“Appear Daizyujin!”

We know this one’s been out for a while, but when you’re dealing with something this incredible, it takes a bit of time to do the job right. So we’ve taken our time and shot an in depth gallery of nearly 200 images, with a full length 7 part review of this fantastic release. It’s well past time we share with you our in depth look at the Soul of Chogokin SOC GX-76 Daizyujin! Of course for the western collectors out there this is none other than the MMPR Megazord!

Daizyujin is that most iconic of Sentai mecha to those of us in the west. It’s gone through various toylines, updates, and revisions over the years, and finally Tamashii Nations has tackled it with an entry in their long line of SOC’s. This figure sat out to recreate the iconic designs of the 5 Guardian Beasts and their two combined forms using modern engineering. The results are near flawless. We have a die-cast laden, poseable, proportionate, and imposing figure to add to our collections. Special note, our review piece today (provided by the infinitely generous TokuChris) features the western Bluefin distribution exclusive packaging. Consisting of new MMPR themed box art.

We’ve attached the MASSIVE 195 image gallery of SOC Daizyujin to this post. But you can also read our lengthy review of this set by clicking “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post. This gallery & review were a labor of love for me. And if you’re a fan of Zyuranger or MMPR, I hope it does the job of making you want this set.

Our coverage of Toy Fair 2018 continues with a look at the offerings for Imaginext Power Rangers. Unfortunately there was not much to be seen from the folks at Imaginext. On display was a brand new repaint of the Megazord playset in a new color scheme – black and red – with no release information available. Shown with it was a Mighty Morphin Red Ranger with black highlights and a repainted Rita Repulsa figure in purple and blue. Two power coins and a purely red staff accompanied as accessories.

What is the future of Imaginext Power Rangers with the master toy license going to Hasbro? We’re not quite sure. Hasbro has it’s own preschool aged faction of toys under the PlaySkool banner. We’ll update you with any further information regarding the future of Imaginext Power Rangers.

As Power Rangers: Shattered Grid draws ever closer, the anticipation for Boom! Studios’ forthcoming comic book event grows higher and higher and thanks to IGN, we have a number of new covers and concept art pieces to tease what the story has in store for fans.

First up are the latest sentries to join the evil Lord Drakkon’s growing army – the Zeo and Samurai Sentries! Much like the previously seen sentries these soldiers have augmented versions of preexisting ranger powers. The Green Zeo Sentry is equipped with a mech suit that can use a variety of weapons, whilst the Blue Samurai Sentry sports a more armoured version of the costume together with twin arm blades and red eyes glowing through their visor.

The third piece of concept art for the event is of a new villain from Drakkon’s timeline – Finster Five. Go Go Power Rangers writer Ryan Parrott pitched the character as a version of a cyborg version of Rita’s chief monster maker that has been augmented using parts from Alpha 5.

Rounding off the images are the covers for Power Rangers #27 and Go Go Power Rangers #9, each of which show off some new faces to the Power Rangers comic universe. Power Rangers #27 shows the Mighty Morphin Red Ranger protecting RPM’s Dr K from Grinders alongside the female Red Samurai Rangers, while Go Go Power Rangers #9 has an even bigger surprise in store. This issue is set to debut a brand new Power Ranger, who writers Ryan Parrot and Kyle Higgins tease is a “new ranger with a familiar face”.

Celebrating the 25th anniversary of the Power Rangers franchise, Power Rangers: Shattered Grid kicks off in issue #25 of the main Power Rangers comic, which will be released on March 21st. You can check out the full gallery of covers and concept art after the jump, as well as share your thoughts on the upcoming event.

Great news for you Legacy Mighty Mighty Morphin Power Rangers Flip Head Figures collectors! The assortment has been released at Target stores. Found by Jaime M on the Power Rangers Buyers Sellers Traders group on Facebook and shared with us via @BigMike8109, we can report that this assortment does include the Mighty Morphin Pink Ranger.

These figures were originally found at Game Stop stores and did not include the Mighty Morphin Pink Ranger. The case assortment at Target is as follows:

4x Mighty Morphin Red Ranger
1x Mighty Morphin Green Ranger
1x Mighty Morpin Pink Ranger

This is the third different case assortment as Game Stop contains 3x Red and 3x Green, while Entertainment Earth has a pre-order available for 4x Green Ranger, 1x Red Ranger, and 1x Pink Ranger. It would appear that the Mighty Morpin Pink Ranger will be the hardest figure in this assortment to find. Happy hunting!
