Our good friend raz got his hands on the Diamond Distributors May Solicitations Preview book that retailers have received that showcase, well, product available through Diamond Distributors for the month of May 2014! Included was a section dedicated to Power Rangers Super Megaforce, and a lot of the images within are products that we got our first glimpse at during Toy Fair 2014!
We’ve hosted some of the images on this news article, but for the rest of the images of the preview book, check out raz’s blog “Razzle’s Dazzles! And to see images of these figures from our coverage of Toy Fair 2014, you only need to click here to see 150 images of Power Rangers Super Megaforce!
After hearing about that Diamond Comics preview catalog, I went out to a comic shop today looking for it to see if I could get it early. One comic shop employee explained that it wasn't for sale until tomorrow, but he had one right there and was nice enough to let me take pictures of it.
Trekkieb47's 119 heroes tshirt for Power Rangers 20 is also in it!
The rest of the pictures are on my blog. Didn't want to bog down one post with 20 pictures.
Pretty cool. Most of the stuff already has been seen at Toy Fair 2014, but there's some stuff that's new. (MMPR Red Ranger with Green Ranger Armor Key FTW!)
Have to ask though, were there any Legacy/20th Anniversary stuff in the catalog?
No there isn't. Not other than the Dragon Dagger and Dragonzord. As a comic shop manager I too have access to copies of this magazine, though circulating images from it early is kind of a no no. But no, there are no other Legacy items listed that we hadn't seen before. The import Gosei Great however is listed.
Actually that shop could get in SERIOUS trouble with Diamond for allowing someone to look at, let alone take pictures of, Previews early. They are extremely strict with their street dates.
That Fuuraimaru is still the most awful toy in the entire Super Megaforce toyline and that's a difficult title to achieve!
However, that "119 Heroes" T-Shirt is awesome.
Bandai of America Fuuaimaru makes me sad to look at.
Since I do wanna collect all the Super Megaforce Zords, I do wanna get Furaimaru/Minizord just to say I have it.
That and it probably looks better when combined with Legendary Megazord.
Furaimaru is looking a little better, but I'm still holding my breath.
Awesome to see we'll be getting the Silver Ranger key at least.
A special bit of love needs to be given to Eric (aka @trekkieb47 on Twitter and host of the podcast Ranger Command Power Hour @RangerCommandPH on Twitter) for that t-shirt design ... as it was his design that someone else stole and profited off of.
furiamuru has nothing on thr mystic dragon. now THATS an ugly toy
