Picked this up for my collection today.
 
Chauncey congrata on buying MMPR Season 3 DVD. Enjoy the power of Ninjor! :D

So Power Rangers Megaforce has finished its airing in France and clips and screen caps are everywhere. Megaforce is building up a good set up for Super Megaforce.

I haven't had a chance to catch up on Kyoryuger and Gaim (I'm a episode behind) but by the end of the week I'll be all caught up!

Rumor has it that Torin will be Kyoryu Silver. I wonder if its true.

Kamen Rider Dragon Knight better than Kamen Rider Ryuki?! Blasphemy! Lol jk.
Well finally somebody other than likes Power Rangers Turbo!
You say favorite Super Sentai but only list PR seasons. What is your favorite Super Sentai seasons?
 
Trains. Trains. Seriously?

There are more info :

The 38th season of Super Sentai, Ressha Sentai Tokkyuger, begins on February 16, 2014. With trains as their motif, this team “drawn from imagination” must protect the “Rainbow Line” from the evil “Shadow”!

The name “Ressha” means train, but the kanji “re” in the pronunciation, which normally means “line” as in train line, has been replaced with a different kanji with the same sound that actually means “violent/extreme/fierce/intense”. The Tokkyugers are nearly yelling TRAINS!!! at us with this playful twist in their name.

The five-member team (red, blue, yellow, green, pink) are named for their numbers instead of their colors this time around: Tokkyu Ichigo, Tokkyu Niigo, Tokyuu Sango, Tokkyu Yongo, Tokkyu Gogo, and use their arm bracers, Tokkyuchangers, in combination with their Resshas, to transform.

Although the entire phrasing is not quite legible, the Tokkyuchanger will have a voice like that of a train announcer, stating something similar to “Transformation in progress, please step away from the transforming person”, a play on the “please stand clear of the closing doors” of a real train announcement. There are also specific sounds for color-change transformations.

 
Where was this when I was a kid?!
I hate to sound boring, but I was fascinated by trains (I still am a little).

I'm not sure whether to ask this, but I've heard that Disney took over Power Rangers in the west... is it true?

It was.....until 2011, when they sold it back to Saban, who proceeded to make two pretty bad seasons.

I've seen one episode of the series they're showing in the UK... I thought it was pretty rubbish/tame.
Thanks for clarifying that ^^
 
Some pictures for the Kyoryuger, Go-Busters Movie team up! Credit to cosmo773 of Rangerboard for the photos.






Remember Goldar from Mighty Morphin Power Rangers folks? Well that golden winged warrior from the third picture is him in his new form. Granted his Super Sentai counterpart is totally different from MMPR's Goldar but still ya get the point.
