However it’s also time we picked the series for our next Let’s Watch segment! And this time we want to mix things up.

There won’t be any nominations this time around. After digging through the records of previous LWW nominations threads we’ve come up with an all-star list of the toku shows that YOU the community demanded, but that simply never won the polls. These choices are the 10 most frequently requested series that have yet to have a go on Let’s Watch Wednesdays. But now is your chance to make them happen!

 

  • Kamen Rider Faiz
  • Madan Senki Ryukendo
  • Garo (Season 1)
  • Taiyo Sentai Sun Vulcan
  • Tensou Sentai Goseiger
  • Ultraman Mebius
  • Kamen Rider Den-O
  • Kamen Rider Black
  • Kyoryu Sentai Zyuranger
  • Power Rangers In Space

Make your decision by clicking “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post to be taken to our poll! This poll will remain open for 1 week, until Wednesday May 21st at 11:59 PM. Good luck!

The developments continue to build regarding exactly what the Zyurangers (the Sentai series that Mighty Morphin Power Rangers used the footage from) have coming up that actress Reiko Chiba, who played the Pink Pteraranger, revealed on Twitter!

Originally revealed a month ago that she and the other actors from Zyuranger had been contacted by TOEI, Rekio Chiba has all but confirmed that it is Kyoryuger related via twitter.

Dukemon22 has already reported that there is a Zyuranger/Kyoryuger “meet-up” in the works planned for the end of the series.

Responding to a fan question on whether or not Burai the Green Dragonranger would return or not seeing as his character in the show would, uh, how do we put this, “have a lot of explaining as to why he’s there”, Reiko added that indeed, “Burai” is involved with the Zyuranger special. We’re hoping this means that Shiro Izumi is rejoining his fellow cast.

This is notable because Shrio Izumi is retired, and has not been involved in acting, or anything Super Sentai related, in many, many years.

But as to what exactly the Zyuranger special is, we just don’t know yet. But it’s safe to say it’s Kyoryuger related, AND, Burai is returning!

Stay tuned, this one promises to be special.

We teased it for weeks and it’s finally time to reveal it!

Our goal at San Diego Comic Con was to get as many awesome things as possible to give away to our fans, users, and social media followers! And while some of our contest item attempts were thwarted due to insane lines, policy changes from Bandai, and overall work versus play-time, we did snag a few things and have bundled them together for some fun prizes!

Without further wait, here are the prizes! Click the title of the story to check out pictures of each individual prize.

The Grand Green Prize[/u]
The Green Ranger from Mighty Morphin Power Rangers is an icon of the brand, and the actor who brought the character to life, Jason David Frank, went on to be the most popular Power Ranger of all time. The Grand Green Prize celebrates the character of Tommy Oliver, and is yours to win!

  • S.H. Figuarts Mighty Morphin Power Rangers Green Ranger figure mint in sealed box, autographed by Jason David Frank (signed at his SDCC 2013 Saturday night VIP event)
  • SDCC 2013 Bluefin Tamashii Power Rangers Action Card Game S.H. Figuarts Red & Green Ranger card, mint in bag

The Red Prize[/u]
If the Green Ranger is the most popular, the first Red Ranger is right behind him as one of the most iconic Power Rangers ever. Our Red Prize celebrates that character and is yours to win!

  • S.H. Figuarts Mighty Morphin Power Rangers Red Ranger, mint in sealed box
  • SDCC 2013 Power Rangers Action Card Game S.H. Figuarts Red & Green Ranger card, mint in bag
  • SDCC 2013 Power Rangers Action Card Game Mighty Morphin Red Ranger card, mint in bag

The Gosei Prize[/u]
The 20th Anniversary of Power Rangers is upon us, and the current iteration of the brand, Power Rangers Megaforce, heavily plays on the original series featuring five teenagers with attitude who spend their off-time at Ernie’s – just like the original five! They power up using cards to morph and call upon their weapons and Mechazords. There were seven cards exclusive to San Diego Comic Con 2013, and all seven of them are yours to win in one shot!

