Our good friend Fury Diamond of Samurai Cast Blog took some images and did some reviews on some of the other Power Rangers Super Megaforce toys and accessories that were made available online last week through Amazon.com.

Specifically, he received and did reviews for the Super Megaforce Cycles, which have the ability to combine with the Legendary Megazord, the Red and Green Super Megaforce Ranger Masks, and the Deluxe Super Mega Blaster.  We have mirrored a small number of images here with his permission, but we suggest you head on over to Samurai Cast Blog to see all the images and to check out his review of the products and whether or not they’re worth your time!

What do you think?  Are you going to pick up these items when they’re available in stores?  Let us know!

While we have a brand new look and feel to the website, we’re still celebrating the 20th Anniversary of Power Rangers!  And what would an anniversary celebration be without a gallery of some really small toys by super-small-toy collector and photo contributor MoonBaseTom?

Today, MoonBaseTom brings you a gallery of the MiniPla Gosei Great figure from Tensou Sentai Goseiger, or the Japanese series that Power Rangers Megaforce is adapted from.  These little guys feature more articulation than their DX counterparts and look pretty slick!

To see the full gallery, or simply click on the link at the bottom right of the news post!

under Godzilla

While many of us do not have the fondest memories of the last Godzilla movie released in the United States, the new Godzilla is looking more and more like one heck of a blockbuster.  Check out this trailer, released by Warner Bros. UK Trailers, below!

What do you think?  We’re pretty excited.  Why don’t you come celebrate this new trailer in our new Godzilla forum and discuss it with other Godzilla enthusiasts!

under TokuNation, TokuNation Site Updates

Nearly two years ago we launched TokuNation.com with two goals in mind – build a friendly and helpful community, and create a website that fans of tokusatsu can follow for the latest news on all their favorite shows and toys.  And for the last two years, we’ve been very proud and very humble of the friends, fans, and followers that we’ve made through our forums, our Facebook, and our @TokuNation Twitter account.  It has been our absolute pleasure to get to know every single one of you and to give all of you opportunities to win all the contests and giveaways that we do on a regular basis.  All of this, everything we do, is for you guys and because of you guys.

So for starters, THANK YOU!

So after two years we decided it was time for a face lift.  We wanted to upgrade our visuals while still keeping the ability for the community to interact directly with each news post, but also integrate social media in to things.  So here’s a quick run down of some of the major changes you’ll see right on the front page!

– Social media integration in to each and every news post (if you’re signed in to any of those social media sites and you click the button, you can “Share” the story through your account!)

– A complete search engine for every single news post, ever, through a number of options including Major Category (IE: Kamen Rider, Power Rangers, Super Sentai), Shows, Toy Line, Characters, and Companies.  Try it out – you can now look back through 2 years of history with just a couple clicks!

– Featured stories – self explanatory!

There’s still so much more to share with you on what has changed, what is new, and what is still to come!  To find out all the details, either click the title of the story, click here, or click on the ”Discuss on the TokuNation forums” link at the bottom right of this post!

Thank you for two years of support – we will continue to strive to meet your, as well as our own, expectations for many more years to come!

When the going gets rough, the rough get going with a giant mech suit based off a watermelon! In the Kamen Rider Gaim show, Kamen Rider Gaim uses the power of the Watermelon Lock Seed to unlock the Watermelon Arms, a giant fruit that transforms in to a giant mech for Gaim to operate!

TokuNation.com contributor baltmatrix received the DX Watermelon Arms figure and took a series of photographs showcasing not only the size of this toy, but just how cool it is!

Check out all 24 images of this massive toy in the gallery by clicking here!

Is this a must-own for your Kamen Rider Gaim collection, or is this an easy pass? Check out the pictures and let us know!

Released originally as a Tamashii Web Shop Exclusive in September of 2011, the Greeed Kazari figure from the Kamen Rider OOO series is hard to come by these days without being previously owned – “new/sealed” versions of this figure seem to be non-existent.  Luckily, one individual who does own this figure is our very own photo and content staff member ryan – and he has taken a gallery of images to share with you of this great figure!

 

The figure, coming with the usual hand accessories, also comes with some rather different accessories than you might be used to.

 

or on the link to check out the full gallery of this different S.H. Figuarts figure!  And be sure to let ryan know how much his pictures rock!

under Power Rangers

Jungle Beast, Spirit Unleashed!

 

One of the more interesting products released during the run of Power Rangers was the short-lived MicroZords series.  One of those figures was none other than the Jungle Pride Megazord, featuring small versions of the Jungle Fury Zords that could combine and form the Jungle Pride Megazord!

 

Photo contributor conundrum took 23 stunning high resolution images of this small but cool figure.

We threatened our photo contributor Jmann with sticks, stones, and other nasty things if he didn’t put up some pictures of something.  So he responded with this pretty awesome gallery of Kamen Rider Gills from one of his favorite series Kamen Rider Agito.

 

Check out the full gallery by or by simply clicking the link at the bottom right of this page!

 

What do you think?  Should we keep Jmann around?  Give him some love or give him the ax!
