Our good friends over at Ranger Crew Blog have put up an extensive review of the recently released Power Rangers Megaforce Gosei Morpher!

This morphin’ device uses cards … but unlike the Super Sentai version, the Megaforce version gives us a bunch of cards of previous Power Rangers! The question on everyones’ mind is … will this morpher stick around for the second season of Megaforce, or are we going to see Ranger Keys coming in to play sometime during the Gokaiger adaption portion of the season?

Only time will tell!

Again, check out our friends at the Ranger Crew Blog for all the awesomeness that is the Megaforce Gosei Morpher!

Hey Power Ranger fans! Do you know who Ahmit Bhaumik is? Well, for starters, he wrote the first real anniversary episode for the series with the Power Rangers Wild Force episode Forever Red. But have you heard about the un-used storyline that he outlined for what we know as Power Rangers Ninja Storm, which he had code-named Hexagon?

The original goal of that season would to be tying up previous characters and storylines from the Power Rangers universe. Villains like Scorpina, Prince Gasket and Archerina, even Lokar would return and play roles in the season. Main characters in the show? Tommy Oliver, or as you might remember him, Mighty Morphin Power Rangers Green and White Ranger, Power Rangers Zeo Red Ranger, Joel the Green Lightspeed Rescue Ranger, Ninjor from the third season of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, and even more (like the Alien Rangers).

It would have been Ninja Rangers (Red, Yellow, Blue) against Beetle Rangers (Dark Red, Dark Blue) … both teams heroes but akin to a storyline similar to Marvel Comics’ Civil War series where heroes battle heroes over the right or wrong way to be a hero. Ahmit even wanted to add a third Beetle Ranger/seventh Ninja Storm Ranger to even out the guy/guy/girl ratio.

And Tommy Oliver would have returned to be the Green Samurai Ranger, the most powerful Ranger of all time.

Want to read the whole synopsis? We got you covered. Just click right here and check it out! Don’t forget to come back here and post your thoughts on what COULD have been … or even if you think it SHOULD have been or not.

Thanks to Tokunation member KamenRiderOOO for this heads up. Timeless Dimension Blog has posted up another round of magazine scans, this time showcasing the as of yet unseen Kamen Rider Wizard Land Dragon! This form will use the mighty Wizard Dragons claws as weapons. Also seen in these scans is the special ring made to coincide with Land Dragon, Gravity. Which will allow Wizard to physically move Phantoms as though they are weightless. Land Hurricane debuts in January 2013, more than likely just as we get our first appearance of Kamen Rider Beast!

With Kamen Rider Beast set to make his debut appearance in Kamen Rider Wizard very soon, new magazine scans have provided fans with a look at not only the character’s human appearance, but also his inner phantom the Beast Chimera!

As the name suggests, the Beast Chimera is a mix of different creatures – namely a gold lion, an orange falcon, a green chameleon, a blue dolphin and a red ox.
