Power Rangers Megaforce Gosei Morpher Toy Review

UPDATED 1/20/13 8 PM EST
I went to Toys R Us today near International Mall, which was rebuilt to include Baby R Us within it as it used to have Pets Mart next to it. I got it for 40% off along with a Retrofire Samurai Megazord for my grand nephew Jaiden. The megazord keeps falling apart, the shoulder armor and waist parts. Anyways, I usually don't get US morphers but this one is great! Jaiden loves it! I tried using my old 2008 CCG cards (US equivalent to RangerStrike) and some work! It was Jaiden's idea to stick the old cards in there. Also, thanks to Furydiamond for most of the cards as he gave them to me at PMC.




Here are some that work:
SPD Red Swat card = RPM yellow, Jungle Fury Blue Power Up, Time Force Ranger (Quantum)
 SPD Battlized Red Ranger = Super Samurai Blue, Operation Overdrive Blue, Operation Overdrive Yellow, Jungle Fury Yellow Power Up,  Super Samurai Green, Operation Overdrive Black
Delta Runner 5 card = Operation Overdrive Yellow
Delta Runner 3 = Ninja Storm Green RPM Blue and Super Samurai Blue.
Camile and Wolf Ranger = Lost Galaxy Megazord
Power Up Yellow Cheetah Ranger = Lightspeed Rescue Red
Blue Wild Force = Operation Overdrive Pink
Delta Command Megazord = Operation Overdrive Silver, Megaforce Black Powerup
Flit = Operation Overdrive Megazord or Operation Overdrive Pink
Shiny Cheetah Ranger card = Zeo Pink, Samurai Pink, Jungle Fury Megazord, Zeo Blue, Jungle Fury Blue Power Up
  Rhino ranger = Wild Force
Delta command crawler = RPM Green and Victory Charge
Red Tiger Zord = RPM, Super Samurai Red
Mega Tigerzord = Mighty Morphin Black, Mighty Morphin Megazord
Blue Jaguar Zord = Samurai Blue, RPM Green, Jungle Fury
Tiger Ranger (16) = Operation Overdrive Yellow
Tyrannosaurus Dino Zord = Zeo Yellow, SPD Green Power Up, Mystic Force Pink Power Up
Red Dragon (Thunderzord) = Mystic Force Green, Samurai Red, Lost Galaxy Yellow, Jungle Fury Yellow Power Up, Jungle Fury Red Power Up, Ninja Storm
Power-Up Blue Ranger = Mystic Force Yellow Power Up, Turbo Pink

White Tigerzord Tiger Mode = Megaforce Megazord, Megaforce Black Power Up, Lost Galaxy Megazord
Jungle Pride Megazord = Megaforce Red

I tipped off FuryDiamond of Ranger Crew Blog and now he filmed his own tests. Funny enough, I had the cards didn't want to work when I recorded it. Some said something different like the Delta Command Crawler saying 'Victory Charge.' But out of friendly competition, here is mine:

Power Rangers Megaforce Trailer and Nick.com section

Nick.com has launched their Megaforce section.
PowerRangers.com by the way has a countdown clock to the premiere and new PRM wallpaper but no section yet.

Info on the show:
Gosei does sound like Zordon
Noah Craver / Blue - Smart, Ethan-Billy type, Jake's friend
Jake Holling / Black - Outgoing, crush on Gia
Gia Moran / Yellow - "Ms. Perfect," different clique than Emma but still friends
Emma Goodall / Pink - BMX Biking chick/Nature chick
Troy Burrows / Red - New kid/underdog/martial artist

Lavender's take on the names:
All the last names kind of sound really British. Goodall reminds me of the Monkey researcher lady, Burrows, Holling and Craver scream British to me. Not that there is anything wrong with that. Craver makes me think of carving something. Holling sounds like Hallow and Burrows reminds me of digging something. The three make me think of cutting or digging something. Moran looks like Morgan, missing the 'g.' And Goodall makes me think of 'Good' and 'All' as in 'All Good' like Emma is all that is good. Other had mentioned how Noah makes people think of Noah's Ark and water. Gia as in Earth, Jake as in Jake and the Beanstalk and Earth and nature. 

Fury Diamond of his RangerCrew Blog has posted the Nick promo from Huffington Post on YouTube:

Congrats to Fury to his new son born this week!

