Apps available
Okay, so it's actually been available for a while now, and I've just been sending links to interested parties. I know my readership is small, nearly nonexistent, BUT I still want to make those of you have a good experience.
Here's the link!
Ranger Board didn't want me working on an app for them since they want to team up with TapaTalk or something like that, so I did this instead. Hey, why not? It's simple and leaves a small footprint. Once I get Flash CS6, I'm going to republish it so AIR is included and not a required download, but for the time being, you'll need it.
As an added bonus, I made (with some help from a friend of mine from Mutnick Media) a Spoony Soundboard, with all of his BETRAYALS in it.I just whipped it up for the fun of it, and I've gotten a ton of fun out of it.
Betrayed Me!
If you want either one customized for you, let me know.

MIA again, and where I am with my reviews
So, I haven't done any reviews lately. I have one that I haven't posted yet of the Legend Sentai Ranger Key series 1. Reason being, I don't like it. I have the Gobusters Ranger Key Set 2, Kamen Rider OOO set, and a new Figuarts to add into the mix, as well as an unboxing I've been holding off on until the Mega Force TCG comes out. I've pre-ordered the Gridman and both Liveman Figuarts from Image Anime, and will review them in November when they arrive.
The reason I haven't posted anything at all is because I have a new baby baby girl, and have been busy learning to develop mobile apps at work.
For my Gekiranger VS Jungle Fury review, I've had a tough time getting through Gekiranger. It's not that it's bad, I just got distracted with Kamen Rider. I'd never really watched Kamen Rider before, but I decided that since I was buying the OOO keys, I should probably learn about the franchise it comes from. Despite all the reading I'd done on it in the past, I hadn't actually watched any of it. Since Fourze is still ongoing, I started with OOO. After finishing that, I went on to Kamen Rider W, and am now on Decade. Once I finish Decade, I will move on to Kiva and Den-O. After that, I'm going to go back to Gekiranger to continue with my US/JP story comparison.
I will be doing a series review of Gobusters once it's completed. Akibaranger, being much shorter will probably not get a full review. In short, I liked it, but it's mostly just fanservice.
If anyone is wondering, no I'm not actually planning on reviewing the Kamen Rider shows. I just wanted to watch them.
For video reviews for the retrospectives, I'm not sure it that's actually going to happen. Reason being, I'm planning on getting into another review series. In my currently unreleased toy review, I had asked for commenter suggestions for movies that get a horrible reviews or guilty pleasures. There are so many angry reviewers out there ripping movies and shows a new one, sometimes in character, sometimes not. So, ever one to encourage people to give things a chance, I want to try to find the good points of bad movies. If I pick one of your suggestions, I have 5 spare ranger keys from my review and I will send out one of your choosing in a padded envelope. These reviews will be posted on my own server and on a new YouTube channel.
I have a bunch of stuff planned, and not a whole heck of a lot of time (I'm writing this at work...bad me) I don't have a schedule figured out yet. Also, I'm trying to convince my boss to either give or sell me one of our old and unused cameras, but he's not wearing down, so until I can convince him, I have to stick with my webcams and phone camera (which is actually pretty good). In any case, if anyone has has a bad movie idea, let me know!

Power Rangers MegaForce - What does this mean?
There has been a lot of debate about which sentai series will be adapted next. Goseiger or Gokaiger? Well, the long rumored MegaForce is confirmed to be Goseiger. Obviously very little of the CGI effects will be used since America is afraid of using angels in anything that's not of the "touched by" variety.
So, with Goseiger celebrating the 20th anniversary, and getting the movie, how will this impact our Gokaiger adaptation (if we even get one). I mean, passing on Goseiger would have been preferable, as the themes in the show were a bit too preachy for my tastes and I've never been big on their costumes, but if we get the pirates, will they have the same powers? It seems like they'll be a little late to the party if Power Rangers Space Pirates gets to transform into past rangers. The impact will be cheapened without the anniversary gimmick.
We really need more info before there'll be much more to say, but for the time being, I just worry that the epicness of a Gokaiger adaptation is in jeopardy.

The first 7 season Pre-Order
Shout! Factory and Time Life are teaming up to bring us the first 7 seasons in the Power Rangers franchise in one ginormous boxed set. That's MMPR - Lost Galaxy. No word if this includes the specials, but those we can really live without.
Check out the link
Also, as a pre-order bonus, you get the shielded Red Ranger figure from MMPR 2010. Which is kinda awesome.
As expected, this set isn't going to be easily affordable. Weighing in at a hefty $220, it's not going to be an easy purchase.
