The Tokyo Toy Show 2017 is underway and the first set of images of the Bandai Japan booth are coming in! Check out the first in-hand images of the recently announced Super Sentai Artisan DX DaiRenOh. As you may or may not recall, the Super Sentai Artisan DX DaiRenOh is going to be a modernized release of the original DX DaiRenOh with added diecast, some new molding, and new paint. The Legacy Thunder Megazord is not being utilized. Stay tuned for more updates from Tokyo Toy Show 2017!
GOSEI GATTAI!
A few months ago, Bandai teased the release of the Super Sentai Artisan Dairen’Oh a pre order page has now gone live and with that, we have a plethora of new photos along with release details.
Rather than being a remold of the Legacy Thunder Megazord as previously speculated by some, the Super Sentai Artisan Dairen’oh is, in fact, a modified version of the original DX toy with some added paint apps and die cast parts.
All of this will cost a hefty amount retailing about 23,760 yen but won’t see a release till March 2018. The Lai-Lai Jewels while shown appears to be part of some sort of campaign give away and not included with the actual set.
CHANGE STANDBY, EMERGENCY! DEKARANGER!
P-Bandai’s finally opened up pre-orders for the Super Sentai Artisan SP License set, and of course, we now have production photos and release info to go along with that.
Included in this set is both the standard SP License and the Fire Squad version. In addition to that, the set will also include changeable cards representing each of the Rangers and a clip-on holster.
All of this will cost a hefty 17,712 yen for the set, but there will be an option to buy the two separately for 9,936 yen a piece. Either way, we’re looking at an October release window for the Super Sentai Artisan SP License.
EMERGENCY!
A surprising new entry for the Super Sentai Artisan collectors’ line has just been announced: the SP License used by the Special Police team Tokusou Sentai DekaRanger! The SP License device allows the DekaRangers to monitor Alienizer activity, communicate with team members and henshin into their Ranger forms.
This release will be available in two forms: the standard DekaRanger model and the updated Fire Squad License seen in supplemental materials!
Sadly, price and release details for this Artisan entry are unavailable at time of writing. Stay tuned to TokuNation for further details!
AURA POWER!
Next up on Super Sentai Artisan’s releases is the main mecha himself: Dairen’oh!
No further details on this release have been released as of this writing, though we can confirm that like previous releases in the line, Super Sentai Artisan Dairen’oh will be a P-Bandai exclusive.
The Premium Bandai website has just updated with new official images and pricing/release info for the highly anticipated Super Sentai Artisan Aura Change & Kiba Changer set! This impressive pair of releases is surprisingly sold together, we half expected Premium Bandai to sell them separately. Thankfully though when you contact your middleman to secure one of these magnificent pieces you’ll only need to do it once!
The Aura Changer & Kiba Changer set will be sold exclusively through the Premium Bandai site with a release in March 2017. Retail price for this set is a very reasonable 10, 584 yen. Confirmed features so far include newly recorded sounds for each changers’ electronics, the Kiba Changer also includes the necessary Kiba Emblem, cast entirely in diecast metal!
Are you as excited for this release as we are?? Let us know in the thread below!
Teased late last month we were expecting to see official images and details for this release on October 26th. But thanks to Figure Oh scans leaking a little earlier than expected we have our first look at two new upcoming Premium Bandai Products, The Super Sentai Artisan Aura Changer & Kiba Changer!
Thanks to an anonymous poster on 2chan the first image of this pair is currently making the rounds and WOW do they look great! We can almost hear the droves of Power Rangers fans out there who hope to see this item re purposed for the Magna Defenders morpher as the original DX toy was.
The Aura & Kiba Changers are headed for release in March 2017, presumably as a set for 10,584 yen. but we’ll have full release details and official images on October 26th.
We don’t have much to go on currently other than the cryptic teaser image attached to this article. But it appears the Premium Bandai subline of Super Sentai Artisan releases is about to add an item from Gosei Sentai Dairanger!
The teaser image provided simply says to check back with the Premium Bandai website on October 26th for the official reveal. Right now (given recent releases) our best guess is that this item will be a Super Sentai Artisan Aura Changer, with perhaps a Kiba Changer release down the line. Attentive Power Rangers fans will of course recognize the Aura Changer as the basis for the Magna Defender’s morpher from Power Rangers Lost Galaxy.
We’ll keep you up to date as new information and details become available for this upcoming Dairanger item!
