Power Rangers Samurai Toy thread - "Go Go Samurai!"

Probably the Shogun Ranger which we got the action figure for so early. The figure *does* have the Shogun Buckle, so it only makes sense at this point.

Considering that multiple BoA reps have confirmed that it will appear in the show and there's a photo of the actual suit on the box, I'd say that's pretty likely.

Shogun Belt has been sighted at 2 Targets so far. Plays the theme song when you push a button. I'm gonna keep an eye out for it.

After watching this demo video for the Shogun Buckle, the Try me sound is a great rendition of "Go Go Power Rangers".

So far, 2 Samurai toys have had awesome songs added in. The Mega Blade's Japanese Samurai tune, and now Go Go Power Rangers for the Shogun Buckle.

Probably because they can afford to do a little more with their original ones, whereas the Japanese ones they have to dumb down because they're very complicated and expensive, meaning American consumers won't buy them. American parents can be very frugal when it comes to certain items they'll get for their kids. Notice that the Mega Blade has no lights and no actual mechanisms. It's actually a very simple design, but what makes up for it is the playability in its simple design and the sheer awesome size of the toy. The Shogun Buckle looks to be no different, and since it's a smaller item with probably less sounds, they could afford to put lights in it.

So, new rumors on 2012 Samurai Toys:

DX Bullzooka - Exactly what it sounds like, will combine with the Mega Blade to form the "Shogun Spear".

ScropionZord with Decker - No idea...

Gigazord Giftset - Comes with Samurai Megazord, Claw, Bull, Beetle, Swordfish, Octo and Tiger Zords. They will be "Different" from their individual releases somehow.

In that case, why not just repackage the Bandai Japan Shinkenger mecha and sell the set at "premium" price of $300?
