Tomocast 27 should be recording tonight...at least I hope so photo


I've tried to record an episode 27 twice before and fate had deemed me unworthy to pod. I'm going to through fate to the wind and try yet again, this time with Chris Pranger and Andres Cerrato as we discuss super sentai and tokusatsu shows. If there are some powerful rangers or masked riders, this will be the pod you'll want to listen to.

As ever, we'll need your questions, so please send any ya got our way and we'll ask them tonight!

is eps 27 going like the fabled eps 13?

Go go Power Rangers! New Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers!

Despite most being fairly lousy, it's amazing how popular these were/are. Some of the hilariously bad theme songs were downright addictive so maybe it was all subliminal. What I do know was that these things were crazy spoofed, my favorite parody being the Axem Rangers. But hey, any excuse to work SMRPG into a conversation. Hey... is that Culex over there...?
Agreed with Scarecroodle, the Axem Rangers were the best super sentai team.

Also, unrelated to podcast at hand, but would you guys mind putting the older episodes of Tomocast on iTunes? I know you switched servers and the middle episodes probably weren't the most professional (lol 2 hour personacast). But I really enjoyed listening to them!
If you were a ranger, which color would you be?

Bonus points for the weird crayola-esque (tickle-me-pink) names! Be descriptive! Macaroni and cheese!

Personally, I would be the 'Uncooked Hot Dog Pink' Ranger.
Do any of you guys remember Super Human Samurai Cyber Squad?
We believe in you, you can make a 27
Also, why is the black ranger almost always the coolest? Sure, he doesn't get any super special items/gimmicks half the time but Walter Emmanuel Jones was clearly cooler than his mostly white colleagues and JBY ratcheted it up two more stages.

Will you also be discussing post-sentei careers? I think JBY is the only one to really make something of himself. Was surprised to see WEJ in some bank commercials (bear in mind he was on that terrible Nick scifi years ago after MMPR). Thuy Tung (sp?) is just dead, for instance.
How do you think Sentai series have changed modern american sci-fi? like action sequences etc.

Also, which of you men love men the most?
What I want to know is how many rangers are there in the entire series, and if they could do a massive Rangers Army episode with all of them.

I mean really, I know that they pulled some plot stunts that would make it very hard, but isn't that what the rangers is about?

So how many rangers are there? Enough for an army?
Since it hasn't been asked: What is your favorite Zord? The classic Megazord or one from a more modern series?

Don't worry, I'm going to continue re-releasing the old episodes every other week!

Shizuoka Hobby Show: Roll out the re-colors edition

There's a fine line between milking the cow and killing the golden goose. Bandai's Premium Web Shop walks the line like a guy with a blood alcohol level of 0.08. While a few of their efforts aren't too offensive, when you sta...

Shizuoka Hobby Show: Pokemon Plamo

There is more to plamo than just robots. In the past couple of years, Pokemon has gotten in on the plamo action. With several evolution sets already in production, there's a long way still to go before 649. They're inching ev...

Shizuoka Hobby Show: new Gundam High Grade kits

This year's Shizuoka has been my Itchy and Scratchy Land. Ready to go head over heels at all of the sights, only to be disappointed by the sameness of it all. That's not to say that there aren't gems and things to be excited ...

Shizuoka Hobby Show: Master Grade Gundam 3.0

It was just announced yesterday and I wasn't thrilled by the news. It's just what feels like Master Grade Gundam #47. There's a reason why it was made though and Bandai had to prove that today. With what looks like a 1/100 sc...

Saint Cloth Myth project makes announcement via Ustream

Last week, Tamashii Nations teased Saint Seiya fans with an announcement that they had a big news.

Their news would be revealed on May 15 on Ustream at 1:30 Japan Standard Time. So what was their big news? Click the cut to find out!

Combine two great tastes in one: Gundam models and curry

If there is any dish I love, it's curry. If there's any object I love, it's Gundam models. When the two get together, you would think I'd devour this down. When faced with an unappetizing dish, slap a Gundam on it and watch i...

SHF Sailor Mercury prototype spotted in the wild

That didn't take too long. When the announcement came that a S.H. Figuarts Sailor Moon was on the way, the first question that came to many minds was what would happen with the other Sailor Scouts/Senshi. Those questions look...

Rock out with Mega Man X's Ultimate Armor

Despite its fair popularity, I've never really looked into Bandai's D-Arts line. With this upcoming release though, I'm beginning to sorely regret not paying attention sooner. I grew up on the Blue Bomber, and I've followed e...
