It’s that time of year once again for the comic & toy convention season to get under way! And getting the ball rolling on both fronts is the upcoming Lexington Comic & Toy Con, from March 13th-15th! What began in 2012 as a con that garnered over 1000 guests has flourished in the years since to it’s height now, attracting upwards of 20,000 guests from the around the midwest & southeast!

What’s even more impressive is how the guest list for this con has grown from featuring just a few of your favorite Power Rangers actors, to being one of the nations premiere selections of ranger actors! This year the convention staff have pulled out all the stops to offer the BIGGEST selection of Power Rangers, & Indeed Super Sentai actors, possible! Not to mention a few other fantastic bonuses for Ultraman fans! Check out the full guest list as it pertains to the tokusatsu fandom below, as maintained by our very own uchihabro77! 

Aside from this star studded guest list, LexCon is also an opportunity for fans to make real world connections. As I’ve done in years past I will of course be there repping for TokuNation.com & the Talkin Toku Podcast. But many other groups and personalities in the tokusatsu fandom will also be in attendance like trekkieb47 of Ranger Command Power Hour and RiderJetfire of Dans Toku Rants. If you’re going to be in attendance be sure to post in our Lexington Comic & Toy Con 2015 thread. We’ll see you there!

Announced on the LexCon facebook page comes word that Yuta Mochizuki known for his role as Tyranno Ranger in Kyoryu Sentai Zyurager has sadly had to cancel his LexCon appearance for this year. Mr Mochizuki has become severely ill and unfortunately can’t make the trip to the states for now.

The silver lining to this sad situation though is that another Zyuranger actor will be taking his place. None other than Aohisa Takayasu AKA Mammoth Ranger! We certainly send our best wishes to Mr. Mochizuki and hope for a swift recovery, in the interim though be sure to head to the Lexington Comic & Toy Con from March 13th-15th to meet Mr. Takayasu!

Check out the images of the upcoming Power Rangers Dino Charge T-Rex Feature Zord!

This is the Zord Reveal that was teased in yesterday’s press release from Bandai of America. The T-Rex Feature Zord features electronic sounds and gimmicks very reminiscent of the Transformers Age of Extinction figure Stomp & Chomp Grimlock so that should give you a fair idea of how it functions.

The “packaged” sample on display on the wall above the actual figure has a place holder in the box and is not the actual toy. In fact it’s the DX Bandai of Japan Gabutyra funnily enough. But the larger T-Rex Zord with the handle is what we’re getting.
