TAN Ep 22: We Didn't Do It?!

Today on TAN it's a possible repeat as we cover Gokaiger vs Gavan along with trying to cover Toy News. That's all followed up by a screwed up segment by Projekt. So let's see if we're able to handle ourselves in this almost uncontrollable episode! Today's cast: Wheelchair21, Projektrdm, Darkon633, and the return of MetalSymphonyTYPE-R!

A closer look at NYCC Bluefin/ Bandai Booth

At New York Comic Con Bandai and Bluefin has displayed a bunch of new items and a closer look at the Megaforce toys. 

First Bandai has finally announced SH Figuarts MMPR Red/ Tyrannoranger from Zyuranger.  The original Mighty Morphin Rangers were a very anticipated team to made into Figuarts form and although only MMPR Red has been announced we should expect the other team members to follow soon. 

We also got a surprising announcement for the SRC Operation Overdrive Drive Max Megazord/ Daibouken from Boukenger.  I wasn't expecting to see this SRC annouced because it looked like Bandai was mostly focusing on merchandising MMPR related products due it being the 20th of Power Rangers so its nice that they shown this.

Also announced was SH Monsterarts King Kong.  This version is based on Peter Jackson Version of King Kong so its great to see that people can have one to go alongside their Monsterarts Godzilla.

Lastly we got another look at the Megaforce toys that were shown at Power Morphicon earlier this year.
Unfortunately the Deluxe Megazords dont look as good as it did at the other convention but they still look decent.  What is strange though is that the Skyic Header bike has the helmet for "Hyper Gosei Great" so its possible that Datas has been scrapped out of the Megaforce footage but we will need to wait and see.  Bandai also displayed the new Power Rangers TCG.  Although nothing was announced about them besides that are going to be released via boosters and in starter decks.  Images given to me from from WereWolfFinder from source Tokunation.

Tamashii Features Vol 3. News Part 4: Monsterarts & Ultra-Acts

Well we got some more promotions for the SH MonsterArts, along with another glimse of Ghidorah. In the picture seen above, we also have a display of Fire Rodan and Godzilla using his Red Spiral Atomic Blast. While MechaGodzilla and Moguera just hang about trying to act cool. Then we got a new Kaiju for the Ultra-Act line Red King, a very infamousily known kaiju from the series along with Ultraman Max.

S.H. MonsterArts Fire Rodan

Recently announced by Tamashii, the next MonsterArts to be released would be Fire Rodan! Fire Rodan debut in Godzilla vs MechaGodzilla II, making it the fourth character/vehicle MonsterArt to be released based on the movie. The figure is set to be released with two Tamashii Stages, a Uranium heat beam effect part, Godzilla's Red Spiral Atomic Blast, and a Damaged MechaG II head to make up for it's small size. The Red Spiral Atomic Blast for Godzilla is seemingly a more accurate design of the blast that original came in the G-Force Exclusive Set back last December. While the Damaged MechaGodzilla II head is a replacement for the main, as Rodan had blinded the mecha-monster during their battle in the movie. All these extra accessories and attachments are amazing for any Godzilla collector, along with forcing you buy another MonsterArt or two; pending on if you missed the original release of Godzilla and just skip MechaGodzilla due design or price!

S.H. Monsterarts Baby/Little Godzilla

Recently on the net we finally get to see what comes with Monsterarts Baby/Little Godzilla. We knew he was coming with Space Godzilla Crystals from a previous announcement but this time we get to see how they look like. I guess if I do eventually get a Godzilla I would want this guy too but seeing as Baby Godzilla is a Tamashii Web Exclusive it makes the chance low.
