Legacy Shogun Megazord reveal this weekend or riot.

That said Super Ninja Steel Megazord looks boss.

Loving that vinyl toy of the Megazord.

Whatever that Blade Bow is, I want it. Also, I wonder if the mini saws on that one sword will spin when triggered?

This con feels very underwhelming. Some of the legacy figures have gold plastic insaid of gold paint. Are they that freaking cheap bandai ugh.

I guess after they come out with the zeo morpher and gold staff I won't buy nothing else from this line ever again it ran it course.

Man those Legacy figures look great, I really want to try and get that Fighting Spirits set :T

Well, at least it is an improvement over what they had at SDCC...

Yeah but if we get shafted on the Legacy Shogun Megazord again I'm calling it a bust.

I agree, but I don't expect Bandai to show it off until Toy Fair next year. They're too busy promoting those stupid looking untransforming zords that will probably be twice the price that they are worth.

As long as we get official confirmation and at least some prototype shots I'll be satisfied. That will then make the wait until Toy Fair totally worth it.

That super ninja steel be looking lit af. But those super ninja steel modes tho...

Bandai bought their B game to NYCC. Well anything is a "B game" after their SDCC showing.

Ugh $20 for the Auto Morphin Figures is not worth it at all. Those standalone Zords will rot on shelves too no doubt.

What the hell are Bandai doing to the Legacy line?! Those zords look AWFUL! Pretty much like Imaginext but in a new box. Also what is the point of that White Ranger head?! It's infuriating me they're pinning the Legacy name on these crappy releases.

I want a Shogun Megazord, a complete set of Power Weapons and a complete set of MMPR helmets. As I'm dreaming I might as well throw in Tor and Serpentera too. STOP WASTING MONEY, TIME AND RESOURCES ON CRAP BANDAI! We don't need or want Legacy Zords that look like they were made for 5+, we don't want anymore Black and Gold recolours, we don't want stupid creations like a mini-White Ranger bust. We don't care about Legacy MMPR Movie 2017!

Actually, I like the B&G mecha releases as it at least shows they're invested in the Legacy mecha as it was. The individual Zords and lack of Shogun worry me that they're abandoning the Godaikin style and trying to move on to Playmates Voltron's turf...

I can't wait to get all 5 of the Dino Thunder Rangers.

Fixed that for you.

I agree with Barny T, so teh We was accurate. :lol

So you're telling me that the majority of Legacy fans are happy with Bandai wasting time on pointless releases like Legacy Zords and mini-Ranger busts when instead they could be shipping out genuine Legacy Megazords and replica props every 3-6 months like they did 2013-2016?

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.

My #19 reply was to Yellow Ranger btw! ;)

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

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.

I only want Tor, Serpenterra, and Shogun MZ and then I'm done. Not because they are from MMPR, but becuase they are from Dairanger and Kakuranger.

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.

Originally the Legacy line was supposed to be chronologically going over the most iconic seasons. Mighty Morphin, Zeo, Turbo and In Space are probably the most iconic. 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.
