We’ll continue to update this thread as we and our friends at Rangercrew continue to discover more information about this exciting new toyline.

NYCC 2014 is under way and our team on the ground continues to bring us images of all items currently on display! Stopping by Bandai of America’s booth the team has snapped images of the currently displayed upcoming Power Rangers Dino Charge products including:

  • Dino Charge Megazord
  • Dino Charge Morpher/Gun
  • Dino Chargers

Check back with us through the day for more updates on your favorite upcoming Power Rangers products!

Thanks to the always helpful nightmere10 on twitter and his PowerScoop blog, we finally know the names of the Dino Charge rangers!

Actress Camille Hyde (Dino Charge Pink) posted a now deleted photo to her instagram showing the names of the 5 rangers with the actors signatures on a poster. It looks like most of the names originally mentioned in the Dino Charge casting sides used through the casting process have made it into final production. Some of the names have been changed from their placeholders though.  The final team line-up is as follows:

  • Dino Charge Red – Tyler (played by Brennan Mejia)
  • Dino Charge Blue – Koda (played by Yoshi Sudarso)
  • Dino Charge Green – Riley (played by Michael Taber)
  • Dino Charge Black – Chase (played by James Davies)
  • Dino Chrage Pink – Shelby (played by Camille Hyde).

Seeing as 3 of the 5 names from the casting sides made their way into shooting some of the other information provided by the original casting sides could still make it into the show as well. Reports claim that Black/Chase will indeed ride a skateboard as the sides indicated. With the names of the initial 5 rangers now known, it’s only a matter of time before we start hearing some of the plot details for Power Rangers Dino Charge as well!

You didn’t think we were done did you? We took a ton of pictures of everything over the course of Power Morphicon 2014 and we’re still catching up! Alongside our previous pics of the upcoming Power Rangers Dino Charge Megazord, the Power Rangers Dino Charge Morpher and Sword, and the Power Rangers Dino Charge Bike with Red Ranger Figure, we are pleased to bring you 35 pictures of the upcoming 5″ Power Rangers Dino Charge Figures!

Important note right off the bat – these are painted prototypes. These are not finalized as of this exact moment and you will see in the pictures just how hand-painted they are. Their weapons are most likely going to be the bright neon yellow color that you see – it’s the same color used in the actual roleplay sword from an earlier picture gallery we did. While many are put off by super bright colors, I personally think it matches with the bright colors that this show is giving. It can’t be worse than pitch-black that we got with Power Rangers Super Megaforce.

The foot soldier and the Americanized version of DoGold do not have official names at the moment – simply “villain” and “foot soldier” for the time being. The amount of detailing on those two figures is pretty impressive – we especially love the attention to detail in what will be the first available figure for the DoGold character. All of this, of course, is from Zyuden Sentai Kyoryuger, the series that is being adapted to create Power Rangers Dino Charge.

What are your thoughts? Join in our discussion on the forums. Are you going to pick up these 5″ figures? Do they look okay or do you think they need more detail? Sound off and let us know Ranger Nation!

One of the most debated items from this year’s San Diego Comic Con 2014 was the individual zords that make up the Power Rangers Dino Charge Megazord. As you may recall, the triceratops belonging to the Pink Ranger was colored purple, and the statement made to us was that a pink colored component on a toy targeted to boys wouldn’t sell. Thanks to ODot92 from RangerCrew.com, we learned that Bandai of America had changed their tune due to fan outrage and had decided to color it pink instead. As Power Morphicon went forward, Bandai of America changed their reasoning, saying that the triceratops was simply colored wrong from the manufacturer and was always meant to be pink. To showcase their change, it was purposely put at the front and middle of their display as every attendee walked in to the convention floor. What is the truth in the story? Who knows and frankly who cares – we have a pink triceratops again and that is all that matters!

Now, Bandai of America uses the Zord Builder feature on all their zords. That poses a slight problem with the Japanese counterpart from Zyuden Sentai Kyoryuger, which relies on the batteries to make the actual connection to the other zords. With that in mind, we asked Bandai of America what purpose the Chargers will have in the toy line since they will be sticking with the Zord Builder combination feature.

