Reviews of Wave 8 are starting to pop up, and most seem to agree that DT Blue is the best of them. The most notable thing being that his neck is slightly longer than most other LC figures, making him look less stumpy and allowing his helmet a bit of extra movement range. Hope it's the new standard going forward.

Yeah DT Blue is probably one of my favorite overall releases in the line yet. Ethan came out stellar.

I know it’s oooooold news, but I finally got the In space 2 pack and I love the red ranger ( which oddly enough, is the red ranger design I hate the most after Turbo in the Saban era....) and Astronema sure is reusing the feet parts of the Ranger Slayer, so I sort of have the same problem I had with Ranger Slayer with Astronema.
Also....errr she doesn’t look like the actress at all. |

Got Zeo Green from Bestbuy.
This wave overall isn't the most spectacular as we've seen all these teams before, so it's generally an accessories comparison(and more much paint Hasbro will apply). DT Blue wins the accessories game. So next wave it's either Big Bird or your preferred ranger. Zeo green images. |

Just received Zeo Green from Amazon. Might be jumping the gun a bit, but I think it's probably the best Lightning Collection release in the entire line.
He poses extremely well. They've fixed the issue with some helmets sitting too low on the body (I believe they did the same modification on Zeo Red). He can actually put his arms straight down, something that's been a bit lacking on many LC figures (can't remember if the other Zeo Rangers had that issue). He comes with his signature weapons unlike Zeo Blue. But what really sells it for me is how immaculate the Johnny Yong Bosch headsculpt is. I'm in awe. It seriously rivals import companies. It almost feels like a waste to have him posed with the helmet on when his unmasked head is this good. I could also be biased since Zeo Green/Adam is very near and dear to my heart as the original Auto Morphin' figure is one of the first Ranger toys I ever owned. But the fact that Hasbro knocked it out of the park (no pun intended) makes it that much better. P.S. I'm also realizing that we kind of have a lack of Green Rangers in the line. I believe Bridge will only be the 4th unique Green Ranger in the line (one of them being Psycho Green).

Hasbro Pulse now has a UK branch so you guys in the UK can get those exclusives too.

I checked it out earlier -- their only LC stock thus far are the two upcoming waves, and they don't have exclusives. I take that to mean though that they're just not putting any previous stock in there and we will get future exclusives... and honestly, I'm not really gonna lose sleep over psycho green, shiny pink and 2 putties. So yeah, this is cool! It's also a nice way for us to actually get the recent waves when they come out instead of like 8 months later!
They do have some Transformers exclusives too, including those Headmasters. Tempting...

Don't know if these are old rumors or not, but apparently there is some listing code out there which might imply which figures are next in Wave 10.

Technically old rumors. We've seen the code "MERCURY" before, which lead people to believe that Mercury Ranger was going to be an upcoming figure at one point.
