The ninjas are coming and Shuriken Sentai Nininger is right on the horizon. Here’s a much clearer look at the first push of toys.

The new catalog is here and we finally have our first good look at the team’s mecha revealed in a blurry catalog scan just last week. The name has been confirmed as Shurikenjin.

Shurikenjin is created from the combination of five rather unique mecha: Shinobimaru belonging to Red makes up the center of mecha akin to Ryuseioh of Dairanger, along with Dragonmaru for Blue, Dumpmaru for Yellow, Wanmaru for white, and Byunmaru for Pink. Shurikenjin will have different combinations at it’s disposal, the scan shows that Blue’s machine can be swapped out for Red’s though what functionality this will have in the show is unknown.

In addition, we have our first look at the Nininger’s arsenal with the reveal of the DX Shinobigatana, the personal side arm held by each of the individual Ranger which seems to use a similar gimmick to the Spin Disks from Shinkenger. Along with the Shinobigatana we have the Gamagamaju, some sort of frog-like pistol and the Karakuri Hengen shown to transform into various weapons for Red, Blue, and Yellow.

Finally, we have articulated action figures ala Bandai of America, dubbed the Ninin Action Series figures, each one standing at about 134mm. At the time, the release information’s too blurry to make it, more on that when the information becomes available.
