Does anybody know if TK Drive is in stock anywhere? I've searched all over the web with no luck.

It was very very briefly in stock at HLJ this past weekend, and 1 at a time they've been in stock on Mandarake. But so far that's it.

Does anyone know a reliable place that still has some Drive Drivers?

It's like Gaim all over again. Or every Japanese release ever.

Every reliable and normal priced online store I know of has none right now. They should get more though during the next weeks.

Gaim was that rare exception were the demand far exceeded the available items :lol

They had some on AmiAmi a few days ago as well (thats where I got mine btw.) But I think they are now out of stock.

I think waiting until early next year is the best time to wait for Drive belts in my opinion. My parents were lucky enough to stag a Sengoku Driver Holder Special Set for my birthday this year back in May. I don't think Drive is going to be a popular as Gaim, so I think the demand for Drive is going to drop later on.

Damn. I'm trying to avoid another AC situation so I've been actively hunting it down. TK01 looks damn fun.

I haven't been following the toyline, is there any plans to make a diecast model of the NSX?

Depends on how popular the series is, they might make a figuarts version of it.

On another note, my driver arrived today, it's more fun than I thought it would be, the shift brace is really cool in how it interacts with the belt.

But boy this is one loud belt. The whirring and sound effects damn.

I meant in miniature, like Matchbox/Tomica sized.

Managed to snag a TK01 on Mandarake for around retail prices, so hopefully I'll have that soon and get to join in on the TK goodness!

Madrake still has a tk01 for a mear 2'500.

I haven’t followed the toy announcements for Drive, but do they intend to make Machine Chaser's henshin device/gun? Because I would totally buy that.

I could see them skipping it for the secondary Rider's belt though.

Yup Mashin Chasers Break Gunner is coming out in november or december. Chase is getting the full onn toy treatment like a secondary rider character would :)

Nice. I try not to miss the pre-order.

They refused me the belt, now I'm getting myself a gun. Read that last part in a movie-trailer voice for dramatic effect please.

Anyone know when chaser is due in the TK line? Also whats next in the TK line after the next set of tires (Tk02)?

Edit: My bad. just saw.

look like someone kinda removed the silhouette from those toy scans giving a little clearer look.

So he really does wear an orange as a strawhat, that's awesome!

Secondary Rider design looks okay, but...

I don't like that it means we will never see Machine Chaser again once he pops up :(

Why? Has it been confirmed that he's Mach or something

Broke down and ordered the gimmick figure today. Why do I have no self control? Oy!

so we have a drive using orange arms while wearing a umbrella hat, interesting.

no, it hasnt been confirmed and there's no way of knowing if that combo is going to used in the show, im thinking more realistically that mach might be Hayase

No, but I fear he will be. Motorcycle-theme, his human form obviously has a history with Belt-San, and the gun he's holding has its similarities to the Break Gunner. Nothing official, it's just that I would really hate it if they push Machine Chaser with his own toys and then ruin it by making them worthless when he becomes Mach.

I shouldn’t have said it anyway, it's just what I fear what could happen.

totaly worth every penny.

All we know is, he's called The Stig.

Yes!

More like The Stig's Japanese-Crime-Fighting cousin. lol. Maybe I should start watching Kamen Rider Drive.

Tridoron & TK-02 in hand! Photos in the next few days!

Just got the driver and SC 01 this week so much fun. One thing that has struck me with getting both the role play and figure line for drive (And to a lesser extent Gaim with LV-01, 02, 03 and 04) is that Bandai seems to wants to have real crossplay between the two. Admittedly said crssplay is limited but it shows that Bandai is moving into a crossplay direction with the lines. It'll be interesting to see if they expand crossplay abily with the next Kamen rider as this seems to be a trend going forward

I meant to ask this as I seem to have overlooked it at some point, but my DX Tridoron came with a bonus Shift Car that appears to be very similar to Max Flare. Translucent red with flames ring a bell for anyone? I'm ashamed to say I'm unaware of it's name.

Max Flare Full Throttle version, I believe.

Yeah that's the name it's first run promo item, no change in the driver though

It'll be a few days before I finish the gallery but I just wanted to share with everyone, DX Tridoron is huge and I love every damn thing about it.

Its it just as wonderful as I think it is? It looks fabulous, I wish the pricetag wasn't so damn high.

I was on twitter and found this

not sure is anyone else found this image of TK06

Sorry for the dumb question but, is it known when the pre-orders for the November/December-stuff are going up? Because November isn’t that far away and I don’t want to miss out again.

I found this image on a Japanese BBS I lurk on, does anyone know what it is and where I can get one? Presumably it's a candy toy, and I hope it has stickers too.

Apperently there is a transforming one too.

Candy toy Tridoron video!

Got my Tire Koukan Type Speed today and its a damn cool figure. Yes the Tires are not as involved as the fruit armor was last year but the toy shines in completely different ways than the AC figures did. Where Drive really shines is in how it looks. The AC Toys suffered sometimes alot from the bulky armor they wore and looked kinda off especially armors like Mango or Peach Energy. Drive makes full use of how sleek the suit design is in this show and manages to recreate it as close as a figure of this price point can. I´m especially impressed that they managed to get all of the intricate detailing on his backside to look as good as it does. The paint is also really nice and has a very pretty gloss to it. The grey mouthpiece is a bit dull and I would have liked for it to be silver.
I was really surprised when I noticed that the eyes are clear plastic and not just grey plastic like it looked on some pictures I saw. The Tire Koukan is fun but it can get rather boring with only two tires to switch around and only one having some kind of gimmick to it. Dont know how I feel about the Max Flare Tire being clear plastic since its not in the show and from the looks of it only this one and Midnight Shadow will be clear plastic so I dont really see the point.

But that aside the figure is still great and I cant wait to get my hands on more tires to swap around :lol

I really want that toy of the Brake Gunner. The Sound effects are just far too awesome.
