The Lexington Comic & Toy Con has been quickly gaining steam the last few years as one of the biggest and best east coast conventions for Power Rangers fans and actors. Well this year the show’s growing once again with a recent announcement of four brand new guests!

Yuta Mochizuki – Geki/Tyranno Ranger from Kyoryu Sentai Zyuranger! This is notable as only the second US convention appearance that Yuta has made. The first having only been a few months ago at Power Morphicon!

Rekio Chiba – Mei/Ptera Ranger from Kyoryu Sentai Zyuranger! The first EVER appearance by Ms Chiba at a US convention! If you know her at all then you know that Reiko Chiba has been incredibly active on Twitter (@CHIBAREI_DURGA) for a long time and interacts with fans regularly. In fact she had cryptically tweeted about this upcoming appearance a few weeks ago but saved the official reveal for the LCTC facebook page.

Bin Furuya – A veteran of several Toho film productions for many years, a suit actor on the original Ultra Q series and subsequently the suit actor of the Original Ultraman! Mr Furuya is a veteran of the highest order in the Tokusatsu world.

And last but not least, Paul Freeman – Ivan Ooze in the original Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: The Movie! Of course Mr Freeman is an actor with an incredibly lengthy resume of credits, but we know him best for his deliciously crazy portrayal of Ivan ooze.

Dino Cycle Charger! Engage! Energize!

TokuNation is ready to present the final of a trio of Power Rangers Dino Charge galleries. At long last we’re ready to show off the Dino Charge Dino Cycle with Blue Ranger gallery!

Just like the Dino Cycle with Black Ranger this one differs from the initial offering with a new alternate blue and silver paint scheme to really set it apart. Though not a color scheme that appears in the Kyoryuger source footage nor one we’re likely to see in Dino Charge, this Dino Cycle helps add a bit of variety to the line and to your collection. Of course like the previous two Dino Cycles this one can still separate into it’s 2 unique Deinonychus components as well as accommodate 5″ Power Rangers figures. And the Dino Cycle also incorporates the Zord Builder system! Best of all is that if you’ve been after the elusively expensive and rare Deinochaser toy, the Dino Cycle is a great stand-in that even scales well with your S.H. Figuarts Kyoryugers! Though one in these particular colors may not be for every collector.

Following along from today’s full hi-res reveal of DX Shurikenjin from Shuriken Sentai Ninninger, we have an update on the first 2 additional mecha of the series!

The first of two additional releases in the line, subtitled オトモ忍シリーズ or Otomo Shinobi, is DX Paonmaru! Paonmaru is a large green elephant in his individual mode. Much like Shinobimaru and Dragomaru, Paonmaru also has a unique sort of inner robot can take a seat in the throne on Shurikenjin’s chest. Meanwhile the rest of him forms new armor, a Shuriken helmet, & a large sword for the newly dubbed Shurikinjin Paon to wield!

The second release in the Otomo Shinobi line is so far the most unique mecha for Ninninger, DX UFOmaru! As the name implies UFOmaru is indeed a saucer-esque space ship! As with Paonmaru, UFOmaru has a unique individual inner robot mode as well that allows him to sit on Shinobimaru’s throne. Meanwhile the rest of him becomes a new Shuriken helmet and a large 3-barreled cannon! This form is known as Shurikenjin UFO.

Stay tuned as yet more details of the 39th sentai, Shuriken Sentai Ninninger, are revealed!

After a series of blurry images we finally have an incredible hi-res look at the main mecha of the 39th Super Sentai series Shuriken Sentai Ninninger!

DX Shurikenjin is already shaping up to be one of the most impressive sentai robos in years. As initial information suggested Shurikenjin is made up of 5 individual machines of various types. Shinobimaru (ninja), Dragomaru (dragon), Dumpmaru (dump truck), Wanmaru (dog), & Byunmaru (train).

This new hi-res images not only confirms this information but also how the Shinobi Shuriken swapping gimmick works in regards to Shurikenjin’s helmets and forms, very much reminiscent of Chouriki Sentai Ohranger. 

This image also shows the first of Shurikenjin’s many alternate forms, Shurikenjin Drago! In this combination, SHinobimaru & Dragomaru swap places from chest to arm as Dragonmaru takes the throne. His Shuriken then becomes the new head of this dragon-esque form.

At last some new images for the 39th Super Sentai Series have come online!We now have full images of several key elements in the Shuriken Sentai Ninninger merchandise catalog, including:

*The Ninningers’ main weapon and changer, the Shinobi Ichibangatana -a sword that all five Ninningers take into combat.

*As reported previously, this years’ primary collector gimmick involves Shinobi Shurikens that can unlock new powers, weapons and can create new weapons and features when used with individual mecha as well as DX Shurikenjin. Each Ninninger carries Shurikens in the Ninnin Buckle.

*The Ninningers also have a blaster weapon, the Gama Gama Ju– a gun shaped like a frog.

*Another piece of the Ninningers’ arsenal is the Karakuri Hengen– a massive Shuriken capable of 3 distinctive forms- Blade, Claw and Bow.

*The last new Shuriken revealed in this catalog is the Goton Shinobi Shuriken which allows the Ninningers to attack with any one of five elements: Fire, Water, Wood, Metal or Earth.

Yet more figures revealed in the initial Shuriken Sentai Ninninger toy information reported by TokuNation.com earlier this week, have had some more light shed on them!

Though this is yet another blurry image in a series of them, we have our first look at upcoming additional mecha from Ninninger! First up is DX Paonmaru, a large green elephant which can assume it’s own unique robot mode AND create a new set of armor as well as what appears to be a large broadsword for DX Shurikenjin! Includes the  Paon Shuriken as well.

Next we have the most odd entry in the series thus far, DX UFOmaru! That’s right! In a series about super heroic ninjas that already used Dump Trucks & Dragons we have a literal UFO! UFOmaru appears to have his own unique robot mode and can also become a new set of armor for DX Shurikenjin fully equipped with a triple barreled rifle! Includes the UFO Shuriken as well.

Stay tuned as yet more Ninninger catalog images begin to leak!

under Super Sentai

A leaked image has given us a close (albeit blurry) look at the mecha for 39th Super Sentai, Shuriken Sentai Ninninger!

This shot of DX Shurikenjin shows all five individual mecha- Shinobimaru, Dragonmaru, Danpumaru, Wanmaru and Byunmaru. Interestingly, the combined form appears to have multiple configurations- according to existing rumors, any one of the five Maru can become the centerpiece for the combination and Shurikenjin will have different abilities or forms based on the central component.

What this image does confirm are the Dog, Dump, & Train components initially reported exclusively here at TokuNation!

After the early reveals this week for Shuriken Sentai Ninninger, at least one sneaky Japanese fan has managed to snag a spy shot of the Shuriken Gattai DX Shurikenjin! The full Ninninger catalog should be available any time now. As more and more leaks happen they bring us one step closer to it!

For now though enjoy this image which confirms much of what we’ve seen and heard about Shurikenjin! The humanoid core robot Shinobimaru, the left arm Dragomaru, & the right arm Danpumaru! What the legs look like exactly is still suspect but we’re sure Wanmaru & Byunmaru will be revealed soon as well!
