The 2-pack was $60 at release. Rita here is $50, $45 with edge. She's cheaper. I get that she still is quite expensive but you're getting a brand new mold here with better paint apps than the original and higher quality fabric from the looks of it. Plus the extra face plate and hands. For $45-50 it's worth in my opinion. More worth than the $45 they want for the Remastered Rangers that all share the same molds and accessories. Yeah, the old figures were cheaper but they aren't better and are already showing their age despite only being a few years old.

The original 2 pack is on sale for $45 right now. That's what I meant about it being cheaper.

The main new thing are the different faces. I don't know if it's the newer body or just the same as the original underneath though. Not worth getting for me but I will get the remastered Rangers though.

...wait a minute... does the Dragon Shield not come with Tommy? And is there no civilian head for "Jason"?

Its not the same body underneath. The new Rita's proportions are visibly different compared to the old one.

Didn't know. Anyways, too late now. She's sold out on Gamestop. I still don't think I care enough to get her. Getting the 4 MMPR will already be $200 so I gotta cut back somewhere.

Tommy's shield is removable and so are the arm guards. You can use them on any Ranger. Jason should have a head but it wasn't shown.

You mean Jason's arm guards and shield. Also "should have a head"? gonna need a source on that one. Every product image excludes showing a head. The description on the pulse page does not mention it, where as it does on tommy's figure page... I would not just assume they are hiding something that would be a selling point.

LOL. Hasbro being cheapasses again.

The Shield only comes with Red, and no Jason head.

Green is shield-less.

You have to buy them both to get a Shield for Green... and you still won't get a Jason civilian head.

In a way, it makes us who got the SDCC Armored Jason two-pack still have something that hasn't been made redundant yet.

She's up on Amazon now too if you change your mind

That explains why they have the shield with Red instead of Green. People probably wouldn't buy red without the head sculpt. We don't know if it's them really being cheap or if it has something to do with Austin St John's end. I mean the Dude is caught up in legal trouble right now..
