Shogun/Mega Ranger modes - USA exclusive?
 

Were the Mega and Shogun ranger modes exclusive to the US Power Rangers Samurai show, or did they show up in Shinkenger? They look bad ass.

us exclusive

Made to sell toys. They're like permanent Battlizers.

Yeah, the only things that showed up in Shinkenger were the Super coats, and the Shark sword (Hyper Shinken Red).

Yes, for the 100th time, they are US exclusives. Shogun is the the Battlizer and Mega Mode was Bandai's redesign before there was going to be a show (You know, when PR was dead). They then forced said mode into the show because the toys were already made.

PS Mega Mode does look cool...as toys. In the show, they look like bed comforters. Shogun is one of the best Battlizers in years. Shame it's limited to the flipping cockpit.

well now I wouldn't say that....

I don't watch PR Samurai guys, hence the question, thanks for the answers.

I actually think the Gold Ranger's Mega Mode is better than the actual suit. Maybe it's my fascination with the black/gold combo as opposed to the blue/gold combo we seem to get more often these days.

Samurai was originally a toy only line, with the Mega Modes only, but then they put out the show, and that's why we got Mega Mode figures before Regular figures. The Mega Modes worked out to pad out the toy line, adding a Mega Mode and Super Mega Mode to last the toy line 2 years. Megaforce won't have this benefit since they already showed Super Goseiger Mode at Power Morphicon as a toy. It's giving credence to Gokaiger being 2014.

I think all the Mega Modes look better than the actual suits. We need an armored MMPR team.
