If that's legit, that's actually really awesome that they're releasing the whole team in one set.

Makes me think they'll do the same for MMPR sometime after Black get released. Would be an easy way to get sales for the Stone Canyon Trio.

They already did confirm that Rita will have her own standalone release at some point in the future, but it will be without some of the extras seen in the 2-Pack.

Actually heck, what room do I have to complain at all? Of the Psychos I'd only want one, and I feel either Red or Pink wears the mold the best; and there's gonna be so many cheap Psycho Reds on the aftermarket now! Bring it on!

I'm super down for a complete team 5-pack. No biggie. Just gonna sell my single release blue and the red from the LG two-pack if the accessories are the same.

Not gonna lie I hate this. Because of this I doubt Black, Pink and Yellow are gonna get individual releases, and it sets a dangerous precedent that any team deemed not particularly popular/profitable could get 1 or 2 single pack releases and then the rest just as a team pack.

I do totally understand the disappointment that they're doing this. It's a bit of shaft to people who were buying them as they came out. Even to me. I can see how it's souring. But looking at how poorly Blue sold based on his ridiculous $5 discounted price at Gamestop and eventual "add him to your order for $1", it's likely that Hasbro couldn't find a retail partner willing to take the other 3 as exclusives whether in single or 2-pack form. This set is very likely something that was necessary to even get the rest of team released.

I guess part of my willingness to accept it is that they've done this kind of switcheroo so many times with their other lines as well. That's just me though, I'm desensitized, I'm like the perfect mark for this kind of thing now :lol

The thing that really bugs me about this is that Psycho Red was already in a 2-pack with Lost Galaxy Red, who hasn't seen a single-carded release and we don't know if or when he ever will.

Meaning if you want Lost Galaxy Red and if you want a full-team a Psychos, you can't avoid buying Psycho Red twice unless you go through the secondary market, which doesn't make any sense for Hasbro.

I really hope this doesn't become a trend where Hasbro will release one or two characters from a team, just to release the full team less than a year later. It'd be one thing if the Psychos were hard to find, but Red and Blue are both still readily available through many avenues.

We're just over a year into the line and it's already happening, so I genuinely wouldn't be surprised. I know the Psychos are different as they're villains and not an actual "team" in a representing a series sense, but some of those less-loved Disney seasons? Could definitely see the same thing happening.

You're very likely right there. I imagine a situation where we get single releases of like Dino Thunder White, Red, & Black, then the turn around of a 5-pack with yellow and blue i ncluded. I can see it happening, and I can't say that I'm in love with the idea. But I do fully expect more things like that to happen as well.

The situation where I'd probably lose my cool though, is after all this time and all these releases, the only way to get like a standard non-shielded MMPR Black Ranger and the proper season 1 Green Ranger, is to buy a team-pack. That's really pushing it after they've released the whole rest of the team. If something like that happened I'd be hard pressed to be positive about it.

I doubt that'll happen considering Black was already leaked as part of the next wave, and Green, well, it's Green, so he'll sell tons all on his own regardless.

The only other team I could maybe possibly see this sort of thing happening to anytime soon would be Beast Morphers, considering even accounting for leaks, Yellow and Silver still aren't available yet and BM is almost over.

Really hoping that won't be the case though.

The double dips are good for people who didn't get the original release.
If you didn't get Zedd before, the upcoming two pack is good. Rita seems to be positioned as special for that 2 pack. So early adopters who can't wait can get Rita in Aug?

Though here it stings more because it's two figures and I think the price is going to be for 5 figures.

I think going forward they should do whole teams/couples first and then the solo release.

Of course if they also announce single B/P/Y are going in winter though then that would be bad either.
