Power Rangers Legends to be Released
From Slide to Play:
"Combat-wise, the game feels familiar, using swipes for sword slashes. We were unable to counter attacks by slashing in the opposite direction, so this ability may not be in the final game. However, you could activate a series of nicely-animated special kicks and blasts with buttons that appeared in the upper-right of the screen, which show off a bit more of your Ranger's skills. Disappointingly, you won't be able to combine your Rangers into one giant mech for an epic showdown.
Since Power Rangers Legends covers multiple seasons of the show, you'll be able to download extra seasons and episodes (containing unique enemies) using in-app purchases. In this way, the game is tied more closely to the show's history than some other licensed games we've played. But the simple gameplay and lack of combat variety might make additional seasons a hard sell. Power Rangers Legends will be available on the App Store in mid-November."

New Kyoryuger Rumors
From RangerBoard:
-The partner beasts for Kyoryuuger will be digital, much like Digimon
-The story of Kyoryuuger will revolve around the idea that dinosaurs managed to survive in some fashion on a certain island. 3 different organizations will compete to gain the powers they possess.
-Yoshio Urasawa (Carranger's main writer), and also a writer for Digimon Adventure and Abaranger, is rumored to be the head writer for Kyoryuuger. Responsible for some awesomely ridiculous episodes in Carranger and Abaranger, his work on Digimon is actually kind of the opposite; going from weird to mind bending (and writing the now classic Episode 21 of Adventure.)

New Go-Busters Episode Summaries
From RangerBoard:
OCTOBER AND NOVEMBER MISSIONS:
The Go-Busters had ventured into Hyperspace, and thought they defeated their enemies, the Vagrass, but it seems they were wrong. Enter, Escape, and possibly even Messiah still function. Just before the Busters defeated Messiah, Enter made a back up of his data. It seems Messiah planned his own destruction, to gather data on those who would be able to defeat him. In short, he needs data on human kind, to start his plans to erode the Earth...
Mission 33:
Title- Morphin'! Powered Custom
Airs- 10/7/12
Summary-
Enter, who had not been destroyed, develops the "Earth Erosion Strategy" for Messiah's purposes. The Metaroids and Megazords have now gained a power up with this new plan from Messiah, and the Go-Busters unleash their own power up to counter them- becoming the Go-Busters Powered Custom.
Note- SunadokeRoid (HourglassRoid) will be the Metaroid for this episode. His Zord will not appear until the next ep.
Mission 34:
Title- Teki wa BeetBuster?! (BeetBuster is the Enemy?!)
Airs- 10/14/12
Summary-
Although their battle in Hyperspace is still fresh in memory, Hiromu and Masato once again have a serious clash! Why are these two really fighting each other?
Note- PuppetRoid will be the Metaroid for this episode (meaning that Hiromu and Masato are being puppeted.) PuppetZord and SunadokeZord will also appear.
Mission 35:
Title- TategamiRaiOh, Hoeru! (TategamiRaiOh, Roar!)
Airs- 10/21/12
Summary-
A new mecha, TategamiRaiOh (voiced by Ichiro Mizuki) appears in front of our heroes and says, simply, that he wants to challenge the Go-Busters to a fight!
The Go-Busters investigate the new bot, and end up finding the daughter of one Professor Hazuki Saburo, Hazuki Mika (played by Oho Sayoko). All Mika has to say is that "My father made TategamiRaiOh in order to defeat you!".
Notes- It would seem RaiOh is a rival mecha to the Busters' Machines. Also, Megazord Epsilon will once again be appearing in the ep.
Mission 36:
Title- Go-BusterRaiOh Gakiin! (Gakiin has no really english meaning, it's an onomatopoeia for something shining or glistening.)
Airs- 10/28/12
Summary-
The Buddyroids go on strike, in request of better treatment. This puts the use of Powered Custom in jeopardy, as it requires the Go-Busters and Buddyroids to synchronize. What will the Go-Busters do?!
Notes- As the title suggests, this episode will feature Go-BusterRaiOh's first appearence. BulldozerRoid and BulldozerZord will appear as the enemies.

