I loved SPD....immensely. Glad to see Hasbro doing the Rangers right.....
I am super excited. AS I am getting tired of Marvel Legends and have extra money to dictate to my Power Rangers. Just please bring back Power Rangers to its former glory and better story lines from the 90's and early 2000's. My toys need that emotional attachment. |

Either that, or Metalic Armor Yellow Ranger would have an Aisha head then. There's also the Movie version of the suit too. The potential for this line is just crazy. |
I would be down for an SDCC/NYCC exclusive MMPR Metallic Armor 6-pack.

It possible the packaging configuration is just not finalized or got finalized after they took the photos. We will see, could even be a test.
What I find interesting is White Rangers body is different from the others. The ab crunch is much higher on that figure then the other guys. First and foremost maybe I just don't have the figures but the ab crunch is inverted compared to the Marvel Legends line. For all of them the chest portion goes down as opposed to the waist coming up.I don't know if that's how they want to go for all the figures in the future or just lightning. Now as I was saying, white ranger has a higher crunch then DC Red and Shadow. But those two have the figuarts ball joint(assuming it's a ball joint). If it's a ball joint then that addresses one of my concerns. You rotate the upper chest and then you don't have two ovals forming and obvious cross. This isn't on Zedd but likely due to the piping being in the way. Paint wise DC Red is missing apps on the buckle. Missing the black on the sides and detail in the dino but we all need to be realistic that it's never gonna be 100%. As long as Hasbro is consistent and quality is good, we probably won't give them Bandai flack. Zedd is definitely getting a wash like others have said. I predict some folks may repaint him overall. His paint job isn't bad but it can be customized quite a bit. His staff is also much longer then in the first picture. It goes from the top of his head Z to his heel. Though they mess up the blade portion. it is indeed reversed. I don't think most will notice but people are gonna notice. I strongly doubt it will be fixed. Shadow Ranger. Missing some gold applications. Though it looks like they painted the sword guard gold when it's that cool silver which is a tad strange. Looks like the blade is gold as well and missing some black apps. Black apps missing on the forearms and shins. Red stripes missing around the wrists. Silver finger tips missing. White Ranger. Right off the bat, sword is missing the gold app on the coin. It's really strange because that's the side facing people when they see the packaging. I think the coin is there and it's not just a raised circle. White Ranger is also difficult proportion wise. The inner black ring on the chest coin is missing. It's like everyone keeps missing it. In the Sentai footage he has a teen like body(I assume the suit actor was a smaller man and not a kid) but in the american footage they had someone as large as JDF especially when standing next to the other guys. I always felt the legacy figure was accurate to Power Rangers version of the ranger. Anyway beyond that I don't think it's missing any other apps. All in all I think it's a good start that the pros outweigh the cons. Price and accessories vs some missing paints apps and errors. Of course it's always subject to change. They may add the corrections of take features away. |
Huzzah! Doggie does include the alt head! He was already going to be picked up, but now I'm even more excited!
|
Getting numerous reports that Lightning Collection Beast Morphers Yellow and Goldar will be Gamestop/EB Games Exclusive.
|
I hope they make all the Psycho Rangers

... Ok that is GENUINELY amazing. I may not have watched a lot of PR but goddammit I am going to get my hands on Vergil Ranger when they make it
|
Just checked, Amazon has them for pre order with a May 1st release date
|
Definitely getting shadow ranger.
Legacy figures who? Never heard of her. |
My wallet is cramping. Too much awesomeness.
|
Hmmm...seems like Hasbro's going to have more success of draining my wallet than Bandai this year.

Looks like Zedd is gonna be short packed... |
I don't blame them. He's a villain. He may not sell well. But that's just one side of it. I know a lot of people want villain figures.

I'm disappointed in Goldar and (apparently?) Beast Morphers yellow being exclusives. I hope they aren't annoying to get.

Beast Morphers Yellow was an error and a bit miscommunication on our part. |
Yeah I had to pre-order Goldar too. I'm so excited for this line, but not going all-in... but I can't resist a good villain like this. Hasbro at least understands very well people want the bad guys too, unlike certain other companies. Really looking forward to who else we get in the future now.

I'm only particularly interested in MMPR, RPM and 'Super Megaforce', but what we're seeing from this line so far is absolutely mindblowing for a 20$/£20 price point. I was extremely happy to see an extra pair of hands, too! Even one extra pair does wonders for body language and expression. I'll be VERY happy to pay full price for if they do figures I'm interested in like Ranger Slayer; this surpasses all expectations. All you needed to do was be better than Legacy and not have terrible body proportions, but no, you had to go and be a serious contender to Figuarts. Just... damn, this is a dream.
It actually makes me want 'Power Rider' now. I just want a great figure of Tajador I can pick up for £20, dammit! :lol: |
Was in Gamestop and they said that they had a Green and Red ranger listed as exclusives too. Not sure if thats accurate and there wasn't a picture or anything to show of them.

More related: the end of the heisei era would probably be as good a time as any for Masked Rider to be given another shot. |
Man, I can't wait till the magna defender gets shown and revealed a date for sale. I loved his character and never found a good figure for him.
|
Awww shit, Australians can order stuff from Amazon again. Pre-ordered White and Shadow Rangers!

Wow these look great. The Dino Charge Red seems super random though.
|
I just pre-ordered the White Ranger on Amazon, so I guess I'll find out the answer to these questions in May. But...
Did anyone see these in person? Any thoughts on how they compare, quality-wise, to the Figuarts? Design-wise, the differences are obvious: they definitely look more muscular and maybe a bit more detailed than their Figuart counterparts. But I'm interested in how the plastic, joints, paint job, etc looked in person. Really hoping I can display these alongside my current Sentai figures without an obvious gulf in quality. |
Considering they are made by Hasbro, I imagine the new PR figures will be very similar to Marvel Legends and Star Wars Black Series, so figuarts will probably be small compared to these.
|
I hope Hasbro will be make poseable Megazord figure (From MMPR to Beast Morphers) just like Bandai's Super Robot Chogokin :D
|
i hope we get non-mmpr villain figures for this line
|
What if they end up doing Masked Rider and Sheriff Skyfire

I get a feeling the next villain after Goldar will either be from a more recent season (Snide perhaps) or Rito. That said the one "general" I want so bad is Ecliptor.
But even more than him I would love some foot soldiers. Imagine some nice Z-Putties or Quantrons. I mean they could even give the Piranhatrons a swappable movie head. |

Well, I ordered a Shadow Ranger. I love DekaMaster's suit too much to pass on this. I'd still be down for a Figuart but just in case I die of old age before it happens, this will do.
|
I could see Rita happening before any other villain.
|
You know what would be really neat if we got a SPD Deka Ranger.
