This screen-accurate prop is being produced in honor of Black RX’s 3oth anniversary. A copy of Black RX’s belt is included to replicate the on-screen summoning sequence. The RevolCane will also feature new dialogue recorded by Black RX’s actor, Tetsuo Kurata. Finally, a special display stand will be included to show off this amazing prop!

“The only thing standing in front of the apocalypse, is us.”

In the 5 years since Pacific Rim first rampaged it’s way across theater screens, fans have been rabid for a sequel to this giant robot love letter. Meanwhile collector’s have been desperately hoping a better option for merchandise and collectibles for the franchise. Well Tamashii Nations has finally come to rescue to provide fantastic action figures and toys at multiple price points and functionality from Pacific Rim Uprising! Today we’re taking a look at the very first release in their Pacific Rim Robot Spirits (Damashii) line with Gypsy Avenger!

Kicking the line off in fantastic fashion, is the heroic mech central to Uprising’s plot, Gypsy Avenger. The slimmed down successor to Gypsy Danger, Avenger comes to us at an insanely affordable price point (only $20!) and is one of the best and most functional figures we could hope for at that price. Armed with her Gravity Sling & Chain Sword, Gypsy Avenger can go toe to toe with the toughest Kaiju, giant robots, or otherwise huge heroes in your collection.

We’ve attached the full 70 image gallery of Robot Spirits Gypsy Avenger to this post. You can also read our extensive (and positive) review of the figure by clicking “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post. And, we’re gonna continue to cancel the apocalypse off and on for the next month as we review the other 5 Pacfic Rim Robot Spirits that make up the rest of waves 1 & 2!

As you’re all well aware, Mighty Morphin Power Rangers Issue 25 released yesterday and took the Power Rangers fandom by storm. The comic is currently sold out and – spoiler – something big happens in it. Thanks to @MisturYellow on Twitter, we now notice there’s a CHANGE to an upcoming cover for Mighty Morphin Power Rangers Issue 27.

The original cover (shown in the image of this article) was easily one of the most popular covers revealed by BOOM! Studios previously as it features the Samurai Red Ranger Lauren as well as Dr.K in the Power Rangers RPM universe. But a change to the cover was spotted in a SyFy interview with the team behind the comic.

Today is the start of Shattered Grid, the mega-event in the Power Rangers comic universe. The release of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers 25 has sent shockwaves through the Power Rangers fandom. Word of mouth has spread because BOOM! Studios has announced that Mighty Morphin Power Rangers 25 sold out immediately at the distributor level.

A second printing variant will now be released on April 25th when the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers Annual releases. No details on the cover as of yet – but we’d be okay with this cool green lightning bolt.

Fitting, don’t you think?
