Mokong Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 (edited) So went over the footage I got yesterday when unboxing the Legacy Power Morpher, didn't turn out as bad as I thought, and my son added a bit of extra awesome to video So here is my unboxing vid of the morpher Also the other day I found all of teh original Japanese Sentai, MMPR is based on, Zyuranger on Youtube, and been watching eps of that over last 3 days. Pretty awesome, very different tone to Power Rangers, bit darker, doesn't really feel like a "kids" show, more a Teen show. There was a kid in one ep trapped under rubble with blood all over his face, wouldn't see that in a PR show. The differences are pretty cool too; the back story to where the Zyurangers came from. DragonRanger especially. And the Zords too, the way the Megazord... or DaiZyuJin as he called in this, is actually a sentient God Really enjoying it but finding it a bit weird sometimes when I recognise some of the scenes and remember it from seeing it in MMPR Or seeing some parts that I don't recognise and likely wasn't used in MMPR. Not watching all eps though. Just skipping through it to find the "main" eps. Using Wiki and seeing episode titles helps. Up to ep37 of 50 now The guy who has this uploaded has a bunch of other Sentai shows organised into playlists too, I might just start watching those too, haha. Back on the PR front, Oisín (and me) recently finished watching Power Rangers RPM and that was actually really good. Very different feel, like Zyuranger, it has a darker tone and feels more like a Teens show, than a kids show. Rangers were all pretty cool too esepcially Black and Green. And the actors were pretty decent too and made all the rangers very likeable and interesting. We started on Power Rangers Samurai last week and it's gone back to a more "Kid show" feel and the actors certainly took a dive, with the exception of Green and Gold all the Samurai rangers are just planks, especially Red and Blue. Those two are trees more than they are planks BUT one awesome thing about Samurai is the costumes, not so much the "main" ranger suits but their "Megamode" suits when they call on their zords...for some reason their suits change when they go inside the zords The best looking one has to be the Gold Ranger They should use those suits as the "normal" suits too, the armour looks so sweet.

Mokong Posted September 28, 2013 Share Posted September 28, 2013 (edited) Just finished watching the 50th and final episode of Kyouryuu Sentai Zyuranger (note: as mentioned before tried to skip the filler eps trying to watch only "story important" eps so prolly only watched about 20-25 of the 50 eps) Really enjoyed it. Liked the differing story and origins from MMPR as I mentioned before. And the overal differing tone of the show too. Does make me want to look up other Sentai shows to see the differences between them and their Power Rangers counterparts I think one of teh major differences being that the Guardian Beasts (zords) weren't just machines but actually alive and formed a God, DaiZyuJin, (in "Megazord" form) was great and that DaiZyuJin actually talked with the Zyurangers was cool. Though I guess with MMPR going for more a "tech" theme with Zordon, Alpha and the Command Centre they couldn't really then give the Megazord it's own voice and character as everything else had the zords set up to be just machines and not mystic creatures. DragonRanger dying was alot sadder than I expected too even though I knew it was coming but that whole overal storyarch with the green candle here I felt worked better than in MMPR. Obviously cause alot more was at stake here. In MMPR it just drained Tommys powers here it was a countdown to Burai's death that could not be stopped I really liked how after Burai's death then Dragon Caeser (Dragonzord) had an ep where it was somehow able to show emotion and saddness at the loss of Burai. And I really liked the backstory revelation on Bandora (Rita) that came about in the final few eps and actually felt a bit sorry for her at the end too after the final fight.... untill she started singing again....haha, the first time I watched an ep where Bandora broke out in song I was like WTF? That is definately one part I'm so glad didn't make the transition into MMPR haha Also I now can't get the theme song out of my head....and oddly when I hear it, it also makes me think of Dragonball Z Audio Edited September 28, 2013 by Mokong Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mokong Posted October 4, 2013 Share Posted October 4, 2013 OMG, those look awesome and in great condition too. The Dragonzord, Red Dragon Thunderzord and Tigerzord especially look awesome. I'm also finding myself tempted to now want to buy the Legacy Megazord, haha. Are they gonna release a Legacy Dragonzord later? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm also finding myself tempted to now want to buy the Legacy Megazord, haha. Are they gonna release a Legacy Dragonzord later? The Tigerzord and Dragonzord have battery operated sounds, which (and i can quote) still have batteries in which work. I haven't switched them on in years, but they work still. The Shogunzord were, and still are in the original box. The others, the boxes got damaged. I had to save these a few years ago, parents were looking at selling them at a car boot sale. They've been in box in the attic for many years, some of them are nearly 20 years old. And work as good as they did then. I was at one point considering getting the rest of the Thunderzords to make a complete Thundermegazord and/or Mega Tigerzord. The funny thing is, they never sold the Thunderzords as a complete unit Edited October 4, 2013 by Jimbob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S.C.G Posted October 15, 2013 Share Posted October 15, 2013 Also did anyone have any idea there was a Power Rangers FMV game on the Sega CD?!!!! http://www.twitch.tv/destructoid/c/3064129 Bit like dragons lair! Yep, I actually own the game! Only ever just the disc unfortunately but I did a quick search on eBay and its actually become rather rare over the years - even just the disc - as there was one copy of it that sold complete and sealed for around £90 so I would imagine that even just the disc is quite valuable. Of course I originally had it as a kid so had no idea but its been sitting inside the case of my copy of Silpheed on the Mega CD in pretty good condition. As you can see from the brief snippet in this video though, the game itself is far from actually being any good, but I still amazingly managed to have fun with it back in the day. : peace: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retro_Link Posted October 16, 2013 Share Posted October 16, 2013 Was this the first QTE game? ;p I had the Power Rangers game on the Gameboy. Was a pretty hard game I think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S.C.G Posted October 16, 2013 Share Posted October 16, 2013 The mega CD version was definitely challenging, can't remember if I even finished it back in the day... who would have thought that pressing buttons in time could actually be challenging? :p Hmm... I could actually play it again... right now, I have my faithful Sega Multi-Mega sitting on my desk, but I don't know... I think this game is one of those things best left in the past.

Naturally if you buy one though, Power Rangers probably won't be the first game that you'd want to play on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happenstance Posted October 16, 2013 Share Posted October 16, 2013 I loved that Mega Drive Power Rangers movie game when I had it. One of the many games I regret selling years ago now.

Mokong Posted October 18, 2013 Share Posted October 18, 2013 (edited) Really enjoyed watching these videos of Jason David Frank's (Tommy Oliver aka Green/White/Red Zeo/Red Turbo/Black Dino Thunder Ranger) and Jason Narvy's (Skull) panel from New York Comic Con. Seems like a good laugh (just ignore the annoying guy in white who seems to think he's the only one there and wants to asks all the questions:heh:) JDF and Narvy look like they'd be awesome to hang out haha Edited October 18, 2013 by Mokong Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
