“Okay Cruise, let’s do this!”
Last week, we here at TokuNation received a rather generous gift. The good people at Hasbro sent out a pretty huge and impressive Product Review Mailer containing the entire first wave of Power Rangers Beast Morphers product! A number of fan sites and toy reviewers received them and we were lucky enough to receive one of these free mailers ourselves. While we plan to review all the products it contained, we wanted to kick things off with a review of the big bot in the box. The Beast Racer Zord Action Figure!
If you’re familiar with Hasbro’s other properties, the Beast Racer Zord Figure fits right in with their Titan Hero line of affordable figures. At $19.99 the Racer Zord is a bit more than those, but it’s also a pretty well rounded toy. Based on the Racer Zord Battle Mode suit, the figure has heroic super robot proportions, but also a ton of sculpted in detailing. With just the right articulation cuts and the included sword & axe, the Racer Zord is a great toy for kids and display piece for collector’s of all ages.
We’ve attached the full gallery to this post, but you can also read through our review of the Beast Racer Zord Action Figure by clicking “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post. We’ll be back with a Beast Morphers gallery of the 6″ Basic Tronic figure soon!
“Unleash the beast!”
Since it was officially announced back in February 2018 that Hasbro (the massive toy company behind Transformers, Star Wars, Marvel, and much more) was picking up the Power Rangers master license from Saban Brands & Bandai America, fans wondered what the future of the brand would look like. But shortly after that initial announcement, Hasbro let the world know what the Power Rangers series was headed for with Power Rangers Beast Morphers! In recent months the show has begun airing, and in fact just went on hiatus with this weekend’s introduction of the Gold Ranger! With a fresh new take on the TV show thriving, it’s good to know that the toyline is as well!
With Hasbro taking over the master license for the brand, the toyline has completely changed. While still based in practice on the designs crafted for it’s Super Sentai equivalent, Tokumei Sentai Go-Busters, without Bandai America involved this line has been rethought from the ground up. In light of this seismic shift in the way the Power Rangers toyline is designed and approached now, Hasbro has also decided to reach out to numerous fan sites, toy reviewers, and other prolific members of the Power Rangers fan community to foster some good will towards the new line. To that point, I & and the entire TokuNation team are proud to be included among these individuals. Hasbro has generously provided a product review mailer for us to sample the entire initial wave of Beast Morphers toys! This product mailer was 100% free and shipped to us at no cost whatsoever, it is truly a gift from Hasbro. One we incredibly and deeply appreciate.
TokuNation has been around for going on 8 years now and I’ve been doing toy reviews/galleries for this site for nearly that entire time. To say I and we are honored, would be an understatement. A toy company has never personally reached out to me before in order to review their products. So I accept this rather graciously. While I’ll be reviewing every item in this product mailer individually in the coming weeks, I wanted to take today to simply break down the contents of this generous gift on the whole, and present the wonderful packaging it was sent in. Click “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” for a full gallery and breakdown of the Beast Morphers Product Mailer”. You can expect our first gallery of figure’s contained within it, early next week!
BUDDY GO!
In case you missed it, Ultraman Taiga was announced as the exciting new chapter in the Ultra Heroes franchise. Since the initial announcement, a new teaser went live on YouTube showcasing each of the new Ultras in motion.
In addition, we also have a premiere date: July 6th 2019! In the meantime, you can watch the teaser in the box below:
LEVEL UP!
Joining alongside S.H.Figuarts Kamen Rider Zi-O II that we posted earlier, our second reveal is for fans of Kamen Rider Ex-Aid, and it’s none other than S.H.Figuarts Gemedus Chronus!
At the moment, both Gemedeus Chronus and Zi-O II are display only items so we have no indication on when/if they’ll come out and how much they’ll cost.
Do check back with us though, and we’ll provide updates as soon as they’re made available for pre-order.
REJOICE!
A Tamashii Nations event is currently being held in Tokyo, photos from the event’s beginning to trickle in and we have our first reveal: S.H.Figuarts Kamen Rider Zi-O II!
At the moment there isn’t any information on when Zi-O II will come out or for how much. But stay tuned, and we’ll be sure to update you once more info is made available.
UPDATE:
More photos have been released, courtesy of Dengeki Hobby!
I am incredibly honored and blessed to announce a project that has been in the works for well over a year (and really hit the ground running in the last 6 months) – a new Power Rangers fan website created by some of the big creative names in the Power Rangers fan community – PwrRngr.com!
PwrRngr.com is part of the same network as TFW2005.com, ToyArk.com, TokuNation.com, and HissTank.com and is 100% dedicated to the Power Rangers brand as a whole from every aspect – official, unofficial, and most importantly, fan created content. You can check out a full Toy Database (Hasbro’s Power Rangers), a Comic Database (BOOM! Studios Power Rangers comics), as well as the largest Power Rangers Discord server out there where you can literally morph in to your favorite Power Ranger.
So that now begs the question – what does that mean for TokuNation.com?
Going forward, TokuNation.com will still cover the Power Rangers brand but more strictly on a toy basis due to the fact nearly every Power Rangers iteration is based upon a Super Sentai series that preceded it. Convention coverage will be on-going with coverage shared between the network per usual. The forums here will remain unchanged.

Thank you to everyone for all their assistance over the last 18 months of planning and preparation, to Den-O for being a great friend and partner in all of this, and most of all to all the fans from TokuNation who helped inspire this project in the first place. Go Go Power Rangers!
A new round of magazine scans for Super Sentai has also hit the Internet, detailing the upcoming adventures of Kishiryu Sentai RyuSoulger!
Taking center-stage this month is the SIXTH KishiRyu, DimeVolcano! This fiery dimetrodon is the first in a new breed of DinoKnights- known as the KishiKyoRyu with powers greater than anything the RyuSoulgers’ currently possess.
By gaining control of DimeVolcano’s unique RyuSoul– the MeraMera Soul, RyuSoul Red activates a new armored form called MeraMera Armor which allows Kou to perform incredible fire-based attacks.
In addition, DimeVolcano is able to to combine with Tyramigo to form an even stronger Mecha- KishiRyuOh DimeVolcano!
Finally, a new villain will be facing the RyuSoulgers very soon. This new member of the Druidon Tribe is known as Waizuru, a sorcerer in blue armor. Waizuru will be voiced by tokusatsu veteran Hikaru Midorikawa perhaps best known for his role as The Hyper Agent, Gridman!
Stay tuned to TokuNation for all Super Sentai reveals!
The latest round of magazine scans has been posted online, offering fans a few details about the next adventures of Kamen Rider Zi-O!
In the near future, an alien meteorite crashes into Earth- containing a powerful new foe, Kamen Rider Ginga! This extraterrestrial Kamen Rider has set out to conquer the universe with his unfathomable powers- Ginga is even stronger than Zi-O’s Trinity Form!
To stop this new threat, Kamen Rider Woz must develop a MiRide Watch based on Ginga’s powers- transforming Woz into his most powerful form yet, Kamen Rider Woz Ginga!
But the alien threat is only one of the challenges facing Team Zi-O. A mysterious demon is at loose- the next Another Rider, AnotherHibiki! Sougo must learn how to fight such a creature with the help of the Oni Riders.
Definitely some exiting times ahead for Kamen Rider Zi-O! Stay tuned to TokuNation as we keep you up to date on all Kamen Rider reveals!
