A new full-length trailer for the upcoming film Kamen Rider Ghost & Kamen Rider Drive: Movie War Genesis has been posted online!

This gives us some excellent shots of both Riders fighting against new enemies, including the Leonardo Ganma. In addition, we have our first look at Shinnosuke’s latest form- known as Kamen Rider Zero Drive.

Movie War Genesis premieres in theaters on December 12, 2015!

That time of year has rolled around once more! It’s the third annual Titanium Ranger Day! October 28th 2013 started it all when our colleagues at Rangercrew got together with Bandai Cards to help promote the Titanium Ranger with the official reveal of his Power Rangers ACG Card and a live chat with his actor Rhett Fisher! 

What began as a simple day of appreciation for the character has grown to be much more than that. Not only did Titanium Ranger make his way into the ACG that year, but he was 1 of the final 5 rangers selected in Morphin Madness,  became part of the exclusive Power Morphicon 2014 Ranger Key Pack, had a 5″ Super Megaforce Legendary Ranger figure, AND made it into the finale of Power Ranger Super Megaforce!

As the first ranger ever to be solely featured in Power Rangers (Lightspeed Rescue) with no sentai counterpart for his basis, Titanium Ranger is one of the most unique creations in the entire Power Rangers franchise. Appreciation for the Titanium Ranger & Rhett Fisher himself has been on the rise for years. It’s no coincidence that the last few years have been very kind to the character. We here at TokuNation are proud to celebrate another Titanium Ranger Day!

A plethora of new images for upcoming episodes of Kamen Rider Ghost have been posted online! These images have revealed some interesting new directions for this series-

*Kamen Rider Ghosts’ fifth form will be Billy The Kid Damashii! This form also leads to a new Ghost Gadget, the Bat Clock that gives Takeru extra firepower.

*Ghost will later obtain the Beethoven Damashii and attack (or control) Ganma with music.

*A special TV-Kun episode will grant Kamen Rider Ghost the Ikkyu Damashii! Sadly, this forms’ powers are unrevealed at the time of writing.

*Brief teaser images for three more Damashii are also shown- Santa Claus, Kamehameha and Special Ore (a Halloween-edition with a full orange coat).

*Last but certainly not least, a few new images of Kamen Rider Specter are included in this lineup! Specter is seen using his Nobunaga and Tutankhamun Damashiis- along with Edison! It seems the fight for Eyecons has some sudden twists ahead!

Stay tuned to TokuNation as we keep you up to date on all Ghostly news!

This one’s a little bit late but we’ve finally got a gallery and review ready to share of the NYCC 2015 Mighty Morphin Power Rangers Movie Dino Charger Power Pack! And we’ve also included the concurrently released Toys ‘R’ Us exclusive Ninja Mega Falconzord Charger in this gallery!

The Movie Dino Charger pack is one supremely nice con exclusive as you’ll see in the photos attached to this article and in the full gallery. The packaging for this set is identical to the SDCC MMPR Charger Pack, all 6 Ranger Chargers are included and a spot is reserved on the end for the Ninja Mega Falconzord Charger. The 6 Movie Ranger Chargers feature the helmets, personal weapons, & Ninja Zords for each ranger as well as the Original Movie Logo within the rotating prism. While the Ninja Mega Falconzord Charger features a group shot of the team, the White Ranger Morpher & a full image of the Ninja Mega Falconzord itself!

We’ve assembled 80 images of this magnificent set after the jump as well as an in depth review. But first why not check out this brief video below showcasing the sound effects that these chargers make when interacting with the Dino Charge Morpher!
