First Official Image of SDCC S.H.Figuarts Metallic Pink Samurai Ranger
As a follow up to the S.H.Figuarts Metallic Blue Samurai Ranger revealed yesterday, Bluefin has now shown the S.H.Figuarts Pink Samurai ranger, done up in the same exquisite finish!
The Pink Samurai ranger is seen wielding her signature Sky Fan weapon, which just like Blue’s Hydro Bow also appears to be lacking a matching paint job.
Likewise with Blue, Pink also saw a limited run release as a Tamashi Web exclusive.

Straight from Bluefin’s facebook account, here’s our first look at the individual figures contained in the SDCC S.H.Figuarts Samurai Ranger set, with a photo of the S.H.Figuarts Blue Samurai Ranger!
He’s seen holding his signature Hydro Bow weapon which doesn’t appear to be painted in matching metallic colors.
Collectors of S.H.Figuarts will know that this figure was previously only available for a brief time as a Tamashi Web release. This will be the first time the figure sees a release in North America!

Mystery S.H.Figuarts Teased by Bluefin
This photo just appeared on Bluefin’s Facebook page.
With no other info given, they could be anything. But the color layout on the suits seems to indicate a possible western release of the S.H.Figuarts Shinkenger releases, which aside from Shinken Red and Shinken Gold have previously been Tamashi Web Exclusives.
What’s you’re take on Bluefin’s mystery Figuarts? Discuss on the thread!
Bluefin Tamashii Hints at Future Power Rangers SH Figuarts, and more!
With San Diego Comic Con right around the corner, and Bluefin Tamashii teasing the Power Rangers fan community with a slew of “hints” regarding the “Power Ranger/Sentai themed” exclusive for this year’s convention, they took to Twitter last night to answer a host of other questions, and in the process, revealed quite a bit of information that may have been lost in that of social media. Luckily, TokuNation.com has you covered.
Here are some snippets below.
@yourfriendlyandy: WANT (and the 3 others yet to come)!!! Damn you @TamashiiNations for ruining my bank account! #MMPR (image was of the 4 MMPR SH Figuarts)
TamashiiNations: @yourfriendandy 3 more eh? Our count says more than 3 for #mmpr #powerrangers
@ZeltraxMilleniu: Heck Yeah. I do have a question for the MMPR figuarts:
Will the power weapons be able to combine?
TamashiiNations: Currently not authorized to answer ;)
The above conversation was meant to say that we have yet to see official photos of the upcoming Yellow Ranger, Blue Ranger, and Black Ranger from Power Rangers and Zyuranger. We’ll say it’s a safe bet (see below) that we’ll get a Red Ranger with Dragon Armor to round that upcoming number to 4, but is there a chance we could see a villain like Goldar released as a web exclusive in Japan? Time will tell… Fans have also been curious if the weapons will combine like they did in the show. Speculation is either 1) They do, or 2) They don’t but an accessory will be sold later
@PwnStar511: Will the Yellow Ranger have a male or female body type?
@TamashiiNations: It’s a topic of discussion ;)
A lot of fans have speculated (and debated) whether the SH Figuarts Zyuranger Tigerranger/Mighty Morphin Yellow Ranger should have a female body or a male body. In Zyuranger, the Yellow Ranger was male. In Power Rangers, the Yellow Ranger was female. However there was no change made to the costume (no skirt), so the fans continue their debate … a male body would be accurate to the costume, but for Power Rangers fans, it would be inaccurate to who played the character.
@ptoadstool: Is there any hope for the Gokaiger Figuarts coming over for Super Megaforce? (including the girls?)
@TamashiiNations: The answer to this will depend on something yet to be….
In other words, probably yes – we’ll end up seeing Gokaiger SH Figuarts hitting US shores in some way, shape, or form in the next year. This is not a confirmation, but an open-ended speculation.
@LinearRanger: Any chance of seeing the other Shinkenger, Dekaranger or Gosei Knight SH Figuarts in US releases?
@TamashiiNations: Yes!
Many have speculated that Gosei Knight would be released as an SDCC exclusive Robo Knight, kind of like how Female ShinkenRed was released as a NYCC exclusive last year. For those who missed out on Shinkenger and Dekaranger releases, this must be good news.
@TamashiiNations: Does the PR exclusive have some sort of armor or shield?” No…but THAT one is for something else #sdcc
Many people speculated we’d see a Red Ranger with Dragon Armor released at some point. This pretty much confirms it without officially confirming it.
Bluefin Tamashii also tweeted about a “pack” of exclusives. Something that comes in a “pack” and that foreshadows a future release of Power Rangers. Let the speculation run rampant!
