As revealed by @ForTheGridFans on twitter, the characters of the Street Fighter universe are making their return to Power Rangers Legacy Wars!

You my recall that in their last collaboration that the characters Ryu, Chun-Li, and Akuma made their way to the Power Rangers universe. And that Ryu in particular was gifted the abilities of a Power Ranger, suiting up as the Ryu Ranger! With the trio’s return to the popular Power Rangers fighting game, Ryu won’t be the only one with the power protecting him either. This go around Chun-Li will also don a suit a the Blazing Phoenix Ranger!

While nWay, the company behind Legacy Wars & Battle For The Grid, has yet to officially make this announcement, this is another pretty  astounding crossover for the Power Rangers. When the official announcement comes, most definitely accompanied by a video of Chun-Li in action, we’ll be sure to continue our reporting.

IT’S MORPHING TIME!

For those among us that still play nWay’s Power Rangers: Legacy War mobile game, you might recall that Street Fighter’s Ryu was recently added to the game’s roster as the Ryu Ranger(not to be confused with RyuuRanger of Gosei Sentai DaiRanger), and a live action short film was teased to commemorate the occasion. After some time; the Power Rangers Legacy Wars: Street Fighter Showdown short film has finally been released for your viewing pleasure.

Street Fighter’s own Ryu and Chun Li team up with the legendary Tommy Oliver(Jason David Frank) and Super Megaforce’s Gia(Ciara Hanna) to stop Rita and M.Bison’s nefarious schemes. The film was done by Bat in the Sun, known for their Super Power Beat Down videos in conjunction with Hasbro’s AllSpark Studios. The result is a fan film you’ll just have to watch for yourself:

The Premium Bandai website has just updated with new official images and pricing/release info for the highly anticipated Super Sentai Artisan Aura Change & Kiba Changer set! This impressive pair of releases is surprisingly sold together, we half expected Premium Bandai to sell them separately. Thankfully though when you contact your middleman to secure one of these magnificent pieces you’ll only need to do it once!

The Aura Changer & Kiba Changer set will be sold exclusively through the Premium Bandai site with a release in March 2017. Retail price for this set is a very reasonable 10, 584 yen. Confirmed features so far include newly recorded sounds for each changers’ electronics, the Kiba Changer also includes the necessary Kiba Emblem, cast entirely in diecast metal!

Are you as excited for this release as we are?? Let us know in the thread below!

Teased late last month we were expecting to see official images and details for this release on October 26th. But thanks to Figure Oh scans leaking a little earlier than expected we have our first look at two new upcoming Premium Bandai Products, The Super Sentai Artisan Aura Changer & Kiba Changer!

Thanks to an anonymous poster on 2chan the first image of this pair is currently making the rounds and WOW do they look great! We can almost hear the droves of Power Rangers fans out there who hope to see this item re purposed for the Magna Defenders morpher as the original DX toy was.

The Aura & Kiba Changers are headed for release in March 2017, presumably as a set for 10,584 yen. but we’ll have full release details and official images on October 26th.

We don’t have much to go on currently other than the cryptic teaser image attached to this article. But it appears the Premium Bandai subline of Super Sentai Artisan releases is about to add an item from Gosei Sentai Dairanger!

The teaser image provided simply says to check back with the Premium Bandai website on October 26th for the official reveal. Right now (given recent releases) our best guess is that this item will be a Super Sentai Artisan Aura Changer, with perhaps a Kiba Changer release down the line. Attentive Power Rangers fans will of course recognize the Aura Changer as the basis for the Magna Defender’s morpher from Power Rangers Lost Galaxy.

We’ll keep you up to date as new information and details become available for this upcoming Dairanger item!

In a similar fashion to last years Kyoryu Sentai Zyuranger news, the fine people at Shout! Factory have just dropped another bombshell on the tokusatsu fandom. When asked by a fan in the audience at tonight’s San Diego Comic Con 2015 panel, “Will we get a new tokusatsu title?” they were able to reply yes. And that title is Gosei Sentai Dairanger!

Fans in the west will undoubtedly recognize the footage from this show as it was utilized for Mighty Morphin Power Rangers Season 2 as well as the character Kiba Ranger who was adapted as the Mighty Morphin White Ranger. Still yet people may recall the “new powers” of Power Rangers Super Megaforce where the Dairanger suits were shown on American TV for the first time.

For now it’s safe to assume that this DVD set will follow the same formula as Shouts Zyuranger DVDs at a similar price point for  the entire series in one set.

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.
