For those of you interested in a little bit of nostalgia the Power Rangers Legacy Fliphead figures have been released at GameStop. Found at a GameStop in Texas by Mike of the Facebook group Power Rangers Traders, Buyers, and Sellers, he was able to purchase both the Red Ranger and Green Ranger figures.

The GameStop location he visited had two brand new cases and not a single Pink Ranger fliphead figure was included in the initial shipment. It would appear, much like other Late Fall assortments of Power Rangers toys, there isn’t a female to be found in the initial shipments.

If you’re interested in picking up these figures be sure to check your local GameStop!

The ever reliable Cranejoe has confirmed the title for the upcoming Super Sentai series in 2018. That title is Kaitou Sentai Lupinranger vs Keisatsu Sentai Patoranger. We are awaiting details from a meeting held in Japan with Bandai that will give us some specific toy information. Stay tuned for more details of Kaitou Sentai Lupinranger vs Keisatsu Sentai Patoranger as they release!

For those still confused on the title – it literally means “robbers” (Lupin) vs “cops” (Pato). We can’t wait for more information!

“We’re teammates now.”

It’s another new gallery for Toku Toy Box at TokuNation and we’re revisiting the grim world of Kamen Rider Amazons! Before Alpha & Omega, Mamoru the Mole Amazon, was a member of the Nozoma Peston Service. Rag tag mercenary Amazon hunters. Often seen eating a hamburger the gentle & powerful Mamoru would have done anything to protect these friends. And if you weren’t aware, Mole Amazon is actually based on the Showa character Mole Beastman from the original Kamen Rider Amazon TV series. Mole Beastman was actually the very first Kaijin to befriend a Kamen Rider, and became a strong ally to Amazon. So it’s no wonder that a similar bond was forged between Mamoru & Haruka for a time.

As the first of the proper non-rider Amazons to receive a figure, we dive in and take a look at S.H. Figuarts Mole Amazon! The Mole Amazon is a pretty wild design from the ground up. Angular, intricate, well painted, monstrous. It’s such an interesting update to an otherwise very odd character design. While Mole isn’t a Kamen Rider per se, it’s unquestionable that he fits right in with the other misfits and miscreants of the series. This figuart of Mamoru includes a an extra pair of hands, his open feeding mouth, a final blow effect part to defeat Amazon Sigma, and of course his Hamburger! I wasn’t entirely sure what to expect of this Tamashii Web Exclusive but I’m really happy to say that I love it. Here’s hoping we see his season 2 Evolved Form down the road as well!

We’ve attached the full 55 image gallery to this post but you can also read an in depth review of S.H. Figuarts Mole Amazon by clicking “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post. Next time we’ll be back with the long awaited gallery of god himself Kuroto Dan, with S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider GenM Zombie Gamer Level X!

Today a listing was discovered on EntertainmentEarth.com for what is listed as a Power Rangers 25th Anniversary Ranger Keys listing. The said listing contains a case of 6 different 5 packs of Ranger Keys. Unfortunately, there is no breakdown for the case. John Green on Twitter of GrnRngr.com is stating that these appear to be part of the Legacy assortment.

Check out the official listing of the Power Rangers 25th Anniversary Ranger Keys here. We’ve reached out for comment on what these are. If we receive a response we will update with more information. Our own speculation is that these will contain classic teams and not necessarily complete the missing keys, though it would be nice to get Power Rangers Dino Charge and Power Rangers Ninja Steel represented.

Estimated release date is April 2018. Image used in this story is from our Power Rangers Zeo Ranger Keys gallery and not of the actual product listed in this story.

Kamen Rider Ex-Aid Another Ending Part II (Kamen Rider Para-DX With Kamen Rider Poppy) is currently scheduled for release on April 11, 2018!

The universe within BOOM! Studios Mighty Morphin Power Rangers and Go Go Power Rangers comics are about to get much bigger! The first-ever comic event in franchise history, “Shattered Grid” begins within Mighty Morphin Power Rangers Issue 25 releasing on March 21st, 2018. The evil Lord Drakkon – the alternate future Tommy Oliver who never became good – is back. And he’s raised an evil army that has the Power Rangers and the morphin grid itself in its sights.

The Shattered Grid event will also have ripples in the Go Go Power Rangers comic series. For those who haven’t followed Go Go Power Rangers, that comic book follows the original five Mighty Morphin Power Rangers literally right after they become Power Rangers and how it effects their personal lives. In the book, a fan-favorite Power Ranger from the future will arrive looking for Lord Drakkon and will end up dividing the team “in a very personal way”.

All in all – the existence of the Power Rangers past, present, and future is at stake in this event. So, naturally, the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers are going to need to help of Power Rangers from all walks of the franchise to help out. The event begins with Mighty Morphin Power Rangers Issue 25 on March 21st, 2018. It continues in Go Go Power Rangers Issue 9 releasing in April. The event will also have two one-issue specials during 2018.

Check out the full press release from BOOM! Studios below. Are you ready for this mega-event? Could we call it … a SUPER MEGA EVENT? Too soon? Who do you hope to see in the Shattered Grid event? Sound off in our discussion thread! Click “Read More” for the full press release.

“I will live until the last moment!!” 

A tormented soul joins us today for Toku Toy Box. It took Chihiro most of his life to discover what he truly was, an Amazon. Son of Jin Takayam, Amazon Alpha, the Point of Origin for a new generation of Amazons, a threat to all of humanity. Ultimately, Chihiro came to blows with his long lost father Jin as well as Amazon Omega Haruka Mizusawa. He never got to live the peaceful life he wanted to, or be the hero he thought he wanted to be. He at least went out a fighter standing his ground against the odds. Today we take a look at the first figuart based on this chaotic & torn character, S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Amazon Neo (Amazon JP Edition)!

Amazon Neo is the first release we’ve seen from Amazons Season 2, soon to be followed by New Omega. But this new body type introduced with Neo has already won me over. I was initially skeptical, but this figure has turned out to be possibly my favorite Amazon thus far. Sharp paint apps and strong details help bring this design to life. Not to mention as an Amazon Japan Exclusive edition, we also get a sweet set of Tamashii Flame Effects in addition to the included hands, Amazon Neo Blade, & Amazon Injector accessory.

We’ve attached the full 60+ image gallery to this post but you can also read through our comprehensive review of Kamen Rider Amazon Neo by clicking “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post. Toku Toy Box will pick up next time with another gallery from Kamen Rider Amazons with S.H. Figuarts Mole Amazon!
