Saban Brands, Power Rangers and Paul Frank at Licensing International Expo 2011

Last year at the Licensing Europe Expo in September. In October at Cannes they had the MMPR Rangers at an event. But they weren't there last June. Some fans that went are surprised Saban Brands have a big booth. The Expo is from 14 to 16. Sorry, no new info.

They had a 'Power Ranger flash mob' with adults in real suits and children in Samurai Halloween costumes of Samurai (blue and red) and Pink MMPR costumes. I don't think the Pink Samurai Halloween costume has been made yet as it is not here and there is no picture on the websites. Present up in this picture are MMPR Blue, MMPR Yellow, Lunar Wolf Ranger, SPD Red, Yellow Mystic Ranger, Red Galaxy Ranger, MMPR Red, Red Dino Ranger, Green, Yellow, Red, Pink, Blue and Gold Samurai Ranger. Also an unidentified Red Ranger behind Green Samurai Ranger.

Someone tweeted this that was at a Saban Brands event.


Non-Power Ranger News:
Along with a 2012 cartoon Christmas TV special being officially announced today, Saban plans to have 1990s fashion icon character Julius the Monkey power a cross-country Winnebago tour and a balloon in this fall’s Macy’s Thanksgiving Parade. They are planning the Christmas TV special of Paul Frank to be like Charlie Brown Christmas specials playing yearly on one of the big networks but are trying out Nick as well.

New Upcoming Gokaiger Ranger Keys Set


These are Gasphon Keys Sets 4-7.
GokaiSilver, Hime Shinken Red, Gao Red, Gao Blue, Gao Yellow, Gao Black, Gao White, Gao Silver, Time Fire, Mega Silver, King Ranger, Kiba Ranger and Miss America
I like how there is 3 female keys out of 12. The above is this.....

I knew the key next to Miss America was the female Shinken Red!

Gokai Red, Deka Red, Deka Blue, Deka Green, Deka Yellow, Deka Pink, Deka Break, Deka Master, Kabuto Raijer, Kuwagata Raijer, VulEagle, VulShark and VulPanther.
There is only 2 originally female keys here.

GokaiSilver, Go-On Red, MagiGreen, MagiYellow, MagiBlue, MagiPink, MagiShine, MagiMother, Hurricane Yellow, Hurricane Blue, Battle France, Battle Cossack and Battle Kenya.
Four female keys here, I am glad to see MagiMother key. I wonder why they didn't include Wolzard Fire and MagiRed in this one.

GokaiRed, GokaiBlue, GokaiGreen, GokaiSilver, GekiBlue, GekiYellow, GekiViolet, GekiChopper, Mele, Wolzard Fire, BullBlack, Diamond Jack, Heart Queen.
I hate how if you get all the sets, you are stuck with 2 GokaiRed keys and 3 GokaiSilver (I already have 1 Red & 1 Silver). They should had put a Rio key in there. There female keys here, this is the first toy product of Mele herself in Japan, she never had an action figure, only in America.

How Rangers related to Selected Extra Heroes?

Lavender Ranger here, I chose to do only cover a few of the Extra Heroes, not all of them.

SUPER SENTAI
Ninjaman and the Kakuranger
I have no idea how they related because I haven't seen those episodes. Anybody know?

Signalman and the Carranger
This alien dude comes out of nowhere and gives Red Racer a ticket. he was a nuisance but eventually accepted as a friend. He briefly became evil and they had to fix the situation.

VRV Master and the Carranger
He appeared out of nowhere for just one episode or two, they didn't know what to make of him. He didn't really join the team, he just showed up and then disappeared.

Original Bull Black and Gingaman
He had his own agenda and the Gingaman were confused on what was going on, it came to conflict when it came to the Lights of Ginga. Eventually Bull Black did the right thing.

Hyuuga and the Gingaman
They accept them instantly, he still had remorse. He was kinda of a Sixth Ranger but officially counted as an Extra Hero in Gokaiger. Just for the record, he was counted as a Sixth Ranger in Bandai Museum (he was with the other Sixth Rangers) and was also included in a Sixth Ranger Stageshow event years ago (I think it was in 2002 or something).