Spoilers: Megaforce Titles and Descriptions

SPOILERS
@kyl416 has posted on Fuñaroboard titles and descriptions. I have no idea if they are official or in order. I already know that by looking at them, they seem accurate with a full season of Goseiger. I colored them by what Ranger I think it is the focus. I usually put Red for the whole team.

1 Mega Mission (Feb 2)
When malicious aliens make their way to Earth's orbit, Gosei decides to form a new team of teenage heroes to defend the planet and carry on the proud tradition of the Power Rangers.

2 He Blasted Me With Science (Feb 9)
The alien invaders send Scaraba, an alien scientist, down to Earth to study the human race and determine how best to defeat them.  Meanwhile, Troy finds himself face-to-face with Creepox.
(Could be Goseiger Ep 2)

3 Going Viral
When Noah has trouble lifting Jake's heavy weapon he begins to doubt his abilities, until he learns that believing in yourself is all that's necessary to get any job done.
(Sounds like Episode 5 of Goseiger)

4 Stranger Ranger
As the Rangers learn that concentration is essential to perfecting their Ranger skills, they are distracted by a civilian falsely claiming to be a Ranger.
(Goseiger Ep 10; looks like 'Gosei Green' will be a civilian fan)

5 United We Stand
Best Friends Gia and Emma are turned into bitter enemies by a vicious monster, Beezara.  Meanwhile, the guys are captured by "queen bee" Beezara and turned into her drone slaves.
(Looks like they are adapting Episode 9 of Goseiger)

6 Harmony and Dizchord
When a monster attacks the city with music that produces physical pain, the Rangers must fight back in an unorthodox way with a song of their own.
(Sounds like Episode 4 of Goseiger)

7 Who's Crying Now?
After Troy deals with some small-minded bullies at school, the Rangers square off against a more dangerous bully, Creepox.
(Sounds like Episode 16 of Goseiger)

8 Robo Knight
The mysterious Robo Knight joins the Power Rangers.  Can he help them defeat toxic monsters that threaten the earth?
(Sounds like Goseiger 17)

9 Prince Takes Knight
While the Rangers are unsure about how to work with the newly-arrived Robo Knight, Vrak captures the robotic Ranger in an attempt to reprogram him for his own nefarious purposes.
(Sounds like Episode 19)

10 Man and Machine
When a shadow-stealing monster attacks, the Rangers must teach Robo Knight the power of teamwork in order to defeat him.
(Sounds like Episode 22)

11 Ultra Power
The Rangers must find and retrieve a powerful ancient weapon known as the Wild Sword, but Vrak is determined to harness its power for himself.
(Sounds like Super Goseiger will be Ultra Mode and this is Episode 24)

12 Last Laugh
It's no laughing matter when Gia and the other Rangers are captured by a monster who feeds on human laughter.  It's up to straight-laced Noah and no-nonsense Robo Knight to figure out how to work together and save their friends.
(Sounds like Episode 25 and 26)

13 Dream Snatcher
A dream snatching monster preys on Emma and other humans, eating away their goals and ambitions.  With one Ranger down, the team must figure out how to defeat the monster before Emma is lost forever.
(Sounds like Episode 27, but Black was the one sleeping)

14 Gosei Ultimate
When Bluefur and Bigs use the Aurora box to become even more powerful, Gosei and the Power Rangers must pull out all the stops to defeat them and save the earth.
(Sounds like Episode 31 & 32)

15 The Human Factor
The Power Rangers encounter their first Robotic opponents, who try to convince Robo Knight that humans are the true danger to the Earth.
(Sounds like Ep 33)

16 Rico the Robot
When one of Metal Alice's robots malfunctions, Emma and the Power Rangers decide to adopt it and teach it the values of friendship and freedom.
(Goseiger Ep 37)

17 Staying on Track
The Rangers must race to save the day when Metal Alice plots to throw the city into chaos by derailing a passenger train.  Meanwhile, Robo Knight comes closer to understanding humans when he meets a young boy.
(Goseiger Ep 38)

18 The Human Condition
Admiral Malkor awakens from his cocoon stronger than ever and determined to destroy the Power Rangers.
(Sounds like Episode 15)

19 The Messenger
The Rangers' victory over the Warstar aliens is short-lived when they discover Metal Alice has turned Vrak into a powerful and menacing cyborg.
(Sounds like Episode 39 and 40)

20 End Game
When Cyborg Vrak, Metal Alice and the Messenger launch a vicious attack against the Power Rangers, it will take all their powers and abilities to save the earth.
(Could be Ep 44)
