Easily the most exciting display of the weekend at this year’s Power Morphicon was the enormous amount of screen used props that Hasbro brought with them to the show. Ranging from Mighty Morphin Power Rangers all the way through Power Rangers Super Ninja Steel, fans were given a treat seeing these props up close and personal.

So of course we busted out our camera and took as many high resolution pictures as we could! Who knows if or when we will ever see these again? Every single prop that was on display is pictured in this news story. Click the title of the story to see them all!

This year marks the 25th Anniversary of the Power Rangers and Hasbro chose to celebrate by bringing 25 different helmets, one for each year of Power Rangers, to their display booth at this year’s Power Morphicon! Those with keen eyes will recognize the display pieces coming from the original offices of Saban Brands which shut down earlier this summer when Hasbro purchased their entire catalogue of intellectual properties.

The biggest and most exciting news prior to this year’s Power Morphicon was the Kickstarter launch for the Renegade Games project Power Rangers Heroes of the Grid. Renegade Games was in full attendance at Power Morphicon pulling in quite a large crowd to demo the game first hand and to check out all the proposed and upcoming game pieces thanks to continued support of the Kickstarter.

Check out some painted sample pieces from the game by clicking the title of the story! They are well done and are quite eye-popping! Also be sure to tune in to our review of a brief play through we got to experience while in attendance at Power Morphicon!

The biannual Power Morphicon has come and gone sending many Power Rangers fans home happy and poor. At the convention were our friends from Bluefin Tamashii Nations showcasing their current upcoming product. On display was the Soul of Chogokin Titanus (many claim it is simply a Legacy Titanus), their convention circuit exclusives Soul of Chogokin Black Megazord, Green and Red Ranger S.H. Figuarts with human heads, as well as the upcoming S.H. Figuarts Mighty Morphin White Ranger with human head.

The biannual Power Morphicon has come and gone but we’re still sharing images from the event! There were so many things to take pictures of and so little time to do it that we’re still catching up! Hasbro pulled out all the stops in their first-ever Power Morphicon by cracking open the vaults and showing off some Legendary Rangers goodness in a number of costumes and props from the last 25 years.

We have taken high resolution photos of every single costume on display at the show. To check out all the delicious pictures, click the title of the story! Power Morphicon will return to Anaheim, California in 2020. We’ll see you there!

This weekend is the Official Power Morphicon convention! On Friday, the show opened and fans of Power Rangers enjoyed quite a treat from the Hasbro booth – a number of show-used costumes and props from 25 years of the history. One item in particular that had a lot of interest was the prop from the series Power Rangers In Space, the Astro Megaship prop.

An older prop that has some wear and tear (missing some turrets) it is still in great condition. We took a number of photos from different angles – click the title of the story to see all the images!

Stay tuned for more high res photos from the Hasbro booth, including what’s inside the mystery box…

Fans of the Legacy Power Rangers toys are well aware of the massive restock coming this winter to online retailers of all the older Legacy roleplay items and Megazords. Today, GameStop has added even more upcoming items to their systems for older Legacy Power Rangers figures including the yet-to-be-released Legacy Psycho Black and Legacy Dino Thunder Yellow figures.

You’re looking at a restock of all seven Mighty Morphin Power Rangers figures, all five Metallic Mighty Morphin Power Rangers figures, all five Dino Thunder figures, and all five In Space figures.

Nick Hurst posted in the Facebook Group “The Ranger Store” pictures of the GameStop computer systems showing all the upcoming listings. The new figures are listed below.  They are not labeled as exclusives so the chance they end up at other retailers is there.  The figures and their item numbers are below.

  • Legacy Psycho Black – 177084
  • Legacy Dino Thunder Yellow – 177096

The remainder of the new listings of older figures with their items is below.

  • Legacy Dino Thunder Black – 177090
  • Legacy Dino Thunder Blue – 177094
  • Legacy Dino Thunder Red – 177092
  • Legacy MMPR Black Ranger (BAF) – 177002
  • Legacy MMPR Yellow Ranger (BAF) – 177022
  • Legacy MMPR Pink Ranger (BAF) – 177028
  • Legacy MMPR Red Ranger (BAF) – 177018
  • Legacy MMPR White Ranger (BAF) – 177025
  • Legacy MMPR Green Ranger (BAF) – 177016
  • Legacy MMPR Black Ranger (Metallic) – 177030
  • Legacy MMPR Blue Ranger (Metallic) – 177066
  • Legacy MMPR Pink Ranger (Metallic) – 177072
  • Legacy MMPR Red Ranger (Metallic) – 177032
  • Legacy MMPR Yellow Ranger (Metallic) – 177068
  • Legacy Psycho Red Red Ranger – 177086
  • Legacy Psycho Blue Ranger – 177088
  • Legacy In Space Black Ranger – 177074
  • Legacy In Space Blue Ranger – 177078
  • Legacy In Space Pink Ranger – 177082
  • Legacy In Space Red Ranger – 177076
  • Legacy In Space Yellow Ranger – 177080

There is currently no ETA on when these will be released but our assumption is sometime this winter if not very early in 2019. It is important to note that just because these items are listed in the system does NOT mean that they will be releasing, only that the manufacturer has solicited the items to retailers in preparation to begin taking orders for fulfillment.

With no listing for Psycho Pink or Psycho Yellow, the fears that those figures never made it past the early prototype stage before Bandai America pulled the plug are beginning to rise. Our fingers are crossed that they show up eventually, sometime, in someone’s system. But with the clock ticking until Hasbro’s official release date of product, the chances are growing slimmer.
