Another tidbit was given to us from Saban Brands regarding the Gold Ranger. The Examiner.com was given an in-depth expose of the new character to the Power Rangers. We’ll give you a brief run down so you can be up to speed! Then check out the awesome images that were sent to us by Saban Brands for the arrival of the latest Gold Ranger to the team!

Ivan, the Gold Ranger, found the Gold Energem 800 years ago. He was ambushed by the villain Fury and imprisoned within him, but not before he bonded with the power of the Gold Energem. With help from the Power Rangers Dino Charge, Ivan was able to break out of his prison inside Fury and joins the team. Ivan values honesty and loyalty above all other traits and practices them himself through and through. Because he missed 800 years, he adds a sense of innocence to the team much like Koda the Blue Ranger. He wields the Ptera Morpher and Ptera Saber, and calls upon the Ptera Zord which transforms in to the Ptera Charge Megazord to fight with the other Power Rangers!

We received some production stills for the next episode of Power Rangers Dino Charge titled “Knight After Knights”. The episode features Ivan the Gold Ranger trying to decide whether or not to join the team of the Power Rangers – and unfortunately, the monster Bones shows up and starts stealing the Rangers’ back-bones, making them look like cowards.

Can Shelby the Pink Ranger convince Ivan to still join the team as well as to save the others? The brand new episode airs Saturday, September 19th on Nickelodeon. Click the title of the story to check out the episode production stills provided to us by Saban Brands for the Power Force, of which we are a part of. We’ve also included the preview clip below!

Because this episode accidentally uploaded to Nick.com early, many fans have already seen the episode. For those that have, we’ve linked our episode poll and discussion for the episode in the forums and have left it open so you can begin discussing the episode. For everyone else – please join us on Saturday morning!

As you may or may not be aware, new episodes of Power Rangers Dino Charge are currently airing in Latin America, meaning by the time new episodes begin airing here in the United States, Latin America will be three episodes ahead of us. Unfortunately, that means they will have some big reveals before they are seen here in the United States, and that means that social media will destroy your hopes of NOT knowing about it (if that is your goal).

So we here at TokuNation.com are doing our best NOT to spoil it for you – but we are also a news organization that makes a living on reporting news, and casting information is a pretty big deal in this fan community. So we’re going to go ahead and post the identity of the actor who is playing the Dino Charge Gold Ranger, but not in the story brief – you’ll have to click “READ MORE” to get the full reveal. Keep in mind – clicking the title of this story will take you to the spoilers.

So to find out who is playing Ivan the Power Rangers Dino Charge Gold Ranger, simply click “READ MORE”. When you’ve done that, click here to discuss the revelation of the actor playing the Gold Ranger.

Rounding out our coverage of San Diego Comic Con 2015 we have a couple gems to share with you. Our own Kickback just sat down with Bandai of America for an interview on current & upcoming products and a few other goodies fans have been clamoring for with Power Rangers Legacy & Dino Charge.

Starting things off we discussed Power Rangers Legacy items. These releases were apparently never meant to be chronological like collectors had assumed, it happened to just turn out that way. Bandai knows that the Ninja & Shogun Megazords as well as the Falconzord are all very obvious choices for the future. Power Rangers Zeo is also internally very popular. They also think a Legacy Gold Zeo Ranger Staff is a interesting idea ;) Legacy Tor was mentioned as well but as a whole they don’t want to destroy collectors’ wallets.

The Thunder Megazord shown at SDCC should be able to assumed the Assault Team sled mode, but they’ll get with their designers and give us an answer post-con. The Legacy Blade Blaster displayed was entirely a mock-up as the retail version wasn’t ready yet. They would like to do a role play item and a mech/figure item together if possible kinda like Saba and Tigerzord. Again they don’t want to break the bank. Fans have also asked recently about a Black & Gold Dragonzord, so we posed that question to Bandai. There response is “would fans buy it?”

For Dino Charge Bandai still asserts that if a Ranger appears in show, of which there’s likely to be 11 between DC & Supercharge, then there’s a very good chance to see it in toy form.  When asked about any possible gender swaps or sash swaps in the show, they referred back to the first answer. Bandai is also taking this position with Megazords, if it appears in the show footage it’s very likely to receive a toy. Villain figures are a key point of interest to Bandai as well since this is the first time since MMPR that waves are predominantly villains. Poisandra however is still cloudy. While Bandai is looking into it, it depends entirely on the characters trajectory in the show. They simply don’t know currently. The same can be said for why no Supercharge items were displayed – if it hasn’t been revealed in the show then they can’t necessarily show it in toy form without approval from Saban Brands.

Fans of Ranger Keys from Super Megaforce will also be sobered a bit.  Currently no plans for more Ranger Keys as the play pattern is no longer current.  Speaking of exclusives Bandai confirmed that they are upping their game for New York Comic Con to match the cons size. They will have an exclusive of some kind for this years show.

Bandai of America takes the fan opinion very seriously. They also want to cater to collectors and use the Legacy line as well as conventions to try and do that. They encourage fans to let them know what they think at conventions and such.

We’d like to thank Bandai of America for their time over the weekend for answering our questions and being awesome in general. The team is super excited for the future and can’t wait to show you what’s in store next. They hope you’ll come see them at this year’s NYCC.

More coverage is rolling in from San Diego Comic Con 2015! Just now our own Kickback and the SDCC network crew attended Saban Brand’s Entertainment’s Power Rangers Dino Charge panel! Presented below is a round up of the information from that panel as well as pictures from it!

The core cast of 5 rangers & Claire entered the panel each with their own unique spin on things, like Yoshi doing a flip & Camille punching the air. The panel began with some basic info about the actors like how this SDCC was Camille, Michael, James & Claires first ever, and how all were very excited. Everyone discussed their favorite seasons of the franchise. We got some insight into how Yoshi came from fan/stunt actor to full blown Power Ranger. Some great fun stories about each of the actors as well, like James being a terrible tour guide in his native New Zealand. The crowd and fans everywhere agree, this cast is fantastic and fun in person.

Chip Lynn along with Saban Brands Entertainment EP Brian Castatinni then took stage to assure fans that in future episodes we would see more rangers and that the joke was on us, things we thought they missed? They didn’t. According to him there are “no bad episodes this season”. Chip restated in no uncertain terms that “When this season is done, you’re going to say they were some of the best episodes of Power Rangers EVER.” The crowd was pleased and ready for more. After dashing hopes about past Dino Rangers ever returning we were treated to 2 videos. One a fall Dino Charge episodes trailer, which at last revealed it’s August 29th return date! And another which was a 2016 trailer for Dino Supercharge, the footage was actually reused from the Licensing Expo Marketing Teaser.

While we didn’t get to see the people behind the suits these video treated us to Gold, Purple, & Graphite Ranger footage! And after this 5 suit actors arrived wearing the brand new Dino Drive power up suits from Dino Supercharge!

The above article contains a round up of the pertinent information from the panel. Please click “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this page to check out the full breakdown of the panel in tweet form.