Doggie and the Dekaranger
He was their boss and they had no choice but to follow him but yeah they accepted him. He is believed to be the Sixth Ranger by fans as he came sixth. As for Swan, they had no problem with her joining, she only transformed in 2 eps.

Miyuki and her kids
She shocks them by transforming in the first episode and then she dies, she always accepted her. But she left the heavy lifting to them. She doesn't really count as a sixth ranger.

Wolzard Fire and Magiranger
He was evil first but not by choice and then when he was good, he protected his children in a new form. Of course they accepted him.

Rio and Mele and Gekiranger
They were evil, then remorse and weren't accepted by Ran and Retsu. They then wanted them to kill them, they did kamikaze attacks saving their friends and dying for a good cause.



POWER RANGERS
Blue Senturion and the Turbo Rangers
Uncharted terrority with extra heroes in Power Rangers realm, he wasn't exactly a Sixth Ranger but he did become evil for a brief time. They accepted his help.

Original Magna Defender and the Galaxy Rangers
He had his own agenda and the Rangers were confused on what was going on, it came to conflict when it came to the Lights of Orion. Eventually Magna Defender did the right thing.

Doggy and Kat and the B-Squad
Doggy was their boss and a rough one at that, but when he became Shadow Ranger, they instantly accept him so much that they depended too much on him. As for Kat, they had no problem with her being a Ranger but she chose to just be one for one episode.

Udonna and the Mystic Rangers
They accepted her as she was their teacher and boss, but she lost her powers, she left the heavy duty to them. She didn't count as the Sixth Ranger.

Koragg and the Mystic Rangers
He was evil first but not by choice and then when he was good, he then got a recolored a form. Of course they accepted him.

Jarrod and Camile and the Jungle Fury Ranger
They were evil, then when Dai Shi was expelled from Jarrod, they reformed and fought for a good cause and were accepted by the others.

How the Sixth Rangers related to the other Power Rangers?

Here I compare how the Sixth Rangers got along with the main team and if they were accepted or not. It's much different to how the Sixth Rangers were accepted in Super Sentai.

Tommy and the Power Rangers
This is my opinion and with the first Sixth Rangers, the first season writers didn't want to much arc-related stuff, just and alone episodes so kids could pick up on what was going on, so having too much conflict would be confusing but once they realized the multi-parters made ratings go up, they made more. So yeah Tommy got along with the gang. And like said by Linkara, just because he lost his powers, it didn't mean he had to disappear from school. And where did he go? We know in Season 2 from between he lost his powers and he became the White Ranger, he was at his Uncle's. Green Ranger's powers were limited.
Evil, instantly joined: 1

Jason and the Zeo Rangers
Trey and the Zeo Rangers
Since he already knew the gang, he instantly joined and they had no conflicts. Jason had to give his powers back to Trey, who was a mysterious helper.
Trey--Mysterious Helper: 1
Joined team instantly: 1

Phantom Ranger and the Turbo Rangers
He never really gave his real name and the gang called him 'Phantom Ranger.' All they knew was that he came from Eltar. He was fairly friendly with them, even as much to help them when they are Space Rangers. Where in Sentai VRV Master is not considered a Ranger and seemingly not going to get a Ranger Key for Gokaiger, he was marketed as a Sixth Ranger and giving the 'Ranger' title in Power Rangers. His powers were limited because of the Power Ruby.
Mysterious helper: 2

Zhane and the Space Rangers
They instantly accepted him as he was Andros' old friend. There was some time that they had to get know him. He got friendly with Ashley, which made Andros jealous. And Andros hearing that Zhane had a thing with Karone, his sister, wasn't exactly stellar. But other than that, he instantly joined with no problems. His powers were limited for a while.
Joined team instantly: 2

Mike and the Galaxy Rangers
Even though confirmed as just an Extra Hero in Super Sentai, Mike was treated as a Sixth Ranger, even given a Morpher, Mike was instantly accepted. Strangely enough, in the two-parter, Damon barely knew him and was shouting out for him. He had to give up his power at the end.
Joined team instantly: 3

