Deep Cuts & Morphin’ Mayhem: Lorcana’s Bold New Expansion and the Power Rangers’ Wild Merch Saga (Ep. 73)
Jim Hill and Lauren Hersey ring in the holiday season with a look at Disney Lorcana’s newest expansion, Whispers in the Well—a set packed with gorgeous art, new gameplay mechanics, and some of the deepest Disney cuts yet, from The Black Cauldron to Gargoyles. Then they shift from gothic fantasy to nostalgic action as they trace the surprising rise, fall, and resurgence of the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, including the merch craze that once swept toy aisles and the collector market that’s exploding again today.

Lorcana’s “Whispers,” new boost mechanics, and art featuring The Black Cauldron, Gargoyles, and Zootopia characters.
Why fans are hoping for a dedicated Art of Lorcana book.
The wild history of Power Rangers merch, from ’90s shortages to today’s sky-high collector prices.
