Mean while I saw someone on Ranger board forums talking about how they bought 2 Andros on clearance at Target for $6 .We get screwed so hard here, it's not even funny. Like at least Americans can wait for deep discounts on stuff they don't want to pay retail for with the price increases. Where as we can't cause the most we'll get is %20 off if lucky. Unless Walmart or Amazon had a deep discount bit even that isnt all frequent and is rare

Yeah it's pretty tragic for us collectors here, and getting increasingly worse with the raging price hikes

we pretty much get the buy it now or you will never see it again.

Americans get buy it now or just wait till it's 5 bucks.

saw people getting Joes, Rangers and Legends for 2.00 from Walgreens on other forums.

not to mention how crappy the Exclusive game is, we hardly even get these exclusives.

Re: Hasbro Power Rangers Lightning Collection Line

It's basically why I can't sympathize with American collectors. I know the increase is affecting retailers worldwide but if all they have to do is wait a couple of weeks to get deep discounts, I don't wanna hear the whining.

In other news, got a shipping notice for my Lord Zedd helmet from Gamestop so those should be in Canadian hands shortly (keep a lookout in-store too).

A figure costing the same as a larger scale transformable deluxe zord is effin mad.

And Black Series Jyn Erso is 42.99 :/

Looks like the Wal-mart Hasbro 6" Megazords are out in the Americas.

They kinda look underwhelming tbh. They look more like Toys than collectables. I'm guessing these will be like $40 when they hit our shores.

Those look bad if they choose to charge $40. They look sort of rubbery.

Re: Hasbro Power Rangers Lightning Collection Line

Yup. They definitely look like kids toys. Theyre done in that 'Retro' style like Ninjor.

Thuder Megazord looks decent from the waist up. The legs need more paint.

If these are sold for under $20, I'd custom paint it.

Re: Hasbro Power Rangers Lightning Collection Line

I enjoy the VHS novelty of the packaging. They're basically vinyl toys but not as detailed as Bandai Japan, or as cheap...so I wanna say equivalent to playmates taking over the godzilla line lmao.

Re: Hasbro Power Rangers Lightning Collection Line

Did anyone ever get one of these from TRU yet? The listing has been up for over a month, but it never came in stock:

Tyrannosaurus Sentry
