under Power Rangers

A VERY interesting new rumor has just hit the Web!

An article in USA Today noticed by the good people at RangerCrew describes the 22nd Season of Power Rangers to begin in 2015 as “Power Rangers Dino Charge.” The story-

In Dino Charge, the Paragon Prisms were given to a dozen dinosaurs for safe keeping by an alien, but they were lost when asteroids hit the Earth and wiped out the dinos. Now in the present day, an intergalactic bounty hunter starts sniffing around Earth looking for the Prisms in order to harness their power and annihilate the world, so a team of Power Rangers forms to find the Prisms first and fight the bounty hunter and other threats with dino-powered swords, blasters, Zords (in Power Rangers lingo, large fighting machines) and Megazords

If this is indeed true it means Saban has skipped Go-Busters source footage and is moving right to Kyoryuger- which we previously heard was not allowed based on their current licensing agreement with Toei. Curiouser and curiouser…

The most recent catalog scans also give us a few hints about the future of Kamen Rider Gaim!

In addition to closer looks at the upcoming DJ Gun and Kachidoki Lock Seed we saw previously, a brand-new type of Lock Seed is shown in scans. This appears to feature several fruit flavors on a rotating base, along with a new holder that fits in the Sengoku Driver after removing the faceplate similar to Jinba Lemon Arms. Could Gaim’s final form involve shifting between multiple Arms in combat without swapping Lock Seeds? Time will tell! This new lock also appears to be the rumored “key” necessary to unlock the Kachidoki.

A minor teaser for the Arms Change line is included in the scans. While Gaim Kachidoki Arms remains in shadow, we have a clear look at Energy Rider Duke! Duke is, as expected, a remold of Baron & Mango Arms. Release date to be confirmed.

Lastly, the catalog also reveals two special edition Lock Seeds featuring Gaim & Kamen Rider 1 to commemorate the “Hesei VS Showa Movie War!”

Things are just rolling right along for Ressha Sentai ToQGer!

This latest round of scans reveals ToQ 6, who appears to be an ORANGE RANGER! 6’s identity is not yet confirmed but he will apparently transform using a modified smartphone.

ToQ6’s Robo is officially named Diesel Oh, made up of Diesel, Tank & Car Carrier Ressha.  This mecha is shown off in these scans, along with more new add-on vehicles based on a police train and a fire train from the look of it. The combined form of Diesel Oh and ToQ Oh is Cho ToQ Oh!

ToQ 6’s henshin device is known as the Appli Changer, it has four apps for ToQ 6 to use. Call Button, Drill Ressha Button, Build Ressha Button and the Transformation Button. To transform, he presses the Transform Button, the phone slides open and reveals a set of tracks. Which then allows you to slide a Ressha across the tracks sort of like a key card.

Finally, ToQGer will be receiving other add-on Legacy Mecha based on previous shows! Revealed thus far are train engines based on Gabutyra from Kyoryuger, Go-Buster Ace from Go-Busters and most shocking of all, the DEN-LINER from Kamen Rider Den-O! An ultimate crossover recreated through merchandise & the show hasn’t even begun yet!

Let’s hope there will be lots more awesome things down the track for ToQGer this year!
