The Unofficial End to the Toy Hunt

So the McDonalds Super Samurai toy campaign is in it's last week or so... and I have to say that I've been more successful than most in managing to be able to grab all of the toys released.

However..

I am MISSING #2!!! And considering they just released #7 and #8 I don't think I'll be able to find it in stores....

Might have to snag it off of ebay or something..

I finally was able to get the Gold Ranger! YAAAAY!!! I'm happeh! I do love me some Gold Ranger Power. ;) I was wondering when he would show up in this run. Just like the other Ranger figures, he's able to pose his arms and swing his sword when you twist is torso back. Even though The Blue Ranger is my favorite, I think this guy is my favorite figure of the bunch.

The Black Box Disc launcher is #8!

Umm... Here's a better picture.  [Cropped down from a larger image posted on the McDonald's Happy Meal Website.]

This is one COOL toy. It pretty much resembles the new Samurai morpher.. but on a wee bit smaller scale. It comes with a set of 3 discs when you can stuff into the south end of the morpher.  And then to launch the little things, you press down on the gold symbol and PRESTO!

Pretty slick, I must say.

I'm going to have to make another trip to McDonalds before the campaign ends.. I need a second morpher thingy so I can play with it.

Go go Samurai!

Power Ranger Toy Hunt Chronicles

So yesterday I managed to obtain  #5 and #6 of the Power Rangers Samurai toys from McDonalds... Though, I'm half starting to freak out because I'm missing #2.... So it appears I'm going to have to do some hunting in order to get it. So... only three more toys and I'll have the entire set.

Gettin' closer at least!!

Blue Ranger is lucky number 5 in the set. He pretty much does the same thing as the Red, Gree, and Gold Rangers.  If you push back his torso and position his arms, his sword snaps forward.

I have to admit, I was suuuper happy when the guy working at the McDonalds handed it to me. Probably a little too excited to receive one of these little guys. I kinda smiled sheepishly and told him I was a collector and a fan (obviously). He just kinda grinned and rang me up. I think i'll go back up there and get another Blue Ranger... just because he's my favorite ranger from Samurai and I want him to sit on my desk. (heehee.)


#6 in the series is the notorious Shark Blaster!

Here's a better image. [Cropped down from a larger image posted on the McDonald's Happy Meal Website.]
 

 I have to admit..  THIS one is really awesome. There's three little discs in the side compartment. And once you load it up into the front end of the blaster you can pull back the small trigger on the opposite side of the disc container and fire!! I love the fact that it's got a little keychain thingy on the end of it as well. Which means this can easily clip on a backpack zipper or a belt loop or... your purse! ;) Maybe you can use it to fire at someone annoying in the grocery store line.

[Um.. Not that I'm recommending for you to seriously fire this at random people in line-- but it would be kinda hilarious! Just be prepared to get smacked or something. Hah!]

Wooo! Ranger Toys. Time for an episode of Super Samurai now, I think. ;)

Power Rangers Super Samurai at McDonalds!

THANK you to m' buddy Zion for tipping me off!

I had NO ideas Power Rangers were makin' a comeback in kids meals. (I should have known better.)

I managed to snag #1 (Red Ranger) and #3 (Green Ranger).

And LOOKIE! They're in Mega Mode!! ^_^

Well Red's in his Shark Mega mode and Green is in Super Mega Mode.

When you move their torsos they snap-swing their swords forward. It seems you can move their arms up and down to position the sword/arms as well. These guys are pretty sweet, I have to admit!

I'm resisting the urge to break them open and play with them *giggles* Maybe I'll get another set for that...

They're so cute! :]

My guess is that some locations might have #2 and #4 out already so I'm going to go hunting and see if I can acquire them over the next day or so...

More to come! ♥

Morphicon Haul!

The past few days I've honestly been trying to take my time to get over this dreaded 'Nerd Flu.' I came home from the convention and my eyes just started watering, my nose was immediately clogged, just feeling all around horrible. 

Aruuugh.

I don't get it. I doubled up on Vitamins before, during and after the con and I still get hit with things?! At least... it didn't stick around for long. 

Anwway I wanted to get a few shots of the goodies that I brought home from Power Morphicon.

