Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeehaw!

Premium Bandai’s in house Super Sentai Artisan line continues with a new dual release! Today we get to take a look at the recently released Artisan Rodeomaru & Chouzetsu Akaninger 2-pack!

Rodeomaru & Akaninger are of course both new high end replacements for their DX counterparts. Rodeomaru offers a splendid new accurate robot mode with a healthy amount of die-cast metal or “gokin” parts thrown in for good measure. He also includes some replacement arms and shoulders to help recreate his combination with DX Bison King. And much like the previously released Artisan Shinobimaru he also included a to-scale Starninger figure!

Chouzetsu Akaninger on the other hand is a tiny yet articulated alternative to the figure included with DX Lion Ha Oh. While there are no metal parts present in this mini-figure, he does manage to include his Ninja Ichibantou as well as 2 adapter pieces to allow him to function with Lion Ha Oh.

But we also kicked the month of with a massive review for Shuriken Sentai Ninninger!

under Super Sentai

The official Bandai B-Boys website has jut updated with it’s October offerings, and that means it’s time for a brand new official image dump! First up on the list is the DX Gekiatsu Dai-Oh from Shuriken Sentai Ninninger!

DX Gekiatsu Dai-Oh is a brand new 6-piece mecha formed by all 6 Ninningers. The epitome of Takaharu getting “fired up” this set offers a new uniform color scheme not typically present in combiners of this nature, and is unified by flame detailing. DX Gekiatsu Dai-Oh will be released on October 10th!

Lion Henge!

We’re back with yet another fired up gallery & review from Shuriken Sentai Ninninger! This time we take a look at the massive Sky Otomonin himself, DX Lion Ha Oh!

Unusually for a toy of it’s nature, Lion Ha Oh is not the final toy to be released in this line as we still have the 6-piece Gekiatsu Dai Oh coming up. However Lion Ha Oh still falls into the category of the big but largely hollow Q3/Q4 releases with multiple forms:

  • Lion Ha Ojo– the rolling castle/tank
  • Lion Ha Oh– the unique robot mode form
  • Ha Oh Shurkenjin– A massive combination that incorporates all the primary components of DX Shurikenjin & Bison King

Included for use with any of these 3 forms is also a fun little Chouzetsu Akaninger figure that’s roughly the size of a Bandai America Ranger Key. We’ve got some comparisons with other similarly sized figures as well. Lion Ha Oh itself is larger though, so large that size comparisons really don’t do it justice. Scroll through our gallery to check out how it dwarfs and absorbs DX Shurikenjin.

Ultimately DX Lion Ha Oh will be the make or break figure in the line for many collectors simply due to it’s shear size & cost, but we welcome you to check out our complete 60+ image gallery to make that decision for yourself! Wasshoi!

Wasshoi!

At long last TokuNation is fired up to present this latest gallery! A recent Bandai Premium release from Shuriken Sentai Ninninger, today we take an extensive look at the Super Sentai Artisan Chogokin Shinobimaru!

Chogokin Shinobimaru is Bandai Premium’s first entirely new figure for Ninninger, soon to be followed up by Rodeomaru & Chouzetsu Akaninger. More than a simple DX with metal parts like last years’ Chogokin ToQ Oh, Shinobimaru is an entirely new super articulated diecast infused action figure meant to replace the DX that came with Shurikenjin. While it may be lacking a bit in the accessories department (a small shoulder mounted Akaninger) it more than makes up for this with excellent articulation, strong QC, and just the perfect amount of metal to give this little guy some heft.

Make no mistake when we say extensive either, we’ve put together 70 images of Super Sentai Artisan Chogokin Shinobimaru for your viewing pleasure! We’ve even included a comparison between Shinobimaru and the classic release Soul of Chogokin Battle Fever Robo, the predecessor to all modern Sentai Chogokins. Attached to this post are just a small selection of the images, to view them all click “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post.

Washoi! The dinosaur Otomonin joins the fray in this years theatrical film Shuriken Sentai Ninninger The Movie: The Dinosaur Lord’s Splendid Ninja Scroll. And not to be left out on the toy side of the things, a special “EX” release has just hit retail for this new ally to the Ninningers with DX Dinomaru!

EX DX Dinomaru is a pretty wild toy. From the ground up this figure is a remold & repaint of the previously released DX Paonmaru, bet you never thought Bandai could get an elephant and a T-Rex out of the same like that? Sharing much of the same transformation as his mold mate, Dinomaru still manages to be new and creative, bringing his own charm to combining with Shurkenjin to form Shurikenjin Dino!

Before you check out our complete gallery be sure to check out the video below to see a full review of EX DX Dinomaru from friend & site contributor baltmatrix!

A few months ago when Artisan Rodeomaru went up for order via Premium Bandai, we were also given a tease of an Artisan release for Chouzetsu Akaninger. Not only do we now know this figure is a pack-in bonus with Artisan Rodeomaru, but we also have official images!

Artisan Chouzetsu Akaninger stands 65mm tall (about 2.5 inches) compared to Rodeo & Shinobimarus’ roughly 125 mm. So he’s quite tiny. But this fully articulated mini-figure serves as a high end replacement for your DX Akaninger included with Lion Ha Oh. The figure includes just 3 accessories as well. The Ninja Ichibantou, and what appear to be a couple of panels that currently serve an unknown purpose. Perhaps they facilitate his combination with Lion Ha Oh? We’ll keep you updated as more information on this diminutive new figure comes out!

The set of Rodeomaru & Chouzetsu Akaninger retails for 5994 yen and is currently set for a December release!

In just 1 week this years pairing of summer films, Shuriken Sentai Ninninger The Movie: The Dinosaur Lord’s Splendid Ninja Scroll & Kamen Rider Drive Surprise Future, will be released in Japanese theaters. As such the related toys for each film are set to be released soon, and new official images have given us the best look yet at them.

For Ninninger we have DX Otomonin EX Dinomaru. This remold of Paonmaru is of course the movie exclusive mecha for this year in the same vein as Safari Ga Oh, Tobaspino, FS0O Frog, and a host of other toys. This figure will be released on August 8th to coincide with the film and retails for 4104 yen.

For Kamen Rider Drive we have a bit of a surprise! Not only will this years movie henshin device set include those used by Drive in the film, the DX Shift Next/Special Car & Tridoron Key, but a third item is also in the mix. And it’s the DX Newton Eyecon from Kamen Rider Ghost! This set will be released a bit later this month, August 29th, for 2160  yen.
