Thanks to a posting on his Official Facebook Page, the legendary hero of your childhood, Jason David Frank, will be attending a number of shows for 2014! Among one of his stops is one of the fastest growing and popular shows – Denver Comic Con! Jason David Frank will join Walter Jones (the Mighty Morphin Black Ranger) and David Yost (the Mighty Morphin Blue Ranger) as the first tokusatsu related guests at the third annual Denver Comic Con June 13th-15th 2014.

For those who don’t remember off the top of your head who Jason David Frank is – he played the Mighty Morphin Green Ranger, Mighty Morphin White Ranger, Zeo Red Ranger, Turbo Red Ranger, Dino Thunder Black Ranger, and is set to reprise his Mighty Morphin Power Rangers roles in the 2014 series Power Rangers Super Megaforce in a special episode.

But now for some sad news – based on the scheduled date for Wizard World Chicago, it would appear that Jason David Frank will NOT be attending 2014’s Power Morphicon convention (the official Power Rangers convention). Power Morphicon takes place August 22nd-24th 2014, and Wizard World Chicago takes place August 21st-24th 2014. Jason is currently scheduled as a guest at Wizard World Chicago for their 2014 show and the dates conflict.

If you live in the middle United States and would like to experience a great show, be sure to register for Denver Comic Con as tickets are going fast. TokuNation will be in attendance at the show to bring you pictures and any news that comes up at the show.

There has been no official announcement from Denver Comic Con regarding Jason David Frank’s attendance, nor is there any update from Power Morphicon on whether or not the iconic Power Ranger is or is not attending the official convention. As soon as there is we will bring the news to you.

A recent tradition to both inspire new readers and to promote your product is in the now annual Free Comic Book Day.  The next annual event is scheduled to be on May 3rd, 2014 and features a number of titles being offered up for free from your favorite comic book retailers.

For the first time ever, Power Rangers will be offered on Free Comic Book Day.  Thanks to Samurai Cast Blog we now know that Papercutz, who announced at San Diego Comic Con 2013 that they were doing a Mighty Morphin Power Rangers graphic novel due for release in June 2014.  This special Free Comic Book Day comic will be a tie-in to the first graphic novel release, and will feature the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers and the White Ranger.

Our photo staff is at it again, this time a new gallery coming from photo and content staffer conundrum!

The ‘Armored Might’ subline of Bandai of America’s Power Rangers toy line continues with two new releases for Fall 2013, including a Power Rangers 20 figure, the White Mighty Morphin’ Ranger.

The White Ranger stands at approximately 7 inches tall and has a fairly impressive 29 points of articulation. The figure features removable chest armor, gauntlets, arm bands, and boot cuffs. It also includes two pairs of interchangeable hands and a well sculpted Saba sword. White Ranger shares the same body sculpt as the previously released Mighty Morphin’ Red Ranger and is able to wear/wield its accessories.

While this Armored Might White Ranger figure is no S.H. Figuarts Kiba Ranger,[/URL] it’s still a very solid figure.

To see all the images of this incredible figure from our gallery, please click here!

What happens when Scorpion from the Mortal Kombat series goes toe to toe with the White Ranger from Mighty Morphin Power Rangers?

One of the coolest fight scenes ever done. No seriously, it’s pretty awesome. Check out the video below and take note – the White Ranger is indeed voiced by Jason David Frank, who played the White Ranger during Mighty Morphin Power Rangers.

What did you think? Was that not totally awesome!? Video done by Bat in the Sun, who just do really awesome things all the time.

KiRyoku Tenshin!

This figure has been long awaited by both Super Sentai & Power Rangers fans but the time is finally here. Today’s gallery is of S.H. Figuarts Kiba Ranger from Gosei Sentai Dairanger or for Power Rangers fans the original White Ranger!

Kiba Ranger is none other than the young boy Kou, grown to adult size after using his Aura Changer. His trusty partner and weapon the Byako Shinken (Saba) is included with holstered and extended blades. And though the choice of hands for this figure is limited this Japanese market Tamashii Web Exclusive release includes an alternate chest plate. This represents Kiba Ranger’s temporary stint as the cancelled “4th member” of the Akibarangers from Hikonin Sentai Akibaranger Season 2 and it’s alternate timeline where the Dairangers never existed!

Ironically the same young actor who played a young Burai/Dragon Ranger in Zyuranger also happened to play Kou in Dairanger. Thus sharing a rather odd connection to Tommy Oliver and his dual roles as both the Green and White Rangers in Power Rangers!

And how many of our fans remember our contest and were waiting for the chance to win the S.H. Figuarts Mighty Morphin Power Rangers Green Ranger signed by Jason David Frank? Well, this seems like the right piece to do that with! So let’s do this! Three different ways to enter, each giving you an entry to win!

Winner will be selected at random! Good luck!
