Hasbro Pulsecon is happening right now and the Power Rangers brand panel just wrapped!  Coverage focused on the Omega Rangers and Master Morpher exclusives, plus the upcoming season of the show.

Shown today were the Omega Rangers 4 pack for the Power Rangers Lightning Collection, as well as the Lightning Collection Master Morpher!  Neither one of these items were surprising, seeing as they’ve already been released around the world, but it was nice to see them officially revealed and know that they’re available starting at 4pm ET today for Pulse Premium members at HasbroPulse.com.

Two years ago, writer Mat Groom (Mighty Morphin, Marvel’s Ultraman, Image’s Self/Made) and artist Erica D’Urso (Captain Marvel, Xena: Warrior Princess) launched their co-created graphic novel superhero, Inferno Girl Red, on Kickstarter and took the comics world and tokusatsu community by storm!  The book was fully funded and then some and even managed to see an actual retail release at comic book stores.  To say it was a success is simply not true – it was a massive hit!  And now it’s time to relive the magic with the Inferno Girl Red Book 2 Kickstarter!

With a needed funding goal of $85,000, Inferno Girl Red Book 2 looks to continue the story of Cássia Costa after the dramatic events from the first Inferno Girl Red book.  Mat Groom and Erica D’Urso return as co-creators and as writer and artist, but they’re not alone!  Rejoining the group from the first book is Igor Monti on colors, Becca Carey on letters, Kyle Higgins as editor, and Michael Busuttil as the glue that kind of puts it all together.

You can back Inferno Girl Red Book 2 by clicking here.

Inferno Girl Red is Cássia Costa, a teenager trying to live her best life who just happens to end up becoming a superhero.  Inspired partly by tokusatsu such as Power Rangers and Kamen Rider, Inferno Girl Red is something that any tokusatsu fan will enjoy.  Check out some of the reward perks below!

Thanks to Toy Scope on Facebook, we have our first look at the upcoming Power Rangers Lightning Collection Master Morpher! This roleplay item was featured exclusively in the 25th anniversary episode “Dimensions in Danger”, as Tommy Oliver used it to morph in to all his different Power Rangers forms.

It was also featured in the graphic novel Soul of the Dragon as well as the upcoming 30th Anniversary Special comic from BOOM! Studios.

Pricing and release details are unknown. Fan speculation is that this item will be revealed for release at Hasbro Pulsecon at the end of this month. However, with the toy line currently on hiatus, who knows if this item even sees release.

Stay tuned.

Today marks the 30th anniversary of the first episode airing of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers.  To commemorate such a momentous occasion, Hasbro has put up a brand new t-shirt of the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers team and Dino Megazord on HasbroPulse!

The t-shirt is created by MAD Engine Global, part of MAD Engine Inc., which is an apparel licensee of Hasbro and Power Rangers specifically.

Fans have already notated, however, that some of the images (the Red Ranger and Dino Megazord specifically) are simple traces from previously released product or product images, and features very little to no new art.

You can purchase the item at HasbroPulse.com.
