including the Suika Arms from Kamen Rider Gaim. The first catalog covers ALL Heisei-era Kamen Riders!

*By using the RideWatches, Kamen Rider Zi-O & Kamen Rider Gates will obtain armor based on a previous Kamen Rider design. The first configurations shown in the Rider Kicks action figure line show Kamen Rider Ghost, Kamen Rider Ex-Aid, Kamen Rider Fourze, Kamen Rider OOO & Kamen Rider Decade!

*Zi-O’s signature weapon is the Jikan Gilade– a sword that becomes a gun. Meanwhile, Gates is armed with the Jikan Zax– a crossbow that turns into an axe. A third weapon known as the Ride HeiSaber is also on display, which channels the powers of past Kamen Riders for attacks.

*Kamen Rider Zi-O’s motorcycle is known as the Ride Striker and is summoned from a unique RideWatch.

*Last but CERTAINLY not least, Kamen Rider Zi-O has a giant Mecha! Known as the Time Majin, this robo will change forms & attacks based on what RideWatch is equipped.

Kamen Rider Zi-O is currently scheduled to begin on September 2 2018! Stay tuned to TokuNation between now & then as we keep you up to date on this exciting new Rider series!

In case you missed it, Kamen Rider Zi-O had it’s big showing a just a few days ago with the first round of toy catalog scans have appeared online. At the time of the posting, only the Gashapon scans were available to us but J-Hero.com posted a potential list for the first quarter DX Toy releases.

While J-Hero claims that this list was provided to him by a vendor, we have no way of proving if this list is legitimate or not so, for now, please do take this bit of news with a grain of salt, and as always: stay tuned to Tokunation and we’ll provide you with more updates on this as it becomes available.

While they never officially announced the the Power Rangers Zeo Legacy Super Zeo Gems, the listing was discovered (and shared) with us via Amazon.com earlier this year. Today on Twitter, Bandai America responded to @PowerRangerTalk stating: “Yeah this one unfortunately isn’t happening anymore. Again, with the changeover a lot of things have been thrown into limbo/taken off the table. The good news is, there are still a few items up our sleeve that we haven’t announced yet that we’re extremely excited about!”.

However, they do have some surprises left in store for the Power Rangers line before Hasbro takes over in Spring 2019. Stay tuned for more news and information from Bandai America here at TokuNation!
