The much-hyped Legacy Power Morpher has apparently hit store shelves at last!

Thanks to member Kamen Blitz for the heads-up!
Toei have officially announced the cast list and plot for the forthcoming Kamen Rider x Super Sentai x Space Sheriff: Super Hero Taisen Z. Previously we reported that Osamu Kaneda would be directing the film, and it is now confirmed that the writer will again be Shoji Yonemura.
The evil organization Shocker has returned with the power of magic, now calling themselves Space Shocker. They claim that they are here to destroy the universe. Kamen Rider Wizard, Gavan, Go-Busters and eventually Kyoryugers join the fight against the evil organization. All your favorite heroes will be back, turning despair into hope. It will be an all new, never seen before hero epic!
The current cast list for the film is as follows:
Yuma Ishigaki as Geki Jumonji/Gavan Type-G
Shunya Shiraishi as Haruto Soma/Kamen Rider Wizard
Ryo Ryusei as Daigo Kiryu/Kyoryu Red
Junya Ikeda as Gai Ikari/Gokai Silver
Arisa Komiya as Yoko Usami/Yellow Buster
Hirotaro Honda as an unknown character. Hirotaro Honda previously portrayed Riku Kagami, Arata Kagami’s (Gattack) father in Kamen Rider Kabuto.
Super Hero Taisen Z will be released in Japanese cinemas on April 27th.
A big thank you to the good people over at Henshin Justice Unlimited for the translation.
After being shown along with a complete Zodiarts display at Tamashi Nations earlier last year, the S.H.Figuarts Zero Aries Zodiart has finally been fully revealed.
The tyrant of Subaruboshi will be released as Toei Hero web exclusive, and he will be due out in July.
Thanks to Tokunation member MidoGreen for giving us the heads up!
Let the hunt begin!
The collectable Power Rangers card game has been released and purchased at a WalMart store in Kentucky. The starter deck (apx. $9.98) gives you 40 cards, a game mat, and two dice. The “booster” packs (apx. $3.98) contain 10 cards, with one secret holographic card included.
For those eager to call around and see if they have them in stock, use the following information, but be warned that some WalMart stores rely on vendors to stock any trading cards/card games, and just because the product is in the back, may not be able to get you that product without the vendor first stocking the product.
UPC: Booster Pack: 045557238407
Starter Deck: 045557238421
Happy hunting!
Special thanks to our friends at MorphinLegacy.com for the news and updates, and a special thanks to Power Rangers fan Henshinbrynp for the find and the picture.
I really don’t need to add anything to this, so we’ll just leave this here.
Only a couple of days left until the premiere of Power Rangers Megaforce, only on Nickelodeon.
Even though Zyuden Sentai Kyoryuger hasn’t begun to air yet, Alpha Hero Shock is reporting that toy listings for the 2013 Super Sentai series include news of a sixth member to the team – Kyoryu Gold!
According to these listings, Kyoryu Gold will transform using the GaburiChanger, a gauntlet, and his weapon will be the ZanderThunder, an electric sword. His robot will be the 6th Zyudenryu, Pteragodon, the golden pteranodon, that will transform into PteRaidenOh.
Meanwhile the main Kyoryuger team will receive a new ally in the form of Bunpachy, a black pachycephalosaurus. They will also have new weapons – the Fang Shot and the Shieldron Slasher. Finally, the toy listings note that a Super Sentai Zyudenchi set is planned.
It has been speculated that Kyoryu Gold’s identity will in fact be Torin (the team’s mentor), in a role similar to that of Dekamaster in Dekaranger. His announcement coming this early adds a lot of credence to the theory.
