It’s another year of Power Rangers merchandise which means it’s another year for the continuation of the Armored Might sub-line of figures. Following the successful line of figures from Power Rangers Super Megaforce which included figures like the Silver Ranger, Mighty Morphin Green Ranger, and Mighty Morphin White Ranger, the first figure to be released in the Power Rangers Dino Charge line is none other than the star of the show – the Dino Charge Red Ranger.

Featuring a grand total of 12 accessories and the now commonplace heavy muscular build, this figure is able to be posed in a variety of ways. The included accessories allow you to customize your Ranger to match all of his on-screen appearances with various Dino Charger power-ups. But even this muscular hulk of a hero has his flaws.

And here’s a special treat – our own staff member baltmatrix purchased this figure and did a quick review on it. Find out his thoughts and see if they match your own with the video below.

Brave in!

TokuNation has slowly begun the process of going through it’s archive of toy galleries to revamp some of our older work and re-present to the community. This process began with our  Gokai Christmas Gallery 2.0 and today we continue it in honor of the upcoming February 7th premiere of Power Rangers Dino Charg!  It’s time to check out the S.H. Figuarts Kyoryu Red Gallery 2.0!

Released way back in October 2013, Kyoryu Red was the first figuart from Zyuden Sentai Kyoryuger, though far from the last. Kyoryu Red began a new era of consistency and detail in sentai figuarts that for the most part has remained consistent since. Daigo, includes a plethora of accessories that really make this release one of the best for 2013 and still one of the best Sentai Figuarts to date. The included Gaburevolver, Gaburicalibur, and even Gabutyra Fang & Zyudenchi allow this figure to really capture the wild flexibility and mannerisms of Kyoryu Red and look fantastic wild doing it.

Frankly S.H. Figuarts Kyoryu Red is one of my absolute favorite figures. And it’s still cheap on most secondary market websites! This figure and the remaining Kyoryugers won’t be imported by Bluefin so now’s the time to jump on it before the actual premiere of Power Rangers Dino Charge drives up demand with Western fans. For now though feel free to browse through a full 80 image gallery of this incredible figure after the jump! We’ll be back soon with 3 more Gallery 2.0’s as well focusing on the other 5 Kyoryugers!

Though most of the initial waves of Power Rangers Dino Charge product have made their way to store shelves here in the US, London Toy Fair has managed to reveal one pretty cool surprise. On display for the first time ever is the first figure from Bandai’s revitalized Mix N Morph toyline!

Tucked between various other wave 1 products we have our first actual images of the Mix N Morph White Claw Rangerzord! Unlike the Mix N Morph line of 5 years ago this line aims for figures in more of a 5″ scale along the lines of Hasbro’s Hero Mashers line. THis figure is clearly inspired by the Samurai Clawzord but with an entirely new coloration. What more can we expect from this line

Dinosaur Might, Ready to Fight!

TokuNation’s look at the worlds latest prehistoric heroes continues with a new gallery! Today we’re looking at the Power Rangers Dino Charge 5″ Red Ranger!

The inaugural release from Dino Charge’s take on the 5″ line, Dino Charge Red Ranger takes the basics established by the Super Megaforce 5″ figures and adds a layer of detailing and intricacy that was much needed. While the 5″ line is definitely more for collector’s on a budget it’s certainly not without merit and Dino Charge Red proves that. He has a fantastic range of motion, a hinged shoulder pad, intricate scaled detailing, and a pretty great likeness to his screen counterpart. Dino Charge Red also includes his Dino Saber & Dino Charge Morpher for weapons!

The good people at RangerCrew have uploaded some interesting new character bios for the upcoming Power Rangers Dino Charge season. This is our first look at the personality traits found in the new Ranger team!

*Tyler Navarro, the leader of the Rangers, is a free-spirited adventurer with a huge heart. Determined to solve the mystery of his fathers’ disappearance, this curious and energetic Ranger is nothing to mess with when it comes to defeating evil. For Tyler, making friends is easy- but will defending Earth be just as simple?

*Shelby Watkins is known to leap before she looks, and her amazing bravery is matched by her incredible knowledge of dinosaurs. She’s strong-willed, stubborn and a nightmare for any evil villain. Even though Shelby may seem pretty serious she does have a softer side… especially where the Red Ranger is concerned!

*Riley Griffin may be quiet, but his intelligence and amazing discipline speaks loud and clear. After leaving his family ranch to defend Earth, Riley’s confidence and incredible sword skills have made him a fierce member of the Ranger team. With a love for brainteasers and battling evil, Riley is one well-rounded Ranger.

*Even though Chase Randall is from New Zealand, he can feel at home anywhere as long as he’s riding his beloved skateboard. Chase may be a flirt, but meet him on the battlefield & you’ll be flirting with disaster.

*Koda is the oldest Dino Charge Ranger… by 100,000 years! It may be funny to watch this caveman maneuver the modern world, but his incredible strength and natural intuition are no laughing matter. This prehistoric Ranger has a heart of gold, and will stop at nothing to defend Earth.

While some fans may note similarities between these character outlines and the Zyuden Sentai Kyoryuger counterparts, a few new twists have been added for American audiences.

Stay tuned to TokuNation as we keep you up to date on all Dino Charge details!
