Power Rangers Lightning Collection Alpha 5 & Zordon Gallery

It looks like the lightning bolt is molded into the chest, but that's a quick and dirty remold; add in a few accessories, call it a "Command Centre/Power Chamber Pack" and voila, a new release with minimum effort! Perfect for the stinks.

Everyone thinking Alpha 6 would include an accessory pack when we all know he'd include the viewing globe.

Yeah Zordon's basically whatever. Glad to have him, don't think I'd miss him too much if all we got was an Alpha.

I was also really surprised by how blue he was though! For some reason when I picture him his limbs are much darker; don't know how that changed in my mind over time.

I think it's just because, well, he's always in the command center which -is- dark and only has light sources from the controls and Zordon. Just about every appearance of the guy he was in the dark, so his 'actual' colours don't quite match up with how everyone remembers him. Always one of those interesting things when it comes to live-action media!

Alpha 5's body suit was actually black. The "armor" on his legs in blue with gold on the molded bits. His arms are made of tubing which is dark blue.

Alpha 6's body suit is all blue and has a different texture to it. It's ribbed, like the arms. The chest piece is remolded as is the leg "armor" and the hands are different. I believe the bits on his arms are different as well. The feet, head, and shoulder pads are the same, but they are chromed out with no black panel lining. Alpha 6, if done right, would need a fair bit of remolding.

Also, while i do like the base figure of Alpha 5, the paint leaves out a fair bit of detailing. All of the molded detail is there though. I just did a repaint of mine and it looks much better. It's just a matter of coloring in between the lines in most cases.

I really really like these figures. Alpha's colors are super nice, and I find Zordon very amusing for some reason.
