The biannual Power Morphicon has come and gone but we’re still sharing images from the event! There were so many things to take pictures of and so little time to do it that we’re still catching up! Hasbro pulled out all the stops in their first-ever Power Morphicon by cracking open the vaults and showing off some Legendary Rangers goodness in a number of costumes and props from the last 25 years.

We have taken high resolution photos of every single costume on display at the show. To check out all the delicious pictures, click the title of the story! Power Morphicon will return to Anaheim, California in 2020. We’ll see you there!

The danger will test you, better make it Lightspeed Rescue!

And we’re back with another treat from Power Rangers Super Megaforce and today’s offering is the Lightspeed Rescue Cycle! Like it’s mold mate the Lost Galaxy Cycle, the Lightspeed is an homage to a vehicle from it’s name sake show. And like the Galaxy Cycle it features the same fun pull back/ranger key activated gimmick. This release also helps explain the removable “head” gimmick seen on the Galaxy Cycle. Each one will have this feature so you can mix and match the various “heads” to create some new combos.

To check out the full gallery of the Lightspeed Rescue Cycle click “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post. And get ready for a massive upcoming gallery of the Ranger Key packs released so far from Photo & Content Staff member conundrum!

We asked the TokuNation.com forum members earlier this year to rate their Top 10 Power Rangers of all time, and from that list, we’d create the TokuNation Users’ Top 20 Power Rangers of All Time list to celebrate the 20th Anniversary of Power Rangers. Rising in popularity the last few years it should be no surprise that taking home the #10 spot on our user-created list is Sean CW Johnson, aka Carter Grayson, the Lightspeed Rescue Red Ranger!

Carter Grayson was one of the top fire fighters in the city of Mariner Bay. His bravery and willingness to rush head first in to danger captured the eye of Captain Mitchell, who unbeknownst to everyone, was heading the Operation Lightspeed program. Carter was recruited to become the Red Ranger for the Lightspeed Rescue, an organization created to fight back the evil demons led by Queen Bansheera and Diabolico.

It is Carter who leads his team to defeat Queen Bansheera and save all of Mariner Bay.

Carter returned in the season Power Rangers Wild Force, and recruits Cole Evans, the Wild Force Red Ranger, to join a group of other Red Rangers traveling to the moon to defeat the remnants of the Machine Empire in the episode “Forever Red”, which celebrated the franchise’s 10th Anniversary. Carter will return again in a special episode of Power Rangers Super Megaforce to save the world from The Armada alongside other veteran Power Rangers. This makes him one of three returning actors to have participated in both the 10th Anniversary and the 20th Anniversary of Power Rangers.

The actor, Sean CW Johnson, hasn’t been in acting for almost a decade, but when he was, you would have seen him in guest roles on popular shows like JAG, 7th Heaven, CSI: Miami, and the show Las Vegas. He was born in Sarasota, Florida, and has only recently emerged back in to the public with his Twitter account @seancwjohnson. Be sure to send him a tweet welcoming him back in to the world of Power Rangers!

What do you think of this selection? Should it be higher or lower? Let us know! And be sure to tune in TOMORROW as we announce the #9 selection on our TokuNation Users’ Top 20 Power Rangers of All Time list!

In what might possibly be his first interview, Sean CW Johnson, who played Carter the Power Rangers Lightspeed Rescue Red Ranger, was kind enough to answer some questions for Fury Diamond and our friends at RangerCrew.com.

In the interview, Sean talks about how he got his role in Power Rangers Lightspeed Rescue, as well as his own thoughts and feelings about returning to the role of Carter for the Power Rangers Super Megaforce season finale episode, “Legendary Battle”.

It’s a great interview and we urge you to check it out!

What do you guys think? Are you excited to see the return of Carter to the Power Rangers franchise? And … do you think he made it in to the TokuNation.com User Voted Top 20 Power Rangers of All Time list?

Tokunation has been doing tribute after tribute each month to the various seasons of Power Rangers. This month is no different, but our focus is, and this time it’s Power Rangers Lightspeed Rescue! This year marks the 13th Anniversary of the show as well. Based on KyuKyu Sentai GoGoV, Lightspeed Rescue is definitely a fan favorite series.

Whether it’s because of Red Ranger Carter Grayson, or the first truly US exclusive ranger Titanium Ranger, or the expansion of the Battlizers this time used by Red Green & Blue Rangers, there’s a huge fanbase for this season! And with all the anniversary talk the cast members actually met up recently for a small 13th anniversary get together! This show had so much to offer fans with it’s more public safety/protect & serve rangers and their public identities.

To celebrate follow the links and check out 2 classic GoGoV Minipla galleries by Tokunation Photo & Content staff member MoonBaseTom. These vintage candy toy/Minipla kits are tough to find but incredibly fun and detailed for their time.

