 Who’s That Guy?

Why he’s the titular antagonist turned hero of Super Hero Tasien GP, and today we take a look at him in figure form as S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider 3! Rider 3 as a character originated in the 1972 Manga Kamen Rider 3 vs. General Black but his existence was largely forgotten for 40+ years until Taisen GP where the character was tweaked to create the modern version.

And wow is that a modernized suit! In essence Rider 3 looks to have the basic Showa Shin Rider 1/2 design as a base but with a pseudo-S.I.C. aesthetic draped over it. Producing a unique design that hearkens back to the days of the Kamen Rider The First & The Next films. Rider 3 manages to look angular and modern but has all the hallmarks of his Showa brethren allowing him to fit seamlessly into any Showa or Heisei display. With the inclusion of a couple just perfect effect parts you have a nice and tidy package of a figure that’s sure to please.

We’ve assembled over 50 images of S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider 3, though only a handful are attached to this post. To see the entire gallery and read up on our in depth review of the figure, click “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post.

This has been one great show this year! However the absence of Super Sentai figuarts & the smaller presence of Metal Heroes & other offbeat toku heroes is noticeable. So we’d like to know what are your thoughts on the showing from Bandai and Tamashii Nations this year? Sound off in our ongoing discussion of all the reveals from this show by clicking “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post.

Bandai has finally opened the show floor to the general public at Tamashii Nations 2015 and in doing so has released a series of their own hi-res images of their displays. First up is the entire S.H.

S.H. Figuarts:
Ghost Ore Damashii
Ghost Musashi Damashii
Ghost Edison Damashii

Change, 01!

TokuNation is back with the finale (for now) of it’s classic Showa Kikaider galleries! Kikaider 01 is finally complete with the S.H. Figuarts Double Machine!

Kikaider 01’s Double Machine is the successor to his brother the original Kikaiders’ Side Machine. A beast of a vehicle, the Double Machine dwarfs it’s predecessor and many other Figuarts bikes. It’s a big, beautifully sculpted and lavishly painted ride that will fit in perfectly with any Kiakider collection. So far the Double Machine is the final Kikaider release from Bandai in the S.H. Figuarts line but a number of other prototypes, primarily for Kikaider Reboot, have been shown off previously. So there is some hope that the line isn’t dead yet. But for now this is a magnificent send off for Kikaider fans.

We’ve attached a selection of images to this post but you can check out the full 25+ image gallery of the S.H. Figuarts Double Machine by clicking “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post. And please feel free to browse the previous Kikaider galleries we’ve posted!

People have asked for years about the generic bodied figures that Tamashii Nations has used in displays at various conventions. Well it looks like they need ask no more, as it appears a version of these figures will be made available to the general public!

The S.H. Figuarts Blank Bodies are just what the name implies. Blank slates with a full range of articulation and a wealth of accessories. These will be perfect bases for customizes to produce just about any male or female figure they choose. They even come in two different color options. The S.H. Figuarts Blank Bodies will be released in 4 varieties:

  • S.H. Figuarts Blank Body Gray Color DX (Male) – 6480 yen
  • S.H. Figuarts Blank Body Gray Color DX (Female) – 6480 yen
  • S.H. Figuarts Blank Body Pale Orange Color Version (Male) – 4320 yen
  • S.H. Figuarts Blank Body Pale Orange Color Version (Female) – 4320 yen

The DX sets in Gray will come with a plethora of accessories including 17 hands, a kitana, and even a unique Tamashii stage storage case. Meanwhile the Pale Orange sets will be cheaper and feature fewer accessories, each version only coming with 8 hands.

For those ambitious enough out there, and with the right skills, it looks like the gaps in your S.H. Figuarts collections may finally be filled with a little hard work!
