That’s great to hear! Glad to see that they are starting to catch up. There’s hope for wave 5 then.

Re: Hasbro Power Rangers Lightning Collection Line

So Targets in the States have started getting in a Dino Charge Black Ranger for the Lightning Collection. WTF Hasbro? I know you guys have marketing teams cause I can’t go on social media without seeing a slew of ‘reveals’ for Star Wars, Marvel Legends, Transformers, and GI Joe figures. How about you figure out what your Power Ranger department is doing cause they absolutely suck at announcing, distributing, and keeping stock of these figures.

Like what you said. They are probably the bottom of the list so no love = no marketing dollars. Unfortunately that often means dollars go to retail support than communicating with the general public. Stock issue that's another story with sales and logistics.

Re: Hasbro Power Rangers Lightning Collection Line

Yeah I posted about the black ranger which is a target exclusive from multiple sources. White Dino, no idea. Totally agree with you guys. It’s like we want these figures yet they make it so hard to get. Is it toys r us that gets the target exclusives here? I can never keep track.

At least as far as Marvel Legends are concerned, then yes. Most recently with the Target Exclusive Red Hulk figure. So hopefully they’ll get these in as well.

Re: Hasbro Power Rangers Lightning Collection Line

I was lucky that Amazon delivered my MMPR yellow. Now I need to get ahold of MMPR Blue and Ranger Slayer.
It's been poor marketing by the random wave assortments. Should have just focused on 2-3 season instead of a mess like right now.
I get it's probably to gauge sales but in term it's a mess.
Power Rangers IMO works better as a team. If I see a whole team announced. I'm more excited to pick up figures that I don't intend to.
And villains. Need more villains for sure.

It's just a matter of more stores releasing a large amount in each store.
