When it's a sure seller like MMPR yellow, they should double pack it, the only female peg warmers I remember from the legacy line were In Space yellow and Ninja Storm blue.

Mighty Morphin Pink was a MASSIVE shelf warmer here in Barrie. Both Walmarts and the one TRU had a ton of her. Pretty sure she’s still on the shelf at EB as well, though they got the line in weirdly late.

I only saw one MMPR pink in retail in Alberta - weird distribution I guess.

I feel like Distribution is one of the 4 Horsemen of the Collector Apocalypse, lol. No matter what line from what company, it always seems insanely unbalanced.

Re: Hasbro Power Rangers Lightning Collection Line

I've seen Pink like 4 times at retail. Just not yellow. From where I'm from, I haven't seen anything after wave 2 at retail. However, I managed to get MMPR Red from Toysrus.ca.

Barrie is BLESSED with Lightning Collection MMPR Pink Ranger when other places in Ontario had less than one or none of her to sell. I have went from place to place city to city and not once until one time in a Supermarket that I found her! I made a trade with an American Collector just to acquire her. I traded a EB Games Exclusive LC Armoured Black Ranger for her and let's just say I met him on Instagram and it could have gone two ways but I was lucky.

Unless your referring to Bandai Legacy MMPR Pink Ranger which I too saw 5 at the local Toys R us many times in the past. They had paint problems with the white diamonds on the figure and I think they painted the belts silver instead of white.

You and me and the rest of CANADA bub! You got to go to some small town or city to find her. I found only one LC MMPR Pink at an Independent Supermarket in BEAVERTON, Ontario!!

Re: Hasbro Power Rangers Lightning Collection Line

Oh no. Was talking about the Bandai line in response to Web and Cloud’s posts on the Legacy Line female figures.

As far as the Lightning Collection is concerned I think I’ve only seen MM Pink three times here. Once at EB (where I got her), then at TRU, and finally at Walmart.

Ranger Slayer has shipped. I recommend having no faith in amazon preorders, forgetting about them, then being pleasantly surprised when a shipping notice is issued.
