Once again our very own administrator Sentai Tamashii has sat down with Bandai Of America reps to discuss the upcoming Power Rangers Super Megaforce toyline!
Super Megaforce Ranger figures
will be divided into 4″ and 5″ categories. 4″ figures will feature less articulation and paint apps compared to the 5″ figures.
Legendary Zords and Vehicles
All additional vehicles/zords that can combine with the Legendary Megazord will come with a Ranger Key specific to the series the vehicle represents. The other vehicles shown to be able to combine with the Legendary Megazord on display will have uniform names. “Insert series name” Cycle. So for the bikes on display currently they’d be the Lightspeed Rescue Cycle and the Time Force Cycle. The Zeo vehicle seen on display is called the Red Battlezord Car. And the 2 additional robots seen on display in front of the Legendary Megazord are called Exozords and can accommodate Ranger figures to pilot them.
Ranger Keys
will initially be sold with other toys in the line. They will later be sold in a 3-Pack format but there are currently NO PLANS to offer the keys in full ranger team sets. Additionally the flip gimmick is not activated by any sort of button at all. You push the edge of the key and it flips automatically. The Wild Force Red Lion Zord also features a ranger key gimmick. One can be inserted behind it’s head but there are no electronics present for it to activate. Only an action feature.
And this rounds out our last interview with BOA at NYCC 2013! On behalf of the entire community we’d like to thank them for sitting down to take the time to have a discussion with Sentai Tamashii! They were kind enough to take a look at our little operation here and have expressed an interest in working with us in the future to promote even better Power Rangers products! We’re happy to help in any way we can!
