That looks very cool. I will get one when it comes out.

But yes, the Legacy prices are becoming a bit high.

It's probably all the metal. Bandai is probably aware of how HasTak's Masterpiece toys use it but hasn't really grasped that those use Diecast far more sparingly.

Looks pretty good, but like the Legacy Thunder Megazord it's expensive.

Just found an incomplete Kakure Daishogun (No Falcon/Tsubasamaru) for $70 and a complete Ninja Falcon Megazord for $90

Legacy prices need to up their game

...Er, lower their game

Considering the falcon has always been just a backpack, I don't think there's any metal in it to warrant an $80 price tag.

Glad I have an original Falconzord. This is an easy pass. I just dont see the $80. It looks nice enough but kind of plain frankly.

What if it's SOLID METAL?!

Then we'll all laugh when the Legacy Ninja or Shogun Megazord comes out with weak knees or poor balance that causes the combined piece to lean embarrassingly without the tiny, included, but easily lost knee clips.

Falconzord looks really tiny based on the size of the clip or the White Ranger figure standing beside it. Another overpriced Legacy release if it is really $80.

The only good thing I'm seeing with this announcement is the chance of a Legacy Shogun Megazord, but that'll probably be overpriced, too.

Well, it looks nice, but not $80 nice. I just really can't see a genuine justification for these Legacy prices other than Bandai trying to see what they can get away with.

I like it but, seriously....give it some metallic paint. Hopefully they do before release.
