Anways this legendary character from Toriyama's epic tale of DragonBall Z has come gracing the SH Figuarts-line. This wonderful SHF, thou has only a few minor flaws that can be over looked.

Rolling Review: SH Figuarts Iron Man Mk VI

SH Figuarts - Iron Man Mk VI (Iron Man 2)

Tony Stark is literally everywhere, as he and the Mark VI suit burst into the SHF line! All the way from Iron Man, the Mark VI comes with beautiful details and accessories. This molding based on the regular SHF body has most features similar to the Kamen Rider and Sentai molds. However, the Mk VI has its own new features like the missing wrist articulation and reverse ball jointed head. The Armored Avenger, is overall on of the most AMAZING SH Figuarts to date! And if you see ways differently, then I'll put the suit on and we'll go outside... I'm just sayin'!

Tamashii Nations Fall 2012: Ultra-Acts

Coming in quite late is the Ultra-Act news from the recent Tamashii Nations. Here we got a whole lot of Showa based Ultras, with some modern day Ultras. More or less they sent us a huge platter to deal with that shock and awe any Ultra-fan. Now let's get this show on the god damn road!

All the way from the original series we finally get to see the Alien Kaiju known as Zetton along with the 2 verisons of Hayata that have or have not been made as of yet.

That was also followed up by the crucification scene from Ultraman Ace, deplicting that we'll have a chance to possibly get Robo Ace and Ace Killer as Ultra-Acts. I do sort of wish that they'll also release the crosses as a stand set thou.

Along with display the deaths of the Ultra-Brothers we get to see more of the Family of Ultra, as Taro was shown along side his parents; Father of Ultra and Mother of Ultra. While Ultraman Jack got pimp out the Ultra-Mantel some more.

Then we obscurely get three random Ultra-Acts thrown at us along with another amazing figure needed to be added to the growing Gridman line. First up Alien Babalu from Ultraman Leo, looking ever so narcissisticly. Followed up by Ultaman Jonias that random Ultraman from the Cartoon/Anime and the great Ultra from America, Ultraman Powered!

And here's that latest one for the Gridman line: Electric God Zenon/Xenon

Then from the modern era, shown along the newest upcoming Ultra-Act Nexus we see the Dark Ultra Zagi and Ultraman Noa from well Ultraman Nexus!

And to finally end it all: All the way from Ultraman Retsudan, Zero stops by trolling us all with his New Verison Ultra-Act and Two New Forms!!! We also can tell it's a new verison cause it has a cape-like cloak and bitches love capes!

Zero: Strong Corona

Zero: Luna Miracle

My final thoughts on all these promos for all these upcoming Ultra-Acts is none other than a TAN favorite quote: #WalletKillers!! And as Dwayne "the Rock" Johson would say it "WalletKillers is now trending, Worldwide!" (Originally posted on http://www.tokuanimenews.blogspot.com/)

Tamashii Nations: Robot Damashii, Gunpla and Armor Girls

So at Tamashii Features Robot Damashii fans were treated like royalty with some possible (And since it's robot damashii and not gundam models extremely likely) and extremely likely release announcements. Starting with Gundam's since it's my namesake...

We have our look at the Gundam MK.V, the Droven Wolf Silver Bullet and the Droven Wolf

I'm really liking the look of the MK.V and will likely get it since a model is more than likely never coming.

Anyway next up on the list, it's more of a foreshadowing  but it's obviously we're going to be getting a Robot Damashii of the Kshatriya from Gundam Unicorn.

I personally might get it, but I already have the HG of it so I'm not sure yet.

Next up, more love for UC fan's specially those who've been wanting more from this series sides a GFF, we have the Robot Damashii Xi Gundam rolling out

I'm without a doubt excited for this one since we haven't even gotten a model for it, and will without a doubt be getting it.

Now going into gundam models real quick, we have a strange type of gundam model shown called Chogokin Model, which seems to be an all metal RX-78 or something along those lines:

Will I get it? If it's a true model kit getting released... possibly.

Next up we're moving out of the Universal Century and into the After Colony era with some Wing Robot Damashii and an AGP. Starting with the Damashii we have the Robot Damashii of the Aeries, both the standard OZ version and Lucrezia Noin's

Never personally been a fan of the earlier Oz MS's, but I might get Noin's custom one... not sure yet.

What I am sure of is I'll be getting this:

The Armor Girl Project Wing Zero Custom. Originally I thought it was just a pallet changed version of the earlier Wing Gundam, upon further inspection there are some aesthetic changes to the girl herself so I'll without a doubt get it.

Speaking of the Wing Gundam Girl

We have better pictures of the AGP Wing Gundam Code: 淡雪 (I don't actually know the translation of the Japanese, I think it's Awayuki with mean's snowfall... but Google translate isn't 100% reliable).

