After 2014’s extremely successful Black Blood miniseries, the Silver Fanged Makai Knight is returning to the airwaves once again!

A new teaser for the upcoming Garo sidestory known as ZERO: Dragon Blood was released today, giving fans their first look at this new adventure in the world of the Makai Knights. This new adventure will follow on from the world introduced in Black Blood.

Fan-favorite Rei Fujita returns to the role of Zero, supported by fellow Garo alumni Mary Matsuyama as Makai Priestess Rekka. Garo creator Keita Amemiya will take the directors’ chair for this new project, with veteran Garo storyteller Sumiko Umeda serving as writer.

ZERO: Dragon Blood is currently scheduled to begin in 2017!

With thanks to The Tokusatsu Network for translations!

It seems the rumour mill is beginning to churn for the 41st Super Sentai series following Zyuohger, with Toei seemingly having filled out a trade mark application for a show translated as Uchuu Sentai Kyuranger as the title suggests: next year’s show could be heading for an outer space theme. The trademark appeared via @trademark_bot on Twitter whom in the past was responsible for revealing the currently airing Dobutsu Sentai Zyuohger’s title.

Keep in mind that Toei has yet to make any sort of official statement or announcement on this title, for all we know this trademark could end up being nothing or for another unrelated project all together. So for now take this announcement with a heavy dosage of salt and as always: we’ll bring more up to date information on this subject as it becomes readily avalaible.

After plenty of speculation the next Ranger Set from Premium Bandai has finally been revealed! Despite promotional images to the contrary this set will not include any Doubutsu Sentai Zyuohger keys. However, the Gokaiger Ranger Key Set 200th Edition will include the following:

Akaninger (Takaharu)
Akaninger (Tsumuji)
Akaninger (Yoshitaka)
Dark Akaninger
Aoninger
Kininger
Momoninger
Shironinger
Midoninger
Kyoryu Pink
ToQ 4

You may be wondering about a couple of these. The Kyoryu Pink & ToQ 4 keys included are stated to be repacks from the previous Premium sets they were a part of. Obviously to coincide with their use by the Gokaigers in the Zyuohger team up. Aoninger is prominently pictured with those two as well, but is a no brainer as a part of this set. the curious exclusion is a Yellow Buster Key. If repacks were on the table, why not included that one?

In either case the Gokaiger Ranger Key Set 200th Edition will be sold as usual as a Premium Bandai Exclusive. Orders open tomorrow, 9/12/16, with a release date for this set in February 2017. Retail price for this key set is 16,200 yen. Be sure to vist your preferred middleman or service today to secure an order!

In what looks to be a screenshot of upcoming exclusive Walmart items, one that should excite collectors of the Funko POP! line was discovered. It would appear that Walmart will be the exclusive home of an upcoming Mighty Morphin Power Rangers Alpha 5 figure!

The information was originally posted on Reddit, and shared out by @ZeroFlame16 on Twitter. If Alpha 5 is on the way, what do you think is next after that – a Zordon figure perhaps? Join in the discussion!
