“Racer Zord, Cheetah Strike!”

When it’s time to take on a Gigantronic with the Beast Racer Zord, there’s one mighty weapon that’s sure to do the trick. To destroy these viral villains the Red Ranger can call on the Cheetah Beast Blaster for one powerful attack! And now thanks to Hasbro you can call on the power of this mighty blaster to take on your friends with the NERF Cheetah Beast Blaster!

Roleplay toys are the bread and butter of just about any modern toyline, and Power Rangers Beast Morphers is no stranger to that either. Whether it’s the Morph-X keys included with 6″ figures, the Beast-X Morpher itself, or the very NERF Cheetah Beast Blaster we’re looking at today. This is a wonderful and pretty nicely scaled roleplay blaster with powerful dart firing action and cheetah to blaster mode transformation! I’d also like to mention that this item was provided to us for FREE, direct from Hasbro. It was sent our way as a part of their generous Beast Morphers Product Review Mailer.

We’ve attached the full gallery to this post but you can also read through our full review of the NERF Cheetah Beast Blaster by clicking “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post. Next time we visit Beast Morphers, we’re taking a walk on the dark side with 6″ Basic Cybervillain Blaze!

“It’s Morphin’ Time!”

It’s been a while since we’ve tackled a Legacy release from Bandai, and with their time with the Power Rangers license coming to end, we thought it appropriate to take a look at one of their last high end releases. Making it’s way out to retail currently at Toys R Us (as they go our of business themselves) is the Legacy Zeonizer!

It’s  unfortunate that this collector’s piece is heralding the end of the line, and a retailer, but we wanted to take a look at it while we could. The Legacy Zeonizer is the latest in Bandai’s line of high end prop replicas, and frankly it may be their best effort. A wonderful recreation of the morpher used in Power Rangers Zeo, this collector’s piece features a number of built in light & sound gimmicks including unique Morphin’ call outs and specific colors for each ranger. Of course the icing on the cake is it’s best feature, the ability to play the entire Power Rangers Zeo Opening Theme!

You can check out our full 40 image gallery of the Legacy Zeonizer as well as a full review and breakdown of it’s features by clicking “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post. We’ll be back next time with a gallery from Kamen Rider Kabuto!

– Dino Charge Megazord
– Velociraptor Zord
– Cycle & Figure set
– 5″ Dino Charge Red Ranger

Exact names for some of these items are yet to be confirmed, but it’s certainly an awesome initial wave of offerings. With the toys slated to hit stores sometime in the next few weeks we could being seeing these items in person very soon. We’ll continue to update this thread as we and our friends at Rangercrew continue to discover more information about this exciting new toyline.

Rounding out the number of giant robos and trains for Ressha Sentai ToQger, we have our very first look at the Hyper Ressha Tei Oh! This behemoth train is decked out in black with gold chrome, this giant can become either a Ressha on it’s own, it’s own robot, or become a mobile carrier for ToQ Oh called Hyper Ressha Terminal! Although Hyper is part of it’s name it doesn’t appear this mecha in any way accommodates the actual DX Hyper Ressha.

But it doesn’t end there! This new ressha can assume a combined robot mode that uses the forward section of all the main line resshas, ToQ Rainbow! We only have this single image to go off of for now, but for the time at least it doesn’t appears there’s anywhere for the second half of each Ressha to go. But this is definitely an imposing combination that’s sure to divide fans with it’s design.

The images from Amazon keep on rolling in! With special thanks to @PockyBandit on Twitter for sharing these finds, we have our first official images for the Turbo Cycle, Operation Overdrive Cycle, the Silver Spear roleplay item, and the Silver Ranger Hero Set. These items should come with Ranger Keys, though it is unclear which key comes with what (the same Wild Force Red Ranger key is shown on the Cycles, and Robo Knight Ranger Key with the Silver Spear).

We’ve attached the images on to this news story, so click the news story to check them all out!

Courtesy as always of @razzle1337 on twitter, we have some more new Power Rangers toy images!

On the Dino Charge side of things we have our very first look at the upcoming Dino Charge rangers 6-pack! But wait! That’s not a Gold Ranger in the 6th spot, but instead a villain. Astute fans of Kyoryuger will no doubt recognize this character as Dogold from the Deboss Army and understand why he’s been included in this set. His Power Rangers counterpart name has yet to be confirmed. Also included is the combined team weapon also yet to be named (Kentrospiker in Kyoryuger). And we also catch a glimpse of the Dino Charge Red Ranger mask from the Ranger Training set!

For Super Megaforce there’s actually quite a few new images to behold!

  • All of the Wave 4 Ranger Keys packs. Mighyt Morphin, Operation Overdrive, Alien Rangers, Jungle Fury, Dino Thunder, RPM!
  • 12″ figures of Megaforce Red & Super Megaforce Silver Rangers.
  • Ultimate Legendary Megazord 3-pack! This massive 3-pack will contain the Legendary Megazord, Q-Rex Megazord, & Turbo Falconzords all needed to create the final Ultimate combination!

These images are a bit grainy for the time being but you can bet that we’ll be seeing these upcoming items at San Diego Comic-Con. And of course remember that TokuNation will be there on the show floor covering all of your tokusatsu needs! Be sure to follow the whole TokuNation news team:

Bandai’s official youtube Channel brings us a promotional video of the up coming DX Durian&Acorn Lock Seed Set and Arms Change Bravo figure. Except this one is special; Actor Metal Yoshinda whom our fandom will know fondly as Mr.Dangerous himself appears to promote his own toys while completely in character as Oren.
