Probably once they're done with all the Rangers, or maybe as con exclusives. Regardless, seeing as I already have the SRC figures of the original Megazord and the SPD Megazord, I'm personally good either way.

Sorry for the double post, but I figured you'd all like to know that you can now order Dragon Shield Black off the Walgreens website. I certainly didn't know until today.

With... all the Rangers? 0_0

That's, like... I think the count for PR is at about 200 right now. If that's the case we'll be waiting on Megazords for a long, long time.

Exactly I don't think that would be practical. I'm speculating something will be announced in 2020. I think if they really want to top Bandai America's Legacy line in the megazord department they should release what never was: Shogun Megazord. This time no zord builder ports and is more articulated than anything made by Bandai America. Possibly even releasing a Ninja Megazord that's better equip to handle the Legacy Ninja Falconzord and has better articulation.

I think we'll get 6-inch Megazords in the Lightning Collection line before we get any sort of Lecacy-esque combining Megazords, tbh.

Probably but doesn't mean we won't get both announced relatively close to each other. They'll likely announce Beast-X Megazord or Dino Megazord in the Lightning collection as a standard figure for the next wave. Then sometime in 2020 probably announce the line's first combining megazord. Which one would it be who knows but Shogun is a fan favorite that has yet to have a re-release.

Actually, thinking about it, I could see them making Megazords as technically a part of the line, but separated off as sort of their own thing, probably for a higher price point of $40+ or something. Similar to what they did with Reinhardt in the Overwtach Ultimate line.

Could be. Either way, I'm extremely curious to see what Hasbro has in store for the collectors' market Megazords.

I don't think I'll be able to resist a great Shogun Megazord, no matter what form it comes in.

It would be interesting to see what kind of higher end stuff Hasbro does with the megazords. I have the original Shogun megazord. I would love to have a nicer re-release of it with paint and decal accuracy. If Hasbro really wants to make fans happy they'll make it compatible with the Legacy Ninja Falconzord.
