At last year’s Toy Fair, Bandai announced the domestic release of the DX Gosei Great mould that saw release in Japan akin to the Samurai Megazord.

The toy has finally resurfaced and is now available for pre order  on Amazon. Though the website lists it as the “Legendary Megazord”, the toy photoed is indeed the Gosei Great  not to confuse it with the US name for Gokaioh.

No word on a street date was given, but Amazon.com lists the Nihon Edition DX Gosei Great for $80 with a Free Shipping listing available.

In case you missed it, today was the season finale for Power Rangers Megaforce with the 20th episode entitled “End Game”. A brief episode synopsis has the Power Rangers going up against Cyborg Vrak, Metal Alice, and The Messenger all before The Armada from all stretches of the universe arrives to invade the Earth!

Click here to vote on the episode and discuss it!

Our friend Fury Diamond took the time to upload some of his favorite moments from the episode. We’ve mirrored a couple of the clips below, but to see the rest of them, you’ll have to click here and go to his blog!

In the clip below, we see the Red Ranger Troy training for the upcoming battle. He’s quickly interrupted by the others as the battle begins.

As the battle rages on, the Power Rangers have probably their best morph of the season.

Finally, this last clip CONTAINS SPOILERS – DO NOT WATCH IF YOU DO NOT WANT TO BE SPOILED. It’s the final scene of the season, where we find out just how much trouble our heroes are in. Special note, never heard a mentor panic as much as Gosei does in this clip.

Again, please check out Fury Diamond’s blog, Samurai Cast, to see this and even more!

So what did you think of this finale?

And now that the “first season” of Power Rangers Megaforce has come to an end, we have another poll open for you to tell us what you thought of this season.

Apparently Hulu didn’t get the message of the order of episodes airing of this season’s Power Rangers Megaforce because they jumped the gun. While you’re still unable to view “Raising Spirits” – the Halloween episode that aired this last weekend – the episode slated to air THIS weekend, “The Human Factor”, is currently available on Hulu.

This episode features the premiere of Metal Alice, the robot Vrak creates to help him destroy the Power Rangers and conquer the Earth. On top of a ton of beautiful original footage of Vrak and Metal Alice, we have a great episode as Robo Knight has to make the ultimate decision – if he’s to protect the Earth, wouldn’t removing the very humans that pollute it be logical?
