Well, there's our In Space team completed! Zhane looks great IMO

I believe that now makes 3 teams that have fully been completed. MMPR, IS, and Psycho.

Zeo and A-Squad SPD, too. And TMNT

Zeo as well.

And if the leaks pan out, the core Dino Charge team would be done, too. There would also be quite a few teams that only need one or two members.

Oh?? Where can I see such leaks

Here's what's been rumored:

Wave 11:

Dino Fury Red
Dino Charge Pink
Wild Force Lunar Wolf Ranger
Unknown Machine Empire character from Zeo

Then everything else:

Lost Galaxy Green
Wild Force Blue
Dino Thunder Yellow
Some version of MMPR Black
Dino Charge Blue
Dino Fury Green
Beast Morphers Yellow
Wild Force Jindrax
Wild Force Red with Cycle
In Space Blue with Glider
Time Force Green with Cycle

Oooh my word.

Okay, not anything here that particularly hugely interests me personally; but I'm VERY glad to see the direction this line is going. This is a vast improvement over what's been going on recently, this is awesome what they're covering

Agreed!

It seems like they're rounding out a lot of teams. Even the new ones they're starting like Wild Force are gonna have at least 3 members from the jump. And we finally get another Time Force ranger to go with Wes.

Yeah; looking at the direction they're going I also imagine most individual Rangers not here will be in 2-packs and the like. Very curious to see where this goes.

Where does this come from anyhow? Seems both LC and TF Generations got hit by gigaleaks for next year. Hasbro's gotta be pretty unhappy right now

These leaks come from LightningFigPR, who has a pretty good track record.

There's apparently also going to be a Lightning Collection MMPR Megazord and Dragonzord as well. Also a few role play items as well.

The leaks are a result of the retailers putting up codes into their system that get deciphered. Unless they want to punish Target/Walmart. Hasbro will suck it up.

If they really want to keep something secret they'd keep it on Pulse or work with BBTS/Dorkside. Though Gamestop seems good at keeping secrets.

I think Hasbro is probably fine with it as long as stuff like PRIS Silver and such don't happen. Nothing tangible finding it's way online. Even then as long as it's not Disney MCU stuff, no one is breathing down their necks.

now the entire in sapce team will be complete.

So I just got Andros in and he missing the gold paint on the chest and the helmet won’t go on the peg.

Idk if I should keep it or not but I getting really tired of this crap with hasbro. They can’t seem to do nothing right with the lightning line and there mess up figures. Just glad I won’t be collecting that many to much trouble to deal with there better toy lines out there.

Helmet - Hot(boiling) water. Just something you need to do with plastic toys from time to time.

Missing logo - There are going to be paint errors in mass production. But yeah return/exchange it.


I'm quite enjoying the Phantom Ranger figure. DC Green also came in but Gamestop is slouching on Zeo Yellow.

Wave 11 (I think that's right) confirmed:

Wild Force Lunar Wolf Ranger
Dino Charge Pink
Dino Fury Red
Zeo Cog (comes with Zeo Blue tonfas)

Them using Dino Charge Pink to update the female body mold makes me really hope they go back and update their other female figures eventually. Would love to have a better Ranger Slayer figure.

I definitely wish they'd saved their multiple MMPR Pink re-issues until after this, now! Still, it absolutely gives hope going forward. Especially for certain fan favourites like TimePink and Dino Fury Green

Pre-ordered Dino Fury Red, solely so it can stand in as Ryusoul Red in my collection. Shame the sword and the morpher aren't fully painted

The blade of the sword will be painted at the very least. They specifically pointed out in the announcement that they used a chrome paint for it.

I missed the stream. Did they mention painting in the red on the blade? Because that's missing in the promo pics

They did not, unfortunately. So that particular part of the design is most likely gonna be missing.

I did feel something was missing! Bit of a shame especially with how well painted and crisp the rest of the figure is. The sword still looks great without the red line though so it's not the worst thing in the world

Does anyone know where Inspace Silver went up for preorder?

