Hasbro PulseCon Discussion
The unique digital convention runs September 25 and 26.
Tune in and see what the future holds! https://hasbropulse.com/pages/hasbro-pulsecon-2020 |
Will definitely talk about the EVO III Drakkon figure when it arrives.
With all the current leaks running about, it'll be interesting to see what the official next wave of the Lightning Collection is going to be. Still rooting for Ninja Storm Yellow! |
The new wave has Dino Thunder Red Ranger MMPR Green Ranger and Z putty finally.
|
|
I'll be sure to do a write-up of the stuff covered for those who can't or don't feel like tuning in. Very excited!!!
|
3PM in what timezone?

Ah, so in 20 minutes. Got it
|
first announcement: Automorph figures are back; Walmart exclusive apparently.
*Lightning Collection expands to "Lightning Collection MONSTERS." First offering: King Sphinx & Pumpkin Rapper. *LC SPD two-pack: A-Squad & B-Squad Blue Rangers. *LC In Space 2-pack: Red VS Astronema. |
Panel started early, so sorry if I missed anything said at the very start of it.
Will make a separate post for the Entertainment panel! |
Very happy to be very wrong about a few things! First, Abared has his Tyrannorod, HELL YEAH. Second, they’re doing a motw subline, huh! Sick as hell though I doubt it’s financially justifiable for more than two seconds.
|
Lightning Collection pricepoint is apparently going up to $23.
|
I have to admit, I am pretty happy with what was shown. The monster sub-line is great and I really hope it is able to sustain itself. I don't expect to get EVERY monster, but I hope they get to the most iconic ones. I am very happy with who they went with first.
Hopefully we see Pudgey Pig, Shellshock (who might get some love from TMNT fans too), Terror Toad, Chunky Chicken, Eye Guy, maybe a Soccadillo, Peckster. So many great designs. |
I’ve wanted proper metallic armour figures since those episodes first aired.
My body is ready. |
The Entertainment panel was alot of fun, and the Dino Fury trailer at the end was really hype. Can't wait to watch all of it in 2 years! lol.
|
|
Wow, they really just didn't bother grabbing a raw and just went with a TVN sub huh?
Atleast they cropped it I guess. |

Retro figures that's incredible I can those.

Really happy with all the reveals today. Monster sub-line is awesome, and the metallic pink ranger is a cool surprise. Not sure I'll get her myself, but I know metallic suits have been a popular request so I'm glad they did it. The two-packs for S.P.D. Blue A Squad/B Squad and Andros/Astronema are also great to see. And on top of all that, in the official images for MMPR Green it looks like he does have the white shoulder joints. The diamond might still be missing, but honestly that doesn't matter since it's covered by the shield. It was the missing white on the shoulders/arms that was the big issue for me since that's the part you actually see, so I'm glad that's fixed. Fantastic event overall!

Me, not a month ago: "Nah man, monsters don't make financial sense, not gonna happen."
Me, now: "... Pumpkin Rapper?" I'm happy to be proven wrong, hope to see some interesting stuff there, and it doesn't burn out after a wave or two. As for the other stuff: - Wave TheNew looks neat, Dino Thunder Red is probably my personal standout, but I also kinda want MMPR Green. I don't wanna encourage Hasbro, but his design is great! Z-Putty is good to see at mass release, too. - Imagine going back 2 years and telling people we'd be getting an A-Squad ranger ahead of Lightspeed Rescue, Wild Force, or even Turbo. But yeah, Blue-2-pack! Might see if I can grab just Sky, or maybe I'll cave and pick up the whole pack. Or I could spend the money on... - In Space Red & Andromeda. One of my favourite Rangers, with one of my favourite designs, with one of the best villains? Sure, sign me up. - Spectrum Range. Hahahahahaha seriously? |
Ok i Love that the past Dino teams get a say. BUT.. Whats with this the power comes to earth thing? Is this some other earth like in RPM & Dino Charger?

That said the trailer is probably more referring the Dino Fury powers specifically. Wouldn't be the first time MMPR being "Earth's' first Power Rangers" got retconned(Samurai, the comics, etc). |
Oh thats right. I Hope Zordon has something to do with this team.

It’s kind of amazing, really. I can’t think of anything more Power Rangers than a trailer consisting of public domain stock footage, blatantly showing Koh in the shot, and ripping TV Nihon subs despite supposedly having access to all the Ryusoulger source footage directly. And all to tell us absolutely nothing about the show. Still trying to decide whether this beats out Dino Charge’s teaser having Wizard and Beast

A-Squad vs B-Squad Blue is sweet! I'd love to get a full team of A-Squad!
|
I am at a loss for words. What the heck, did things go so sour with Toei that they resort to fansubs for footage now?
|
Everyone posts the Ankyrose screencap without realizing that it actually happened twice with Blue's zord right before it, too.
The fact that this is the second time a PR trailer failed to edit out TV-N sub graphics is hilarious. |
Glad to see Gaisorg in the Teaser. Should mean he/she should get a lot more screen time then Nada. Hasbro please do a Lighting Collection of it, and RED MAX!
|
I wonder if they will make Blue the leader of Power Rangers Dino Fury. He basicly was in Ryusoulger.
|
The cast looks amazing, although signs are pointing that it's going to be the same level as Beast Morphers and Neo-Saban shows.
Also, at the very least use Over-Time's subs or something, they did have an option to turn the subs off right? |
Time for saving money for king sphinx and pumpkin rapper.

Unless... they're making things look familiar with the intent of flipping things in a better direction midway, if the International Spoilers for Beast Morphers Season 2 are any indication! |
Pretty excited for the Andros and Astronema set! I couldn't care less about A-Squad if I tried, so the other set is not quite as interesting.
Pumpkin Rapper. |

Considering Dino Fury hasn't started filiming yet (so yeah, they used Koh to show off the Dino Keys) and this was all a big debut done at a Hasbro event (not a PR specific one) so they're operating on a deadline, maybe they either didn't have the Toei footage *yet*, or the specific team put in charge of making a trailer for this event didn't. Idk how much access marketing has to stuff like that, whether or not they get the raw footage or the Power Rangers version (presumably to stop stuff like Koh getting in there) once that's all done. Given we get this every reveal, I'm almost inclined to believe the latter.
Although, weirdly, the first result I can find on YouTube for that shot has Over-Time subs attached, not TVNihon, so who knows? And yeah, both TvN and Overtime have mkvs so you can turn subs off, which is what makes me think this was sourced not from the sites themself. Edit - All that being said, still funny tho. |
Something I find fun about these reveals is how it keeps to that thing they said about trying to be “less random” with their releases while still being very engaging. All figures revealed were either from MMPR, In Space, Dino Thunder or SPD — all series that Lightning Collection had already made a start on. And despite that, they manage to make these reveals extremely exciting by diving into a wide variety of villains I think a lot of us were worried would never happen, and having rereleases of characters include something new and interesting. I really hope this signifies a new start of sorts for the line because it really feels like they kicked things into second gear!
|
I'm most excited about the Retro Morph Power Rangers. The new head sculpts and mold changes look great, if on the chunky side.
I fondly remember picking up the black ranger at my local grocery store as a child. I think it was $8 at the time. Crossing my fingers that Trini will look good! |