New Kamen Rider Wizard Pics
From Henshin Justice:
When using the Flame Dragon Ring, Wizard transforms from Flame Style to Flame Dragon. With the ring, Wizard brings out the power of his inner Phantom, the WizarDragon, and uses its power. Flame Dragon is much stronger with immense and amazing power.
In conjunction with the new form, here comes the Special Ring. When used the head of the WizarDragon will appear on Wizard’s chest and he can fire high-intensity flames, acting like a cannon.
The Drill Ring allows Wizard to spin at high speeds and attack the Phantoms. Here the Land Style is seen to use the Drill Ring fighting a new Phantom, Gnome.
The Extend Ring allows Wizard’s left hand to stretch and bend at will with ease, reaching far distance objects, such as saving Shunpei from the Ghouls. As seen in Episode 3, the Please Ring transfers magical power from one person to another, Koyomi relies on this to keeping herself ‘alive’. The Smell Ring, like it’s name suggests, releases a horrible odor.
The mysterious White Wizard, who was revealed to be the person giving Haruto the WizarDriver. Just who is he? Is he on Haruto’s side or is he evil and has other intentions? Currently the real identity of the White Wizard is unknown.

New Kamen Rider Wizard Rumors
From RangerBoard:
The following is a rumor, please take with many grains of salt:
-Wizard's world is like Hibiki's, there are many Mahoutsukai all over the world. 5 are set to appear within the course of Wizard's story.
-Wizard will have 2 Final Forms, whose rings seem to be "Adamantite and Orichalum" (2 Mythical/Legendary metals.) The rings are set on a Knuckle device. The Knuckle can become a MachineGun, and a Cannon.
-The 2nd Rider will be Kamen Rider Witch, the first female secondary rider. Witch is like Wizard, but has a Witch's hat-type helmet, and her jewelery is "clear" colored. She has a Broom-styled Halberd as her weapon, which can turn into a Sniper Rifle. She transforms/Form Changes by setting clear jewelery onto her neckless.
-The 3rd Rider, currently nameless, will have a "Japanese Magician/Diviner" motif. His head is shaped like Fourze's. Has a "Summoner Form" and a "Samurai Form." Samurai Form can move at incredible speed, but can only be maintained for a short period of time. Summoner Form can summon Phantoms that Samurai Form has defeated and let the Rider control them.
-The Wizard Summer movie will detail the unknown portion of Wizard's training from his Master, and the first time he transforms. It will also be the first appearance of his Final Forms and Rider # 3.

More Kyoryuger Rumors
From RangerBoard:
Quoted by dukemon22:
"After searching a couple of websites, I found some interesting theories about Kyoryuuger from Japanese sites. WARNING- THESE ARE NOT RUMORS, FACTS, OR OTHERWISE. They are just things people have noticed, and are not confirmed in any way:
-Red could have a Pteranodon motif
Why? Different fans have discussed the motif of Red this year being a Pteranodon. OOO's medals were extremely popular, and Putotyranno seems to have been especially popular. In that combo, we have Pteranodon as the head.
My take- I think this is a pretty logical theory. Pteranodon is going to be included in the lineup somewhere, and red is a fitting place for it. If Red isn't going to be T-Rex, he needs to be something that still has the clout of one. Also, even though the Pteranodon has exclusively gone to female rangers, we did have both TopGaler and the RhamphoGolds in Abaranger; both other species of flying reptile related to Pteranodon.
-The origin of the title, "Jyuden Sentai Kyoryuuger"
Take "Kyoryuu Sentai Jyuranger", flip the words around and you get "Jyuren Sentai Kyoryuuger". Just change out the "r" for a "d" and there's your title. How did I miss that lol.
-Henshin Device might be a Smartphone afterall
From the same poster who talked about the title's origin. As previously reported "Jyuden" can be a play on "Juuden" or Charge. The original poster thinks this might indicate the henshin device having to charge after use; i.e. being some sort of new tech device, like a smart phone. Given the evolution of Sentai Henshin Devices over the years, it would only make sense. The "popular item" of the day was used to transform. We went from watches, to braces, to phones, and the next step would be a smart phone, or tablet like device."

New Jyuden Sentai Kyoruger Rumors
From RangerBoard:
WARNING: THE FOLLOWING IS A RUMOR, PLEASE DON'T REPOST THIS WITHOUT MAKING THAT FACT CLEAR. IN ALL LIKELIHOOD, IT IS FALSE!

KyoryuuRed
KyoryuuBlue
KyoryuuGreen
KyoryuuYellow
KyoryuuPink
The mecha the Kyoryuuger pilot are referred to as the "Jyuden Genshijyu" 獣電原子獣 (Beast Electric Atom Beasts). The term is a play on the word "Genshijyu" 原始獣 (Primitive Beasts), and are not dinosaurs, but ancient animals. This makes the rumor very hard to believe, but it is interesting, and I figured posted it would breed some good discussion.
They are rumored as follows:
KyoryuuRed will control the "Jyuden GigaKong" a giant ape type mecha, with rock-like plating. GigaKong is named after the Gigantopithecus:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gigantopithecus
