Over the course of the last 8 hours there have been more cast updates about the upcoming anniversary season of Power Rangers Super Megaforce. For starters, we’ll continue with the most famous of the franchise, Mighty Morphin Power Rangers.

David Yost, who played Billy the Blue Ranger in Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, has tweeted that he chose not to go back to Power Rangers.

Megaforce=No 4 me. They lost me when the offer started “Dear Power Ranger” & had several grammatical errors. #donewithabusiverelationships

Through our good friend Fury Diamond of RangerCrew.com, we’ve also learned that Sally Martin, who played Tori the Blue Wind Ranger in Power Rangers Ninja Storm, as well as Melanie Vellajo, who played Madison the Blue Ranger in Power Rangers Mystic Force, did not receive invites to appear as a cameo. Fury Diamond confirms it in this tweet here.

And finally, Dan Ewing, Dillon the Black Ranger from Power Rangers RPM, let his fans know that he did not receive an invite either.

UPDATE: Not that this comes as any surprise, but Mr. Yellow was able to discover that none of the Mighty Morphin Alien Rangers were invited to attend. Check out the info by clicking here.

UPDATE #2: Caitlin Murphy, who played Ronny the Yellow Ranger in Power Rangers Operation Ovedrive, received an invite BEFORE the “mass E-mail” sent out by Saban Brands, but has never heard back from production.

We’ve updated our comprehensive list of actors returning and not returning for Super Megaforce. What are your thoughts on the latest developments for casting?

Hey Power Rangers fans! We have a couple of updates for those of you looking for the Toys’R’Us exclusive Mighty Morphin Power Rangers Legacy Power Morpher toy.

Thanks to TokuNation.com member raz we have some solid information on just exactly how many Legacy Power Morphers are out there right now and what areas can expect to see them next.

raz took the time to call a number of Toys’R’Us stores across the country and got some pretty solid details on exactly what distribution centers have stock and an estimate of exactly what amounts. They are as follows:

All distribution centers on the east coast (Philadelphia, North Carolina, New York, Maryland, Chicago, etc.) are showing ZERO Legacy Power Morphers on hand, meaning their shipments have yet to arrive. That area is probably still a week out from getting anything in stores, as the item has to arrive at the distribution center first.

The distribution center in Dallas has 292 Legacy Power Morphers in the warehouse. The Colorado distribution center has over 200 Legacy Power Morphers ready to go. The distrubtion center in California, which services all 12 Toys’R’Us stores, has 256 Legacy Power Morphers to split between those stores, though history has shown us Transformers collectors that they are never distributed equally. So basically, if you’re in the Missouri area to the west coast, you should find Legacy Power Morphers in your Toys’R’Us stores THIS WEEK – truck days usually fall on Tuesdays or Thursdays.

Here’s also a review from YouTube user BNGamesReviews for those of you still on the fence.

If you manage to find the elusive and exclusive Toys’R’Us Legacy Power Morpher, don’t forget to post where you found it in our Tokusatsu Toy Sightings forum! Your fellow tokusatsu fans will appreciate it.

The Legacy Power Morpher runs at $49.99. Good hunting!!
