New Bandai American Jumbo

[admin1 aka Ed]

Bandai will be releasing a jumbo Hurricane Megazord ranger. I believe the Japanese name was Sempajin"something". You may know it as the total combined version of the toy with beatles and the Lion Plus accessories.

When I previewed it at Toy Fair I found that the paint was more glossy (the Japanese release had a more realistic flat tone with extra details). It remains to be seen how the actual production toy turns out.

The Japanese version is GouraiSempujin. There was a slightly shorter vinyl jumbo released in japan, called "Jumbo hero Gourai Sempujin", but it is not the same.

Bandai Creation's jumbo will be an all new sculpt out of different materials.

Really, that is good to hear. I like the idea of keeping unique products. Thanks of the help Josh!

This guy I think is called the "Thunderstorm" Megazord. If anyone knows when he's scheduled to be released, please post.
