Now, count up your sins!

Following the successful release of S.H.Figuarts Shinkocchou Seihou Kamen Rider Skull(A full Gallery of whom you can see by making the jump here). Bandai’s gone ahead and teased the next entry into their popular sub-line: we have our first look at S.H.Figuarts Shinkocchou Seihou Kamen Rider W Fang Joker!

Unfortunately, no other release info was given at this time other than it’ll be released sometime in 2018. The article does mention that the figure will be on display at the December 1st Tamashii Nations event so stay tuned and we’ll bring you more info as it becomes available.

“Ore, Sanjou!”

Rumors are circulating that in the next few weeks, at Tamashii Nations 2017, we could see a Shinkocchou Seihou release for Kamen Rider Den-O. The original Sword Form figuart itself was released over 5 years ago as well. With Tamashii Nations making headway through the backlog of Heisei Riders receiving this treatment Den-O very likely could be next. In light of these rumors we’ve decided to take a look back at my namesake with a brand new and up to date gallery of S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Den-O Sword Form!

Den-O Sword Form may be a bit of an older release, but you know what it still has a lot of charm despite the faults we can recognize today. Serving as the first nice 1/12 scale collector figure for Den-O, it set the bar for the numerous releases that would follow it. Den-O was packed out with accessories as well including two forms for the Dengasher, a set of Full Charge effect parts, a Rider Pass, multiple sets of hands and even a set of swap out hip holsters. Mold flaws aside, Den-O Sword Form was a great release for it’s time. But if we indeed are looking at the prospect of a Shinkocchou Seihou release in the near future, I welcome it.

We’ve assembled a full 120 image gallery of S.H. Figuarts Den-O Sword Form. The entire gallery is attached to this post but you can also read through an extensive review of the figure by clicking “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post. We’ll check back in a couple weeks with news from Tamashii Nations 2017, wheter there’s a Seihou Den-O or not.

Mark your calenders folks, December 1st 2017 will be when Bandai holds a Tamashii Nations event, the event’s web site was just updated with a collection of logos from various series that will be receiving a major announcement at the event.

Amongst those series, the two that are relevant to us are Kamen Rider Den-O and Kamen Rider Black RX. With this year being the anniversary of Kamen Rider Den-O, the announcement of a Seihou Den-O Sword form seems likely. The announcement of an S.H.Figuarts Kotoaro Minami seems very likely as well as a possible Seihou release for  Black RX himself. Of course, this is all speculative as nothing has been announcent on an offical level as of yet.

None the less, tune back with us on December 1st and we’ll bring up to date info as it becomes available. In the meantime, make the jump and join our speculation discussion!

“Now, count up your sins.”

In the city of Fuuto, legendary heroes called Kamen Riders protect the citizens from monstrous villains. The first of their kind set the bar very high for what it meant to be a hero, a detective, a mentor, and a man. Defending his city Soukichi Narumi created a legacy of heroism for the next generation to follow as Kamen Rider Skull. Now after years of waiting Bandai has finally given this legendary detective the renewal treatment he deserves with S.H. Figuarts Shinkocchou Seihou Kamen Rider Skull!

Seihou Skull is the 4th release we’ve gotten for this series so far (W, Accel, Hardboilder) and it really is a fantastic one. Utilizing the incredible Seihou W body, this release gives us everything we could want and more for Skull. Multiple display options allow you to turn this figure into 1 of 3 versions of the character; Skull Crystal, Skull, & Impostor Skull. A functioning Lost Driver with Skull Memory as well as an interactive Skull Magnum, numerous hands, two fedoras, two scarves, even a dummy W Driver & Case to re-create Begins Night! Seihou Skull is an all inclusive release sure to please any fan of Kamen Rider W.

“Gun!”

