Ranger Slayer really looks bad ass. I am disappointed there is no unmasked head, but then again I don't display any of them with an unmasked head so... I guess I'm not missing much. Still would have been cool to see.

I assume Billy will have the same diamond pattern as Red Ranger. If not, even if it looks better, I will be very bothered. I think that the head shown in the packaging shot captures a season 1 Billy fairly well. Let's hope that is what it looks like, and not like the weird washed out pictures. However, at least they gave us two lances. SOOO happy about that one.

Time Force Red is great. I wasn't even a Time Force fan, but this figure looks great.

Zeo Gold, easy pass as I have the SDCC pack. Nice that it comes with a Trey head, but again... I don't display the heads so I don't care. Still, nice that they did do a Trey head for those that want it.

As for the dagger, I think it looks fine. I like that you can actually play the tune, that was a nice touch. Frankly, they HAD to make it different from the Bandai one, so I get why they added the glow effect. It is a neat idea and gives people something different that already have the other one. I think they knew they couldn't beat it, so they just went in another direction.

What sucks is that this is all they had to show from Lightning Collection. I was hoping for a monster being shown or Alpha 5, or something other than rangers. Granted, the rangers shown look great, but still. I want some diversity.

Will the Dragon Dagger play the actual tunes from the show? The songs used for the Legacy and original versions sounded terrible and were inaccurate.

Someone said Zeo Gold is missing paint apps, but all I've noticed at first glance is the blade piece on the Golden Power Staff is missing the same paint apps as the SDCC version. What else is missing? Nice that they included Trey's head, but I wish the staff was the closed version. Does the blade piece actually slide or is it one molded piece?

I'm very glad MMPR Blue has both versions of his weapon. But aren't the coins on all of the weapons supposed to be gold?

Ranger Slayer looks great, but the lack of an unmasked head kills my interest. I was looking forward to having an evil Kim to go with evil Tommy.

I know the diamonds on the previous figures were inaccurate, but I'm going to be really annoyed if they "fix" it for MMPR Blue. I'd rather the figures were consistent with each other, even if that means they're not entirely consistent with costumes they're based on.

As a Ranger Slayer user in Battle for The Grid and Legacy Wars, this makes me really really happy.
Instabuy for me...
Also, She isn't really "evil" but oh well...

Weird...I must have felt that TimeRanger Red or TimeForce Red was coming because hu...I was rewatching both Time Force and TimeRanger...>.>
That Wes head is so so so good. Though I feel that the helmet is too big...Might be the picture.

I'm still on the fence of picking Gold Zeo/Trey, here is the reason, my Gold Zeo Ranger has a pretty nasty defect on its left leg so maybe buying this one might be a thing.

As for Billy, well, it was the last one of the MMPR bunch that was missing to be, so, instabuy aswell. I might get another one to make a Dragon Shield Blue Ranger (even if it's not canon).

Well, that will be the first wave I will entirely buy, nice job Hasbro x)

Well it's correct on the guys but the ladies got a skinnier one. That probably had more to do with working with the size they had vs being a mistake. Not everything can translate with their proportions.

The figures out on display makes it seem like this happened.

The prototype had the skinnier diamond.
The production version has the wide one.

Time Force.....YES!

But the headsculpt is just okay. Same with the Jason Red Ranger. Red Ranger from MMPR and Time Force are my favorites, but their face scans have been slightly below average.

Called it

It was a 50/50 chance.

Something I'm realising is that with Ryusoulger being next year and LC still having MMPR and Dino Charge ongoing; we're in for a year of a lot of Dino rangers...

Yeah, even moreso if they decide to do Dino Thunder. Which they likely will sooner rather than later to keep the Tommy train going.

While going to pre-order wave 5, I realized I never actually pre-orded wave 4. Most of them are still available on Amazon, but MMPR Yellow isn't on amazon or Hasbro Pulse. Is there anywhere I can still find her without resorting to my luck at brick and mortar?

Entertainment Earth has her for pre-order for $22.

Thanks to some new listings in Walmart computers, we have tentatively confirmed 3 of the figures in Wave 6:

*Zeo Red
*MMPR Black
*In Space Yellow

Tommy and MMPR are hardly a surprise, but they're starting off a team with a girl?! Dang. This line is turning around fast. And hey, In Space! They're really wanting to just shove it in Bandai's faces. Should be nice to see those great suits done justice.

Let's hope the last figure is another from a pre-established team though; I'd really like to see more than MMPR getting towards completion. SPD, Lost Galaxy or Time Force would all be great

Will be more than happy to add MMPR Black to my collection. Gotta get every form of mah boi Zack.

Makes me wonder who the 4th figure will be though. Dunno why but something tells me it'll be either a villain or a comic character.

But assuming they're not doing another new team, I'd ideally I'd want either SPD Green or Dino Charge Gray.

