Some time ago we reported that a series of special episodes would be included on the Kamen Rider Ghost Blu-Ray releases featuring the Ganma Prince, Alain (and yes, that does appear to be the official spelling of his name).

The title for this 4-episode special project has recently been revealed: Legends of the Hero Alain and a trailer has been posted online:

The story will follow Alain as he learns more about humanity in an effort to determine the Ganma’s future.

Legend of the Hero Alain will be released with the Kamen Rider Ghost Blu-Rays on April 13, 2016!

There’s a new villain in town and his name is Snide! And it’s up to the Power Rangers Dino Supercharge Rangers to stop him as he takes the reigns from the former villain, Sledge, in an attempt to gather the Energems and conquer the universe!

The character Snide may look familiar – and it’s because his Super Sentai counterpart, Neo-Geildon, is an upgraded from of the villain from the Super Sentai series Bakuryu Sentai Abaranger known as Geildon. Fans of Power Rangers know that villain better as Zeltrax from Power Rangers Dino Thunder. His only appearance was in the Go-Busters vs. Kyoryugers movie, making his appearance in Power Rangers Dino Supercharge an entirely new appearance for the character. Sadly, he shares no relation to the original Zeltrax.

The toy itself was part of the first wave of toys for Power Rangers Dino Supercharge although the assortments are all sorts of crazy – his most notable release was in the wave of figures that contained the Power Rangers Dino Supercharge Rangers with their Dino Steel modes (armored with their individual weapons).
