This here is our first look at an upcoming ToyTokyo.com exclusive – a translucent Mighty Morphin Green Ranger vinyl figure from The Loyal Subjects!

Also pictured are the first in-package shots of the upcoming San Diego Comic Con 2015 exclusives from The Loyal Subjects – including the translucent Mighty Morphin Red Ranger, translucent Mighty Morphin Blue Ranger, and the metallic version of the Mighty Morphin Pink Ranger vs Rita Repulsa set!

The Dino Chargers are gold in color and feature the faces of all the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers as well as colored emblems representing their Dino Zord. This item is limited to 700 pieces and will retail for $30.

Teased mere days ago in Bandai of America’s offerings for San Diego Comic-Con 2015, one of the mystery items has been officially unveiled!

For sale exclusively at the Bandai of America booth for SDCC 2015 is the White Ranger Tokyo Vinyl Figure! This figure will retail for the reasonable price of $25. With only 2 items yet to be officially revealed yet and the convention itself less than 1 month away we should see the rest of the reveals in the very near future!

For now file this one under the maybe category.

Bandai of America revealed a cryptic teaser for their San Diego Comic-Con 2015 exclusives just last week. And while we have a good idea what those 4 items are (1 of them confirmed to be non-toku) we may have a new item in the mix. An ebay listing has just been discovered for what appears to be a Loyal Subjects Mighty Morphin Red Ranger vinyl cast in translucent red plastic. While we haven’t heard about this figure being available at SDCC yet, it could be a similar case to the translucent Ranger Keys that were passed out at the show last year where select attendees received them.

For now feel free to speculate on the claim that this is an SDCC 2015 figure. As a Loyal Subjects item it wouldn’t be part of BOA’s pre-show reveals so right now we have no way to confirm it’s validity. As SDCC approaches (July 9th-12th) news will begin to trickle out about the upcoming exclusives, as it does we’ll be there to share all the information with you! And be sure to follow TokuNation as we report LIVE from SDCC yet again!

Did you know that San Diego Comic Con 2015 is barely a month away? We’re headed there once again for the third year in a row to give you the most in-depth coverage of everything at the show including interviews with Bandai of America and Saban Brands and other manufacturers of your favorite Power Rangers toys!

Today on Instagram, Bandai of America teased out four blacked out images stating that they will begin revealing the exclusives for this year’s SDCC later this week. But thanks to site contributor and Ranger Nation member @trekkieb47, we’ve been able to deduce exactly the four exclusive items that are coming from Bandai of America!

Now – we can’t say they’re confirmed, or at least, we can’t confirm the details. But we have a pretty good idea. They are as follows:

  • A Legacy Saba Sword repaint (most likely gold like every other Legacy item they’ve done)
  • A set of Ranger Keys (box is similar to last year’s set and the logo appears to be that of the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers The Movie, making them Movie Ranger Keys?)
  • Another Tokyo Vinyl Pop figure, most likely the White Mighty Morphin Power Ranger (the last two years saw Mighty Morphin Red & Green)
  • A Doraemon figure (to which the Internet said “…a what?!”)

This marks the third year in a row where the Mighty Morphin Green Ranger and/or White Ranger has more or less dominated the exclusives, causing the fans to groan out once more, “STOP FOCUSING ON ONE CHARACTER FROM ONE SERIES OVER 20 YEARS AGO!”

What do you think of this year’s exclusives? Sound off in our discussion thread and make your predictions – see if you’re right or if we’re right!! Special thanks to Rangerboard.com for the better quality original teaser image!

The Realm Cast has reported that Thai company Chaiyo has formed a new company called Ultraman USA Inc. They will be bringing over Ultraman series on blu-ray stateside, in addition to high end collectibles. For those of you who like dubbed releases, you’re in luck. Dubbing is planned in addition to subtitles.

The blu-ray releases include the following:

– Blu Ray release: One of the first orders they plan to execute is the blu ray release of Ultra Q, Ultraman, UltraSeven, Return of Ultraman, Ultraman Ace and Ultraman Taro along with Jamborg Ace. This will be the first time any of these shows have seen proper blu ray release stateside, in addition to a proper release of Return, Ace, Taro and Jamborg in the US. The plan is to add an English dialog track with the releases for those who have a difficult time with subtitles.

In addition, 2 new movies were announced:

Ultraman VS Gomora in Japan Olympic 2020

Jamborg Ace VS Ninja Panda

“Modern Hollywood special effects” are planned for use in lieu of an actor in a suit.