Anyway Quickly moving into the realm of Video Games and non century suits... we have the Robot Damashii Extreme Gundam Type Leo

Looking Badass as allways, I'll definitely be picking this figure up since his model kit counterpart was an online exclusive.

Now for all you After War lovers out there, we have the Gundam Double X with G-Falcon attachment that was announced as well

Hot damn does that thing look BEAST!! I'll be picking this guy up since it doesn't seem bandai has any intentions of giving us a HG or even a MG of him any time soon.

And to finish up with the Gundam's, we go to the Cosmic Era with the Testament Gundam

Another Badass looking figure, I will certainly pick him up since I doubt he'll EVER get Model Kit treatment.

Oh but yeah, I said that's it for Gundam, but there is Much MUCH more, I didn't title this Mecha Madness for nothing.

Moving into the realm of Knightmares, to go along with those Lancelot's that's coming out we have the Gurren MK-II finally in robot damashii form

How I've been Pining to get a Gurren in figure form for a while that doesn't make my wallet cry and since the Inaction Off-Shoots weren't up to snuff for me, this Damashii will be a great addition when it comes out.

Moving into the realm of Boukoku no Agito, we have the RPI-11 Glosgow 

Eh it's a Glosgow, and while their designs are unique... i'll probably skip it.

Now into a realm of Code Geass most who aren't die hard fan's would not know about, coming form the Sobo no Oz manga we have the Red Gekka

To be fair, I myself don't know much about this, the forum I got the picture from misinterpreted it as the Gurren MK-I, which it is not.

Also coming from Sobo no Oz we have the Agravain:

Developed from the Gawain, this thing just looks awesome. 

Another Knightmare from Sobo no Oz, we have the brother unit of the Guren, the Byakuen:

So instead of having a Radiation Wave buster on the right arm, it has a 7-in-1 weapon unit... works for me!

And last but not least, again from Sobo no Oz... we can't ahve a Guren (Kinda) without a Lancelot, so here we have the Lancelot Grail:

So we go from a White Knight... to a Red one... I see what you did there bandai!

That's about all the Robot Damashii and mecha stuff that I could find coming out of Tamashii Nations... stay tuned for more information on these figures for their release dates and prices people!

Tamashii Nations Day One Coverage

Earlier this morning Tamashii Nations has shown the new line-up of figures ranging from SHFs to even Monsterarts. 


To start off with we finally get a look at Kamen Rider Blade in SHF form.  He is one the three Pre-Decade Heisei Riders that hasnt been released in the Figuarts line until now.  He looks pretty nice so far and it will be cool to see if Bandai will show the other riders from his series in the next couple of days.

 In the next picture we get a look at a whole bunch of Showa related SHFs.  We can see Appolo Geist who was a really huge fan wanted figure along with Riderman and Kamen Rider X.    Also Stronger fans can finally get a Tackle to go along with their Stronger Figuart.   They even decided to show a regular shocker solider so I guess you can army build those as well.

 Next we got a confirmation that the rest of the Zodiarts will be released.  At this point I wonder how Bandai will decide to release these since most of the ones released so far were exclusive so possibly some of these newer ones will be a regular release.

In the following image we get a look at the rest of the riders from Kamen Rider Faiz along with the Horse and Wolf Orphenochs.   I am glad to see that they made a Wolf Orphenoch because I really liked his design and it will be cool to display him next to Faiz.  Something tells me he is going to be exclusive but at this point I can't even tell how much shown will even be released to begin with.

To go along with the announcement of Space Sheriff Gavan, Metal Heroes fans can will be pleased to see that Bandai has decided to make Shaider and Sharivan as well.  Seeing as Toei is trying to revive Metal Heroes these SHFs are nice to help promote the franchise and a nice addition to the fans collections.

The next image reveals that the rest of the Ryuki Riders will be released in the SHF line.  For this series its hard to tell how they will release them because of the whole contract monster thing getting in the way.  Most Kamen Riders dont have a specific partner of some sorts so being a series that mostly revolved around them makes it difficult to release them.

Moving along we also can also see that Bandai is once again catering to Power Rangers fans with the reveal of the MMPR Green Ranger or Dragon Ranger from Kyoryu Sentai Zyuranger.  It looks as though the Dragon Shield is indeed removable so if it is we can make MMPR Red to wear it. At this point its pretty much inevitable that the other rangers will be released as well so we finally get a definitive figure team of the original Power Rangers.

For those who Superhuman Samurai fans you should be glad that Zenon has also been announced to go alongside Servo so the only one that needs to be released is Drago.

Finally we also find out the other "she" that Bluefin was referring to and it was none other then SH Monsterarts Biollante.  The massive female Kaiju is sure to be the most expensive and the biggest figure yet in the line.  So this has been a look at day one at Tamashii Nations so stay tuned for the next couple of days for new announcements.  Source: TokuAnimeNews via Tokunation
