Right side of Accellular

Back of Accellular

Measurements:
Accellular is 2.2 inches wide
In closed mode it's 4.6 inches long
In opened mode it's 7.5 inches long

Accellular has 1 LED light

1 Black Light which stays on for 6 seconds unless you keep pushing the black light button on the keypad. I can see the black light (In a room with no lights) 3 feet away on a wall so the black light is somewhat strong.

The Keypad #'s Mean
#1 is Dump
#2 is Formula
#3 is Gyro
#4 is Dozer
#5 is Marine
#6 is Drill
#7 is Shovel
#8 is Mixer
#9 is Crane
#0 is ? (that's what it says)
Combine is the robot symbol button
Launch is the GO button
The black button in the middle is Change
The button left to that is the Bouken chip light
The button right the the change button is ring
The Boukenger compass symbol is a wheel called Go Go Turbine

Now when you're messing around with the mecha codes, it's like the MagiPhone spells except not all codes work. When codes do not work and error sound will come up. When codes are typed in, the narrating voice from the show will say each #'s meaning.

So the codes are:
for DaiBouken it's Combine +1+2+3+4+5+Go Go Turbine
for any mecha vehicle it's Launch+O+9+Go GO Turbine
for the henshin it's Change+Go GO Turbine

Codes that I messed with that worked:
Combine+7+8+9+Go Go Turbine
Combine+1+2+3+Go Go Turbine
Combine+1+2+3+4+5+6+7+8+9+0+GoGoTurbine (Ultimate Formation

So when you type in say the Daibouken code. The Accellular will say Gattai, Dump, Formula, Gyro, Dozer, Marine. You spin Go Go Turbine and the voice will yell Bouken Formation.

Bouken Chips
Now I was excited about the Bouken Chips being used with the black light on the Accellular not only a cool idea but I thought they would be plastic not thin cardboard. So I put the black light over it to find no real messages but hand symbols. There are only 2 sets of 3 that come with it, but it's 2 of the same set.

Accellular I give (Out of 1-10) a 7 because it is a good henshin device but the only real activity is the mecha codes and those are even limited. I think people may be dissapointed with this because like I said there is no activity on it like the MagiPhone. I'll most likely be updating this thing with more pictures later today. Any questions I would be happy to answer.


Accellular Holder

The package is 10.5in in height and is 6in across the front of package.

Accellular Holder comes with:
1 Accellular holder
1 belt
1 instruction guide

Size:
5 inches long
2.5 inches wide
the belt is 10 inches long

The Accellular Holder is to hold the Accellular either on your arm or you cliping the belt clip on a belt loop. It also holds Bouken Chips which so far it can hold 6, I don't know the limit but since they are thin cardboard you can fit alot most likely. The belt (is so you can wear the holder on your arm) is 10 inches long, it does not fit my arm. I don't think it would fit most adults.

I think for anybody who collects Sentai merchandise every year you should get this. You don't really need it but it is a nice addition to the Accellular.

GouGou Changer has 3 modes:

Mobile Mode

Transformation mode

Command Mode

Diagram
1-The blue button opens the cover of the GouGou Changer to reveal the bezel.
2.The bezel
3.Transformation Button
4.LED lighting system
5.Combine button
6.Launch button

The reason for the diagram is instead of saying "see that blue button on the right" and maybe being misunderstood. I decided people could look at the diagram and see what I'm talking about later in the review.

Push the blue button on the righthand side to open the cover for it to be in Command Mode.

Henshin Mode

If the dial is pushed, the henshin sound emits and the digital display lights up. I'm sure most of you have seen the videos out of this lighting effect that Bandai Japan did, which is very cool.

Transformatin Sound
http://www.yousendit.com/transfer.php?action=download&ufid=F9CB496215BF8DD0

Launch Shift

Hit the Launch button and the "Hasshin Shift On" sounds. The bezel selector dial is to be rotated to a number that corresponds with a gogo vehicle, numbers 1 to 13. The bezel can turn either right or left. If the bezel is turned to any of Bouken Silver's vehicles, they have an extra sound effect which is sirens. The only vehicles you can bring to formation are Bouken Silver's. The other Boukenger gogo vehicles are "power on."

Examples.
Go + 11 = "Hasshin Shift on! Fire! Fire! Go, GO!"

Go + 12 = "Hasshin Shift on! Aider! Go, GO!"

Go + 13 = "Hasshin Shift on! Police! Go, GO!"

Go + 1 = "Hasshin Shift on! Dump! Go, GO!"

Go + 2 = "Hasshin Shift on! Formula! Go, GO!"

Go + 3 = Gyro

Go + 4 = Dozer

Go + 5 = Marine

Go + 6 = Drill

Go + 7 = Shovel

Go + 8 = Mixer

Go + 9 = Crane

Go + 10 = Jet

Police Sound
http://www.yousendit.com/transfer.php?action=download&ufid=71BABE7C47ED20DA

Gattai Shift

If the combine button is pushed, the "Gattai Shift on!" voice calls, with the standby sound emitting. Turning the bezel to the numbers for Fire, Aider and Police, it sounds "Siren Formation!" If the bezel is turned to the other numbers, the sound for the vehicles are "Power on!" sounds.

Other little facts about the GouGou Changer
1. It does not have a call or ring sound on it.
2.The blue button has a little Boukenger symbol on it.
3.If you leave it on for more than a minute, it starts to beep about every 20-30 seconds.
4. A decal was used for the screen on the transformation button.

