Tokunation has been doing tribute after tribute each month to the various seasons of Power Rangers. This month is no different, but our focus is, and this time it’s Power Rangers Lightspeed Rescue! This year marks the 13th Anniversary of the show as well. Based on KyuKyu Sentai GoGoV, Lightspeed Rescue is definitely a fan favorite series.
Whether it’s because of Red Ranger Carter Grayson, or the first truly US exclusive ranger Titanium Ranger, or the expansion of the Battlizers this time used by Red Green & Blue Rangers, there’s a huge fanbase for this season! And with all the anniversary talk the cast members actually met up recently for a small 13th anniversary get together! This show had so much to offer fans with it’s more public safety/protect & serve rangers and their public identities.
To celebrate follow the links and check out 2 classic GoGoV Minipla galleries by Tokunation Photo & Content staff member MoonBaseTom. These vintage candy toy/Minipla kits are tough to find but incredibly fun and detailed for their time.

In case you missed it, we’ve recently wrapped up the Licensing Expo in Nevada, where our first official images of Power Rangers Super Megaforce were shown. We got the press-release (which didn’t detail hardly anything we didn’t already know) but as for information regarding merchandise and toys … we only know that we’re getting them. There’s hope that we’ll see some of the first stuff around San Diego Comic Con next month, and TokuNation.com will be there to give you all your first look at whatever Bandai of America brings!
TokuNation.com member and RangerCrew.com founder Fury Diamond was in attendance at this year’s Licensing Expo and took a ton of images as well as video – did you know that the Power Rangers Super Megaforce actually showed up at the expo? The suits, not the actors.

With the Licensing International Expo just about to get under way, Saban Brands have officially unveiled the 2014 Power Rangers series, entitled Power Rangers Super Megaforce, via a press release and an official teaser poster. Power Rangers Super Megaforce will follow on as the second half of Power Rangers Megaforce, with footage adapted from the 35th Super Sentai series Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger.
The press release is as follows:
Saban Brands announced today that it will launch Saban’s Power Rangers Super Megaforce, the newest season of Power Rangers, in 2014 on Nickelodeon. Power Rangers, one of the top rated and longest running boys live-action series in television history, offers SUPER MEGA action, excitement, humor and entertainment, while maintaining core themes of friendship, teamwork, fitness and helping others.“As Saban Brands and Power Rangers celebrate the 20th Anniversary of the iconic franchise this year, it is more apparent than ever that the show has a strong connection to fans of all ages and backgrounds,” said Elie Dekel, President of Saban Brands. “We are happy to continue our partnership with Nickelodeon and we look forward to entertaining our fans with more action-packed, SUPER MEGA adventures in 2014 with Power Rangers Super Megaforce.”
The upcoming season of Power Rangers Super Megaforce focuses on the Rangers’ mission to defeat a massive alien army Armada that was sent to conquer Earth. To face this threat, Gosei, a supernatural guardian who has protected Earth for centuries, gives the Rangers special morphers and keys, which allow them to morph into Super Megaforce Rangers. The Rangers also have an added special ability to morph into any team of Power Rangers from the past. These super-sized adventures can only mean one thing: the all-new Power Rangers Super Megaforce has arrived!
Thanks to our friends over at Rangercrew (who are attending the Licensing Expo), we also have a hi-res version of the first promotional poster for the show. Interestingly there are two versions of this poster – one featuring only the core five rangers and another including the silver ranger.