  • A full set of the 7 SDCC 2013 exclusive Power Rangers Action Card Game cards all mint in bag (S.H. Figuarts Red & Green Ranger, Red Mighty Morphin, Dino Megazord, Green Mighty Morphin, Red Ultra Megaforce, White Mighty Morphin, and Red Mighty Morphin with Dragon Armor)

So how do you go about winning these great prizes?

Between now and the end of the month of August, we will post three items on our frontpage – they could be news stories, a toy gallery, a site update, etc. – and if you see the following catch phrase in the news story:

“Post in this discussion thread, retweet this news post on Twitter, and “Like” this story on our Facebook for your chance to win the ______ Prize!”

…just follow the instructions and you’re entered! It’s important to note that we will NOT announce the contest entry in the news story title, it’s up to you and your peers to check out our updates to see if it’s a contest story! We may or may not hint at when a contest story is coming.

There’s three ways to enter for each prize!

1 – Post in the discussion thread of that news story (you must be a member of TokuNation.com to do so, so hurry up and register today!)
2 – When the news story hits Twitter, retweet it! (so make sure you’re following us @TokuNation on Twitter!)
3 – “Like” the story on our Facebook (so be sure to ”Like” us on Facebook!)

Entries from all three places will be pooled together and one winner will be randomly selected for each prize. You have a way to enter three times (through the site, Twitter, and Facebook) so be sure to increase your chances at winning by doing all three!

NOTE: Due to our RSS feed, we realize that our Twitter feed will post the news story from the frontpage, as well as a second time when it hits Facebook. We will only honor one retweet of the contest entry story as a contest entry. You are more than welcome to retweet both of the tweets just to make sure you’ve entered, but you will NOT be entered for both.

If you have any specific questions, please ask them in this discussion thread or direct them to us on social media and our administration team will answer them. Fine print below. Thanks, and good luck!

under San Diego Comic Con

San Diego Comic Con 2013 is less than a week away, and TokuNation.com is going to be there in attendance to bring all the pictures, news, and more that you could ever ask for.

Another item up for grabs at Bandai‘s booth this year is the 4 inch Metallic Mighty Morphin Green Ranger with Power Coin. The figure is painted with a metallic finish, and rather surprisingly, comes with the “megazord” coin from Mighty Morphin Power Rangers which will work in your Legacy Morpher. If you want the complete set of coins, you’ll need this bad boy as well as the highly-sought-after Golden Legacy Morpher, another SDCC 2013 exclusive.

This figure will be sold for $25 and is limited to only 300 pieces.

Also note – site owner and administrator Kickback will not only be at SDCC 2013 this year, but is also confirmed for a meet and greet with legendary Jason David Frank, who played Tommy Oliver, the Green and White Ranger.

Kickback will be broadcasting on Twitter and Facebook throughout the show, answering your questions and taking pictures at your request. Follow us @TokuNation on Twitter and be sure to ”Like” us on Facebook so you can stay up to speed with everything happening at SDCC 2013!

Go Go Power Rangers!

UPDATE! We got our numbers backwards. There’s 500 of this Green Ranger figure. The Gold Gosei Morpher (check tomorrow!) will be at 300 pieces. Our bad!

Recent solicitations have confirmed that the Japanese releases of TyrannoRanger & DragonRanger will include special add-on parts to match their Akibaranger on-screen appearance!

These mini-flag details will NOT be included in Bluefins’ release so anyone who prefers “Powerful Ranger” style should arrange a preorder as soon as possible. :)

Tyranno & Dragon will cost 3675 Yen and be out this summer!

The special Super Sentai section of Bandai’s Tamashii website has updated with more images of the SH Figuarts being released to coincide with season 2 of Akibaranger. While we have already seen several of these, such as the season 2 Akibarangers, Tyrannoranger and Dragonranger, this section also features new images of Ryuranger and Kibaranger of Gosei Sentai Dairanger (or if you’ve been following Akibaranger lately, China Sentai Chinaman!)

Though it features just a single image of Kibaranger, the page shows the accessories Ryuranger will come with (including an alternate China Red helmet) and a release date of August. He will be priced 3675 yen.

Check out the images after the jump!
