Go, Go Power Rangers! The second annual Power Morphicon will morph the Pasadena Convention Center into Ranger Central. Power Morphicon will feature exclusive panels, guest appearances, and a silent auction the weekend of August 27-29, 2010. More than one thousand attendees will enjoy expanded offerings this year, featuring a variety of engaging experiences including more than twenty specialty vendors, costume contests and a Power Quest Trivia Game. This year the convention welcomes the master toy licensee, Bandai America Incorporated, as the premier sponsor.
The Power Rangers convention boasts an impressive roster of fan favorites from the iconic series, who will participate in panels and exclusive autograph signings. Special guests include Jason David Frank, Steve Cardenas, Karen Ashley, Barbara Goodson, Blake Foster, Walter Emanuel Jones, Matt Austin, Jessica Rey, Catherine Sutherland, Tony Oliver and many more. In addition, Bandai America Incorporated will be hosting a booth in the Dealers Room providing fans the opportunity to meet and take photos with two of the Mighty Morphin’ Power Rangers characters on Saturday! The Bandai America Incorporated booth will also include a rare look at a collection of Power Rangers toys, and offer limited giveaways. Additional vendors participating in this year’s convention include CS Toys International, RedStarRobot and AnimeBooks.com among others.
“The Power Morphicon convention is one of a kind, allowing our audience to get up close and interact with the guests at our panels, and maybe even learn a thing or two at one of our Ranger Events,” said Erin Coplan, Executive Coordinator for Power Morphicon. “We have everything the Power Ranger fans could ask for and a lot of surprises in store they won’t expect.”
“Power Morphicon is very excited to have Bandai at our convention,” said Chairmen Scott Zillner. “We believe in their commitment to the franchise, and having them at our event only enriches the overall fan experience.”
“Bandai America Incorporated is delighted to celebrate fans’ devotion and enthusiasm for the Power Rangers brand at the 2010 Power Morphicon,” said Mark Schaffner, Executive Vice President of Toys for Bandai America Incorporated. “The diverse fan base is a testament to the brand’s pop culture dominance for nearly 20 years, and we look forward to creating imaginative and innovative Power Rangers play experiences for many generations to come.”
