August Swag!

I didn’t realize I got so much stuff in August until I had to ship most of the swag via the US Postal Service. So here’s my haul for August.

Here’s the exclusive Power Morphicon toy from Bandai. At first I wasn’t going to buy it, but then as I was picking up on for a friend, I noticed that the Power Morphicon logo was on it. For those who don’t know, I designed the Power Morphicon logo. This is the first time a design of mine has been on an official product, so heck yeah I’m buying it. I can actually show this to mom!

As a Power Force member, we were treated to a breakfast during Power Morphicon and each received gift bags. The following pictures are the contents (and the bag itself).

Super Samurai tshirt in XL…for men. Guess I won’t be wearing this outside…

Super Samurai Red Ranger toy. It’ll go very well with the exclusive PMC toy!

Anyone want any stickers? I sure don’t.

Volumes 1 and 2 of Power Rangers Samurai on DVD. Nice!

Tshirt time! If you went to Power Morphicon, you’ll recognize the first two shirts right away. The Vortexx folks were giving away Lost Galaxy shirts…in XL…for men. Please make some lady shirts! The second is one of the Power Morphicon shirts. Pretty sweet.

The following two shirts are the best shirts ever. The first being awesome and the second being awesomer! And finally, these shirts are my size, so I can rock ‘em with pride!

Finally, here’s the swag I bought from Walter Jones. The first being a rare poster of him, Austin St. John, and Thuy Trang doing a promo shot for Cyber Force. Cyber Force was a movie that the three were going to work on but it didn’t pan out. At least they have pictures to prove it almost existed! The last picture is self-explanatory awesomeness. I, too, want to be a Dance Master and a Karate Master!

Blast from the Power Past – Thuy Trang Interview

This clip is from the documentary Encyclopedia of Martial Arts: Hollywood Celebrities in 1995. Thuy Trang was one of the many martial artists featured, and she talked about how she almost died as an infant, but it was the persistence of her mother that kept her alive. She also talked about how she got on Power Rangers, so check it out below!

For those who are still unaware, Thuy passed away September 3, 2001 in a car accident. She was 27.

Thuy Trang and Former Co-star Meet Up

You know you love gossip. You know you do. And Jason David Frank is the reigning king of gossip. Since he’s been making his anime convention rounds, we all seem to learn a little bit every step of the way. Most recently, he attended Anime Festival Orlando, and he really had a lot to say about other people, lol! (And yes, he mentioned things about himself too.)

Here’s the link to the video clips that are already on YouTube. Highlights:

- Jason claims that he was going to be part of Kamen Rider Dragon Knight as one of the leads. Steve Wang, one of the producers of the show, called him up to be a part off it, but the “owner of the show” didn’t want him because of the Power Rangers association.

- Jason said that Blake Foster (Justin from Power Rangers Turbo) borrowed $2,500 from him to buy a go-kart, but then Blake’s family filed for bankruptcy and named Jason as one of the claims. Ouch!

- Jason claims that Austin St. John told the MMPR cast that he was mobbed by fans before the show even started.

But wait! There’s more!

I got an advanced copy of the Sunday panel in its entirety, and Jason doesn’t stop there! He joked about his time with Alyson Kiperman (Taylor from Power Rangers Wild Force) on MTV’s Undressed: Throwing her around and her getting a bit winded from certain…scenes, and how his kissing power lead her to become a Power Ranger. All jokes of course. But then he told a story about an awkward moment in a restaurant:

Jason and his agent were in a restaurant in Hollywood one time, and this was around 3 years after Austin St. John, Walter Jones, and Thuy Trang left the show. Jason and the agent take a seat, and guess which one out of the three waited on them? None other than Thuy Trang! Jason said he really felt bad that she was their waitress and wanted to ask her to join them.

Talk about life being an itchbay! May she rest in peace of course…
