Not my fan drawing above.

For the 16th season in 2008, Power Rangers Jungle Fury, there were only 3 main rangers at the start of the series. So the toy company Bandai America released 3 extra original Rangers that did not appear in the original Japanese series Juken Sentai Gekiranger that aired the year before.

The 3 Rangers later appeared in the series as the Spirit Rangers [Elephant Ranger (green), Shark Ranger (cyan) and Bat Ranger (black). They are based on the extra zords the Rangers had.

Last year 2009, for the 17th season Power Rangers RPM, even though there was 7 Rangers, Bandai America still released more Rangers, but they never appeared in the series. They are based on the last three zords the Ranger Red receives in the series called the PaleoMax Megazord. Fans have nicknamed these Rangers as the Dino Rangers as they are Mammoth Ranger (red), Triceratops Ranger (cyan), and T-Rex Ranger (Silver).

Anyhoo, fans had suspected Bandai would pull this again and make a Ranger out of the Carrier Zord Titanus but thankfully (or not, really), that has not happened. Either way would have been fine for me.

Second Wave Power Rangers

UPDATED 2/17/10 5PM EST
Last night pictures from the 2010 Toy Fair came out of the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers (1st and 2nd wave). I am surprised to see the White Ranger and the Rangers with Dragon Shields (boys only of course, Blue didn't get it in the show) but sad to see no Deluxe Dragonzord or Rita.

The toyline includes:

Titanus Mix & Morph Base
It is a big base to change your Mix & Morph Figures, it is unknown if the Megazords will be able to combine with it. I doubt it. New Mix & Morph Figures are translucent Yellow & Black, Red with Dragon Shield and translucent Megazord. It actually looks well-crafted! I think it would be a waste if it didn't let the megazords combine but it doesn't look like it comes with its attachments necessary to make the Ultrazord.



Action Figures
Red, Blue and Black Rangers with shields and an extra-armored Green Ranger.




Mighty Morphin Power Rangers Morphin Rangers
These strange digital clock Rangers.



Zord Attack Vehicles
A new Red one, and White Ranger one--people complaining about his bikini look. I like the Blue Ranger vehicle but not the look of the Ranger.



Collectible Figures
So far only Megazord, Dragonzord in Battle mode, White Ranger and Red Ranger with Dragon Shield.

Mighty Morphin Air Attack Megazord
Radio-controlled. It has helicopter parts on top. Where the heck is my Dragonzord?


Power Morpher
Biggest thing is the Power Morpher, but from this look, it looks like it has a key and rip cord. The biggest thing is that it comes with the Power Coins and Ninja Coins--but what concerns me is that there is one wiht a Ranger face. I think maybe they will be two-faced like the McDonald's Ninja Coins back for MMPR:TM. The coins might shoot out.


Super Editorial
I would be a real shame if they didn't make a Dragonzord and Titanus compatible with the Dino Megazord, they are just 3 zords to combine!!! How hard could that be? And why not a regular Power Morpher.

THESE ARE FIVE THINGS FANS REALLY WANT:

1. Deluxe Dragonzord to fit with Dino Megazord
2. Titanus to fit with Megazord & Dragonzord
3. Power Morpher (like the 1993 one)
4. Dragon Morpher
5. Rita Repulsa action figure

How hard could that be???!!!

ATTENTION! NEW!
Collection DX Gallery
Collection DX reports that they spoke to a rep and quote:
"For Power Rangers, the renewed Mighty Morphin' line will continue through 2010 and beyond. Their top-seller was the retooled Deluxe Megazord. When asked about the dragonzord, they said that the #1 request was for a Dragonzord. Bandai confirmed a Deluxe Dragonzord for sometime in 2011. they said this Dragonzord will feature electronic lights, sound and motorized action. When talking to the Bandai reps about the future line, they said that the plan is to move back to the Japanese series, starting with Shinkenger, probably in 2012."

It is no surprise they are continuing the toyline to the next year, but it does surprise they are coming out with the White Ranger so quickly. They certainly are getting ahead of themselves. And as for Shinkenger for 2012, I doubt it.

Bandai America's Commercial: Day with Dad

I'd though I'd share this cute commercial.

This is my 500th post!

Face Ice Cream

You know those Ice Cream bars with the bubble gum eyes of popular characters you always see on Ice Cream trucks? Well, I was wondering how many have been Power Rangers. Companies owning their cartoon characters sell the license to Ice Cream companies (like Blue Bunny, Popsicle, and Good Humor-Beyers) to manufacture these ice creams. Many popular characters like Tweety Bird, Spider-Man, Ninja Turtles and Pink Panther switch companies through years.

"Saban Entertainment partnered with Pillsbury two years ago to create cut-and-cook cookies that featured the image of a Power Ranger in chocolate. The campaign ran for just a few weeks but helped draw attention to the Power Rangers' all-reaching promotion, said Rand Bremer, vp, licensing, food and beverage products at Saban. Since then, Saban has maintained a long-running Power Rangers frozen novelty license agreement with Good Humor-Breyers." " New products include Marvel Comics' Incredible Hulk Ice Bars and a set of Power Rangers Turbo Ice Bars."
- Robert Scally 1997 for Discount Store News



Pink Panther Ice Cream Bar has been around since the 70's but it's look hasn't really changed. Maybe slightly, but because its made by a different company.

Blue Bunny even manufactured a Sailor Moon Face Ice Cream Bar, but it was just the wand, it was a generic wand with a flower shape in the center. I was told it tasted bad. This wand was recycled for Sabrina the Teenage Witch Ice Cream I saw a couple of years later after Sailor Moon was canceled in 1996, a year after it started in the US by DiC.

Here is this weird Super Legends one. This is not American, it is Armenian. Click the link, they have three pics of different flavors. Weird thing is that it is the Operation Overdrive team on the logo and Pink is clearly Red re-colored.


I remember seeing In Space bars once, and they only made Red and Blue. And for Time Force, I read somewhere online they had Red and Blue. And for Wild Force, we know they made Blue and Black. And I know they made Turbo but I can't remember what colors. I know they only made two. For Lost Galaxy and Lightspeed Rescue, they only had Red and Blue. I know they never made girl ones.



The pictures seen are the only Ice Cream Face Bar I could find, you have any pictures, please send them to me!

And this Mystic Force product was accidentally called Power Rangers Star Force on this UK Site.
