Are there any pictures of the auto-morphin' reissues? I saw only a back of card image elsewhere.

So far the only new continuous Legacy items on the horizon is the Zeonizer, Gold Ranger Staff and Green MMPR helmet.

As for the B&G re-releases they're just a way to make a quick buck. They already have the molds, a simple repaint at the factory is easier than coming up with new merc.

All the time and money wasted on these things and if they'd been left we'd probably have Legacy Tor, Legacy Shogunzords and a complete set of Power Weapons by now.

I'm telling you that Legacy fans aren't united in what they want.

Several people want Bandai to move on from MMPR all together and make the different seasons' Megazords, others like you want every zord in the MMPR line remade.

Some want more figures, others role play weapons or Megazords.

And I've seen people in the past who wanted articulated non combining zords and Megazords.

That's one thing I give BoA mad props on, their Legacy Zords have been spot on to the source material.

EDIT: Speaking of, someone on RangerBoard actually talked to a BoA rep at the con and the guy did say that the Legacy Megazord line is still going and (Thank Zordon!) Legacy Shogun Megazord is currently in the works, so hopefully fingers crossed for a Toy Fair unveiling.

We pretty much had S1 of MMPR covered minus the Power Weapons, S2 was pretty much covered minus Tor and Serpentera and S3 is pretty much covered minus Shogunzords. Now they're still trying to move on to Zeo while still releasing new items from MMPR like Legacy Zords and Mini Busts?

Most of the Legacy fans have been united and vocal in what we want. Tor, Shogunzords, Power Weapons and then a move to Zeo.

Besides if they're going to release 85% of the iconic MMPR range it just feels stupid to not fully finish it.

I don't personally mind it because it IS a quick cash grab...and the proceeds from those sales are probably partially funneled into the budget for the next non-B&G release.

And the B&G Ultra Megazord is actually quite gorgeous in hand, BTW.
