Akibaranger Season 2 S.H. Figuarts & Additional Images
 

Scans of the latest Figure-Oh Magazine, #181 have just hit and with them we get more looks at Hikonin Sentai Akibaranger Season 2! These images show off the new Akibaranger costumes in all their glory, noting the differences from the original suits to these new updates.

Also included in these scans are multiple images of the new trio of S.H. Figuarts Akibarangers which give us a better look at Cho Akibared as well as the new hairstyles for Yellow and Blue. A brief snippet on the side of the Season 1 recap page even gives us 2 new images of S.H. Figuarts Delu Knight and confirms his release in July for 3675 yen!

Last but not least is a pair of new images from Super Hero Taisen Z! One showing Wizard, Beast, and Goaki Silver facing off against Sharivan! And the other showing off more of the Space Shocker elite, the new buddyroid Chisato, as well as Gokai Silver disguised (or brainwashed?) as a Shocker Soldier!

The ribbons off Yellow's hair seem shorter on the figure. I nitpick, I'll probally end up getting Yellow and Blue.

Please don't let them start in June. I already have full plate for that month...

Who are you and what have you done with Sentai? :lol

I may not like the show but I like the suit designs. Just not Red's armor, because that shit is creepy. But that won't stop me from buying the original Akiba Red and these versions of Yellow and Blue.

Creepy as that Cho armor is I still love it/find it hilarious.

I'll buy every single Akibaranger Figuart that gets made. I already own the damn $400 car, why stop now? :lol

Still can't believe you did that

I can't wait for season 2, and those figuarts. I'll buy every last one of them dammit :lol

I'm in for all three. Akiba Red is a new form so he's bought, Akiba Blue is a new character so she's bought, and I may aswell just get Yellow to have a complete season 2 display :D

Deluknight is a preorder as soon as he goes up.

I'm hoping that too, but a June/July/August release again makes the most sense since it means the figures will start coming out as soon as the series finishes. But if the season one figures are anything to go by, these aren't going to be hard to get at a later date anyway.

Are those original Yellow and Blue heads just there to show off the differences, or are the new Figuarts gonna come with them in case you want one or the other? I'm gonna assume the former.

Looks like I'll just be buying the original AkibaRed and wait for the new trio.

I kinda like Super Red, and as sad as it is, I'll probably get Yellow and Blue, even though they're pretty miniscule tweeks from the season 1 figures.

Yeah, somehow Akibaranger is my Figuart exception, so I'll be getting these guys. I can't wait for more AkibaFun. :)

I still don't have any of the Akibaranger SHFs. I do want all of them though. It'll be a while before I get them I think, but they're not as inflated as some others, so I think I'll be okay.

I'll eventually need that stupid car too.

Also to comment on the Super Hero Taisen Z shots, the small shot on the bottom shows some of the space-themed toku characters that'll be involved...and Decade. So it looks like Decade'll possibly play some part in the movie too instead of being a background rider.

Cue Matrixbeast in 3...2...1... :lol

AkibaYellow and Blue v2 will need something more than new heads and garters for me to buy those again. Unless they're exclusive, they're going to pegwarm harder than the previous two.

id probably get them at retail price, but even for red's remold im perfectly content with my S1 Akibarangers.

If theres a season 3 i may cry

Akiba Red's new suit reminds me of Lautrec's from Dark Souls. Except Lautrec just has arms wrapped around him and not a Siamese ranger twin sticking out of him.

Further proof Toei doesn't learn from past mistakes.

These figures are such a tough sell. They're virtually identical to the S1 Akibarangers. I'm not sure the minute differences warrant another $50 each. I wonder what Bandai's expectations are for these and if they'll anticipate lower demand than S1 and so produce them as Tamashii Web Exclusives? So weird they decided to make these - especially without creating incentives for them like human heads or something...anything...

Someone got gipped I think. At no point were they ever more than say $35 each. The original releases of these figures retailed for 3000 yen each at a max. And they've enjoyed a steady drop in price since then, they've even settled close to 1000 yen a piece now.

Im not sure if I need it.. i mean i dig it but.. wait the old Akiba red can be Hakase's brother. There we go, purchase justified... =D

I also like the picture of blue and yellow mimicking the power up, hilarious.
