“What’s that you usually yell about now?
Something about ‘Morphin Time,’ isn’t it?”

For 4 seasons and 2 movies, one villain has been an ever present threat to the Power Rangers. This mighty winged has waged wars on countless worlds, making his mark across the universe. But after being freed from a 10,000 year slumber, the Power Rangers of Earth became his greatest foes. For millennia, he has served at the beck and call of his empress, Rita Repulsa. And even before that, he was a loyal general in the armies of the fearsome Lord Zedd. Born on Titan, Saturn’s largest moon, the shining warrior Goldar is a force for all heroes to reckon with.

A Gamestop Exclusive, Lightning Collection Goldar has easily become one of the most in demand figures in this line. As the first truly modern action figure the character has received, there was quite a bit of hype surrounding it’s release. Pairing your Goldar up with Lord Zedd or the recently released Putty, a real army is starting to take shape to take on your Power Rangers. LC Goldar is armed with his signature sword as well as a pretty lethal looking effect part to accent it, and his iconic golden wings. As a standalone figure Goldar may have a handful of issues, but as a part of your larger Power Rangers collection he’ll feel right at home.

Check out our full 60+ image gallery of Goldar after the jump by clicking “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post. You can also read through our full review of the figure in that thread. We’ll be back soon with a look at the future in our gallery of S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Woz!

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.

“You will carry on the work we began.”

The original Magna Defender, was a fierce & noble warrior. But consumed by revenge over the loss of his son, the Defender resorted to vicious tactics to combat his enemies. In a bid to undo his terrible deeds & save the Terra-Venture colony, he sacrificed his own life, resurrecting Mike Corbett in the process. Brother to Leo Corbett the Red Galaxy Ranger, Mike’s body had been a vessel for the spirit of the Defender. Given a second chance, Mike is now worthy enough to inherit a hero’s legacy. Taking up the Magna Sword and commanding the Torrozord into battle, Mike becomes the next Magna Defender!

Of the various figures announced and released for the Lightning Collection line so far, the Magna Defender is by far one of my favorites. A solidly built and designed figure, the Defender feels right at home with any 6th rangers or extra heroes you have floating around in your collection. Fans of Power Rangers Lost Galaxy & Seijuu Sentai Gingaman will be incredibly pleased with how this surprisingly dynamic figure has turned out. Armed with the Magna Sword & Magna Blaster, the Magna Defender’s legacy is ready to live on!

We’ve assembled 70+ images of this figure for your viewing pleasure, just click “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post to see them all, and read our in depth review. We have several special cameos in this gallery. We’ll be taking a little bit of gallery break this week, but we promise we’ll be back soon with more Lightning Collection and S.H. Figuarts galleries!

“The mantis DNA worked! I’m a ranger!”

As a child prodigy, it was a no brainer that Nate Silva would join Grid Battleforce. Discovering a way to access the Morphin Grid and harness it’s very essence as Morph-X energy, Nate would go on to create a new generation of Power Rangers! But with the emergence of the viral villain Evox and his deadly avatars & Tronic soldiers, the world would need more than 3 Power Rangers. Abducted by Blaze & Roxy, Nate hatched an escape plan with some Morph-X and Mantis DNA. Now Nate, as the Beast Morphers Gold Ranger with his partner Steel the Silver Ranger, protects the real world from the digital armies of Evox!

The Beast Morphers Gold Ranger is yet another winner in Hasbro’s ever expanding line of Lightning Collection figures. A design that Super Sentai fans have wished to see in figure form for years, the Gold Ranger should appeal to both Beast Morphers & Go-Busters fans alike. A solid entry to the line, the Gold Ranger makes full use of the articulation layout Hasbro has engineered while being armed up with his Striker Blaster & Striker Sword! And as always I love the added bonus of the civilian head with a likeness of Nate Silva actor Abraham Rodriguez!

Check out our full 80 image gallery of the Beast Morphers Gold Ranger and read our full review after the jump by clicking “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post. We’ll be back in a couple days with a long overdue review from Kamen Rider Ex-Aid, as well as more Lightning Collection from Hasbro!

“Back to action!”

It’s so fitting that in the first full year with the brand under new ownership, and with the recent announcement of this particular actor’s return, that Hasbro’s first convention exclusive would be centered around the ranger who began it all. Austin St. John is fondly remembered by fans old and young as Jason Lee Scott, both the original Red Ranger as well as the Zeo Gold Ranger. And this exclusive Lightning Collection two-pack celebrates both ahead of the character’s upcoming return for Power Rangers Beast Morphers in 2020!

Both of these figures are new mold entries for Lightning Collection. While similar in design and articulation layout to previous figures in the line, each brings something new to the table. The Dragon Shield Red Ranger is a wonderful figure that is absolutely armed to the teeth with Blade Blasters, the Dragon Dagger, and even a complete (and functional!) Power Blaster! Toss in a civilian head for display and this is a near perfect figure for MMPR fans. The Zeo Gold Ranger is likewise the kind of do-over many collector’s have hoped for since Bandai America’s cheese colored attempt at the character last year.  With two versions of the Golden Power Staff, an energy effect to compliment them, and another unique civilian Jason head, you have all the display options you could possibly need with this one too!

This two-pack cements Hasbro’s Lightning Collection as absolutely the best collector oriented line the franchise has ever gotten. We’ve packed 120 images into this gallery and we had a ton of fun doing it. Check out the full gallery and read through our complete review by clicking “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post. And don’t forget! If you haven’t been able to purchase this set yet, it will be going up for sale on Hasbro Pulse later this month. So be sure to keep an eye out for it.

LET’S ROCKET!

Our friends at Hasbro are showing no signs of stopping the Lightning Collection hype train any time soon! Just last week, they revealed a Lightning Collection two-pack containing the Lost Galaxy Red Ranger and the villainous Psycho Red from Power Rangers in Space, and it was just recently revealed that his fellow Psycho Ranger: Psycho Blue will be joining the ranks.

As you might recall, we first caught wind of a Lightning Collection Psycho Blue Ranger thanks to a solicitation that was found on a computer at EB Games Canada back in early January. Tthough it hasn’t been confirmed at the time of this writing, the safe assumption will be that this figure will likely be a retailer exclusive to GameStop/EB Games.

None the less, we can expect Lightning Collection Psycho Blue to retail for $19.99 USD or $32.99 Canadian with a supposed release sometime in the fall.