It took a mighty 4-player Co-Op effort to initially defeat the powerful Bugster Graphite. Using the Level 5 Gashat Drago Knight Hunter Z, Ex-Aid and the other doctor Riders were each granted a portion of it’s power & armor. Thus the Dragon Gun was inherited by Kamen Rider Snipe! Eventually though Taiga would come master the powers of this Gashat on his own. For now we see how well Tamashii Nations has tamed this wild power with a new gallery of S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Snipe Hunter Shooting Gamer Level 5!

Snipe Level 5 is a mold you’ve seen before. Largely unchanged from the original Snipe Level 2 release, Level 5 swaps out the left side limbs for the Drago Knight Hunter Z armor, granting Snipe the powerful Dragon Gun. While these parts are largely unchanged from their outing with Ex-Aid Level 5, Snipe can make full use of this arms’ articulation unlike Ex-Aid. This go around we also have the inclusion of 7 unique word bubble effect parts to spruce up your Ex-Aid display or a battle scene! A few of which are different from those included with Brave Level 5, whom this figure pairs perfectly with.

We’ve attached the full 60+ image gallery to this post, but you can also read up on our full review of this figure by clicking “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post. We’ll be back soon with a new gallery from Kamen Rider W!

As each year passes, we reflect on how we are currently missing out on a big part of collecting- Sentai Figuarts. With only a few teams released, and not many of them even complete, the only way to even get some made is to commission someone to make them or make them yourself. This month for Customs Corner, we take a look at a customizer with an affinity for Red Rangers/Red Senshi, Red5/ReddoFive! One of our own members here on the forum, he makes Red Ranger/Red Senshi Figuarts, creating Reds from both past and current teams, such as Ninja Red and AkaNinger.

“Blade!”

It took a mighty 4-player Co-Op effort to initially defeat the powerful Bugster Graphite. Using the Level 5 Gashat Drago Knight Hunter Z, Ex-Aid and his allies were each granted a portion of it’s power and a piece of it’s armor. Thus the Dragon Blade was inherited by Kamen Rider Brave! Eventually though Hiro would come master the powers of this Gashat on his own. For now we see how well Tamashii Nations has tamed this wild power with a new gallery of S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Brave Hunter Quest Gamer Level 5!

Brave Level 5 is a mold you’ve seen before. Largely unchanged from the original Brave Level 2 Quest Gamer release, Level 5 swaps out the right side limbs for the Drago Knight Hunter Z armor, granting Brave the large Dragon Blade. While these parts are largely unchanged from their outing with Ex-Aid Level 5, Brave can make full use of this arms articulation unlike Ex-Aid. This go around we also have the inclusion of 7 unique word bubble effect parts to spruce up your Ex-Aid display or a battle scene!

We’ve attached the full 60+ image gallery to this post, but you can also read up on our full review of this figure by clicking “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post. We’ll be back soon with another new figure from Kamen Rider Ex-Aid as well as a long awaited renewal from Kamen Rider W!

“Change, Punch Hopper!”

Shun Kageyama had humble beginnings with ZECT under his mentor Sou Yaguruma/TheBee. When Yaguruma fell from grace, Kageyama rose to power, but proved too weak to maintain it. Left a shattered man he was pulled back from the depths of his failures once again by Yaguruma. Kageyama’s mentor had been reborn as Kamen Rider Kickhopper, now he himself lives his own second life as Kamen Rider Punch Hopper. Together they walk their own path, to hell.

Recently we took a look at Shinkocchou Seihou Kickhopper, and as with most any release from this line I was very impressed. So it’s no surprise that mold mate Punch Hopper is also an absolute pleasure. Punch Hopper once again takes an excellent renewal mold and puts it to good use. The only new difference with this release is the arm mounted Anchor Joint weapon, but it’s executed just as well as Kickhopper’s ankle mounted one.

We’ve attached the full 80 image gallery to this post, but you can also click “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post to be taken to the full review. We’ll be back soon with a new pair of Kamen Rider Ex-Aid galleries as well!
