Tbh, that whole team would be nice. I loved their redesign.

After sitting on it for a bit. Ultimately this was a mixed bag leaning on letdown.
They announced two variants of the MMPR Pink figure. Cell shaded really isn't my cup of tea. I think the cell shading is doing nothing for the design. It would be different if this was like Spider-man or some character you really want to see leapt out of a comic page. This aint it. Even with how much I like the Boom comics designs. They then announced another MMPR Pink that's holding the much more desired Zeo Pink hostage in a two pack. They could have just announced a solo Zeo Pink that is a limited time exclusive and just gave gamestop a solo Kat figure as well. That would have been consumer friendly. You could pick up Kat in a normal version of the suit if you wanted. That would have helped out a lot of people who just want MMPR Pink. It's as bad as the Scorpina two pack. Though that one is worse because we don't really know if they'd do a rerelease. Hasbro needs to stop pulling this nonsense. They could have done the 1969 rangers or taken advantage of the comic where the team switched colors. They could have done the most recent Ranger Slayer design or as posted that miniseries costume. A Kat two pack should have been Zeo Pink/Turbo pink. The morpher not bad. Not sure why some are against it's existence if they already own the previous one. Helmet , perfectly fine. What get's me is the teases. They teased the LG pink episode and nothing came of it. Announcing either of those two figures would have been good. Also I don't want them to pull a Psycho pink two pack nonsense either. We all bought the 5 pack after getting Red/Blue. We don't need a second Psycho pink. |

I was prepared to not like that Cel-Shaded figure, but I actually think it looks nice. I would buy a Yellow Ranger in that style. Definitely also happy to see no unhelmeted head in favor of more accessories.

Am I missing something with the cel-shaded pink here? For Transformers it makes sense since, well, they're from a cel-shaded cartoon; but there aren't really any MMPR animations. This seems a weird choice to me even beyond the "MMPR again, again" aspect
Yeah, if they're gonna do another MMPR Pink I'm surprised it's not her. Even if they don't do the whole team (and say it with me guys; I don't wanna see MMPR done a third time already), just New MMPR Pink alone would be cool.

Hey hang on a second, why is the Cel-Shaded MMPR Pink $30??? She doesn't even come with any more accessories than usual (given she nixed the unhelmeted head for the sword).

It's not ideal at all, as I agree that it should be the same price as the standard release if not only a dollar or two more, but I still prefer it to the original.

Part of the reason is probably to compensate for the increase in paint apps. As for the acessories, she actually does have more than the original Wave 2 release(even if only a little). In the place of the unhelmetted head is the Blade Blaster in both its holstered and blade modes, and again, what accessories are shared seem to have more paint to them.

I also pointed out that she also comes with the holstered mode as well, which the original release didn't have; it only had Gun mode. So this release does still technically have more.
