Unbelievable, I literally went through hell with Target over these figures. After a while, it wasn't even about the figures anymore, it was the principle that the store screwed up, then I was lied to by online support, or store was lying, and no one did anything to rectify it until way after the fact. It's a very long story to tell, but the incompetence on all fronts is astounding.
Sure, they gave me a $45 gift card, but it's a moot point now, and I am no longer a fan of Target. Well, there is Hasbro Pulse but so much for their "Get it before the stores do" slogan for joining their website. Zedd is sold out and I cancelled my pre-order for the other 3 since I got them at a store a day before they ship from the site. If they were shopping out today like they're supposed to. Also,. I know of ppl who pre-ordered other items from their site and their items didn't ship until a week or so after the "guaranteed to ship" date. So I guess they'd be okay as a last resort if a pre-order item doesn't sell out, but aside from that there is no real incentive to shop from there. :/ On the topic at hand, I love what Hasbro did with figures. Sure, MMPR anything is a given but my personal favorite in the set is the SPD Shadow Ranger. The sculpt, proportions, and paint detail are all spot on. I noticed that they did not paint the sculpted badges on his shoulder, nor the little bits of armor on his fingers, but that is forgivable (Zedd's finger armor isn't painted either. The detail on all of them is Amazing, and I can not wait to see what we get in later assortments. I'll buy them all. |

My Lightning Collection pre-orders from Hasbro Pulse have shipped, and apparently in three separate shipments. Last time Hasbro Pulse did this part of the order arrived half a week after the first part. Hoping these three will all arrive together

Tracking number updated with an estimated delivery date. Apparently it's going to take 10 days. Not arriving till the second. Guess you get what you pay for with free shipping. Glad I at least got pulse premium for free

Have Zedd and Goldar pre-ordered at gamestop and just ordered a Shadow Ranger off someone selling on Ebay for less than from Hasbro Pulse's total with shipping. After seeing in-hand pics and comparisons, I'm very excited.

Really not digging their site so far, and I probably lost my premium membership by cancelling the pre-order for the 3 rangers but what is the sense in having it if store are getting them first? That was my biggest incentive for joining. Next, no special offers so far, and they've been up for a few months now. Worse comes to worse for Lord Zedd, I do have him pre-ordered on GameStop so it isn't like they're the only game in town that can offer their own products. |

My Amazon order shipped early! Got my White Ranger yesterday!
This little guy blew away my expectations. I can tell I'm going to be sinking a lot of money into this line. |

I just bought Dino Charge Red today at Target. No issue with the purchase so it appears the street date has been lifted.

I just got my Shadow Ranger from Amazon today.
Is it just me or are the paint apps exceptionally terrible? Paint smearing, bleeding, missing in places. And then the shin guard looks like the paint is just caked on. The ear of the helmet is severely malformed/ All this is weird considering how Marvel Legends have been. I really want this line to be successful and SPD has some of my favorite suit designs, but I'd hate for this to be it. Last edited by BurndtJamz; 05-02-2019 at 08:29 PM.. |

Saw these at Wal-mart today. They're even nicer than the Sentai Figuarts I've seen! Here's hoping the next batch has characters I'm interested in.