Jason David Frank (Tommy, a Power Rangers legend as MMPR Green, MMPR White, Zeo Red, Turbo Red, Dino Thunder Black), confirmed via his official Facebook page that the cameos we’ve seen in the images posted on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram are it … no other past Rangers appeared.

The finalized list is as follows:

Jason David Frank – (“Tommy” Mighty Morphin Green and White, Zeo Red, Turbo Red, Dino Thunder Black)
Selwyn Ward – (“TJ” Turbo Red, In Space Blue)
Patricia Ja Lee – (“Cassie” Turbo Pink, In Space Pink)
Danny Slavin – (“Leo” Lost Galaxy Red)
Reggie Rolle – (“Damon” Lost Galaxy Green)
Melody Perkins – (“Karone” In Space Astronema, Lost Galaxy Pink)
Sean Johnson – (“Carter” Lightspeed Red)
Alison MacInnis – (“Dana” Lightspeed Pink)
Jason Faunt – (“Wes” Time Force Red)
Hector David Jr – (“Mike” Samurai Green)
Brittany Pirtle – (“Emily” Samurai Yellow)

The exact quote from Jason David Frank is as follows:

Thats the only 10 that were pick guys. No other rangers came back. Thats the legendary cast for that ep.

So there you have it. We’d like to point out that yes, that is a list of ELEVEN, but the original list provided by RangerCrew.com’s Fury Diamond did not include Patricia Ja Lee. Whether she showed up on her own dime, or Jason David Frank really did do this for one dollar allowing her to be able to come, has yet to be revealed.

For those of you paying attention to all the news about Power Rangers Super Megaforce, Sean Johnson, better known as Carter Grayson aka Lightspeed Rescue Red, was listed as one of the 10 confirmed cameos, but it wasn’t until this photo from Jason Faunt’s instagram account that we had physical evidence that the most manliest red ranger ever (in my opinion) was returning

no news has come up about his ultimate tool to defeating bad guys, the team jeep, will make an apperance in Super Megaforce, but stay tuned into Tokunation to find out!

Let the Super Megaforce cameo speculation finally be put to rest! Earlier tonight, Alison MacInnis, or Dana the Pink Ranger in Power Rangers Lightspeed Rescue, confirmed that she was the 10th and final cameo Power Ranger returning for a reunion in Power Rangers Super Megaforce.

The following list was revealed by Fury Diamond of RangerCrew.com some time ago, with Alison MacInnis being the final addition to the list tonight.

Jason David Frank (“Tommy”, MMPR, PRZ, PRT, PRDT)
Danny Slavin (“Leo”, PRLG)
Melody Perkins (“Astronema”, “Karone”, PRiS, PRLG)
Reggie Rolle (“Damon”, PRLG)
Selwyn Ward (“TJ”, PRT, PRiS)
Sean Johnson (“Carter”, PRLR)
Alison MacInnis (“Dana”, PRLR)
Jason Faunt (“Wes”, PRTF)
Hector David Jr (“Mike”, PRS)

We’ve included images that these former Power Rangers have posted on their flight to New Zealand. Apparently the entire first class was filled with Power Rangers! What a Power Rangers fan wouldn’t give to be on that flight right now…

Special thanks to Fury Diamond for all the glorious inside information on the upcoming reunion. No matter how small their roles may be, the fans are rejoicing to see some of their childhood heroes reunited, if even for a few seconds.

NOTE: Jason David Frank actually flew out on Monday, a couple of days prior to the rest of the cast. He is most likely already on set. Could he be there longer to film something closer to a tribute than a cameo for Tommy Oliver? Stay tuned… Go Go Power Rangers!

Rangercrew Member Fury Diamond once again breaks some news for Super Megaforce.

Not counting the Samurai Rangers, it seems that only 10 past actors have signed contracts to reappear on Super Megaforce.

Earlier, Jason Faunt has confirmed that he will be reprising his roll as Wesely Collins, in addition to David Slavin and Jason David Frank whom both confirmed that they will be making cameos.

Fury Diamond’s exact post is as follows:

One of my sources has confirmed that 10 past cast members have signed contracts and already completed their fitting. Some of these cast members are not active with the fandom and Power Rangers conventions. Jason Faunt confirmed earlier today and Danny Slavin may be one of the other cast members. The Samurai Cast members are not included in the 10 members.

Several cast members got the invite but didn’t get the uninvite letter. They are waiting for production to make a decision. These cast members are very excited to return.

My guess is that the production team only allocated for 10 past cast members.

Update:

Fury Diamond has now confirmed the 10 actors that will be appearing in Super Megaforce, from Diamond’s exact Post here is the list of confirmed Actors that are gonna appear in Super Megaforce:

I got off the phone with my source with a fun list of confirmed cameos. I am waiting confirmation for the final one. They said that only 10 members were confirmed. I don’t know whether they are planning for additional cameos since several cast members are still waiting for confirmation / uninvites.

Danny Slavin
Melody Perkins
Reggie Rolle
Selwyn Ward
Sean Johnson
