For 35 bucks though, it is what it is.



Yeah I'm baffled they keep messing up AJJ's face. They did a good job on Aisha and Trini.

Regardless, it's money saved. Especially for a Canadian buyer, these exclusives would be mad overpriced.
Yeah, Bandai America was putting out damn good zords up until around Ninja Steel where the quality started to fall off. Those Legacy Zords are fantastic though like you said. I have the Legacy Megazord and Dragon Zord and they're great. Looking back I wish I'd have picked up all of the Legacy Zords. I wish I picked up alot of Legacy stuff I passed up on actually. If I'd have known Hasbro would be getting the license and that we'd never get high quality props and Megazords again I'd have definitely bought as much as I could. I think I remember some legacy stuff even going on clearance before Bandai ended the line. Now all the legacy stuff is worth stupid amounts of money and basically unattainable.

Another thing Hasbro got wrong with the Ninjetti's are the diamonds on the boots. They're supposed to have 3 on the front, mean while only Pink has 3 on her boots. Blue, black and White only have 2. If Hasbro stopped referencing low quality google images and stopped only using 1 photo as reference, they'd have noticed. Cause in most of the photo's you find on google of the Ninjetti's, White, Blue and Black have their pants draping over the boots, covering one of the 3 diamonds, but there are a few rare photo's of the Ninjetti's(on google images) showing the male rangers boots fully exposed with the 3 diamonds on them. LC is nothing more than over priced "collector" items. You're only paying the premium price for the Hasbro name, not for what you're actually paying for. I mean it's been over 3 years since this line has began and they still don't know how to reference source material properly.

Re: Hasbro Power Rangers Lightning Collection Line

Some Lightning Collection Updates.

- The 2022 Waves have been leaked. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bEx5HXSyeDk

Wave 11: Dino Fury Red, Dino Charge Pink, Wild Force Lunar, Unknown Zeo Villain

Wave 12: Lost Galaxy Green, Dino Thunder Yellow, Wild Force Blue, an Unknown MMPR Black Variant

Wave 13: Beast Morphers Yellow, Dino Fury Green, Dino Charge Blue, Unknown Wild Force Villain

Deluxe Vehicle sets:
- Wild Force Red with Cycle
- Space Blue with Glider
- Time Force Green with Cycle

Also, 'Red Ecliptor' is getting a solo release.

The MMPR Power Zord, Zedd Helmet/mask, and Drakkon Helmet are the Roleplaying items.

The MMPR Megazord and Dragonzord will get Lightning releases. Probably in the 250-300 CAD range each.




In addition, SPD A-Squad Red has been released. You may see that figure showing up at our Canadian Gamestops randomly soon, and Green at Bestbuy.




Also, Wave 9 is now out at Gamestops in Canada. That's your cheapest bet for getting them if you have an EB card.

Picked up Space Black. Solid figure.



Likely my final Lightning purchase of 2021. Let's see what 2022 brings.

After 2 years, they've rolled out quite an assortment of these figures.

Re: Hasbro Power Rangers Lightning Collection Line

What's the point of doing WF Red with his bike if they're going to put WF blue in a basic wave? I could understand if you wanna release a whole team with their vehicles, cool but doing this one off thing just creates more inconsistency.

Man on man. Where is poor SPD Yellow? They need to prioritize her to finish that team. So weird that the A-Squad will be complete but the main Rangers won’t.

Nice, Wild Force is my favorite team, so definitely going to complete those. Weird that they're starting to do Time Force again, after Red was the only one released, I thought Hasbro abandoned that team. I wish they would concentrate on completing Dino Thunder and SPD.

Re: Hasbro Power Rangers Lightning Collection Line

All this info on upcoming waves, and still no In Space Silver and Ninjastorm Wind Ranger, what the hey!, those are the only rangers I want now.

also I guess the Monsters are done-zo?
