• SIC Fuuto-Kun. Fear if it should ever be released!
• Paladin reviews Ninja Storm’s Storm Power Megazord

This week,

• Several Japanese toys went to preorders, and if you were awake in the middle of the night you might have caught them for the two minutes they were available!
• A trademark application has been filed by a Saban holding, relating to TV shows for “Power Rider”. Cue baseless fandom speculation.