GouGou Changer with Accellular

My opinions: I think they should have kept the batteries and sound inside the changer. Because with or without the batteries, the one side of the changer weighs a lot. You have to strap the wristband really tight for the whole changer not to move around on your wrist and it begins to weigh your wrist down if you wear it for long periods of time.

Out of a (1-10), I give this a 6. Only because of the design and lighting effects. The changer is very heavy. It moves around your wrist if you don't strap the wristband tight enough. It does not have a lot of features to mess around with like the Accellular. I'm kind of dissapointed with this changer. Any questions feel free to ask. The sound clips are wma files.

Review: Power Rangers: Operation Overdrive Overdrive Tracker (no pics yet)

Hey guys, I just got my Overdrive Tracker ( Boukenger's Accelular) today, and I havent seen a review of it here (might have skimmed over it ^^; ) so I tought I should write one.

Now I don't a camera, and my power cable to my scanner is missing, so I can't get pictures of it right now.

I don't own a Accelular either so I can only compare on what I've seen in pictures and video reviews.

Also, this is my first ever review, so please forgive me if it's too hard to read. ^_^;

What comes with the phone:
1-Overdrive Tracker
5- "Scan Cards"
1-Instructions

Now Here's the button's on the Overdrive Tracker:
1."OFF/TRY ME/ON" Switch
2."Decoder" Button
3."Morph" Button
4."Call" Button
5.1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, and 0 Buttons
6."MegaZord" Button
7."GO!" Button
8."Turbo Morph Wheel" Wheel

Now the phone itself looks incredibly similar, and from what I can tell, the size hasn't changed much either. The back of the phone doesn't have the Camera looking piece either, just plain silver plastic. It's very very detailed and the sounds are pretty good, but not very loud (that just might be because mine still has the store "Try me" batteries still in.).

And the blacklight is VERY bright, enough to blind me for a few seconds XP.

The top screen looks exactly like the Accelluars but instead saying, "MORPH", "VEHICLE", and "MEGAZORD". The directions underneath "MORPH" are,(pictures of course)"Morph Button+Tubro Wheel". The "VEHICLE" directions are "GO! Button". And the "MEGAZORD" intstuctions are, " Megazord button+1+2+3+4+5+Turbo Whell".


Now here's what all of those buttons do:
1.When you trun on the phone you'll hear two quick beeps and then the sound of clicking, like the phone's opening.

2.When you press the Decoder button you'll hear the Red Ranger (I guess) say ," Decoder Ready!" then the same noise the Accelular makes when the black light comes on, and the blacklight stays on for about 5 seconds. Then fades out on the 5th second.

3. The fun part, when you press the button with the,...Sun? Explosion? I don't know, let's just call it the Morph button ^_^. When you press it, you'll hear a car turnover and the reving up noise, then you run the phone down your arm, spinning the "Turbo Morph Wheel" and completing the Henshin with all the same sounds.

4.When you press the Call button, you'll hear a kind of Ringing noise three times. You hear the same noise if you leave the phone alone for about a minute. By pressing any buutton (minus the Wheel) the ringing will stop.

5. Now here's the first big let down, when you press the Number Buttons, you just get two generic beeping noises ( 1, 3, 5, 7, and 9 have a low beeping noise and 2, 4, 6, 8, and 0 have a higher beeping noise). There's no voice at all announcing which vehicles you've chosen.

6. When you press the MegaZord button, you'll hear the same voice say," Megazord Action!" followed by the same noise you hear on the Accelular. Then by pressing 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 and then spin the wheel, you'll hear the Megazord being formed. Which is pretty awesome and fun to do, even if it doesn't say the names of the vehicles. But the other big let down is that the main Megazord code is the ONLY one! By pressing anyother combination of numbers, even 1-5 out of order, you'll get the turbine spinning noise, and then a error alram noise three times. But all in all, doing the Megazord code is still pretty fun.

7. And now the last big let down, when you push the "GO!" Button all you'll hear is the same voice saying "Vehicle Ready!"

...

And that's it. No matter how many buttons you push and wheels you spin all you'll hear is "Vehicle Ready!". There's not even a sound after that! All it is is the Red Ranger saying "Vehicle Ready!"...sucks really.

8.The Wheel is the same as the Accelular to my knowledge, makes a nice sound when spun too.

Overall, it's a nice Morpher, it's of course a big second to the Accelular, but one of the better morphers to come over to the US.

Another bad thing is the phone itself has a lot of wear and tear on it,...before I even opened it, a lot of little random blots of plastic, and a really bad scratch on the left side.

Oh almost forgot, the five "Scan Cards" that come with the Overdrive Tracker are I think the same as the Accelular's Chips in size and material, made of very shiny smooth plastic feeling posterboard like cardboard. And the images on each are:
Red Ranger
Black Ranger
Blue Ranger
A Wheel with PR in the center
Just the words "OVERDRIVE ACCELARATE!" around the edges of the Card.

And the packaging is really nice, not a box like the Accelular but the packaging is like what the action figures come in, with a nice Red Ranger helmet at the top with plastic coming off to make it look 3-D. and the phone in it's Opened Postion and on the Try Me setting meaning you just push the Morph button and the blacklight comes on and a random sound will play. But in the light of the blacklight are the three Scan Cards displaying the three Male Rangers on a little turning wheel. And on the back of the Packaging is a code you can "Scan" with the Phone which you can apperently use on the Bandai website, but it's apperently not up yet.




So there you have it. I personally love the phone, but then again, this is the first morpher I've bought since I think Time Force ^_^;. But it's great fun to mess with.

So Overall I give it a:
8 out of 10.




Well, that's it, Ill try and get pictures and mabye even a video review as soon as I can.



So? What do you guys think? Good enough? ^_^
