Try not to let the fantastic news about Kishiryu Sentai Ryusouger take your thoughts too far from our annual holiday giveaway. Toku Toy Box is headed back to the Armour Zone today with a ferocious new gallery of S.H. Figuarts Crow Amazon!

Given special permission to create a new Sigma Type, the 4C organization salvaged the remains of Iyu Hoshino, after her father’s deadly Amazon rampage. A weapon capable of defeating other Amazons, the only one other Sigma ever created was Jun Maehara AKA Kamen Rider Amazon Sigma. With Iyu’s rebirth, she gained strength and abilities far beyond most Amazons. While not a particularly extraordinary figure, Figuarts Crow feature’s some truly gorgeous sculpted details. Certainly more versatile than she first appears, Crow Amazon is a wonderful companion to Amazon Neo, or in fact any growing Amazons collection.

We’ve attached the full 40+ image gallery to this post but you can also read our full review by clicking “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post. Next time, we head to the windy city of Fuuto once again! And if you need a refresher on the rules of Toku Toy Box then give them a quick read.

“A transformation into a more mature style, perfect for formal occasions.”

The tradition of the Hyper Battle Video (and the rider forms exclusive to them) dates all the way back to Kamen Rider Kuuga, though that special did not feature an exclusive form for him. To this date none of the various HBV exclusive rider forms have ever had figuarts  produced of them and likely never will either. In a search to rectify that case for Kamen Rider Drive, I stumbled across a fantastic artist & customizer. @relgnadam on twitter. Thankfully relgnadam had actually already created the form I was looking for, and after some correspondence agreed to recreate one more time for me, S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Drive Type High Speed! For Toku Toy Box today we’re taking a look at this magnificent work of art in the full gallery below!

I’ve followed relgnadams blog for some time now, which you can find here, madangler blog. You may be familiar with some of his more recent projects such as re-creating Dark Drive’s future ride the NEXTridoron or his brilliant work recreating fully poseable Cronus robes. Relgnadam is a professional, and his work is a labor of love. He tirelessly recreates figures and vehicles down to the most minute detail, with absolute precision. I was ridiculously happy to be able to come to an agreement on the Type High Speed custom you see today, and having it in hand after a little over a year of anticipation, I am nowhere near disappointed.

We’ve attached the full 50+ image gallery of this impressive custom piece to this post, but you can also check out our review by clicking the link below.

In a couple days we’ll be back with another Toku Toy Box gallery, and this time, we’re headed back into the Armour Zone….

“Black Hazard! Oh no!”

Toku Toy Box is kicking off strong this year with a dangerous and deadly gallery from Kamen Rider Build!  An item of unmatched power, based upon something even more ancient and powerful, the Hazard Trigger was given to Sento Kiryu by Blood Stalk. Using it’s uncontrollable power, the black hazard, Kamen Rider Build Rabbit Tank Hazard Form emerges! For better or worse Sento must use this dangerous power to fight. Now we take a look at the Tamashii Nations 2018 event exclusive S.H. Figuart of this form!

A brilliant repaint and remold of the original Build Rabbit/Tank mold, Build Hazard is sleek and sexy. A form that gives off an aura of power and danger, Hazard Form is easily one of the best Build releases in the line so far. All of the same standard articulation from the original mold is back, but we get a really gorgeous and fierce new helmet design and some fantastic new shoulder pad designs. While Hazard includes a few hands for posing, the truly impressive accessories with this figure are the Hawk/Gattling Hazard Form parts! We get a new head, the Hawk Gattlinger weapon, and the Taka & Gattling Full Bottles. More Figuarts should come with swap out accessories such as this.

We’ve attached the full 80 image gallery of this impressive release to this post, but you can also check out our lengthy review by clicking the link below. Just click “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” to be taken to our full review thread! In a couple days we’ll be back with another Toku Toy Box gallery, and this time, it’ll be of a truly impressive custom figure we’ve been waiting over a year to share with you!

under Ultraman

Today Bandai Tamashii Nations revealed their pickup items due for release in April 2019, and among them is a highly awaited figure for Ultraman fans – S.H. Figuarts Ultraman Belial! Previously revealed via magazine scans and later unveiled at the Tamashii Nations 2018 event, this figure is based on the dark Ultra warrior’s standard Reionics form which he took after merging with Alien Rayblood.

S.H. Figuarts Ultraman Belial will be a general retail release in April 2019, with the price and full accessory count yet to be confirmed. What we do know however is that he will be packaged with his signature Giga Battle Nizer weapon. We’ll bring you more information on this figure as it comes, but in the meantime check out the full selection of images after the jump!

“So you think you have what it takes to obtain the legendary power?”
“The fact that I’m here is proof enough.”

A free but guilty man, Masamune Dan sought to take back his company, defeat his son, and discontinue those pesky Kamen Riders. Resilient to all strains of the Bugster virus, Masamune was uniquely worthy to obtain the power of the one meant to defeat Gamedeus. With the ability to Pause & Restart, Masamune would become Kamen Rider Cronus! But Taiga Hanaya was the first rider chosen to fight the Bugsters. And as Kamen Rider Snipe he saved countless lives. In order to stop Masamune’s final plot, Taiga exposed himself to Kamen Rider Chronicle and using his Gamer Driver and two Chronicle Gashats, he’ll take on Cronus as, Kamen Rider Cronus!?

