Price point alone reflects the Lightning Collection being aimed at the older collectors. This isn't to say there aren't kids who aren't looking to get these, but just from price point it pretty much implies older ppl who have wallets with money in those wallets.
So Lord Drakkon is going to fly off shelves and if Hasbro is smart, he'll be a standard release figure since that is another big middle finger to BoA for making their's a Con Exclusive. I also expect secondary market prices for Legacy Drakkon to drop a bit.
What I am worried about is the line dying because of non MMPR related figures sitting on shelves and not selling.
The hardcore fans are going to buy them all, casual fans will buy the ones they know and care about. This isn't limited to MMPR. Some collectors could have been introduced to Power Rangers from one of the later shows. The kids will generally buy what's currently promoted, Beast Morphers, last are the uninformed ppl buying gifts.
So out of all that, this line is catering to the top tier, I just hope intereat isn't lost in the line due to lack of/already released all MMPR products. I will be honest, I haven't watched anything from Lost Galaxy to Wild Force, picked it back up with Dino Thunder and watched reruns of Ninja Storm during this time. Then I started losing interest with Operation Overdrive, picked it back up with Jungle Fury, but only caught episodes here and there of Samurai, Megaforce, etc... I still plan on getting each and every one I can get my hands and actually, it's giving me reason to check out older seasons.
But, point is Drakkon is a must and yeah... He will sell very well.
