When I was younger there used to be ads for toys all the time. Nowadays I never see a single ad for Power Rangers toys, I never know when an item will be released. They just randomly show up in the store and you just got to hope your lucky enough to find it. For example, my local Toys-r-us, Target's, and Walmart's carry only the Legendary megazord. Toys-r-us and the two local Target's carry (occasionally) the SPD and Mystic Dragon zord vehicles (I was lucky to find a Zeo vehicle hidden at Toys-r-us one time). And one Target carried the Q-Rex megazord for only a short period of time (like less than a month, haven't seen it since). All local K-marts, Sears, and Big Lots only carry figures, no zords at all. And a small family owned toy store here only sells Power Rangers/Super Sentai zords/mechas seasonally (X-mas). All other zord purchases I had to make out of town or online. I had to go two towns north to get my Turbo Falcon Megazord (at a Target), and three towns north for any Nippon releases (at a Toys-r-us). My local Toys-r-us does not sell Nippon editions, fortunately the one three towns over had one of the Gosei Great Megazord. Why is the marketing so crappy lately?
