Nearly half a year ago the Tokusatsu fan community was ablaze over a new show that seemed to mimic Super Sentai from the country of China. We saw some behind the scenes images of new heroes, new “zords”, and in all honesty, they looked pretty good.

Then there was silence.

But now there’s some images of the figures and mecha from Taobao.com!

Taobao.com has uploaded numerous images – all six of the new heroes (Red, Dark Blue, Light Blue, Black, Yellow, Green) as well as three combinations of zords (Giant Team Robot, Sky Team Robot, and Earth Team Robot) as well as the henshin devices (scrolls). All in all, it looks pretty good!

Jushen ZhanJiDui is said to air sometime next year in China. Click the title bar of this story to check out all the images!

Thanks to Youtube user Wotakufighter2121 and a heads up from Tokunation member RiderSkyward we have our very first look at the DX LT-06 Tategami Rai-Oh from Tokumei Sentai Gobuster! This figure is BIG, interesting, and looks like a lot of fun. For some it may not be worth the high price tag and to others this fine toy may seem like too little too late in the Gobuster DX line. However this figure looks to be a great addition to any Gobuster collection. This video review shows off the Rai-Oh in Robo, Lion, and Bike (with Gobuster Ace) modes but does not show off it’s combining gimmicks with the other DX Buster machines.

UPDATE: Video now posted with additional combinations!

The new Samurai Gigazord has been released. This toy was sighted both at Toys R Us and at Walmart. Unlike the larger Samurai Megazord and auxillary zords, this smaller Gigazord cannot break down into individual zord components. However, what it can do is combine with the other zords! For example, it can combine with the following:

  • Samurai Megazord
  • Clawzord
  • Bull Megazord
There is a generous amount of attachment pegs on the limbs. Though this Gigazord does not break down, it can transform into what is advertised as a “spaceship” on the package. Check out images of the new Gigazord in package after the jump.

As well as the brand new Power Rangers Megaforce toys revealed at this weekend’s Power Morphicon, Bandai’s booth also has a few other reveals and a trip down memory lane for fans of the franchise since its early days.

Celebrating the 20th anniversary, on show were the new Power Morpher with five dino coins, the diecast Collector’s Edition Dino Megazord, Sentai series Shinken-Oh, Power Rangers Mask Collection, Armoured Mighty Morphin’ Red Ranger figure and the Touma vinyl figures.

On top of that, there is an extensive showcase of Power Rangers toys throughout the years, featuring a shelf of all the red rangers to appear in the franchise thus far!

You can check out the mirrored image gallery after the jump!

Power Morphicon kicks off this weekend, and the first big event is the official unveiling of MegaForce toys!

Display shelves have also confirmed some story/character details:

*Goseigers’ “Brajira” is now known as Vrak
*The Foot Soldiers will be known as Loogies.

At the moment a majority of these toys appear to be near-direct adaptations of Tensou Sentai Goseiger material (with some exceptions including new “Motorcycle Headers”) but exact details regarding differences are not available. Stay tuned for more updates as Morphicon continues!

With our thanks to RangerCast in attendance!

It is probably safe to say that most people are here on this site because at some point in their childhood they watched Mighty Morphin’ Power Rangers. Well that phenomenon celebrates it’s 20th anniversary this year, and you can feel the jubilation at Bandai America’s display at San Diego Comic-Con.

It looks as though a lot of product is coming our way to celebrate the occasion including the release some popular Megazords, Mighty Morphin Mask sets (similar to the Super Sentai Mask sets from Japan), a Collector Edition Power Morpher belt, and a Mighty Morphin Red Ranger figure were all on display.

Also included are images of the SDCC Exclusive 6 figure Super Samurai set! All items have a 2013 date attached to them (except for the SDCC set which is of course, available for purchase at SDCC right now).

The latest toy catalogue scans have revealed new mecha soon to be appearing in Tokumei Sentai Go-Busters! First up is LT-06 Tategami RaiOh, which can switch between robot, motorcycle and lion modes.

LT-06 can also combine with GT-02 Gorilla and RH-03 Rabbit to form Go-BusterRaiOh! Adding BC-04 Beetle and SJ-05 Stag into the mix forms Go-BusterKing.

The question is where does this leave CB-01 Cheetah? Check out the images and discuss after the jump! EDIT- New image shows exactly where CB-01 fits into the configuration! :)
