Don't know if it has been mentioned here, but dukemon22 of Rangerboard says that's Tsutomu Sekine, who's apparently a fairly large name in Japan. He is nicknamed the "Jay Leno of Japan".

Yeah he's apparently a huge drama actor in Japan. So maybe him coming down to the toku level is what prompted the mystery. But still, I was expecting some crazy robot conductor type guy.

I was hoping hard for Owner. Hopefully there's a huge Den-O/Tokkyuger crossover in the work. I mean there almost has to be right?

Listened to the theme song all day and I absolutely love it.

Coming down to toku level? Toku, like local heroes I suppose, is very well loved in Japan (or so I hear). Over here if you star in PR, you'll probably never work again bar the convention circuit, over there it propels you to stardom. It's a right of passage. Considering so many people have grown up with sentai over the years.

I mean sure it's a kid's show, but I bet he loves it.

Well... hence why he's signed up for Togger.

Say what you will. But I most certainly meant down to toku level. Ratings for tokusatsu are a mere fraction of what dramas get, and they steadily decline every year. You don't get nearly the same level of exposure as a toku actor as you would for dramas. This man has a staggering career doing TV drama, so yes he is coming down to the toku level by doing this.

I'm not saying he doesn't want to do it, of course he does or he wouldn't be there. But that's a step down from the usual stuff he does.

From all the news, how many Resshas do we know about?

And I'm now considering passing on the Tokkyuger stuff until Spada reviews it.

Through the Toy scans we know about 10 Resshas right now.

Don't know about you guys, but I'm pretty hooked on the ToQger theme. It's such a catchy song, I've got it on repeat.

Anyhow, some pics from 2ch, courtesy of dukemon22's Toku Insider. They're not in the order that I found them, sorry about that.
