Goseiger Change Cards / Dice-O Cards (2010)


Super Sentai Battle: Dice-O originated around the time of the Goseigers' cameo in Shinkenger and Go-Onger's crossover movie. This is fitting as one of its arcade machines was actually a character in the series and they used its cards as the conduit for their powers. I found these particular renditions of their change cards on ebay listed as 'props.' They aren't, given that they have katakana instead of English, but they are a step closer than the ones available at retail with the Sentai Hero vinyls as they do have the correct foil effect (also visible here most prominently on Eri's). Turns out they were actually in the sixth wave of Dice-O! Plenty of folks detest cards as a gimmick, but given that the barcodes are out there ripe for the printing, for use with the toys that can read them, I'm very much a fan.

I'll list the retail released cards below the cut.

4 Unique Barcodes out of 5


Here are the cards that would normally be considered 'DX' in any other toyline:

Goseiger Sentai Hero Vinyl Series:
  • Gosei Red
    • Comprethunder Revolution (from Epic 13)
  • Gosei Pink
    • Change Gosei Pink
  • Gosei Black
    • Change Gosei Black
  • Gosei Yellow
    • Change Gosei Yellow
  • Gosei Blue
    • Change Gosei Blue
  • Gosei Knight
    • Summon Knight Brothers
    • I can only guess his Change card was only released via Dice-O machines?
  • Super Gosei Black
    • A Super Gosei Black card that is NOT the one from Epic 27
I never bought Alata and Hyde's Super vinyls. I would guess they come with cards similar to Agri's.

Stand-Alone Tensouder:
  • Change Gosei Red
  • Summon Skick Sword
  • Summon Gosei Dragon
  • Twistornado
  • Combine Gosei Great (Skick)
Stand-Alone Gosei Card Buckle:
  • Summon Seaick Bowgun
  • Summon Shark Headder
  • Summon Gosei Tiger
Tensouder & Gosei Card Buckle Set:
  • All of the cards from the individual releases, plus...
    • A non-show Gosei Red card,
    • which has lightning behind him, but is not the Comprethunder Revolution card from Epic 13.
Gosei Blaster:
  • Summon Dragon Headder
Sky Buster Set:
  • Gosei Dynamic - Red
  • Gosei Dynamic - Pink
Land-Sea Buster Set:
  • Gosei Dynamic - Black
  • Gosei Dynamic - Yellow
  • Gosei Dynamic - Blue
Gosei Tensword:
  • Summon Miracle Gosei Power - Red
  • The other four are included in the first release.
    • If you buy one sealed, you'll probably still get them, though.
  • Sky Dynamic - Red
Gosei Great:
  • Victory Charge - Gosei Great
Seaick Brothers Set:
  • Summon Seaick Brothers
Landick Brothers Set:
  • Summon Landick Brothers
Skick Brothers Set:
  • Summon Skick Brothers
Mystic Brothers Set:
  • Summon Mystic Brothers
Summon Exotic Brothers exists.
  • Almost positive it was released via Dice-O Machines
Datas Hyper:
  • Summon Hyper Change Headder
  • Combine Hyper Gosei Great
  • Change Groundion
  • Summon Vulcan Headder
  • Combine Gosei Ground
Leon Lazer:
  • Knight Dynamic
Gosei Ground:
  • Victory Charge - Gosei Ground
Gosei Wonder:
  • Summon Gosei Wonder
Gosei Ultimate:
  • Ultimate Charge


Predictably, some (probably MANY) of the cards were released via Dice-O machines. I saw the listings once upon a time, but I absolutely cannot remember them item by item and the official pages are sadly no longer online. Lame...

Eri's Comprethunder Revolution was presumably released as such, but you can find it in the Power Rangers ACG, assuming you're fine with different text. I mean, you should be, considering that the retail cards in Japan are inaccurate to begin with. The cards on screen are in English. Don't hold your breath on a Gosei Card Archives.

I can't begin to tell you if the following were ever made:
  • Kaen Tornado
  • The Summon Super Mojikara Power cards
  • Combine Ground Hyper Gosei Great
  • The Mojikara Victory Charge cards

If you can find Zeltrax Millenium's deviantart page, however...   😀

He even made one for Gosei Global and the 'empty' sky one from the OP! Groovy.