S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Cronus is a bit of a unique release. While we all know Masamune Dan as the menacing Cronus with his ability to control time, Taiga also proved himself worthy of the power near the series finale and would even go on to use this power once more in the Another Ending Trilogy. This figure can represent either version of the suit! While it comes standard with Masamune’s Buggle Driver Zwei, an alternate Gamer Driver with Chronicle Gashats is included as well so to display the figure as Taiga! Will your own Cronus be the hero or the villain of your collection. I’m a sucker and I bought two of them!

“It’s time. Finally, I will become the god amongst all gods!”

In a bid to create the ultimate game Zombie Chronicle, and restore the data of all those lost to the Bugster Virus, Kuroto Dan has obtained the power of god. Using the God Maximum Mighty X Gashat, Kuroto ascends to become Kamen Rider GenM God Maximum Gamer, Level Billion! And this unique S.H. Figuart has quite a a history to it.

GenM Level Billion is an all new mold, and honestly a surprising release. It’s been a couple years since Ex-Aid aired, and despite this we’ve still yet to see a number of Ex-Aid’s forms in S.H. FIguarts. But Kuroto Dan’s massive popularity continues to drive new releases for him, including this one. A repaint of an Ex-Aid figure that actually has still yet to release! Level Billion is a big beefy, and surprisingly well articulated figure that shine’s with GenM’s personality. The included extra hands and Gashacon Key Slasher also compliment the figure nicely.

We’ve attached the full gallery to this article. but you can also read our full review with this figure’s interesting background by clicking “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post. Following up from what will for now be the last GenM gallery, next time we tackle his father, S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Cronus!

“Grade Zero.”

The mighty Kuroto Dan has returned! Evil CEO turned Dangerous Zombie, now the one true Game Master has returned as Bugster! Revived thanks to Poppy the new Kuroto has 99 lives and all the time in the world to seek revenge on Kamen Rider Para-DX as well as his father Masamune. Back from the dead, this is our gallery & review of S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider GenM Action Gamer Level 0!

GenM has made a couple outings in this line as Level 2, Level X, and even Level Billion at this point, but Level 0 is the first one to truly cash in on Kuroto’s massive popularity. A very minor repaint of Level 2, Level 0 includes a ton of new accessories like the Bug Visor Zwei, a God Kuroto Dan effect sheet, Life Point Counters, and even a Gashacon Breaker Blade. Even as similar as they are, this release does a fantastic job of setting itself apart. But is it really worth those Tamashii Web Exclusive dollars? Check out our gallery & review to find out!

The entire gallery is attached to this story, but you can also read our full review by clicking “Discuss on the TokuNaiton Forums” at the bottom of this post. Later this week we’re bringing Kuroto back one more time with a gallery of S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider GenM God Maximum Gamer Level Billion!

“Crocodile in Rogue!!”

Gentoku Himuro lusted for power and conquest as the monstrous Night Rogue. But undergoing savage trials at the hands of Utsumi Nariaki & Blood Stalk. Gentoku would be reborn. Cured of the Nebula Gas influence, Gentoku remembered what it meant to fight for his country. It was only a matter of time before his heart was free to fight for his people, and his father’s memory. Though he once struck fear into our heroes hearts, Gentoku would now fight for love and peace as the dangerous Kamen Rider Rogue!

S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Rogue is another really stylish addition to the ever growing family of Build Figuarts. It’s unique color scheme and design really do stand out with the other riders in the line. The first Crocodile rider, (though we have seen an Alligator before!) Rogue does an excellent job subtly showing off it’s theme from the clawed feet, to the “Cracked” helmet. Rogue includes his signature Nebula Steam Gun, Transteam Blade, and even the Hell Bros’ Gears. It’s honestly the full package.

“Best Match!”

Revealed yesterday during Tamashii Nations 2018, we now have our first clear images of S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Build Rabbit Dragon Form!

Originally under a photo ban with a variety of other items at the show, Build Rabbit Dragon can now be seen in all it’s golden & silver glory. An extensive repaint of the Rabbit Tank mold, with some new dragon parts courtesy of Cross-Z, this form represents the fusion of Sento & Banjou’s powers as seen *very* briefly in the series finale. Could something like this actually see release? Even as a limited web exclusive? I personally hope so, but time will tell.

As if the announcement of S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Kiva wasn’t enough to get you excited, Bandai had one more surprise in store as well! We knew of this item being displayed at the Tamashii Nations 2018 event, but weren’t able to see it because of the annual photo ban on certain items. Now, via SHFindo, we have our very first look at the S.H. Figuarts Machine Kivaa & Parts Set!

Kivaa is of course Kivaa’s stylish personal Rider Machine, and hot on the heels of Kiva’s own announcement, this is pretty exciting. Better still, it looks as though Bandai will be including the iconic Bloody Rose violin as well as the chair/throne Kiva is commonly seen seated in during the OP and in promotional material. While there are no confirmed release details for this set as of yet, one has to assume Bandai would be working on it with the Kiva hype at an all time high.
