We thought it was important to highlight the guests that have had to cancel for this year’s Official Power Morphicon in their own update in case they were tops on your list of autograph and photo-ops. Check out the current list of cancellations below.

  • Danny Slavin (Power Rangers Lost Galaxy, Red Ranger)
  • Dan Southworth (Power Rangers Time Force, Quantum Ranger)
  • Chris Violette (Power Rangers S.P.D., Blue Ranger)
  • Peta-Maree Rixon (Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: The Movie, Alpha 5)

We are sad to see these guests not being able to attend. Most of all, we are sad that the opportunity to have all six Power Rangers Time Force Rangers in attendance, along with the villains, is no longer possible. But there’s still great photo opportunities out there so please head to the Official Power Morphicon site and pre-register for your photo-ops!

UPDATE! Danny Slavin will now be appearing on Friday and Saturday at Power Morphicon! Great news for those who were upset that he had cancelled earlier.

under General Tokusatsu News

A few years ago, Kickback, Den-O, and Sentai Tamashii/Soulink decided to create a podcast centered around tokusatsu. It was originally called “Talkin Toku at the Nation“, and then shortened at some point for reasons that escape us to “Talkin Toku“. But – life happens, and Kickback and Den-O were blessed with the ability to start their own families, and the time just wasn’t there anymore to consistently release professional podcasts in a timely manner. The final episode was released in February, and all archives went dark in March of this year.

However – you can’t always keep a nerd quiet, and the urge to continue to talk about these things was too great. Thus, a new joint project between Kickback of TokuNation.com and Jmann of CollectionDX.com has resulted in the revival of Talkin Toku. Check out the announcement video below.

The planned launch episode will release the first week of September. Contributors to the show include Kickback, Den-O, Sentai Tamashii/Soulink of TokuNation.com, Jmann of CollectionDX.com, Trekkieb47 and HollywoodZ from the Ranger Command Power Hour podcast, Dan Pearce from Dan’s Toku Rants, The Ranger Talk, baltmatrix, Vangelus, Shukuen Shinobi, and ZeronXepher.

Please check out the official Talkin Toku YouTube channel and subscribe! You don’t want to miss some of the stuff we have planned!

Talkin Toku is now an independent enterprise created by and operated by Kickback and Jmann. Videos shown on this website, or any website, are simply for promotional purposes to help spread the word. To contact Talkin Toku, please visit the official Facebook page or the official @TalkinToku Twitter page. You can also E-mail us at talkintoku (at) gmail (dot) com.
