Courtesy of Gamu-Toys we bring you an extensive pictorial review of the recently released Ultra Act Thunder Gridman figure, also known as Synchro from Superhuman Samurai Syber-Squad!

This review includes images of the figure using both the previously released Ultra Act Gridman figure, and the unpainted dummy body included with this release. In order to accommodate Ultra Act Gridman’s head under the armour, a larger helmet is also included.

Thanks to some digging on the K-Mart.Com forum member GoseiIero95 has discovered previously unseen images of 3 new Power Rangers Megaforce toys! The 3 toys in question make up the Bandai America equivalent of the DX Gosei Wonder!

Specualtion was that the Gosei Wonder would not see any form of stateside release due to it’s nature in the source footage of Tensou Sentai Goseiger (Having only appeared in one short movie and a single episode of the series). However these pictures appear to confirm that the US Gosei Wonder will be a repaint/remold of the new Gosei Dragon mold from the DX Gosei Great Megazord set!

It looks like the Wonder is receiving the same treatment that the Sky Land Sea and Knight Brothers Header sets did. Smaller original molds attached to vehicle sets to increase play value.
