Bandai of America Teases SDCC 2015 Exclusives - Internet figures them out
 

lol

Thanks to Trekkieb47 for the photo edits revealing the exclusives and Rangerboard for the custom graphic that Bandai of America originally posted on Instagram!

Hey man everybody would have kept thinking that was a Dino Charger and not Doraemon if not for me! :lol

Yes - thanks for ruining what was originally a sliver of hope for us all. :p

Ok movie yea but the rest is why. SDCC exclusive are getting boring. It like meh. I don't like it that JDF is always there to get what he wants. I'm sorry but I want more Jason stuff or other season stuff. Not MMPR crap sorry but I had to say it.

Always happy to ruin people's dreams. I mean help out.

Hey man, don't be surprised,

ITS MY CALLING.

So...what are the items?

Bandai clearly read the Doraemon magazine feature I wrote last month and got inspired :p

Seriously though, nice to see him getting some more Western exposure. It's long overdue.

As for the Power Rangers stuff....eh. It's just as underwhelming as it is every year.

Alright, so I see we're getting another blinged-out Legacy weapon (Saba), but the other two... One on the far left is a Figuart or ZERO, maybe? Bottom one has me scratching my head.

Figuarts would be Tamashii Nations exclusives, this is strictly BOA stuff I believe.

Well so much for that idea.

I'm going to call it in the hope it some how makes it true, Kamen Rider, one those items is either a translated Driver or a gimick figure. Maybe by the power of randomly guessing s*** that just might come ture

Unless they start using the thunderbolt logo for Kamen Rider, not likely.

So what special color are they going to make Saba be?

Seeing as the Dragon Dagger was gold last year, and BOA has little to no creativity when it comes to exclusives, I'd say gold is the fairly obvious choice.

Really my only reaction:

"STOP FOCUSING ON ONE CHARACTER FROM ONE SERIES OVER 20 YEARS AGO!"

And the lack of creativity expected with probably just gold plating everything again. YAWN.

Except... Except the Doraemon part. Yeah, I can totally see his outline in that cardback. That would be out of left field from my perspective and actually a unique thing to introduce at SDCC for them. I'm not particularly a fan, but with as old as it is, I'm sure there's tons out there who would have an interest in this. So it would still be very cool.

Oh. Look. Another round of Tommy Exclusives. I'm shocked. Just shocked.

I am sick of all the tommy focus. We get it. He was popular. 20 years ago. The SM final volume description was WAY too far but having every exclusive just be special versions of stuff he used or suits he wore? Ugh....

From what I can tell, that looks like some Doraemon rangerkeys. I don't collect PR anymore but I'm all types of in.

Is Bluefin going to have any exclusives for SDCC?

My perdictions

-A GOLD Legacy Rankal (kickback) Sword
-A set of Toku Keys: Toku Rankal, Toku Tom, Toku DenO, And three JDFs
-Another Tokyo Vinyl Pop figure, most likely Tom wearing nothing but the Red Super Megaforce helmut and matching boxer short
-A GGGGRRRRREEEENNNNNN DenO figure.

I kinda like the sound of exclusives that are of appeal mostly to niche collectors instead of a very limited release of something that everyone wants <_<

Bluefin does have exclusives coming for SDCC 2015 but at this time we cannot reveal whether or not they have anything Power Rangers/Super Sentai/Kamen Rider related. You'll have to follow them on Twitter and on Facebook to find out.

Well the Dino Charge morpher did had a SDCC sound inside of it. I think we will get a SDCC exclusive dino batteries.

It could be for 2016 too. I don't see any thing for this year.

I just saw a 2015 sdcc exclusive on eBay that's a translucent mmpr red ranger so maybe not totally white ranger themed. Search sdcc 2015 and find out yourself.

I would love to see Bandai make Legacy Wild Force toys in the future.

http://news.toyark.com/2015/06/08/po...lusives-161426 And it appears that the black/gold legacy megazord will avaiable for sale at the Tru/entertainment earth booth. So I don't know if that counts as a sdcc exclusive.

I wish they would mix it up and start releasing things like Legacy versions of the Thunderzords, Ninjazords, Shogunzords, better versions of the Ranger figures, etc. There's more to PR than just Jason David Frank's contributions.

That is a Loyal Subjects exclusive though. Nothing to do with Bandai of America.

I guess what's next legacy falcon zord?

I think next year will be a big year for more non-JDF Legacy stuff. I think we'll likely see Legacy versions of the Thunder Megazord, the blade blaster, and maybe even a movie morpher with the other five ninja coins.
I would be surprised if that was one of the next Legacy zords they do. I definitely see them eventually doing it, but not till after they do the Thunder Megazord.

I think thunder megazord would be really hard to put the zord builder ports in cause it focuses entirely on red dragon zord. Since the rest of the zord said are just armor for him. To have him combine with legacy tigerzord you would have to figure out a way for the arms to hide in the lions legs and still have that zord builder port to connect the arms to tmegazord and to make it connect with tigerzords shoulders. Next would be those legs, they have to mutilate that red dragonzord to make it work. Not saying I wouldn't buy legacy thunder megazord(in fact I would in a heartbeat) I'm just alittle worried of how they are going to pull that off.

I honestly don't think it'll be a huge issue for them. They're proving that they can engineer some great zords, so as long as they don't rush the design, or make any hasty decisions, a Legacy Thunder Megazord should turn out well. All they really need to worry about is working in the ports for the Tigerzord without them getting in the way of the base combination.

I'm going to guess and say that the Red Dragon's legs will be detachable at the knees.