Also, now that we have rep for every one of the classic MM Rangers, Hasbro needs to deliver unto us what we all REALLY want...

A Bulk & Skull 2-Pack :lolol

In Space was one of the teams I for sure want to complete, so hope those code name interpretations are right for her!

And of course will need Zeo Red to continue to make progress on that team.

I really hope the 4th figure is King Mondo to go with Zeo Red.

Its too bad they dont do 6 figure waves or BaFs.

Yeah let's not. BaFs would take away half the accessories we get with figure, and having six per wave would take up more cost as well.

I was so happy when Dragon Stars dropped the BaF gimmick; The figures really started improving from then on.

Sorry for the double post, but alot of people are claiming the final figure of wave 6 is Emperor Grumm. Which if true means I'll be buying 2 figures in one wave for the first time.

If it is Grumm, that would be insanely awesome

Really digging these reveals.

MMPR Black of course completes our core MMPR team, plus we have the White Ranger for later seasons. We'd just need an MMPR accurate Green Ranger to finish that team.

Zeo Red brings us halfway through completion of Zeo. We'd just need Green, Yellow and Pink to be done with that team.

In Space Yellow is the most exciting choice for me here. Not only are they kicking off our In Space team, but they're doing it with a female ranger. Females have historically been the missing Rangers from nearly any PR/SS line, so starting a team off with one should mean smooth sailing for getting the other Space rangers.

Emperor Grumm is the big oddball here, not because I'm not beyond excited for him (I love anything SPD) but because it's the first non-MMPR villain we're getting that isn't a Dark Ranger (like Psycho Red or Blaze)

I'm still waiting for Yellow Beast Morphers and Silver Beast Morphers...I would like to complete the team >.>

Lightning Collection Megazords are now a thing.

2nd half? Does that just mean second half of the year?

That's cool news for everyone. Me personally though I already have the SRCs of all the Megazords I care about.

...Unless they do one of the Hyper Force Megazord in the future. I'd totally throw money down for that.

OG team almost complete.

Why the Dekared head?

Either way this is just awesome

Why not SPD Red head?

Just realised that with the In Space Yellow leak, LC's covering the same parts of the Zordon era as Legacy.

"Yeah it went MMPR, Zeo, uhhhh there was something in-between but that's not important, and then In Space with the Psycho Rangers!"

Turbo might not have been the best series, but I'd absolutely love to get the Rangers from that show. I just always really dug the helmet designs of that series.

Yep, Turbo designs are the best thing about the show. It's highly unlikely, but I kinda hope that a hypothetical LC Turbo Rangers would have chrome parts.

Would love for Turbo Blue or TJ Turbo Red to happen, but we all know the first Turbo figure is most likely gonna be Tommy Red.

I banked on Zeo Gold stand alone being Jason.
I know we like to say there's a Tommy fixation but I feel that only applies to MMPR.

So your Hasbro. You already got Three Tommy figures with two more that are exclusively Tommy with DT and Zeo. Do you do a Turbo Red Tommy head or do you use the first Black Red Ranger?

Of course they would just do the gold ranger deal. Sell a Tommy Turbo online and a Tj in store.

Whatever they do is going to steer what the whole team would be.

Talking of heads and Zeo and online exclusives, I've recently had a thought that they might do an exclusive 2-pack of Zeo Yellow with Aisha MMPR Yellow -- a sort of 'passing on the legacy' thing, and as a way to get out Aisha since the other MMPR replacements became Zeo rangers. ... also as a way to sell more MMPR figures :p

Personally I see them having Aisha come after Zack, and then doing the rest of the MMPR season 2-3 cast.

...And then at the very end giving us MMPR Green to make serious bank on reusing a by that time older mold.

Just picked up the blue Zeo Ranger and Red SPD Ranger.

Pleasantly surprised that one of the Red SPD Ranger's gun actually has a hinge to move the handle.

Wish the blue Zeo came with a collapsed baton to place in his holster though.

So, since the Zeo Rangers hardly use the baton, I decided that I prefered to have it holstered. I wasn't going to display him with it extrended anyways, so I modified it so it is in it's holstered state.

That holster is just not built for the sword mode. With Shadow Ranger the sword is at an angle but the Zeo Pod Sword being straight doesn't work in the long run.

I take it by now everyone's heard about Hasbro's' new Snake Eyes figure? I honestly think it should be the new standard for all of their figures. The hips and waist especially should be used in the Lightning Collection line. The only thing I would change is instead of having an ab crunch, keep using the awesome diaphragm joint that the LC figures currently have. You'd be able to get a ton of great and natural looking posing done out of it, ontop of not having the ugliness that ab-crunches tend to lead to.

i can not wait for the LC dragon dagger to hit stores because i am so going to buy it
