Power Rangers Samurai Origins Special Coming Soon

Can I get an AMEN?! Can I get a HALLELUJAH!?

Fans knew something was up when Power Rangers Samurai gave us a big kick in rear into their 3rd episode as passed that off as a premiere. Since then, we’ve been waiting to see the actual premiere, and it’s coming!

Up until last week, The Licensing Book Blog said that the “Power Rangers Samurai Origins special…will air on Nickelodeon in September”. But now, the blog is singing a different tune and “September” is nowhere to be found in the article. Notice the differences below:

The Licensing Book Blog – Google cache on June 22, 2011
The Licensing Book Blog – Current as of June 30, 2011

Was a mistake? Did they speak too soon? Will the special be pushed back? Pushed up? We need answers!
