Fans of the Power Rangers rejoice – arguably the biggest “Why haven’t they made this yet?” role-play toy is finally getting made and joining the product lineup for this year’s 30th anniversary of the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers.

Originally reported by The Illuminerdi and backed up by a never-before-released exert of an interview with the late Jason David Frank, Hasbro will be releasing the Master Morpher – which made its debut in the 25th anniversary episode of the franchise “Dimensions in Danger” during Power Rangers Ninja Steel – sometime this year.  While there are no official details available (the item hasn’t been officially announced), it is expected to be a GameStop exclusive and available this Fall.  In the show, the item allows Tommy Oliver to change between all five of his previous Power Rangers incarnations.

Toy leaker @LightningFigPR on Twitter has teased that the Master Morpher will come with six total coins – Dragon, Tiger, Falcon, Zeo, Turbo, and Dino Thunder.  The Master Morpher should also come with newly recorded dialogue for each morph as seen in the show.

Stay tuned for more details as they release.

The face of the Power Rangers franchise – Jason David Frank – has died.  He was 49 years old.

For thirty years, Jason David Frank has celebrated Power Rangers with fans all over the world.  First appearing in Mighty Morphin Power Rangers as the evil Green Ranger in 1993, his character “Tommy” would leave and return as the White Ranger, become the Red Ranger in Power Rangers Zeo and Power Rangers Turbo, and star in two feature films (Mighty Morphin Power Rangers The Movie and Turbo: A Power Rangers Movie).  Eleven years after his first appearance, Jason David Frank would return as the Black Ranger in Power Rangers Dino Thunder, giving the Power Rangers television franchise a much-needed boost during it’s second season under Disney Entertainment.

Jason David Frank would return twice more – once in the “Legendary Battle” episode of Power Rangers Super Megaforce, and again for the 25th anniversary episode “Dimensions in Danger” during Power Rangers Super Ninja Steel.  He also brought the evil comic book character Lord Drakkon to light in a short trailer for the BOOM! Studios Power Rangers Shattered Grid comic book event during the 25th anniversary.

At every single convention that Jason David Frank attended there would be massive lines to get pictures and autographs with, arguably, the most famous and popular Power Ranger.  Jason David Frank would make it a point to stay until the last fan in line got what they got in line for – whether it was an autograph, a picture, or just to say hello.

Jason David Frank had been working on and promoting the upcoming release of his creator-owned character via movie, Legend of the White Dragon, created with popular independent film maker Bat in the Sun (famous for “Super Hero Beat Down” YouTube shorts).  The film was set to release online in 2023.

He wasn’t perfect – nobody is – but for an entire generation of kids he was their hero. Our thoughts are with his family & friends in this difficult time.

Rest in Peace, Jason David Frank.  1973-2022

“Go tell King Mondo, if it’s a fight he wants, it’s a fight he’s gonna get!”

Tommy Oliver has been a Power Ranger before. First as the corrupted Green Ranger before turning to the side of good, and again as he was given another chance and a new set of powers as the White Ranger. But with his powers destroyed and the Command Center in ruins, what’s left for this once Mighty Morphin hero? Alpha 5 & Zordon have spent years preparing for this , a day when the Power Rangers as we know them, would be gone forever, and a new fighting force would have to take their place. With the Machine Empire and it’s fearsome new monsters invading Earth, the only team that can stand up to them is the Power Rangers Zeo! Imbued with the energy of the Zeo Crystals, each ranger is stronger than before! Tommy once again heeds the call to defend Earth, but this time as Zeo Ranger V, RED!

The Red Zeo Ranger joins the Power Rangers Lightning Collection for Wave 6, and marks the 3rd (or 4th) release so far for the team after Blue and the two different Gold’s. Building off the solid base that is the Zeo Ranger mold, Tommy is an excellent release. With all the right articulation hallmarks needed for dynamic posing, this figure is also packed with accessories. Like an unmasked head sculpt, a Zeo Laser Pistol & effect part for it, the Power Pod Sword, and the Zeo V Power Sword! While a couple of issues persist from the last release, this feels like an all around improvement.

Renegade Game Studio’s Power Rangers: Heroes of the Grid tabletop game came out last month and after a successful launch they’re back at it again with another Kickstarter campaign.

