Calling All Female Power Ranger Fans
So everyone who reads the blog and listen to the podcast knows I'm a Power Ranger Fan. Well SDCC is going on so I decided to check my favorite site for Power Ranger news Tokunation.com. And boy was I please with the Gallery of images from SDCC. They had a wonderful section From Bandai of America, the current crafter of US power Ranger toys. As I scrolled through the image look at the money i'm about to spend they showed off some of the Coming Dino Charge figures. I look in awe of sneak peak of this winter/next spring's figures until i found this image