First the Freebies!

  • A Red Ranger shirt (black) with Might Morphin' Red, Megaforce Red and Super Samurai Shogun Mode Red
  • Silver 2012 Convention Coin
  • Power Morphicon Pin
  • Blke Foster's Blue Crew rubber bracelet
  • Power Morphicon Laynyard (came with ze badge. Hehe!)
  • Power Rangers Samurai Lego Figure (I got Red Ranger! :D)
  • 4 Mini Posters [Lord Zed Poster was signed by Tone Rodriguez!]
  • Power Rangers Super Samuari Mini Comic
  • Power Morphicon Postcard (I wish I got more of these!!)

My Purchases!!

  • Power Rangers Ninja Storm Red Wind Ninja Jacket
  • Power Rangers Lost Galaxy Morpher [FINALLY have one!!!!! It works and everything!]
  • Vernon Wells as Ransik Autograph print
  • Mike Ginn as Gem Autograph print [SEE!??! He loved teh sticker I gave him!! ♥]
  • Flashpoint Zoom Comicon Exclusive Figure [Technically not Ranger related but I saw him and couldn't pass up the opportunity to have him. You all know how much of a Flash freak I am. Hah!]
And about that Comicon Zoom figure-- considering I wasn't able to attend.. or pick one up online? Seeing him there... He was the happy impulse by. Gunna have to find a special spot for him somewhere on my wall.

Working on making frames for the two autographed prints of Mike and Vernon as well. They've gotta drrrry first! Maybe tomorrow I can do some room-wall arranging or something.. Heh!

The Lost Galaxy Morpher I got was from an awesome little vendor booth on the left side of the vendor haul.. I bought it from a lady named Sara. I don't know what shop she was representing.. but she and I had an awesome conversation on Saturday while hanging out off to the side of the convention floor while she was on break.

YOU ARE AWESOME LADY! I need to find you!! If you ever happen to read this... I'm sure you'd remember the chick that was dressed up as Marah, right? Anyway... CONTACT ME!! ♥ I'm going to see if I can't track you down. xD

Giftie!!

My very first Dice-O Card of  Ninja Storm Blue! Given to me by Char! ♥ Thank you so much!!

I think I need to get more of these cards.. I saw a bunch while I was up there at the con and kept looking at them. I KNEW I SHOULD HAVE GOTTEN SOME!!  *headdesk* Another time, I suppose. Hehe!

Two More Days!

Yuuuup. Morphicon is in two days!

Technically.. My weekend starts.... on Thursday buuut....

*giggles*

And for the occasion!

I made a special sticker. :D



I ran out of ink for the printer to print out a few extra stickers like I wanted. I only managed to print 4 extra of this one...

Unless I run to the store and buy a new color ink cartridge here a little bit later tonight...

If that's the case... then... well... I can make my Ransik sticker! :D

Silver Guradian Can Save Me Any Day!


A few weeks ago my sweetie asked if I would be so kind as to make him a set of patch-like-thingies (badges? I dunno what to call them!) for his Silver Guardain costume that he plans on wearing to Morphicon next month. 

So i ended up making these for him. 

They're soft and really flexible (made from that fun-foam) stuff... and I affixed a couple of pin backs to them so he can pin them in place later on.

Man.... I'm so hoping it looks alright once he pins them on. :3

OMG SOON!!!

And to make it even better?! They announced that Reggie and Amy Rolle (That's Damon and Trekkina from Lost Galaxy for the non Ranger savvy. xD) are gunna be there!

EEEEEEEEEEE!!!!! MY FAAAVORITE green ranger!! (well one of my three... four?) But OMG I'm so excited! I've always wanted to meet/see them in person. So this will certainly be an added treat. :D

I've been meaning to post these up for a good minute.... I had them in my camera for a few days and just couldn't get around to posting them up like how I wanted until.. well.. now. xD

I got off my lazy butt and properly showcased them!


And NOW I can call my own personal footsoliders out to attack! :D Lookie!! Kalzak plushie!! ♥



I really wanted to make 2 of these little guys...but.. He was a bit of a pain to make anyway, so I think one is enough. ^^;