Ryan and the Lightspeed Rangers
The Titanium Ranger was the first non-Sentai Ranger, he was evil for a brief time and then accepted, he then went on his own mission to find out how to stop the demons, probably because he had no footage, so lots of money to make new footage. Anyway, he was fully accepted to the team. With maybe only conflict with his dad, as he had a cobra that would kill him as he morphed and didn't tell his dad. He had limited powers because of the cobra curse.
Evil, instantly accepted: 2

Eric and the Time Force Rangers
Antagonistic towards Time Force, he wasn't an evil ranger but he didn't want to join the team. He was looking out for himself. Well, if the four Rangers joined the Silver guardians, he would've be okay with being their leader then. Even though Wes liked him, he didn't, not until the end where they became a duo. His powers weren't limited like past Rangers, it was more of a moral and dramatic choices that led to him not being in every single episode since his debut or be part of the team.
Antagonistically, didn't want to join: 1

Merrick and the Wild Force Rangers
He was part of the original team and was cursed to be Zenaku. When the current Rangers saved him, he became Lunar Wolf Rangers but felt bad about all he did so he didn't want to join the team. He later ended up wandering the Earth with Zenaku of all people. His powers weren't limited like past Rangers, it was more of a moral and dramatic choices that led to him not being in every single episode since his debut or be part of the team.
Lone wolf: 1

Thunder Rangers and Wind Rangers
Instead of having the Goraijer's backstory, they were duped into being 'evil,' and were told the Sensei killed their parents but it was Lothor. Once this was cleared up, they instantly joined the team and almost had zero conflict, save for one episode with Shane.
Evil, then joined eventually: 3

Cam and the Ninja Storm Rangers
Unlike Shurikenger who was a mysterious helper, Cam was already part of the team. His powers weren't limited like Rangers before Time Force. They did conflict with Cyber Cam.
Joined team instantly: 4

Trent and the Dino Rangers
Even though there was just four Dino Rangers and Triassic is not counted as a sixth ranger but an upgrade, AbareKiller is consider a Sixth Ranger by Gokaiger. Trent was under evil control and was evil against the Rangers, then cured and instantly joined the team, but that didn't mean there still wasn't conflicts. He kept secrets from them. And then there was the evil clone, made to excuse the footage of AbareKiller still being antagonistic against them.
Evil, then joined instantly: 4

Sam and SPD
When Sam came in as Omega Ranger, he came with an attitude that future stuff was better. Fans found him annoying.
Joined team instantly but some head butts: 1

Daggeron and Mystic Rangers
Xanderis a bit jealous and upset at Daggeron but later turns around. Nick butts heads with Daggeron occasionally (even to the point that Snow Prince downgraded Daggeron and had him follow Nick.
Joined team instantly but some head butts: 2

Tyzonn and the OO Rangers
Mac instantly likes Tyzonn. Tyzonn doesn't want to join the team because of guilt of loosing friends in a team before. But once he gets the powers, he does join the team and with zero conflict, the only conflict he had with Will was that he followed him around, copying him.
Joined team eventually: 5

RJ and the Jungle Fury Rangers
They all knew RJ before as he was the teacher but he did butt heads with Casey when he became a Ranger because Casey felt like he was stepping into the leader role.
Joined team instantly but some head butts: 3

Dominick and the Jungle Fury Rangers
He wanted to be accepted but wasn't for his laziness and arrogance, it took Casey to kind of accept him.
Wasn't accepted instantly: 1

Spirit Rangers and Jungle Fury Rangers
Evil, but eventually joined, sort of: 5

Ziggy and Dillon and RPM Rangers
Unlike Go-Onger, there was mass amounts of conflict with Ziggy and Dillon and the others. Dillon conflicted with everyone. Nobody wanted Ziggy. But we all know how that turned out.

Twins and RPM Rangers
Instantly joined, the main 5 didn't get them but they were part of the team.
Joined team instantly: 6

Antonio and Samurai Rangers
He wanted to join but wasn't accept by the Samurai Rangers. He was quickly accepted by three of them but not much by Kevin and Jii. Jayden and Jii later accepted him but it took an episode for Kevin to accept him.
Wasn't accepted instantly: 2

Joined team instantly: 6
Wasn't accepted instantly: 2
Evil, but eventually joined: 5
Joined team instantly but some head butts: 3
Antagonistically, didn't want to join: 1
Lone wolf: 1
Mysterious helper: 2
