Check out the quick preview for the song in the box below:
In celebration of the Power Rangers and their anniversary season, our very own conundrum is taking you back in time so you can Shift in to Turbo with a look at an older figure – the 8 inch Quick Draw Phantom Ranger figure! For those of you who remember Power Rangers Turbo, the Phantom Ranger was an ally to the Power Rangers. He would appear in both Power Rangers Turbo and Power Rangers In Space, but his true identity was never revealed (but the speculation runs rampant to this day). If you’re more a fan of the Sentai side of things, then you recognize the figure as the VRV Master from Gekisou Sentai Carranger, an ally but not an official 6th Ranger to the team. Unfortunately, due to his lack of an appearance in Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger, the probability that he appears in Power Rangers Super Megaforce is slim, as his costume was never seen on set.
So we’ll celebrate him right here! Take a trip down memory lane and click the discussion link at the bottom, or simply click here to see the full gallery!
Our good buddy and site contributor baltmatrix has finally gotten his hands on his desired Arms Change figure – Shin Zangetsu! He was kind enough to do his own video review of the figure. How does it compare to the earlier release of Zangetsu? Did the plastic quality improve? Check out the video below for the answers!
About a week our ago, our own Den-O took a comprehensive gallery of the figure as well as having it paired with all the other Arms Change fruits. Do yourself a favor and click here to check it out! So what do you think? Is this figure on your list of wants? Are you having trouble finding it? Don’t worry … the boys of the Talkin Toku podcast might have an easy way for you to get one. And maybe other things too! Stay tuned…
At last year’s Toy Fair, Bandai announced the domestic release of the DX Gosei Great mould that saw release in Japan akin to the Samurai Megazord.
The toy has finally resurfaced and is now available for pre order on Amazon. Though the website lists it as the “Legendary Megazord”, the toy photoed is indeed the Gosei Great not to confuse it with the US name for Gokaioh.
No word on a street date was given, but Amazon.com lists the Nihon Edition DX Gosei Great for $80 with a Free Shipping listing available.

In honor of the annual March Madness for college basketball, Saban Brands and Bandai of America have teamed up to create their own themed version of the bracket – Morphin Madness – where fans of Power Rangers will vote on their favorite Power Rangers against each other in a bracket-style tournament! In the end, the Power Rangers that are the last standing will become a special edition Ranger Key set to be given to lucky fans who participate. The grand prize however will be a 24k plated Gold Legendary Morpher (much like the 2013 SDCC 24k plated Gold Gosei Morpher).
We’re still not entirely sure how this is going to play out or how this is going to work – but at 4pm today (we assume PST/PDT) we will find out! Begin the countdown and at 4pm head on over to MorphinMadness.com and begin voting for your favorite Power Rangers!
