Looks like we've got a couple more re-runs in order; Hasbro Pulse have pre-orders up for MMPR Red and Drakkon

I like the Street Fighter x Power Rangers figures. I just hate how expensive they are and that they didn't bother giving us an unmasked head at least, given the crazy price.

I broke down and got the Chun Li one. I put the Playmates head on her.

Unfortunately, Playmates forgot to paint her sideburns so I did it for them. The mold already had the lines on there to show where the hair should have been painted.

Makes me wonder if the upcoming Jada Toys SF figures would fit on these bodies.

To use the Playmates heads, I had to do quite a bit of modification on the head to make it fit. If I get the Jada ones, I'll eave them as is to be the normal SFII versions.

Just leaked: Old figures are being renewed in the Deluxe Line under the title of "Remastered." Starting with MMPR Blue.

Whether you like the attention MMPR gets or not, this is overall a good thing, as it means that Hasbro is willing to go back to older figures and update them with the new articulations and joint setup as well as extra accessories and paint apps. I'd gladly update the few LC figures I already have if they turn out as good as some of the more recent ones we've gotten.

wow great.

I'm surprised this wasn't discussed.

Are they removing the alternative heads from the remastered line? I never really used those, as they were so inconsistent.

Also sad to see the old LC box design go away. But hey, at least Hasbro is making good on their less-plastic initiative.

There's no way to tell right now since that box image is all we got. I would be surprised, though -- it's such a big part of both the line and the image of MMPR in a lot of peoples' heads, and these figures are specifically meant to be better, premium versions of the figures flat out. I don't think it'd make sense to exclude anything the normal releases had

My friend gifted me TF Blue for my birthday. 2 down, 4 to go

Looks like I got lucky and got a copy with some good paintwork on the helmet and chest. The waist and hips are very shaky and loose though, making it less easy to pose than TF Red. Seems to be a common issue with this release. Can't really recommend it unless you get it at a discount
