Earlier this week, the full image of the Kamen Rider Meteor upgrade have been leaked online. This matches the silhouette of the Meteor upgrade we posted last week. And just recently, rumors have started to spread.
Please take this with a grain of salt!
Here is the original post from 2ch:
最強フォームはブルーを基調にした『コズミックステイツ』Kamen Rider Meteor's upgrade will be called "Meteor Storm." Furthermore, the post also states that Kamen Rider Fourze's final form will be blue based and be called "Cosmic States." It is said to be utilized with the Astro Switch No.40 Cosmic.
金を基調としたメテオの新フォーム、『メテオストーム』
40番目のスイッチはコズミックスイッチ。
おもちゃとしてはレジェンドライダースイッチがシリーズとして販売決定。
だから食玩具で買わなくても大丈夫(ﾟσ-ﾟ)
Moreover, the Astro Switches will be released as a set called Legend Rider Switch series.
Last year, we got the information about GokaiSilver early February and weeks before Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger even started. And today, rumors about Tokumei Sentai Go-Busters' additional rangers have began to pop-up!
According to dukemon22 of RangerBoard:
Rumor has it the next 2 Busters are named "StagBuster" and "HeatBuster" (probably "BeetBuster"). They are insect themed, and are colored gold and silver.If we based our timeline last year, we might see some confirmations later this week from the Tokumei Sentai Go-Busters 2nd quarter toy catalogs. Please take these rumors with a grain of salt until everything is confirmed.
As the story for the upcoming anime series inspired by the popular idol group AKB48, AKB0048 is confirmed, the roles of the nine voice cast audition winners have been announced. They rise up as "illegal idols" who inherit the light and spirit of those legendary members of AKB48.
The cast and roles include:
- Sayaka Nakaya (Team A) — Orine Aida (13)
- Amina Satō (Team B) — Yuuka Ichijō (14)
- Sawako Hata (Team KII) — Suzuko Kanzaki (14)
- Sumire Satō (Team B) — Mimori Kishida (17)
- Haruka Ishida (Team B) — Kanata Shinonome (15)

- Mayu Watanabe (Team B) — Chieri Sono (13)
- Karen Iwata (AKB48 Trainee) — Nagisa Motomiya (13)
- Mao Mita (Team M) — Makoto Yokomizo (16)
Mari Okada (AnoHana, Toradora!) is supervising and writing the scripts, and Mikan Ehime (Macross Frontier) is designing the characters. Yoshimasa Hiraike (Working!!/Wagnaria!!, Amagami SS) is the actual hands-on director of the anime at Satelight (Macross Frontier, Aquarion).
In an era when entertainment is outlawed, there is an idol group that offers underground guerrilla concerts despite the danger. The name of that female group is AKB0048. Until just before the annihilation of Earth, AKB48 shined as legendary idols. This is the story of the super galactic idol team that inherited that name.
