Foreign gaming website Steparu.com has reported that the open beta for the Power Rangers Online game will begin next week on December 20th! The Korean MMO, developed by Ntreev, is a side scrolling beat-em-up game starring the cast of Mahou Sentai Magiranger (which was released in Korea as Power Rangers Magic Force).

Have you been keeping up with the Chinese pseudo-sentai Giant Savers (Jushen ZhanJiDui)? If you have then you know this show has actually been in production since roughly this time in 2010! So far there’s only been a handful of promo videos for it and some grainy looks at the mecha.
Well today, courtesy of Jefusions’ facebook page, we’ve been given our first look at the toy of the Giant Savers main mecha, Giant Braver! This single in box shot doesn’t give us a lot to go on but it certainly looks like it could be a great toy.
In addition to this a recent Taobao auction also gives us our first look at the 2 other mecha from the series. Assault Saver and Crack Saver!

This incredible film of Kaiju emerging from a portal in the Pacific Ocean and the giant robot Jaegers built to defeat them, is currently set for a July 12, 2013 release but there’s already plenty to whet your appetite on the official site Pan Pacific Defense Corps such as schematics of multiple Jaegers and even a viral video complete with voiceover by Transformers alum David Kaye.
If you’ve been living under a rock, we here at TokuNation are happy to help out! Check out the trailer for yourself below!
Pacific Rim is directed by Guillermo del Toro and stars Charlie Hunnam, Rinko Kituchi, Idris Elba and Ron Perlman and comes out in what may feel like the longest seven months ever! Stick with us here at TokuNation.com for more Pacific Rim news!
The (assumed) final piece of Megaforce Wave 1 is now available!
The Lion Mechazord- featuring a miniaturized Robo Knight- combines with the previously released Sea & Sky Cycles to form the “Gosei Grand Megazord” and then with previous Mechazords to form the powerful “Gosei Great Grand Megazord!”
With congratulations to collector RedRanger87 for finding the Lion Mech!
Welcome to another round of Let’s Watch Wednesdays At Tokunation.com! This week we discuss the following:
We are getting towards the end of both series! Click on the above links to join the discussions!Thanks to Tokunation member xSkullheartx for this heads up. HJU has confirmed that relatively new actor Shusuke Saito will play Kyoryu Black on the 37th Super Sentai Juuden Sentai Kyoryuger! And thanks to Risingsuntokusatsu we’ve also learned that not all members of the Kyoryugers will be Japanese. Now whether that means their characters will be of different nationalities or the actors playing them will be is up for discussion. Lending credit to this is confirmation that Kyoryu Blacks’ civilian name will be Ian.
Another rumor that Risingsun brings up is one about the villains. Apparently unlike our heroes the Kyoryugers, their villains may not be mechanically based. And instead may set up a nature vs technology battle with the bad guys on the nature side for once. Very interesting. Be sure to take these rumors with a grain of salt though.

One set contains the Snake Axe, Tiger Claw and Shark Bowgun weapons for the Black, yellow and blue rangers, while the second includes the Dragon Sword and Phoenix Shot weapons for the red and pink rangers. The five weapons can also be combined to form the Mega Blaster. As with most of the Megaforce releases a number of power cards are also included!
