Figuarts revivals of Zyuranger would be cool but it seems like they're only doing current series right now and series that were specifically popular in Japan(Gokaiger). I think Bandai wants to play it safe as of now and not go too deep into the line so it might be sometime before they consider wanting to complete entire teams again.

I bought the original releases mainly because of the price point and nostalgia. The more I looked them the more I started disliking them for the helmets. The plastic I could have lived with if the helmets were better. I agree plastic quality wise the figures were fine at the price point but I can't agree with the helmets being fine for the price point though. For $25-30 the helmets should have been better. I could understand it for kids toys that are like $10-$15 but these are marketed as collector grade, screen accurate figures. Anyway that's just my take.

Well friend.

The good news is that the original MMPR PR Lightning figures are still out there for decent prices if the new ones don't live up to expectations.


The MMPR Remastered figures may be $34 USD:

According to TokuTopics, who found the listings...


That means they're going to be around $50 Canadian each in our retailers.

Thanks for heads up. I hope they turn out decent. I don't mind paying a bit more for decent figures but the QC issues these may have is worrisome.

Re: Hasbro Power Rangers Lightning Collection Line

Depending on which ones and what they come with, I may still get them cause I'm a sucker for MMPR. I said I wasn't getting the Ninjetti figures, but ended up getting the whole set.

Having a second set would mean I can dispaly the old ones without helmets and the new ones can be with helmets on.

Not sure, though Wild Force Blue did show up in stores a little while ago.

I mean, the Ninjetti were basically $50 each, and they had the worst qc out of any Lightning Collection figure to date.

Yea that's what I'm scared of happening again here but I think we should be okay considering this is the money maker team. I'd like to believe Hasbro wouldn't let their flagship team get terrible QC issues, especially since this will be a regular retail release too.

Re: Hasbro Power Rangers Lightning Collection Line

Does anyone know if Gamestop ever got the Lunar Wolf Ranger with the corrected 6 stripes? All the ones I've seen there are the 5 stripe version. Scared to order it online cause no idea which version would ship.
