One of two things really.

If a price isn't given at the time that the information hits the company computers, the system itself may assign a price to the item (so that the listing doesn't show up on any error reports) and will base the price on the last assortment. In this case, it would have been the Tigerzord and the Dragon Dagger, both priced at $79.99.

The Legacy Black and Gold Megazord is under a different category (so to speak) because it's billed as an "exclusive" where as the Legacy line is a "line exclusive", not an "item exclusive" ... it gets really confusing the more you look at it.

The other way? Bandai wasn't sure on the price at the time and gave it the $80 listing when the information was distributed.

I'm beyond excited to see what Bandai has in-store for us. Being that the Thunder Megazord and the Falconzord have not released yet, I've been hearing that they have been fluctuating in price a little bit; which is always a good thing! But until they've officially hit the shelves, that's when we'll know for sure. Even though Bandai has focused on MMPR for the past 3 years now, once it's time to venture off into other seasons, I know that they'll top of the OG season with a bang of some sortl I'm sure!

Other than that, I can't wait to purchase the upcoming Legacy items! :)

Yeah and that luscious gold plated chrome or whatever the hell it is that has lasted largely intact on my 20 year old sample. Meanwhile the legacy version has that bland bronze or tan or copper or whatever sans plating.

Unless the Legacy one has enough diecast to mortally wound someone in self defense, I see no reason why it should be $60, paint over stickers will not justify that. And let's face it, the main reason people want it is because a Legacy Falconzord release implies that Legacy Shogun and Ninja Megazords are on the way. Hell I don't even think the Legacy Tigerzord is worth $60.

It getting to the point where Legacy zords are getting less die cast and shiny paint. The falconzord look cheap with the gold color they choose.

Yes it looks cheaper than the original. Let's hope that's just a prototype and that the final production one is shiny as we expect. Not some Mcdonalds happy meal version.

Your optimism is cute.
Isn't stuff on show floors like this supposed to be hyped up and look better than the mass release version?

Who the hell knows man, sometimes that's the case, sometimes it isn't. We are months away from the Falcon release so there still may be time.

I have a strong feeling that falconzord is finish and would be release soon. But you know what if it looks like crap I won't waste my money on it that's all and your comment "Not some Mcdonalds happy meal version made my day" hahahahahaha.

I guess we can all pray and hope Bandai notices all the negativity towards it and at least gives it a wonderful new coat of paint (Since I'm doubtful we'll see any mold redesigns)...

And with much, MUCH less Diecast bringing the price down further.
