Just in case you missed it it, Bandai announced that the ever-popular Kamen Rider Black was joining theS.H. Figuarts Shinkocchou Seihou Kamen Rider Black line on the recent cover of Figure-Oh Magazine, and Tamashii’s offical web page was recently updated with a plethora of images for this upcoming release as well as some product info!
S.H.Figuarts Shinkocchou Seihou Kamen Rider Black will be released at general retail in April 2021 retailing for 7,700 yen.
The latest issue of Figure-Oh magazine has just been released, and gracing the cover is the surprise announcement of an S.H. Figuarts Shinkocchou Seihou Kamen Rider Black! We’ll bring you more information about this reveal as it comes, and the figure is surely to be on show at the Tamashii Nations 2020 event in a few weeks’ time!
Just ahead of the Tamashii Nations 2020 event due to take place between 6th and 8th November, Bandai have announced S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Zero-One Realizing Hopper as a sneak preview! Based on the titular Rider’s appearance during his showdown with Kamen Rider Horobi/Ark Scorpion in the show’s final episode, Realizing Hopper features a slightly altered deco and also comes with the Realizing Hopper Progrise Key and a designated display stand. This is a commemorative item for the event, so is only available for a limited time.
The figure will retail for 3300 yen and release April 2021, with the preorders open from the 6th to the 9th November.
ROCKIN’ HOPPER!
We first caught wind of S.H.Figuarts Kamen Rider Ichigata at the last digital Tamashii Features event and Bandai is finally gearing up to release this bad boy out in the wild, with a new pre-order page dedicated to this figure just went live.
Reservations for S.H.Figuarts Kamen Rider Ichigata will begin October 16th, 2020 and he’ll be released in April 2021 alongside the previously revealed Metal Cluster Hopper figure. Ichigata will retail for 6,600 yen.
LET’S RISE!
A new addition joins the ever-growing lineup of S.H.Figuarts figures from last year’s Kamen Rider Zero-One, and as the title suggests it is none other than S.H.Figuatts Kamen Rider Zero One Metal Cluster Hopper!
S.H.Figuarts Kamen Rider Zero-One Metal Cluster Hopper was recently announced as a P-Bandai web exclusive. Reservations will begin October 16, 2020, and the figure will finally ship out April 2021. The figure will retail for 7,480 yen and is shown to include the Progrise Hopper Blade as part of his accessories.
“This’ll be Kurenai’s debut battle.”
It is the Summer of Training. And while mentoring Todoroki’s inconsistent practice of the Taiko drum, and even bestowing the Ongekibou to both Todoroki & Ibuki, Kamen Rider Hibiki furiously trains himself. Faster, stronger, hotter. Burning brighter than he ever has before, Hibiki must master the rhythm of his core and burn like fire! Without it, the deadly Dorotabou will continue to multiply, wreaking havoc on the local villages. With an inferno of strength raging in his heart, Hibiki explodes into a new form, Kamen Rider Hibiki Kurenai!
Hibiki Kurenai is the first new figure that Kamen Rier Hibiki himself has received in the 6 years since his original S.H. Figuarts Shinkocchou Seihou release. And explosive is the best descriptor for. A gorgeous redeco of the base Hibiki mold, this fiery repaint brings all the articulation hallmarks of this line with it. But more than that it comes armed with a vast array of accessories and weapons like the Disc Animals, Onkaku, Ongekibou and the Onizume! As the 5th release in the Hibiki Seihou line, what can we expect next of the Oni Riders?

After the double reveal of Shinkocchou Seihou releases last month for Kuuga’s Pegasus & Dragon Forms, we now have official confirmation that the next Kuuga release following them is in development! In an S.H. Figuarts blog post taking a detailed look at these upcoming releases, Tamashii Nations have officially confirmed they’re moving forward with producing Kamen Rider Kuuga Titan Form as well!
Currently we have only this confirmation and the accompanying images, but we’re eagerly awaiting release info for this figure as well. After completing the circle of Kuuga’s 4 basic forms, is the next step for Bandai going to be giving us the Rising versions of Dragon, Pegasus, & Titan to compliment the previously released Rising Mighty? For now release information hasn’t been revealed for this release, but when it is we’ll update this story with it.
“My name is Fuma. I arrive with the wind of the galaxy!”
After many teases, Bandai is gearing up to release the last of the Tri-Squad; Bandai just recently updated the Tamashii Nations Blog , with some additional photos for the upcoming S.H.Figuarts Ultraman Fuma action figure.
From the photos, we can see that he’ll include effect pieces for his LightWave Shuriken but at this moment, no other release info was given.
Pre-orders will begin on September 11th, 2020, so be sure to check back with us then for further updates on this exciting new figure.
Not to be outdone by the reveals of the Shinkocchou Seihou Kuuga’s today, we’ve also got fresh reveals of 3 new Tamashii Nations 2020 exclusives!
Everyone’s favorite Ultra (who’s commemorating his 10th anniversary) Ultraman Zero, will be receiving an S.H. Figuarts Special Color Version release for the event. Decked out in metallic paint applications and including a specialized Tamashii stage, this release will retail for 5500 yen.
Next up is the event exclusive release from Kamen Rider Zero-One! After Shining Assault Hopper was revealed earlier this year, the question remained whether or not the infrequently seen standard Shining Hopper would be released as well. Look no further than this Tamashii Nations exclusive of S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Zero-One Shining Hopper! This figure will retail for 6000 yen.
And last but not least, Tamashii Nations is reaching into the past for this special release. Commemorating their own Tamashii Nations 2014 S.I.C. exclusive as well as the even older Tamashii Festival 2011 S.H. Figuarts exclusive is the brand new S.H. Figuarts Shinkocchou Seihou Kamen Rider OOO TaMaShii Combo for Tamashii Nations 2020! This special OOO form melds the powers of Ankh’s Taka Core Medal, with Momotaro’s Imagin Medal, and the Shocker core medal to create the living logo of Tamashii Nations! This release retails for 6500 yen.
Tamashii Nations is scheduled for Q4 2020 and as usual is likely to be held in October or November. As event exclusives these 3 releases will be a bit more difficult to come by than the average web exclusive, but they are likely to be released later as lottery items via Tamashii Web as well. As official images are release we’ll be sure to share them with the community.
“Cho Henshin!”
When Yuusuke Godai had to adapt to fight the more powerful Grongi attacking human kind, the Arcle unlocked more of the ancient powers of Kuuga! Now after quite a while since the last Kuuga release in the Shinkocchou Seihou subline, Tamashii Nations is giving us a double dose of the hero who protects smiles.
Set for release in February 2021 are two new additions to the Kuuga lineup with Kamen Rider Kuuga Dragon Form & Kamen Rider Kuuga Pegasus Form! This pair of S.H. Figuarts Shinkocchou Seihou releases are coming out at the same time, both as Tamashii Web Exclusives, and are priced at 6000 yen each. That’s quite the month for rider collectors. Official images have yet to be released for either figure, but we’ll update this article when they are.