We’ve known for some time now that a Power Rangers: Zeo expansion was planned thanks to a Backer’s Choice poll that was held some time ago. The Evil Robot Clone of Dino Thunder Black is present on the banner, suffice to say that an expansion based on the Power Rangers Super Ninja Steel anniversary episode: Dimensions in Danger is also quite possibly in the works.

Other details are unknown at this time, but we’ll be sure to update you once the Kickstarter goes live on September 17th 2019.

The penultimate story of Tommy Oliver and possibly his final Power Rangers story releases next month in the graphic novel Soul of the Dragon by BOOM! Studios. Following Tommy Oliver in his final Power Rangers story, he searches valiantly for his missing son, JJ, who is working with Space Patrol Delta (SPD). His past, his present, and what remains of his future will collide in this epic adventure which harkens to the classic “Old Man Logan” story from Marvel Comics.

Written by Kyle Higgins – the famed Power Rangers scribe responsible for the immensely popular and successful Shattered Grid story in the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers comic – and illustrated by Giuseppe Cafaro – this is a book that any fan of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, or the work of Kyle Higgins, do NOT want to miss.

Check out a number of preview pages for the graphic novel by clicking the title of the story. Thanks to Comic Frontline for the initial release of these images.

For 25 years the Power Rangers have been on television, on store shelves, and had its iconic theme song stuck in your head. We’re sure that more than once in the last few years have you heard a communicator “bum bum bum-bummm bum-bummm” play while you’re out and about being an adult. And in that brief moment you harken back to being a kid and racing home to watch Tommy and the other Power Rangers kick Lord Zedd‘s butt. Thus, you probably caught the Power Rangers 25th Anniversary Episode on Nickelodeon the other night – or if you haven’t then you’ve checked out all the various clips around the Internet.

Never fear – we caught the episode, recorded it ourselves, and have re-watched it numerous times. So let’s sit down and have a chat about the episode that attempts to bring back those Saturday morning feels with our comprehensive synopsis and review of Power Ranger Super Ninja Steel “Dimensions in Danger”, the Power Rangers 25th Anniversary episode!

Quite the interesting entry has been discovered on Amazon.com. Found by @PowerRangerTalk on Twitter, there is an Amazon listing for a Power Rangers Legacy Super Zeo Gems Collectable Set. The description of the listing is as follows:

  • Harness the power of the Zeo Rangers with the Power Rangers Legacy die-cast Super Zeo Gems set
  • Each gem has been masterfully replicated with high quality die-cast parts so you can relive epic moments from the show
  • The set includes all 5 of the Power Rangers’ gems
  • Hold a piece of Power Rangers history in the palm of your hand, show it off in its display packaging, or combine it with the Power Rangers Legacy edition Morpher (not included)
  • The Power Rangers Legacy die-cast Super Zeo Gems set is an essential addition to any Power Rangers collection!

A pretty solid description for items shown only once in Power Rangers Zeo! Either way it is nice to see the Legacy line of Power Rangers continue to tread past the days of Mighty Morphin. Check out the listing on Amazon by clicking here. There is no release date or price at this time.

For those unfamiliar with the item – when Trey of Triforia passed the Gold Ranger powers to Jason, he left the Power Rangers Zeo with a gift – the Super Zeo Gems! Zordon had assumed they were lost forever (and that was the end of their lore) and was excited that they were back. Jason, using the Golden Power Staff, was able to reactivate the Super Zeo Gems to activate the brand new Super Zeo Zords which would combine to form the Super Zeo Megazord.

If the Power Rangers Zeo Legacy Super Zeo Gems comes to be will it be joining your collection? Sound off in our discussion thread!

Thanks to GrnRngr.com’s Facebook page we have press photos for the upcoming 5th series of the Power Rangers Legacy 6.5″ figures. This series has already started bleeding in to stores with the Zeo Red Ranger showing up in Series 4 case assortment refreshes. The wave is as follows:

– Zeo Red Ranger
– Zeo Blue Ranger
– Zeo Pink Ranger
– Dino Thunder Black Ranger
– Dino Thunder Yellow Ranger

We know that at least one case assortment that will be hitting stores will contain only the male figures. The female figures have yet to be seen in package, in production, or anywhere really. We’re still awaiting an update on the Zeo Yellow Ranger, who is part of the Series 4 figures and yet has not been released.

The press photos do not appear accurate to what is going to be released. Many of the “shiny gold” parts of the figures end up being a dull orange color instead. This change first started with the Series 4 figures and continues int he Series 5 figures. Hopefully we will have some answers at Toy Fair next month as to why.
