Mighty Morphin Power Rangers Issue #1 Review

Posted on March 2, 2016 at 9:00 am by Chris under Power Rangers

The time has come for fans of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers – the official first issue (although Issue #0 was pretty much a FIRST issue … this is just another issue that happens to have the #1 attached to it) of the brand new comic by BOOM! Studios is here! Featuring what can only be called a near-record-setting line up of variant covers (27 total covers, we counted), the first issue hits stands after the enormous success of Issue #0 which launched back in January.

We got ourselves a copy and have done a full review – spoilers and all! Check out our review of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers Issue #1 by clicking “Read More” at the end of the story. We’ve also included some images – but we’ve blanked out the word bubbles so you won’t have to worry too much about scene-by-scene spoilers.

Check out our review of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers Issue #1 after the jump!

Super Sentai Artisan Rodeomaru & Chouzetsu Akaninger Gallery

Posted on February 28, 2016 at 10:58 pm by Den-O under Super Sentai

Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeehaw!

Premium Bandai’s in house Super Sentai Artisan line continues with a new dual release! Today we get to take a look at the recently released Artisan Rodeomaru & Chouzetsu Akaninger 2-pack!

Rodeomaru & Akaninger are of course both new high end replacements for their DX counterparts. Rodeomaru offers a splendid new accurate robot mode with a healthy amount of die-cast metal or “gokin” parts thrown in for good measure. He also includes some replacement arms and shoulders to help recreate his combination with DX Bison King. And much like the previously released Artisan Shinobimaru he also included a to-scale Starninger figure!

Chouzetsu Akaninger on the other hand is a tiny yet articulated alternative to the figure included with DX Lion Ha Oh. While there are no metal parts present in this mini-figure, he does manage to include his Ninja Ichibantou as well as 2 adapter pieces to allow him to function with Lion Ha Oh.

We’ve attached a selection of images to this post, but feel free to click “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” to view the  full 50 image gallery!

Garo – The Animation English Dub Cast Announced by FUNIMATION

Posted on February 27, 2016 at 11:34 pm by Chris under Garo

Today at Anime Matsuri, the English dubbing company FUNIMATION, known by most casual fans for their English dub of Dragonball Z, announced the upcoming cast for the English language dub! Check out the voice talents, and who they’re playing, below!

León Luís – Ricco Fajardo
Germán Luís – David Wald
Alfonso San Valiante – Justin Briner
Bernardo Dion – Ivan Jasso
Mendoza – Vic Mignogna
Anna Luís – Anastasia Munoz
Ema Guzmán – Monica Rial
Garm – Tia Ballard
Rafael – Ben Bryant
Zaruba – Barry Yandell
Octavia – Colleen Clinkenbeard
Fernando – Ben Phillips
Esmeralda – Dawn M. Bennett
Ximena Coronado – Jad Saxton

FUNIMATION summarizes the story of Garo – The Animation as follows:

A long time ago in the kingdom of Valiante, humans shared the world with Horrors—monsters who feed on humans with weakness in their hearts. Desperate to put an end to the Horrors’ reign, the King allowed his advisor Mendoza to launch a witch hunt targeting the magic users who had sworn to protect humanity from evil.

One-by-one the famed Makai Knights and Alchemists were cut down by Mendoza and his men. That is, until a young Makai Knight named León inherited the golden armor of Garo and with it, the power to save the kingdom. But unlike the other Makai Knights who fight to protect humanity, León is young, reckless, and driven by his desire to avenge his mother’s death at Mendoza’s hands. How can an immature Golden Knight who fights for the wrong reasons hope to protect anyone?

Garo – The Animation Season One Part One English dub will release on DVD and Blu-Ray on April 26th. This will be a great chance for fans who are unfamiliar with the Garo franchise to get to know one of the more popular tokusatsu series with older audiences. Credit to AnimeNewsNetwork.com for the heads up.

Legacy Falconzord Found at Toys’R’Us in USA

Posted on February 26, 2016 at 5:48 pm by Chris under Power Rangers

The Mighty Morphin Power Rangers Legacy Falconzord has been found at Toys’R’Us by Twitter user @BigMike8109. The retail cost is $79.99 which is slightly disappointing given the lackluster capabilities of the zord by itself.

Check out the original tweet!

Images of New Power Rangers Super Megaforce Ranger Keys Found

Posted on February 26, 2016 at 5:14 pm by Chris under Power Rangers

Yesterday, images of brand new Ranger Keys were unearthed by our friends at RangerCrew.com. This follows up with statements from Bandai America at this year’s Toy Fair stating that they would find out what was going on with the remaining Ranger Keys upon returning to their offices after the event. Some of these are really exciting to see – especially a certain American-Made Power Ranger yet to see retail outside of a convention exclusive release!  These new Ranger Key sets are as follows:

  • Black (translucent)
  • Pink (NEW!)

Power Rangers Megaforce

  • Pink Ranger (NEW!)
  • Yellow Ranger (NEW!)

For many fans this will come as a big breath of relief as we will finally have many, many teams completed. However, we would like to point out that there are still a few Ranger Keys missing. The list below details all the remaining Power Rangers that have appeared on screen, despite how little air time they may have received.  Except for Boom.  Because come on, that was a dream sequence!

Missing Ranger Keys

  • Jungle Fury Elephant Ranger (US Ranger)
  • Jungle Fury Shark Ranger (US Ranger)
  • Jungle Fury Bat Ranger (US Ranger)
  • SPD Nova Ranger (finale)
  • SPD Kat Ranger (one episode)
  • Female Red Samurai Ranger (major story line of the entire show)
  • RPM Gold & Silver Ranger (split down the middle, appeared in Super Megaforce as an actual key)
  • Turbo Yellow Ranger

We have reached out to our contacts at Bandai America in hopes of getting more details on the authenticity of these (although we assume they are legit) images, as well as a possible release date and the status of the keys that would be missing listed above. Stay tuned!