For starters, each zord will have a feature to be unlocked by using the charger. The Red Ranger‘s zord will have the “spike hairs” pop up, the Blue Ranger‘s zord will have the spikes on the back of the body stand up, and the Pink Ranger‘s zord will have the drill pop out from the tail. At this time, there are no plans to have the Chargers unlock sound in the Megazord.

Once again, if this is a deal breaker for you, we suggest importing the Zyuden Sentai Kyoryuger version of this figure now before prices go up as they always tend to do when the Power Rangers version comes out. But please check out 40 images of the Power Rangers Dino Charge Megazord. We tried to get as many different angles of the combined form for you so you can make your own judgement on this upcoming figure. Please join our discussion thread and share your thoughts!

It’s time to get ready and charge up our coverage of Power Morphicon! 

Veteran to the Power Rangers franchise and executive producer for Dino Charge, Judd “Chip” Lynn”, was kind enough to share an incredible Dino Charge teaser video at the just concluded Saban Brands’ Panel.  This teaser has it all. Shots of our rangers in action, of the pre-historic dinosaurs guarding the mystical Energems, and our very first look at a brand new villain, completely original to Dino Charge! This new as yet unnamed character does not originate from any Sentai footage! IT IS CURRENTLY UNKNOWN IF THIS IS A NEW VILLAIN TO THE SERIES OR IF THIS WAS CREATED SIMPLY FOR THE MARKETING TRAILER. SABAN BRANDS DID NOT VERIFY.

On top of that, while our own Kickback was behind the camera catching the teaser video, he also spun around to give us an HD look at the new rangers themselves! Introduced to attendees, and the world, for the first time are the Power Rangers Dino Charge! 

Be sure to follow the new Power Rangers Dino Charge on social media as well! Thanks to Nightmere10 of the Power Scoop for compiling this info!

Power Morphicon continues in sunny Pasadena California! And kicking off today’s festivities our men on the inside, Kickback & Trekkieb47, just attended the Saban Brand’s Panel! 

Here’s the breakdown of the information they had to share, with images!

  • Shout! Factory has skipped this panel in favor of the MMPR one.
  • Andrew Gray discussed actor  inspired rewrites. Quoted as saying “There will be a lot more explanation” to a huge crowd cheer. More easter eggs  for fans with the final episodes.
  • Full Power Rangers Dino Charge Cast revealed! A first for the franchise, we have an African American Pink Ranger played by Camille Hyde! Character names yet to be revealed at this time however.
  • Apparently the Dino Charge video showed a new unique villain not adapted from Kyoryuger footage.
  • However Chaos from Kyoryuger confirmed to be the Bounty Hunter Sludge for Dino Charge

Courtesy as always of @razzle1337 on twitter, we have some more new Power Rangers toy images!

On the Dino Charge side of things we have our very first look at the upcoming Dino Charge rangers 6-pack! But wait! That’s not a Gold Ranger in the 6th spot, but instead a villain. Astute fans of Kyoryuger will no doubt recognize this character as Dogold from the Deboss Army and understand why he’s been included in this set. His Power Rangers counterpart name has yet to be confirmed. Also included is the combined team weapon also yet to be named (Kentrospiker in Kyoryuger). And we also catch a glimpse of the Dino Charge Red Ranger mask from the Ranger Training set!

For Super Megaforce there’s actually quite a few new images to behold!

  • All of the Wave 4 Ranger Keys packs. Mighyt Morphin, Operation Overdrive, Alien Rangers, Jungle Fury, Dino Thunder, RPM!
  • 12″ figures of Megaforce Red & Super Megaforce Silver Rangers.
  • Ultimate Legendary Megazord 3-pack! This massive 3-pack will contain the Legendary Megazord, Q-Rex Megazord, & Turbo Falconzords all needed to create the final Ultimate combination!

These images are a bit grainy for the time being but you can bet that we’ll be seeing these upcoming items at San Diego Comic-Con. And of course remember that TokuNation will be there on the show floor covering all of your tokusatsu needs! Be sure to follow the whole TokuNation news team:
