Another new special release from Boom! Studios has just been announced!

Go Go Power Rangers: Back To School will feature the five teenagers with attitude going on their first vacation since obtaining the Power Coins. Each Ranger’s story will be explored from a different perspective, and feature situations where morphing may not be the answer to saving the day.

This new 40-page one-shot comic will be written by Marguerite Bennett and will feature artwork from Jim Towe (Youngblood), Derek Charm (Star Wars: Adventures, Powerpuff Girls), Jordan Gibson (The Amazing Spider-Man), Xiao Tong Kong (Adventure Time Comics) and Ilaria Catalani (Rugrats: R is for Reptar).

Go Go Power Rangers: Back To School has a pricetag of $7.99 USD! An exact release date has not been confirmed at time of writing, so stay tuned to TokuNation as we keep you up to date on all Power Rangers comic news!

I imagine it went something like this. Bandai: “The reports of my death are greatly exaggerated.

Despite popular thinking to the contrary, a new wave of Power Rangers Legacy 6.5″ figures has actually made it’s way up for order by way of Amazon! The image we’ve used for this article comes from the original reveal that these figures were possibly being developed, back in October 2017. There are no official stock images for any of these figures currently.

Legacy Psycho Pink

Legacy In Space Silver Ranger

Legacy Ninja Steel Red Ranger

Legacy Ninja Steel Yellow Ranger

Legacy Ninja Steel Blue Ranger

These listings have surfaced seemingly out of the blue. But it likely confirms the line is quite far from dead before Hasbro begins releasing it’s Power Rangers product next year. Curiously absent for now are the Psycho Yellow & Black Rangers to complete that team, as well as a Pink Ninja Steel Ranger. For now the listings are not active, but they can be added to a wish list if you’d like to keep track of them.

When these listings go live we’ll be sure to update you!

Recently, Premium Bandai and Bandai Japan announced the next Super Mini-Pla figures to see release in Japan (the Muteki Shogun, Kakure Daishogun, and Tsubasamaru). Fans speculated whether or not they would see a release in the United States – and today Bluefin Tamashii Nations announced that the Ninja Megazord and Falconzord will see a US release!

The retail price tag for this set will be $99 and will release this November. This is great because the Japanese version, Kakure Daishogun and Tsubasamaru, were Premium Bandai exclusives and were demanding a pretty penny for import.

Super Mini-Pla are model kits that you put together. The end result is a mecha that is more articulated than the full size toy. The closest way to describe them is think Gundam model kits but of your favorite Power Rangers and Super Sentai mechs.

The Shattered Grid event in the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers comic has claimed it’s final two victims – Kyle Higgins and Daniele Di Nicuolo are leaving the book, passing the torch to Marguerite Bennett and Simone Di Meo as writer and artist, respectively. Starting in Issue 31, the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers Comic will Change Creative Team at Shattered Grid Conclusion.

This new team will be continuing on from the after-effects of the conclusion of the Shattered Grid comic event. Kyle Higgins states in an exclusive article with ComicBook.com that there is no giant reset button for the event – the changes that happen in the book are, for the time being, permanent and change everything (just look at the new team!).

The final issue featuring Kyle Higgins and Daniele Di Nicuolo will be Mighty Morphin Power Rangers 30, which releases this August. The last work featuring Kyle Higgins as writer for Power Rangers will be the Soul of the Dragon graphic novel, which releases near the end of the year.

To Kyle Higgins and Daniele Di Nicuolo – THANK YOU. Thank you for taking a property known for being 100% kids oriented and telling real stories with real consequences. Thank you for taking Power Rangers seriously, showing the comic book world that our favorite spandex heroes can have awesome, gritty stories with heart and soul. You will both go down as creative legends in the Power Rangers universe.

To Marguerite Bennett and Simone Di Meo – WELCOME! We cannot wait to see what you have in store for the Power Rangers universe and we are excited to be able to take the journey with you!

Toei has uploaded a new trailer for the upcoming Super Sentai reunion film Engine Sentai Go-Onger- 10 Year Grand Prix!

A decade since their last adventures together, the Go-Onger team has long been divided thanks to the Human Worlds’ Isolation Barrier. Worse yet, a new Sentai Activity Ban by the Ministry of Defense means that if the Go-Ongers appear again, they will be labeled as terrorists! A major incident will occur to reunite both the Human & Engine team members- while the old enemy Gaiark Clan is along for the ride as well!

10 Year Grand Prix is currently scheduled for release on September 26 2018!

Looks like fans of the Power Rangers Legacy action figure series are in for one last treat!

A new listing at GameStop has revealed an upcoming exclusive Legacy action figure- Mighty Morphin Armored Red Ranger! This will be an excellent entry for fans of the iconic Dragon Shield configuration.

The Legacy Armored Red Ranger is listed with a price tag of $19.99 USD and has a tentative release date of November 15 2018! However, price and release details are subject to change. Stay tuned to TokuNation for further details on this exciting Legacy entry!

UPDATE TO STORY: A lot of readers have inquired on whether or not this is a Legacy 6.5″ action figure, or if this could be a Legacy flip head figure. To that end – we honestly don’t know for sure. What we DO know – “AF” stands for “Action Figure” in GameStop listings, so the speculation that this is a Pop! Vinyl is probably inaccurate.
The $19.99 price tag attached puts it at the same price range of the two Legacy figure assortments (both 6.5″ and flip heads). The assumption made is that GameStop has shown increased interest in selling items for collectors – specifically the Legacy lines – and this is another offering. Who knows – maybe the Psycho Ranger girls show up at GameStop in Spring 2019.
