To celebrate the return of the Destroyer Of Worlds, Premium Bandai has announced a special new release of Kamen Rider Decade‘s signature henshin device- the DecaDriver!

Labeled as the Neo DecaDriver this new device is an upgrade on Kamen Rider Decade’s original powers now granting Tsukasa the ability to henshin into ALL Heisei-Era Kamen Riders; from Kamen Rider Kuuga to Kamen Rider Zi-O!

To properly channel these new abilities, the Neo DecaDriver includes Kamen Ride and Final Attack Ride cards for all Heisei Riders, along with Decade’s original Final Form Ride cards.

The DX Neo DecaDriver is currently scheduled for release in March 2019! The price is a very modest 9180 Yen before shipping and handling.

The upcoming release of the Super Sentai Artisan Degitaizer and Battleraizer from Denji Sentai Megaranger, better known as Power Rangers In Space for those of us who grew up with the Power Rangers, was originally scheduled to release in December of 2018. Unfortunately, due to what Bandai is calling a “production delay”, the item has been delayed with no current timetable for release.

It should be noted that the previous Super Sentai Artisan releases – specifically the SP License from Dekaranger and before that the Aura Changer from Dairanger – have suffered from quality control issues resulting in entire production run replacements.

The Super Sentai Artisan Degitaizer and Battleraizer had recently had payment requests go out. This is the first time an item this close to release has been delayed.

As the current holiday shopping season ramps up in to top gear, a non-profit children’s safety organization known as W.A.T.C.H. (World Against Toys Causing Harm) has listed their Top 10 Unsafest Toys for the 2018 Holiday Season. Gracing the list this year at Number 4 is none other than Power Rangers Super Ninja Steel, specifically the Superstar Blade roleplay item. As W.A.T.C.H. states in their description of the item:

HAZARD: POTENTIAL FOR BLUNT FORCE AND EYE INJURIES!

W.A.T.C.H. OUT! Young children are encouraged to “power up” with this “Super Ninja Steel” spring-loaded plastic blade, with the potential to cause facial and other impact injuries.

The roleplay item’s functionality is a spring loaded mechanism that shoots out a few inches. The organization’s fears stem from the fact that the item is a sword (meant to be swung at people) and that the spring loaded feature could inadvertently cause facial injury to the wielder.

TokuNation.com advises parents and collectors alike to use common sense when handling a children’s toy and if you purchase the item for your child to be a parent and explain how to, and how not to, play with it. Check out the full press release by clicking here.

The W and Deca Drivers will both retail for 7500 yen while the Buggle and Lost Drivers will cost 6500 yen a piece, an excellent alternative to those that may have missed out on these Belts the first time around or for new Kamen Rider fans looking to get their first one!

RIDER TIME!

Kamen Rider Zi-O’s first episode just debuted over the weekend. And while the Ziku Driver hasn’t been out for long, people in Japan have already figured out a way to hack the belt and as a result: new sounds have been discovered. The following sounds were found to exist inside the Driver courtesy of Crane Joe:

 

In addition, a diagram posted on Crane Joe’s blog shows which pins need to be pushed in order to activate what noises. Now it’s entirely possible that any one of these could end up becoming new Ride Watches or Riders entirely, but like the Drive Driver, a lot of these could end up not getting used so, for now, do take these with a grain of salt. In the meantime, stay tuned to Tokunation we’ll bring you more updates as they become available. There could be potential spoilers to these leaks, so please click the jump at your own risk.