It hasn't yet. You can only get it by importing from foreign countries right now.

https://hasbropulse.com/products/pow...-ranger-figure

Exclusive to an American Pharmacy and a website that doesn't ship to Australia. Yay.

For real?? How many popular sixths are gonna be relegated to this

It's double dumb when they literally just got done showing how exclusives on a property like this should handled with the Wal-Mart exclusive packaging.

Also, just checked, it's not up for pre-order on Walgreen's' website yet, but they are still selling DT White so hey, maybe Space Silver will have solid circulation like White did.

Pudgy Pig is already getting a normal release as a Target exclusive! Standard Deluxe price of $31.49; he doesn't come with his food accessories but otherwise seems identical to his convention release

I found the In Space Blue/Psycho Silver two-pack & the Aisha/Scorpina two-pack at Target and I noticed a QC issue.

They had two of the Aisha/Scorpina packs, and one had unpainted "tiger eyes" on the Yellow Ranger helmet while another had correctly painted "eyes".

So Pudgy Pig is up now on BBTS and Entertainment Earth.
What was honestly the purpose of the con exclusive?

I understand taking a standard release and making a variant with better or alternate paint apps. Hasbro showed had plenty at the con.

But Pudgy Pigs figure was generally unchanged. The only difference is the color of the flesh but that might have been the prototype only.

Did they really think people really wanted that lunchbox?

Hasbro's releases confuse me. They confuse me because I don't see an incentive to double for the customer. Why they aren't announcing things people really want to buy.

Same question with why IS blue with glider was put up for pre-order when the figure and Psycho silver pack was already put up only a few months prior. Its like they want to mold reuse so bad they are intentionally shooting themselves in the foot.

finally for my collection in my display.

Pudgy Pig, A-Squad Yellow, and In Space Pink have been found stateside in Illinois. Only a matter of time before they pop up nationally.

Saw a A-Squad yellow in Gamestop in Chicago. Though I ordered one on BBTS, so waiting on that. Still haven't seen Zeo Yellow/Space Pink(or the whole wave) in stores.

Got Space Blue/Psycho Silver.
The first Space Blue I got from Amazon had a bad helmet. The replacement was fine.

The Phantom Ranger figure looks really good ngl.

Got the metallics and Pudgy pig in today.

Just a quick assessment

Pudgy Pig

I'm still perplexed why they even bothered with a con version and honestly don't waste the money on the con. Waste it on this normal release. I think this figure is the best of these monster wave figures. It's height similar to the size of the monster on the live action show to the scale of the figures Hasbro produces.

Also I'm having a lot of fun with the articulation of the mouth. It can house quite a few things in there while closed.


Metallics

Sans pink, all the helmets have been noticeably improved. Finally having an accurate MMPR Red helmet is very nice. Black has been redesigned. Blue and Yellow have been tweaked. All the figures have visible necks now.

My 3rd picture has the metallic red helmet on the original body. In hand the difference between the shades of red isn't that stark. The helmet just seems darker. Now the same can't exactly be said for the others but you still it's nice if you want to do that.

Then there is the Rocky head. This looks like the actor. It would be nice to have his zeo haircut but I don't know where they could sneak that in even with Ninjetti Red.


Of course the caveat of all this is Hasbro should have had these changes prior to releasing the first figures. On the one hand I'd say get them but then Pink doesn't have the corrections found in the Kat 2Pack(And might have for the April figure in the TMNT set). Based on leaks we could potentially see a new Mmpr Black and the Sentry's have the new helmet sans the mouth plate.


Also glitter everywhere from the boxes.

Got to ask, where did you get the little trash cans? They're scaled perfectly!

More Metallics





My own canisters

Love the color coded stands!

Space Silver

Finally after being a no show in the Legacy line.

TMNT RED and Foot Soldier
