Godzilla, one of the most recognizable characters in history who has become an icon of Japanese cinema since his debut in 1954, will once again take center stage in the new film by acclaimed filmmaker Gareth Edwards (Monsters).

Just a few more months until Godzilla returns to the big screen!
Days ago , Kamen Rider Battle Ride War 2 was announced. Since the announcement, the the offical site for the game launched giving us our first glance at the game. The screenshots confirms that we’ll be getting missions based on W Forever, Megamax, and All Riders.
What’s more, the official site confirms that the game will be released on the Nintendo WiiU console as well as PS3. Regrettably, Nintendo region locked the WiiU so the game will not work on consoles outside of Japan. For those of us importing the game, the PS3 version is the way to go. Battleride War 2 launches in June.
The most magical and mystical of Let’s Watch Wednesdays continues with Mahou Sentai Magiranger at Tokunation!
It looks like another of the Ozu boys is in love! But Makito may not be ready for his “lovely” love interest, or a possessed cactus. When the flower of love blooms, the Hades Beast is born! And thanks to a scheme (and a concert) by Nai & Mare, Houka will face the challenge of being a vampire! Apparently one she may not make it out of. Vancuria is the Queen of Vampires, and only Magi Yellow’s abilities can stop her. Tsubasa is Houka’s only chance.

After we first got word of the possible next Power Rangers series just 2 days ago you’d think it would be a while before any more solid information would come out. Well Saban Brands has officially confirmed the existence of Power Rangers Dino Charge and released the initial marketing poster for the series! Main image comes from Toy News International, back cover via Rangercrew.
The thought was that this series may be a combination of footage from Tokumei Sentai Go-Busters & Zyuden Sentai Kyoryuger. Using much the same formula as Megaforce & Super Megaforce. Instead it looks like it may be solely an adaptation of Kyoryuger. Time will tell if any of the footage from Go-Busters may still be adapted but at this point there’s strong evidence that it may not be.
Get ready to see the Power Rangers Dino Charge chase down the 12 Paragon Prisms in February 2015!
After seeing a preview of it at the Nuremberg Toy Fair, our friends over at Rangercrew have posted a toy catalogue that showcases the Q-Rex Megazord/Dino Megazord!
Also known in Japan as GoJyuJin, the Q-Rex/Dino Megazord is the Megazord for the Silver Super Megaforce Ranger. When it will appear in show is unknown, but now knowing we are getting a toy of it is exciting! Also, it appears that is still retains the triple-changing feature GoJyuJin had! Curiously, the picture depicting the Q-Rex/Dino Megazord in its humanoid Megazord mode has something on its back. Could it be one of the American counterpart of Furaimaru’s shurikens? Or perhaps the wings of a Mega Winger megazord? Only time will tell! Until then, enjoy the images!
