Lighting Collection Astronema, Ecliptor & Finster
 

Both Amazon exclusives going up for order today, releasing in April!

I keep thinking "wow April? That's pretty far off" with these reveals but then realise it's only 7 months away...

They are now live on Pulse in limited numbers for Premium Members

Pre-ordered the 2-Pack. Kinda nervous about it though since my local Amazon is terrible when it comes to packaging collectibles.

Okay, now that Finster is part of this I seriously want to see Bulk and Skull.

Ecliptor looking nice~

I have a feeling that Finster's lower leg articulation is gonna be pretty crap, but considering how he didn't even move that much on the show it's a bit more justifiable.

That Putty case is pretty cute though, and including his tools as accessories are a nice touch.

Instant buy from me. No question.

I really want Lightning Collections Bulk and Skull in the their Ranger Forms :D

And when Lt. Stone gets a figure I hope they include Bulk and Skull as monkeys. :lolol

I just want a squa and baboo two pack

If Lt. Stone gets a figure before Ernie, I riot

Ecliptor is mostly great. He's just missing some paint and he might be a bit big... or is it just Astronema is small? I remember her being small even compared to Andros in the other 2-pack.

Doing a very quick and dirty comparison here -- it seems Ecliptor is very slightly taller than your average LC, mostly owing to his big feet and 'hair'. Those elements combined with his bulk though will make him have a very large presence!

By the looks of things Ecliptor seems to be about the same height as Zedd and Goldar, so he should work out fine compared to the Rangers.

Bulk and Skull figures as monkeys probably become funniest Lightning Collection release....:D

Ecliptor on the show is shorter then Astronema. Karone is slightly shorter then Andros. Given the standard body and the differing heights of the actors to their sentai counterparts.....I'm not expecting too much accuracy.

Astronema is less not tall enough and more that her body is using the Hasbro scale of making all women tiny. Her even more so without her armor.

She Hulk is an absolute unit and they still found a way to make her petite in comparison to her comic counterpart.


But back to Ecliptor, they made him bigger then he was on the show. I think it will work for the toyline just because I think most of us remember him being a big tall guy despite being a big shorter fellow.

Overall I think we remember the monsters towering over the rangers when the mostly didn't due to the suit actors being a similar height. It's the monsters with elongated necks or giant heads that were taller.

It will be interesting if they due Darkliptor. They don't really have the mold for him. They need flip Ecliptors left arm to right which probably requires a new mold. Only parts of Ecliptor really make it through into the merger. It's even really Darkonda either. More like an inspired design between the two.
