Let’s Watch Wednesdays is at it again with Ultraman Nexus!

The end of last week saw Jun captured and experimented on by TLT, Negoro’s pictures and headlines contained, and Komon given control of the new Chester Delta. Now, Jun is faced with the terrible truth that his battles as Ultraman are killing him, Negoro has found comrades in the UFO community, and Mizorogi has returned. The gate to the land of death is open. And Jun’s bond to the light will shine it brightest.

If you don’t know the drill by now then please head over to our weekly LWW Discussion thread and jump right in on this weeks’ selection of episodes. Every single post in these discussion threads will count towards our giveaway. Which if you haven’t guessed it by now, our Let’s Watch Wednesday’s giveaway prize for Ultraman Nexus is, the complete series of Ultra Q on DVD!

So Let’s Watch Ultraman Nexus 22-24!

The users at TokuNation.com must have felt that the color yellow was being highly under-represented in the voting process, because they’ve come together to vote Ciara Hanna, who plays Gia Moran the Yellow Ranger of the current series Power Rangers Megaforce as the 12th Best Power Ranger of All Time!

We’re only a handful of episodes in to Power Rangers Megaforce, but we do know that Gia carries on to the Yellow Super Megaforce Ranger, which for Super Sentai fans was a huge favorite as Gokai Yellow.

With the impending release of normal Apollo Geist this month via the Tamashii Web Shop, I don’t think anyone expected this announcement. Now the upgraded/revived form of Apollo Geist from Kamen Rider X will be receIving the S.H. Figuarts treatment as well via the Toei Hero Net website! Revived Apollo Geist will be 4410 yen and due for January 2014 release.

Toei Hero Net tends to be the dead zone for figures that Bandai deems poor sellers. Exclusives that they can’t justify even producing in the already limited quantities of Tamashii Webshop Exclusives. So be aware that anything for sale at Toei Hero Net will be produced in a smaller quantity than usual such as the Zodiarts Figuarts Zero’s and S.H. Figuarts Gokai Christmas. So get with your favorite webshop middleman now to secure an order!

A new pre-order at BigBadToyStore has revealed a new Pacific Rim 2 Pack, Gipsy Danger VS Knifehead! After the movie premiered, some of you have mentioned difficulty in finding the figures at Toys R Us. Both figures were in wave 1, so if you missed out, this set can aid in catching up. We aren’t sure if these will be repainted or come with additional accessories, so stay tuned!

Price is $35.99 and this set is scheduled for release in October.
