Shout! Factory has reported a production delay in the Power Rangers Legacy boxset, due to a potential quality issue in the helmet design.
Previously scheduled for release in December, the new official release date is January 2nd, 2014.
Fans will just have to wait a bit longer to own these first twenty years on DVD.
The man who stayed on top of everything toy related for Power Rangers Super Megaforce, our friend raz (follow him on Twitter @razzle1337), has been hounding Toys’R’Us computers for weeks. He delivered the controversial list of items a few weeks back, and noted there was a listing for Super Megaforce Black Friday Pallet.
According to a tweet of his this afternoon, that pallet has arrived in the Southern California and Texas distribution centers for Toys’R’Us, with a few scattered throughout the rest of the country (except the east coast, which shows a count of negative 60?). The online website is also apparently showing some stock of Legendary Megazords, but at this time, cannot be located on the site itself (this information comes from stock searches at Toys’R’Us computers). Most stores have put in orders for Legendary Morphers, Battle Gear, and 6.5″ Figures.
We could be anywhere from days to a week or two away from the retail release of Power Rangers Super Megaforce, which is the US adaption of Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger, which features the Power Rangers turning in to all previous Power Rangers to defeat the bad guys.
Are you excited yet? Stay tuned for more details!
Revealed just this evening by our friends Fury Diamond and RangerCrew comes the box art for Shout! Factory’s Seasons 13 to 17 set of Power Rangers! The set includes Power Rangers SPD, Power Rangers Mystic Force, Power Rangers Operation Overdrive, Power Rangers Jungle Fury, and Power Rangers RPM!
To check out what bonus features are included, check out the story at Samurai Cast Blog, the blog of Fury Diamond of RangerCrew.com!
Special thanks again to Fury Diamond!

Kyoryu Sentai Zyuranger and Mighty Morphin’ Power Rangers, two shows that will forever be remembered in the tokusatsu community. One for the innovation and originality it brought to a well established franchise, and the other for it’s meteoric start to one of the most popular children’s entertainment franchises in western media. Both of these beloved shows continue to receive attention as Power Rangers reaches it’s 20th Anniversary, and the Zyurangers are set to appear in the Kyoryuger VS. Go-Busters film!
Of course Bandai can’t resist making dreams come true for fans of both of these franchises. So today we take a look at their latest release with an extensive gallery of S.H. Figuarts Ptera Ranger or as we also know her the Mighty Morphin’ Pink Ranger! Ptera comes with her Ranger Slinger, Ranger Stick, Ptera Bow & Arrow, and 3 extra sets of hands.
This exquisite figure captures the essence of the 3 amazing women to don the costume in both franchises. Be sure to follow Reiko Chiba/Mei[/URL] & Amy Jo Johnson/Kimberly[/URL] on twitter, and Catherine Sutherland/Kat[/URL] on facebook!

A few new Power Rangers books have been listed on Amazon! One is due out later this month, with the others due out between now and May 2014. The books are:
Mighty Morphin Power Rangers #1: Rita Repulsa’s Attitude Adjustment
When an ancient stone idol comes to life and starts blasting everything in its path with a morphing ray, it looks like the world is in pretty deep trouble; but it’s nothing compared to the havoc unleashed when Rita Repulsa gets her hands on it! The Mighty Morphin Power Rangers join the fray, but this new baddie has extra muscle from Squatt and the Putty Patrol. If the team doesn’t get a little help of their own from a trusted friend, this latest mission may be their last!
Twenty years ago, the Power Rangers burst on the scene in an explosion of colorful combat, bizarre monsters, incredible robot battles, and Megazord-sized fun, spawning a global phenomenon and an ever-expanding storytelling universe. Papercutz is proud to present the long-awaited continuing adventures of the team that started it all!
Power Rangers Megaforce: Robo Knight![/URL]

Every season, a breakout character steals the spotlight, and this season is no exception. This 8×8 focuses on the mysterious origin of the hero ROBO KNIGHT!
Power Rangers Megaforce #4: Broken World[/URL]
The Power Rangers must battle one of their most powerful foes yet: Fokion, a monstrous soldier under the direct command of Creepox, with the ability to absorb, concentrate, and spread radiation. When a nuclear-powered particle accelerator becomes active, the Rangers must contain the dreaded Fokion before the situation blows up in their faces!

Do you like Tokunation’s big month of galleries in honor of Power Rangers Wild Force? Well it’s about to get bigger with the BIG DX Gao Lion from Hyakuju Sentai Gaoranger!
This enlarged version of Gao Lion appeared in Quest 43 when the Gaorangers were trapped in the Org Spirit Realm. Tetom desired the chance to cook for them one last time, and put all her hopes and prayers into a final treat which she gave to Gaolion. It’s energies allowed him to grow to massive proportions, large enough that along with Gao Falcon Shark Tiger & Elephant they became the great hero, Gao Centaurus!
This beastly combo was also used to defeat the third Highness Duke Org and appears very briefly in the Go-Busters Vs. Gokaiger movie. It’s one of the alternate Mecha Gokai Changes used by Go-Buster Li-Oh. As you can see the toy itself dwarfs the original figure and it’s slightly larger than the Gokaiger version of Gaolion which came out 15 years later.
