Third generation, LAVA.

This time, all armors are based on elements of fire (Lava), wind (Tornado), water (Tsunami), earth (Cliff) and aether (movie character).
TV series will air this December, and a movie next year.

Yes, there surely will be a movie this time.
The filming was already completed; It is now in post-production.

You might notice the lock on the side of his head.
This helmet was for roadshow, but the rest is for shooting.
The belt is fully functional: turn the key can trigger spinning and lights.

I want a toy of this singed by you now.

Do... do those effects come with them?

No joke I need some of those figures. If anyone knows how to get any of the vaguely figuarts styled figures of the heroes then please let me know. They look amazing.

11.11?..They are being released next week?! I thought it's gonna be next month.

FYI: while vaguely SHFiguart-styled, they have soft plastic limbs and heads.

Deluxe Action Set comes with additional stage.

I find the first TV series is a bit boring, love the designs though, but the Armor Hero Emperor movie is so much better. Still not watch anything from the second series other than some clips in Youtube.

Yeah I checked out the first episode and there was pretty much no suit action minus a short dream flashback sequence thing.

Do I need to have finished the series to watch Emperor Hero?

Looks nice. I saw the first series not too long ago. It had a few creaky hinges but all in all was not that bad.

Hot damn I wish you could find this stuff more easily.
