Miss America Ranger Key highly sought

When I first heard the Miss America key was coming out with Gasphon Series 4, I thought it was silly. I'm personally not crazy about the suits of Battle Fever J but once I saw the key, I found it fascinaitng as they actually sculpted her hair and all unique it looks. But it actually turns out to be a rare key because they only sell it with the whole set. It is now highly sought. It is not Marvel related, as Marvel comics had some hand in her creation but because very little are being made. A bid online (Yahoo! Japan) is currently going for 910 yen (12 bidders so far), that is about $11.73 in American and Canadian currency and 7.40 pounds (UK). It ends on the 15th of September in Japan. Now why would anyone want a key with a horrid human face and peach 'skin' legs? Because of its cheesy-ness and also, there is not much Pink keys right now, soon but maybe not soon enough.

Chichoc of Rangerboard says:

"So the Gaoranger set costs 1,7K Yen (12 keys) without the "rare key", in this case Miss America, the complete set costs 3,1K (13 keys). I was willing to buy the Gaoranger set, but I also wanted MissAmerica and it bothers me to pay almost double for one single key..."

I usually get a key for 200 to 400 yen and I bid with Celga, they do the bid with Japan and with shipping and their fees, for about one key it adds up to around (more or less) 13 bucks (I say more or less because it is better to ship a bunch of things at once and I haven't asked to ship just yet). So if tried bidding for this one, it might cost me 22 bucks.

Explaining Abare Pink and Pigs

There seems to be some confusion over Emri as AbarePink in Abaranger. As we all know, she was an ally and wanted to be a Abaranger very badly. So as a fashion design student, she made her own outfit.

In an episode before, I forgot which one, she had something that made wishes. She was going to make a wish. Abaranger had these bumpers/eye catchers before commercials with the Bakuryuu (zords) talking and asking questions. And Ptera asked if she was really going to become AbarePink. Here is the photo above.

But she mispronounced 'Pink' in English and said 'Pig' in English and became a pig. Hence she used the pig for her AbarePink outfit. I hope that clarified stuff. It had no dino relation, it is just Japanese pronunciation of Pink and Pig sound alike to them. For most English-speaking people, they don't sound alike.

Abare Pink Key?! Gokaiger Ep 29 and 30 Preview

Ahim episode, she does costume changes and fights the monster, who takes love into his staff she smashes the staff. The monster can shrink and messed up the insides of GokaiOh and Gyoruujin. They meet up with Emri and Yukito. Emri gives Ahim a AbarePink key but everyone is shocked to find out it is only her fan outfit (power of the pig). Even the monster laughs at her. Ahim is ashamed of the outfit. She chooses to opt out of the battle and the others fight as the five Abaranger. The monster goes big and the Gokaiger combine mecha to be GojyuGokaiOh.
