Okay, that is just sweet.

If the boxes said "TyrannoRanger" and "DragonRanger", rather then the MMPR names, I'd actually prefer these boxes to the Japanese ones. I like that picture of Dragonranger and he can actually get in that pose, unlike the pose he's in on the box of the Japanese version. Weird how the MMPR ones kept the stone detailing around the edges which fits the theme of Zyuranger more then MMPR, while the Zyuranger ones left the detailing on the stones out.

The content, however, I think that the Powerful Ranger suits are an epic accessory and missing out on them is a rip-off, even if you're not an Akibaranger fan (that big ol' blank space to the left of Dragonranger's head is sad), so I'm way, way, way happier with the Japanese releases.

The more I see of these the more my inner child and nostalgia craves them >.< Jason and Zack are two characters I'm actually really enjoying on my MMPR rewatch so maybe I'll wait to see if a black Ranger comes out and contemplate it then.

I couldn't care less about the packaging.. The toys won't be staying in the packaging for very long once I get ahold of them.

As for the missing accessories.. Again, I couldn't care less. Those Japanese only accessories have no meaning to me, as I'm American and watched the American tv show.

I'm excited for these, hopefully green ranger will hit shelves soon.

They do actually look pretty cool in person. I wish I could see the back of the packaging though, but it is covered from a wall of model kits behind it. A very un-crowd friendly wall.

You don't watch AkibaRanger? o_O

And they are only Power Rangers to me when they do have the Akiba belt and neck.

I don't watch AkibaRanger either, most of the humour was lost on me, beside a base appreciation because I'm not really a Super Sentai fan. That is why I don't care about the minuscule AkibaRanger extas or understand why people get up arms with Bluefin not including them.

Why should he?
If he's a Power Rangers fan he has no obligation to care about Akibaranger.

At least it doesn't look like they just simply slapped a sticker like with the Daizyujin release.

It will be more interesting to see how different the Dairanger Kibaranger box is compared to it's White Ranger box.

I suddenly have the urge to buy an Ultraman Gaia for the effect parts

To be fair it's probably better value to do that than just buy an effect set, which I feel are woefully overpriced for what they are.
