Realistic proportions. Modern articulation without cut corners. Worthwhile accessories. This is what the Legacy line wish it could have been.
Bandai lost PR due to their own stubbornness and gross incompetence. The fact that Hasbro was able to knock it out of the park on their first swing shows how horribly mismanaged the brand has been under them. |

I'll admit that the new White Ranger looks good, but I feel underserved!
I wanted something big and real and different, and a new MMPR White Ranger isn't the answer to those desires! Maybe I was expecting too much, and maybe there are definitely some advantages to this line that I am not seeing, but I was expecting to be "WOWED!!!" beyond belief! Not feeling it by enough! |

We've yet to see the Beast Morphers line, and any other lines, let alone full wave lineups for Lightning, and more. Plus we haven't seen whatever they plan for the Zords yet either. So the wow is coming, but it may take some time. It is still an acquisition that's less than a half a year old. |

If I had to make a couple nitpicks on the new lightning collection it’s that the neck on the White Ranger Suit looks a little too skinny and I wish the suit was a little less baggy. If the suit was slightly more form fitting I think it woukd really pop, but as it stands, this may be the best Power Rangers line to date.
Bandai America really flopped on what should have been one of the easiest action figure lines to produce. Other than newly sculpted gloves, hands, feet, helmets and weapons, for the most part you get to reuse the same body over and over again. This is a toy company’s dream to have a figure line that allows for so many cost saving measures per figure while still being true to source material, it’s no wonder that they are able to splurge with phot-realistic headsculpts and awesome paint applications. The only question now is if sales will allow Hasbro to go through every ranger team. I could care less about the villains as long as I had every team of rangers that fit in together on the shelf. That was another fail on behalf of Bandai America. Who needs Psycho Rangers with weapons when you still need to complete other ranger teams like Ninja Storm and Space and maybe squeeze out one other team while you’re at it like Turbo or Alien Rangers so you at least have all of the Zordon-era teams. Fingers crossed this is just the tip of the iceberg and we get a full on Marvel Legends treatment with these. P.S. I hope that we get Lighting Collection versions of Ninjor, the Blue Centurion and the Magna Defender along with a few other iconic ranger helpers down the line.

Looking at the Bandai America website and boy does it feel hollow. The only thing that feels like flagship material is Dragon Ball. Ninja Steel is still there but ehh... and since when did Tamagotchi make a comeback? Is there some tamagotchi resurgence that I am not aware of?

I’m really curious about what the rest of the wave is
