Power Ranger ACG promotions
Today I have found two packs of promotional ACG cards. One set was found in the Power Rangers Super Samurai official magazine, the other at a PRMF promotional even in the Entertainer.

Inside the magazine itself, there is a two page spread for the Megaforce toys:
 |
| Power Rangers Megaforce toy add in issue 16 of the Power Rangers Super Samurai Magazine |
 |
| Power Rangers Megaforce next issue advertisement |
On the cover it advertises that you get 5 Megaforce Cards and has the picture of Megaforce Red. All the packets inside the issues I saw were the same so I'm guessing this is the only set in this magazine.

You get some really cool cards in this little pack, including the Super Rare MMPR Red Ranger. There is a problem though, that MMPR Red Ranger is supposed to be a shiny. Not only have they edited the card, changed the contrast and printed it on cheaper card, made it glossy, they have taken away the shiny background.

I feel that we are been cheated out of the awesome cards even though this card was free. I don't agree with them changing the cards like this. It's good we are getting them, but they are sacrificing quality to save money and it really bothers me. I don't see why they can't just release the cards here. I had to import mine from America with a friends help.
The second promotional cards where found in the Entertainer. I spotted this from the outside and ducked in to have a look.

On the table inside there was a Gosei Morpher, a load of A4 competition papers and some promotional cards:

The free cards are pretty cool, although they have mixed series one and two up again.

Also, if you have an iPhone and can't access the scanner app, you aren't alone. The app has been down in the UK and the US since Thursday night. Very frustrating since I just got my cards from America and installed the US app to my phone since the UK one wasn't working.

ACG cards are also now available on the Forbidden Planet website:
Booster packs are £3.50 each: http://forbiddenplanet.com/107264-power-rangers-the-card-game-booster-pack/
Starter Deck is £7.99: http://forbiddenplanet.com/107265-power-rangers-the-card-game-deck/
This is the cheapest I have seen the Starter Deck so far. You will need to buy the Starter Deck to complete the card collection as the cards included inside are not available in the boosters.
The price for the cards is pretty crazy though, I can get two boxes from America for the price of 15 single boosters from there. I would recommend you shop around on American websites and see about getting the boxes from there. There are 15 packs in a box, ten cards in each pack.
