One issue I just realised with Zeo Blue that he shares with Dino Charge Red: while the arsenal he comes with is very solid (and seemingly well done), he doesn't come with his signature weapon.
The MMPRs and Psychos have been very good about coming with their signature weapons (Psycho Blue's axe, MMPR Red's power sword), and the LG and BM rangers don't have any individual signature weapons to worry about. So this is just a shame for the Zeo and DC rangers really. |

OKAY NEVER MIND, I'M WRONG, HE DOES COME WITH THE TONFAS
That means he has a WAY greater loadout than I think any individual LC figure so far barring stuff like the Jason 2-pack! Looking at it all in all:- - civilian head - extra pair of hands - effect part - sword - gun - two tonfas That's... incredible. Other good things to note: it appears his pairs of hands are for once matching; one pair of fists, one pair of weapon-holding hands. The colour guide also notes that his gold is the exact same one used on Zeo Gold -- which, okay, makes sense; but still super nice to see considering how nice the gold was on that figure. |

Yeah... Wow. I'm gonna have to get all of Zeo. Blue will be an instant buy.

Apparently, LC figures starting with Wave 4 are going to go from $20 to $21.50.
Seeing as Zeo Blue comes with more than previous figures and is more comprehensive (his two pairs of hands are also matching), this seems to be "pay more for more stuff"; and is directly going towards a bigger budget. So I'm very cool with that. The kicker is that it's -still- less than Legacy, lol. |

I was bummed that Dino Charge red didn’t come with his Trex smasher weapon, but it’s great to see that Blue III still gets his.
Plus now he can also double as Rocky MMPR Red! |

Even if they instantly dismiss the questions, at least asking them helps Hasbro realise what the fans would like.
It's a shame ZeoRangerV didn't ask if they plan to do Lightning Collection MMPR Red Ranger with a larger white diamond on his chest. It just doesn't look right. What I am shocked out with the reveal of wave 4 is that we have to wait until Fall 2020 for them. That seems like a LONG time between waves. Waves 1 - 3 all hit within 9 months (wave 3 being slated for December). Plus we had a fair amount of exclusives in there too. Now there will be a 9 month wait between wave 3 and 4? This, combined with the price increase, makes me think that the line isn't doing as well as was expected, but still doing well enough to continue on. Seems Hasbro will be doing smaller runs which increase the price per figure. However, Zeo Blue does come with a fair amount of stuff. Far more than the Legacy version did. I do wish the pod sword came in a holstered mode, but I think that will be an issue with many side arms throughout this line. So many of the power rangers weapons have alt forms, but at least Hasbro works them in when they can, like with the power axe. |

Not LC's problem, but I really wish the Zeo suits wore their morphers. Otherwise he looks amazing.

Apparently they're wrong and it was repeatedly reaffirmed at MCM that fall 2020 is the release window.
