Rangercast Episode 97: More Betterer Super Happy Fun Hero Time For Lazy Americans

This episode's so big, we did it in two parts. That and since there's no show next week (Tyler is going to be very busy the next couple weekends), we thought we'd do another part for episode discussion and other stuff that came up. So yeah.

Part I- Tyler, Mike Manos, Mike Dent, and Ryan Tober handle Otakon hype. Er, Tyler and Mike Dent handle Otakon hype, since they're the ones going. We geek out over the schedule. Oh, and there's a Rangerboard gathering for all interested.

Then we talk about Go-Onger, Kiva, and why PLEX makes us want to hurt things. Go-Onger is getting a Mastadon, Triceratops, T-Rex, and a Warrior Wheel clone Go-Roader. Yes, really. Ugh. Oh, and the logical follow up to the G-9, G-12 etc., is the G-π.

Kamen Rider Den-O is still chugging along, despite its climax passing long ago (can you tell it's Tyler who's writing these show notes?). And Super 8 Ultra Brothers looks friggin' sweet.

Part II- Tyler, Chris, Ryland, and Darrin deconstruct "Arise the Crystal Eyes." It's really quite tremendously awful. At least next time is the Spirit Rangers, where all is slated to be redeemed.

Then, after some other news, we get serious. Maureen (Ivydraken, of Power Morphicon fame) is planning to put three autographed PMC banners up on eBay for Make-A-Wish Foundation sometime in the next weekish. The problem? There were originally four banners. What happened to the fourth banner? That's a long, mysterious tale.

And again, please donate to the cancer drive. We have prizes. Seriously. As I write this I have two action figures sitting next to me, and one of them (plus another maybe) may be yours. It's for an awesome cause guys!

Off to Otakon next weekend. Wish me luck.
