A press release from Saban Brands has hit the Internet today and, like last year, has informed us that the new Power Rangers Super Megaforce heroes will be making their debut at this year’s Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade.
The information, with thanks to Fury Diamond and his blog Samuraicast Blog, reads as follows:
The Power Rangers Super Megaforce are making their MEGA debut at the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade. Saving the world from evil, this iconic team of superheroes calls on legendary Power Rangers from the past and the future. With the Power Rangers Super Megaforce on hand, and some added help from surprise guests, the Earth is well protected this Turkey Day.[/i]
In case you missed it, here’s the video of last year’s parade, which was in itself pretty spectacular. Again, credit to Fury Diamond of RangerCrew.com for the encode.

As Power Rangers Megaforce begins to near an end and we get closer and closer to the expected February launch of Power Rangers Super Megaforce, which is the adaption of Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger, information about the villains is beginning to leak.
For starters, Xenotome from RangerBoard posted that John Leigh will be voicing a character by the name of Damaras in Power Rangers Super Megaforce. Ironically enough, there’s a bad guy general in Gokaiger by the name of Damaras. Mystery solved. John Leigh has also voiced Brownbeard from Power Rangers Operation Overdrive, Dr. Belrab in Power Rangers Ninja Storm, and most recently the Fisherman in Power Rangers Samurai.
To top that off, @nightmere10 from Twitter discovered that Rebecca Parr will be voicing a character by the name of Princess Levira for 19 episodes of Super Megaforce. While no one is able to confirm is Princess Levira is the Zangyack Empire’s Insarn, it’s a pretty safe bet, as the Zangyack Empire has been touted as being royalty in the Super Megaforce adaption.

Jason David Frank revealed on his Facebook fan pages that he is “Working on the green ranger movie trailer with Bat in The Sun!! Wait till you see it!!
JDF”
Is this the reason why Jason has refused to be a part of the MMPR Fan film? What sort of deals did he reach with Saban? Stay tuned for more news as it develops.

… For 1 Million Dollars!!
Simon Cowell’s dignity has a price — $1 million — because that’s how much someone paid to get him to sing the “Power Rangers” theme song … in front of a giant crowd of rich people … and TMZ has the hilarious video.
Here’s what happened: Simon was attending a fundraiser in Beverly Hills last night, and billionaire “Power Rangers” creator Haim Saban offered to donate $1 million if Simon sang the show’s theme song.
And Simon actually did it. It’s epic.
There’s a pretty great twist at the end as well, resulting in Simon paying $250,000 of his own money. Watch the video over at TMZ.
Ever since Saban Brands purchased back the rights to Power Rangers, they’ve treated viewers with both a Halloween episode and a Christmas-themed episode. This year’s installment of the Halloween special is titled “Raising Spirits”, and there’s a clip available at Nickelodeon’s website.
The clip doesn’t reveal much – though we laugh at the unintentional foreshadowing as Ernie is dressed as a pirate.

We’re writing this post with the assumption that you, the casual viewer, has never seen the Sentai version of Power Rangers Megaforce titled Goseiger, nor the Super Sentai anniversary season that followed, titled Gokaiger. So if you HAVE seen them – this news story will bore you, except for maybe seeing how it’s adapted for American audiences.
If you HAVEN’T seen them, you yourself can be spoiled if you like! Let’s just ask some questions…
Who is Metal Alice? What’s going to happen to Vrak? Who is The Messenger, and what is this Armada he keeps speaking of? And whatever happened with Troy’s legendary dream with a ton of Power Rangers fighting a big army?
All is revealed in these final 5 episodes of Power Rangers Megaforce, to be followed in 2014 with Power Rangers Super Megaforce.
Our good friend Fury Diamond knows, as he’s caught up on these episodes (via international airing). And you know what? You can read all about the spoilers by clicking here to visit his blog!
Needless to say, it appears the finale will be MEGA. And that next season is just going to be … SUPER MEGA. (You ever wonder if the Super Megaforce Rangers will have an Ultra mode, and be called Super Ultra Megaforce?)
