With Power Rangers about to go in to hiatus it seems only fitting that the toy news would begin to amp up.

EntertainmentEarth.com has a listing up for the fifth wave in the 5 inch Power Rangers Dino Charge line up and this appears to be the first wave with all new figures. The listings are as follows:

2x Gold Ranger
1x Graphite Ranger
2x Dino Drive Red Ranger
1x Dino Drive Blue Ranger
1x Dino Drive Pink Ranger
1x Dino Drive Green Ranger
2x Dino Drive Black Ranger
2x Ptera Charge Megazord

We’ve seen what we can already assume is the Dino Drive Rangers, as they are the regular suits with a power-up shield like item on their chest from our coverage at Toy Fair 2015. We’ve also seen the Gold Ranger and Ptera Charge Megazord figures, so we are incredibly curious as to the listing of the Graphite Ranger! As you remember, Bandai of America informed us that “every Ranger in the show will have a figure”.

With San Diego Comic Con only three short months away hopefully we will get our first peak! Special thanks to our good buddy raz for the initial find!

After some good partial images early this week, we now have several full-page images featuring Shuriken Sentai Ninninger’s sixth member- StarNinger!

These scans offer us excellent details on StarNinger’s arsenal- in particular the Star SwordGun weapon that StarNinger uses to fight against the Yokai.

In addition the scans provide a close look at StarNinger’s Otomo-nin combo, RodeoMaru and the Bison Buggy! These two can combine to form a new Mecha, Bison King!

Coming off our 400th anniversary special our resident Photo & Content contributor Ryan is back to continue his series of classic Kamen Rider W galleries! Today he’s taking a look at S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider W Luna/Trigger!

One of the myriad two tone forms Kamen Rider W has access to, Luna/Trigger is one of his 3 “basic” combos. The Luna Gaia Memory gives W the ability to stretch his limbs in incredible inhuman ways, whil the Trigger Memory gives him access to the powerful Trigger Magnum. The potent combination of the two allows W to hit otherwise impossible targets in spectacular ways.

Check out our full review & gallery of this figure by clicking “discuss on the TokuNation forums” at the bottom of this post.

Today is the start of a fresh batch of magazine scans flooding the internet, so let’s start off with the sentai batches! From Shuriken Sentai Ninninger we have the following:

– Starninger civilian form. Real name Kinji Takigawa. Came from America & decided to be a ninja after encountering the Last Ninja, Yoshitaka Igasaki.
– Ninja Red & Hurricane Red Shurikens! From the upcoming 3 ninja team episode crossover. The Kakuranger ninshuriken will allow the user to create doubles while the Hurricanger ninshuriken allows the user to use the Huuricane Red’s Soragake technique.
– Rodeomaru & Bison King. Rodeomaru will be the core unit of Bison King much like Shinobimaru is for Shurikenjin.
