This day just continues to charge up! TokuNation forum member GoseiWonder has just come across yet another new piece of merchandise from the Power Rangers Dino Charge! The Dino Cycle with Black Ranger figure!

This Dino Cycle, a variation on the standard yellow/black cycle, was found in the St Cloud MN Toys R Us location. Luckily for us GoseiWonder was kind enough to not only take an image of it on the shelf, but also snap an image for the back of the packaging giving us our first glimpse at how the Cycle splits in two, as well as the other 2 color variations with rangers, and stock images showing off how the Dino Charge Megazord interacts with the rest of the line!

GoseiWonder was also kind enough to take a brief video showcasing how the Dino Charger included with the just release Para Zord works!

Switch on!

TokuNation returns with a brand new photo gallery of one of the most classic tokusatsu heroes out there, S.H. Figuarts Kikaider! Recently released as a Tamashii Web Exclusive Kiakider is the titular hero of Jinzo Ningen Kikaider (Android Kikaider) from 1972. Created by the late Shotaro Ishinimori, Kikaider was his first live action Tokusatsu hero since Kamen Rider. And in a legacy that includes Kamen Rider & Himitsu Sentai Goranger, some of the lesser known heroes like Kikaider might be looked over from time to time. But Tamashii Nations has stepped up to the plate to deliver this figure.

Based on his TV appearance, S.H. Figuarts Kikaider captures the intricate detail and robotic nature of the on screen character. Though it lacks a bit in the accessory department the figure has some personality to it that classic toku fans will latch onto. With the recently released Hakaider and the upcoming Kikaider 01 as well, the Kikader family is slowly growing in the S.H. Figuarts line. Check out our full gallery of this awesome figure after the jump by clicking “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post.

Let the hunt begin!

Our buddy raz has been watching the Toys’R’Us computer systems and learned the other day that the first shipment of Power Rangers Dino Charge toys would be arriving at some stores this week. After a phone call to one of the stores, Toys’R’Us in Mentor, OH, raz has confirmed that they have a couple of the Dino Zords out for sale. The other big news is that we finally have a name for two of the zords!

 

  • Raptor Zord (the Green Ranger‘s zord)
  • Para Zord (the Black Ranger‘s zord)

If you’re in the area what are you waiting for? Go get those new toys! It would also appear that the first shipment of toys for those in the west coast and southwest are not far behind – raz has stated that the toys are in the distribution center ready to go!

Rocket Powered Reading #2
Let’s take a look this week at one of the central villains of In Space, Dark Specter. As you may or may not have noticed by now Dark Specter bears a strong (100% identical) resemblance to another past foe of the rangers. Maligore from, Turbo: A Power Rangers Movie. That’s because the Maligore costume was simply reused for Dark Specter, though Specter could speak and was quoted as being substantially more powerful. At least once within the show’s continuity this resemblance was remarked upon by Divatox, who herself almost wed Maligore in the Turbo movie.

Blatant costume reuse of this nature doesn’t happen quite that much these days but it’s fun to notice. Off and on over the years various re-releases of the original Mighty Morphin Power Rangers movie have even featured the Maligore/Dark Specter image in the background of the DVD cover as well. This is itself even more odd as the central villain of that film was Ivan Ooze.
