It’s time for another episode of the Talkin Toku Podcast! After a brief, unplanned hiatus, Kickback/Chris, Den-O/Jordan, and Sentai Tamashii/Tom are back to discuss all things tokusatsu!

The boys start the show off by discussing the revelations of Shuriken Sentai Ninninger and quickly morph themselves in to a deep conversation about Ressha Sentai ToQGer and whether or not TeiOh (the final mech from the show and toy line) is the final culmination of everything wrong with the show and the toy line.

The boys then discuss the Tamashii Nations Event – the things they can’t wait for, the things they were surprised to see, their favorite toku and non-toku item of the show. Can you guess before you listen which item each host is eagerly anticipating? We bet you can’t!

Jordan and Tom discuss everything Kamen Rider Drive from the premiere to current while Chris disappears to eat dinner. Do they like the show? Dislike the show? Does it compare to Kamen Rider Gaim? Should it even be compared? Listen in and find out!

On to a serious topic – the revelation of the USA edition of the Tamashii Web Shop, meaning items only available from middlemen in the past may be ordered direct on the US side from the shop. If it comes to that, what does that mean for Bluefin Tamashii Nations? The guys get in to a very deep conversation about Bluefin Tamashii Nations, Bluefin Distro Group, Bandai Japan, Bandai of America, and even bring in the world of Transformers to make their case for the conversation. If you’ve ever had an interest in some of the inside workings of why certain toys are released or why their colors don’t match up to their source material, listen to this segment!

The show ends with the guys discussing what’s coming next for TokuNation.com as well as some Halloween moments as Chris and Tom dressed up as Power Rangers for the festivities. We also announce our annual Toku Toy Box giveaway – you don’t want to miss this year’s stuff!!

Bad news for those of you collecting the S.H. Figuarts line of characters for the popular Kamen Rider Gaim series. Normally, exclusives from these type of events show up as Tamashii Web Exclusives a month or two after said event is over. But it would appear that this time almost all the exclusives from the show will be available only as Lucky Draw items – basically super rare items.

The S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Baron Lemon Energy Arms figure is one of the said exclusives from this month’s Tamashii Nations Event that will be available only as a Lucky Draw item after the event. This means that unless you have purchased a pre-order from a few hobby shops attending the event, or have someone attending the event, you will be stuck looking on the secondary market for this item. It’s almost a guarantee that Mandarake will have the item pop up from time to time over the next few months, but the availability is not guaranteed in the slightest.

Best of luck to all those looking to complete this line with this new revelation.

Following the same pattern for the Legacy Dragonzord, it was announced today that the Legacy Tigerzord and Legacy Saba items will be exclusive to the A1 Toys store in the United Kingdom.

The good news? That these items are going to be available! The bad news? Well, our UK fans aren’t happy about the prices. Currently being listed at £89.99 for the Legacy Tigerzord, and a whopping £129.99 for the Legacy Saba. What are your thoughts? Sound off in our discussion thread linked to the article.

After what’s seemed like an eternity, the silence from Bandai of America following the Morphin Madness competition in March has been broken! In a surprise turn of events one of the 5 winners has found their prize pack waiting for them today!

Twitter user @CABAN81 was kind enough to post a shot of his prize. A fully Gold Deluxe Legendary Morpher! Though it was originally thought the winning rangers of the Morphin Madness competition would be made into a key set to be included with the Gold Legendary Morpher, it looks like Bandai changed things up. Instead the Gold Morpher comes packaged with a Super Megaforce Gold Ranger Key & Mighty Morphin Gold Ranger Key!! Each of these are of course repaints of their respective Red Ranger Keys but do they ever look awesome in gold!

Congrats again to @CABAN81 for his win in the Morphin Madness competition and our gratitiude for sharing this news with the fandom. Whoever the other 4 winners are, you should be expecting your prize packs soon!

Titanium Power!
Jungle beast, spirit unleashed!

TokuNation is back with another in our series of Titanium Powered galleries. But this time there’s a dose of something extra! With today’s gallery we take a look at the recently released Power Morphicon 2014 Exclusive Ranger Key Set! This set includes two of the most hotly demanded characters from Bandai’s Morphin’ Madness competition and in fact, these two went head to head in the final round. It’s Lightspeed Rescue’s Titanium Ranger & Jungle Fury’s Wolf Ranger!

 

This pair of keys was made to coincide with the Power Rangers Super Megaforce toyline and are entirely functional with the Legendary Morpher. When either key is used with the morpher the “Power Morphicon!” phrase is uttered and this special set is the only way to get either of these rangers in key form here in the US. Wolf Ranger, or rather his original counterpart Geki Violet, was released in the Gokaiger toyline some years back but the PMC exclusive is the only way to own an american version of the  key. Titanium Ranger however is a 100% original creation of the Power Rangers franchise! With no sentai counterpart he has never had a Ranger Key produced of him. So that makes this release truly special!

Check out a full 40 image gallery of this set after the jump by clicking “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post! Special thanks to site owner and admin Kickback for being awesome enough to pick this set up for me at PMC.

The second exclusive from Bandai of America for this year’s New York Comic Con has also been revealed on the Power Rangers Facebook Page and surprise! It’s another Mighty Morphin Green Ranger exclusive!

This figure (in non-metallic paint) was offered at this year’s San Diego Comic Con but will be available in limited quantities in metallic paint at this year’s New York Comic Con. Pricing has yet to be revealed nor has the number that will be available. If you’re a collector of these Tokyo Vinyl figures then this is probably on your list to pick up.
