The term “third party” may be something foreign to a lot of Power Rangers fans but for fans of other popular properties (like Transformers) it is a window into a different side of collecting, receiving toys or figures that likely are never created for mass market by the official companies.  However, third party companies are UNLICENSED, meaning the figures you’re about to see are NOT sanctioned by Hasbro.  However, due to the lack of any official product releasing from Hasbro for Power Rangers now or in the foreseeable future, we’re showcasing these upcoming items.

Third party toy company SoosooToys has announced their first four figures in 1:6 scale (so roughly 12 inches) for Power Rangers.  And to the surprise of everybody, these are figures NOT based on Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, but arguably some of the most popular “sixth” or “extra” Power Rangers over the 30 years of the franchise.  These figures are all expected in the 2nd quarter of 2024 (so between May 2024 and July 2024).

– Son of Triforia (Zeo Gold Ranger)
– Green Shuriken Warrior (Ninja Storm Green Samurai Ranger)
– Black Aba Warrior (Dino Thunder Black Ranger)
– Aba Assassin (Dino Thunder White Ranger)

These figures are going to be limited in release and cost $145 ($45 due up front, $100 upon release).  You can check out links to purchase listed above, however we cannot vouch for the online retailer or SoosooToys so you buy at your own risk.

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.

Fans of the Power Rangers rejoice – arguably the biggest “Why haven’t they made this yet?” role-play toy is finally getting made and joining the product lineup for this year’s 30th anniversary of the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers.

Originally reported by The Illuminerdi and backed up by a never-before-released exert of an interview with the late Jason David Frank, Hasbro will be releasing the Master Morpher – which made its debut in the 25th anniversary episode of the franchise “Dimensions in Danger” during Power Rangers Ninja Steel – sometime this year.  While there are no official details available (the item hasn’t been officially announced), it is expected to be a GameStop exclusive and available this Fall.  In the show, the item allows Tommy Oliver to change between all five of his previous Power Rangers incarnations.

Toy leaker @LightningFigPR on Twitter has teased that the Master Morpher will come with six total coins – Dragon, Tiger, Falcon, Zeo, Turbo, and Dino Thunder.  The Master Morpher should also come with newly recorded dialogue for each morph as seen in the show.

Stay tuned for more details as they release.

The face of the Power Rangers franchise – Jason David Frank – has died.  He was 49 years old.

For thirty years, Jason David Frank has celebrated Power Rangers with fans all over the world.  First appearing in Mighty Morphin Power Rangers as the evil Green Ranger in 1993, his character “Tommy” would leave and return as the White Ranger, become the Red Ranger in Power Rangers Zeo and Power Rangers Turbo, and star in two feature films (Mighty Morphin Power Rangers The Movie and Turbo: A Power Rangers Movie).  Eleven years after his first appearance, Jason David Frank would return as the Black Ranger in Power Rangers Dino Thunder, giving the Power Rangers television franchise a much-needed boost during it’s second season under Disney Entertainment.

Jason David Frank would return twice more – once in the “Legendary Battle” episode of Power Rangers Super Megaforce, and again for the 25th anniversary episode “Dimensions in Danger” during Power Rangers Super Ninja Steel.  He also brought the evil comic book character Lord Drakkon to light in a short trailer for the BOOM! Studios Power Rangers Shattered Grid comic book event during the 25th anniversary.

At every single convention that Jason David Frank attended there would be massive lines to get pictures and autographs with, arguably, the most famous and popular Power Ranger.  Jason David Frank would make it a point to stay until the last fan in line got what they got in line for – whether it was an autograph, a picture, or just to say hello.

Jason David Frank had been working on and promoting the upcoming release of his creator-owned character via movie, Legend of the White Dragon, created with popular independent film maker Bat in the Sun (famous for “Super Hero Beat Down” YouTube shorts).  The film was set to release online in 2023.

He wasn’t perfect – nobody is – but for an entire generation of kids he was their hero. Our thoughts are with his family & friends in this difficult time.

Rest in Peace, Jason David Frank.  1973-2022

Renegade Game Studio’s Power Rangers: Heroes of the Grid tabletop game came out last month and after a successful launch they’re back at it again with another Kickstarter campaign.

We’ve known for some time now that a Power Rangers: Zeo expansion was planned thanks to a Backer’s Choice poll that was held some time ago. The Evil Robot Clone of Dino Thunder Black is present on the banner, suffice to say that an expansion based on the Power Rangers Super Ninja Steel anniversary episode: Dimensions in Danger is also quite possibly in the works.

Other details are unknown at this time, but we’ll be sure to update you once the Kickstarter goes live on September 17th 2019.

The penultimate story of Tommy Oliver and possibly his final Power Rangers story releases next month in the graphic novel Soul of the Dragon by BOOM! Studios. Following Tommy Oliver in his final Power Rangers story, he searches valiantly for his missing son, JJ, who is working with Space Patrol Delta (SPD). His past, his present, and what remains of his future will collide in this epic adventure which harkens to the classic “Old Man Logan” story from Marvel Comics.

Written by Kyle Higgins – the famed Power Rangers scribe responsible for the immensely popular and successful Shattered Grid story in the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers comic – and illustrated by Giuseppe Cafaro – this is a book that any fan of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, or the work of Kyle Higgins, do NOT want to miss.

Check out a number of preview pages for the graphic novel by clicking the title of the story. Thanks to Comic Frontline for the initial release of these images.

For 25 years the Power Rangers have been on television, on store shelves, and had its iconic theme song stuck in your head. We’re sure that more than once in the last few years have you heard a communicator “bum bum bum-bummm bum-bummm” play while you’re out and about being an adult. And in that brief moment you harken back to being a kid and racing home to watch Tommy and the other Power Rangers kick Lord Zedd‘s butt. Thus, you probably caught the Power Rangers 25th Anniversary Episode on Nickelodeon the other night – or if you haven’t then you’ve checked out all the various clips around the Internet.

Never fear – we caught the episode, recorded it ourselves, and have re-watched it numerous times. So let’s sit down and have a chat about the episode that attempts to bring back those Saturday morning feels with our comprehensive synopsis and review of Power Ranger Super Ninja Steel “Dimensions in Danger”, the Power Rangers 25th Anniversary episode!

Via Comicbook.com We have our first look at the main cover and two variants for the upcoming Mighty Morphin Power Rangers #30 from Boom! Studios.

In this exclusive preview we get our first look at the main cover by Jamal Campbell, featuring a number of helmets from felled rangers surrounding Lord Drakkon’s throne. The Jordan Gibson variant gives us the traditional MMPR border used on a number of variants through out the series but features Andros the In Space Red Ranger as it’s main focus. Given the In Space rangers part in the Shattered Grid Annual, this could signal a larger role for them all to play. And the final gorgeous cover is by Carlos Villa, who treats us to an incredible “Forever Black” team-up of Black Rangers spanning franchise history.

Power Rangers #30 is a ways off from release, due out some time in August, but for now we can continue to drool over these lovely covers. Thanks to Comicbook.com for their exclusive preview.
