as with many Hasbro lines, the Lightning Collection will be undergoing a price increase in 2022. The new pricepoints-


Single Figures: $24.99
Two Packs: $54.99
Deluxe Figures: $33.99
Helmets: $99.99

If the price is going up to $25, then I'm gonna start comparing their stuff to NECA or McFarlane in terms of quality.

Yeah, I'm sticking to Reds, Sixths and antagonists from here on.

Lightning Collection already suffers from regular issues Hasbro's other collector lines don't deal with nearly as much. Inaccurate decos, missing paint, missing accessories, inconsistent detailing, etc.

I know the increase is an inflation thing, but that's just gonna make these issues even more inexcusable than they already are considering I can get better quality figures at the same price point from a literal sister line like Marvel Legends or G.I. Joe Classified.

How's the QC? I was opening the Andros/Astronema two-pack and Astronema's left forearm broke off before I got the figure free from the plastic!

A little peeved right now!

QC on Hasbro figures in general is a bit of a coin flip. I've personally been fairly lucky(only like, one bad one out of the handful I've bought), but you can easily find many other horror stories, even from some members of this board.

Corrected A Squad Pink Helmet.

So I'm weighing up getting MMPR Ninja Black for the Toadally Awesome factor - what are the odds on it getting a slight drop in price from the ?28 asking to something more like a regular LC?

Well it's a Target/Pulse Exclusive, so... not very high, I'm afraid.

Oh well, the gods of buying merch truly are capricious with their distribution channels these days.

More MMPR

Good to see that Trini-Red is using the updated female body. If the figures based on this issue of Go Go are all gonna be 2-Packs, I gotta wonder who the sixth figure will be?

Seems like exciting news for Zyuranger fans, since this gives them yellow on a male body

wow i can get the male yellow one.

Those are nice, but these pinless designs now make the originals look inferior.

I wonder if we'll see re-releases of the main team with these improvements.

Yay, Male yellow Ranger!
I’m interested in this 2 pack.
it makes MMPR Pink and Yellow obsolete with those single jointed elbows though.
I wonder if we’ll see an updated mold for these 2.
I can’t help but be frustrated…this is what we should have gotten since the start.

I would like to see Hasbro do female versions of the MMPR Black, Blue, Green, and White Rangers. Hell, Hasbro should do female versions of EVERY male ranger from every season, not just MMPR.

Anyone else feel like this line is dying maybe? No reveals around NYTF time whereas all the other Hasbro brands got livestreams at least...

I feel like the least they could do is release Lightning figs of the rest of the Dino Fury cast seeing as that's the current show. I guess maybe Hasbro feels like they got caught holding the bag if they're not going to be able to get Toei shows after Ryusoulger

I think things just got delayed a lot due to multiple real-world issues. The latest LC wave and Transformers Legacy wave 1 got revealed at the same convention and we haven't heard any word on a new wave for either since. But we do have leaked listings for upcoming waves for both...

Fingers crossed for LC Dino Knight Red someday!

Blame COVID-19.

Wal-Mart has an exclusive set of the latest Wave up for pre-order here.

Comes in a unique box with all four figures, with each figure itself coming with unique box art to match. Pretty cool little exclusivity bonus, I think.

Interesting that they just randomly threw in the Japanese text for Power Ranger on those boxes.

I want this just for the solid colored screen accurate red ranger helmet

Sure be nice if the Red Sentry would actually come out. Not sure how Canada is so well stocked but the US is still up in the air. Same with Space Silver.


Shredder is nice, though mine have some loose feet and upper torso.

Can't wait to get my Green Ranger Shredder. Especially if someone makes a wirecloth cape for him that I can order.

Wishful thinking on my part, but if this is how Hasbro handled exclusives from now on, I'd be fine with that.

coming in 2023- WILD ACCESS!

Surging shark!

feel my bite.

Something to note when it comes to this announcement:

Since we have been feeling the love today from you, #RangerNation, we wanted to share a little preview of what's to come: Wild Force Blue! And stick with us in 2023, because we're shifting into high gear...

A tease for the next season, perhaps?

I don't think Blue here is for 2023, just the teased line

never give up.

Cool to see you got the more accurate version with the silver boots. A shame about the gold stripes still being misnumbered though.

howling wolf in the moon.

No it's 6 stripes, just like it should be.
So far we have not seen any silverboots with 5 stripes. So if you get silver boots, you're good.

It's the holster none of them have.

And that completes the team! Surprised they waited so long on it

oh yeah i'll going to get all the metallic rangers.
