>>6209095 What's the cheapest way to get a full set of Mighty Morphing Rangers? They don't have to be the figuarts, I'd be happy with anything decent quality. It seems like its nearly impossible to get the rangers I want with the way Bandai releases cases.
Anonymous
>>6210698 You have two options.
5 inch Good vs. Evil two pack for Red & Green (releasing in the spring) and the 5 inch Then & Now two packs for the rest of the team. Each 2 pack is $20, so it will cost $100 for the six MMPR and 4 movie counterparts. Sell off the movie figs (you can probably get at least $20 for them) and you'd be looking at $80 or so.
Then there's the 6.5 inch Legacy line. The core 5 MMPR are being re-released this summer (with weapons this time) for $20 each, but they'll be a metallic color, and you'd have to get the original release of Green (who won't match, and commands aftermarket prices) or wait for a potential metallic Green release.
Personally I prefer the 5 inch figures. The fact that they're making a new Rita, Putty, Alpha, and maybe even Goldar in that scale makes them much more appealing than the 6.5 inch figures who have no one but other Rangers to interact with. They're also in scale with tons of old and current villains as seen here
>>6209683 . Their weapons also combine to form the Power Blaster (Bandai stated the legacy figure weapons won't combine).

>>6213028 Not that guy, but do you think they'll be released in a single case together so that I could maybe preorder all 5 from BigBad or something like that?
I skipped out on getting the cases of the last figures because I would have had to have bought two because they released several of the mighty morphin with other teams like Space and I felt like they did that solely to make collectors buy both cases.

I still can't wrap my head around the build a figure Megazords. Looks stupid posing your 6.5 inch Rangers with a 6.5 inch Megazord. Would much rather have weapons, or if they were insistent on a build a figure at least make it something useful like a villain.

>>6216987 It's crazy to me that in spite of all their MMPR felating, and the fact that they've realized there's a demand for villains and have been making a lot of them in the Dino Charge and Ninja Steel lines, Bandai has only released TWO MMPR villains since 2014 (Zedd and Ivan).
Now granted this year is bringing us a new Rita and Putty Patroller (and maybe Goldar, the info from NYTF wasn't clear), but those are also tied to the new movie so there's no reason to think we'd get anyone who can't be included in a Then & Now pack.
I really hope those packs sell well enough for Bandai to finally finish off the gang in the same scale. I don't care if I have to buy Good Vs. Evil two packs to get them. Sheldless Green, Shielded Black, and Metallic Armor would be "new" figures they could package villains with that would be cheap kitbashes or repaints.
Anonymous
>>6217151 They could always try to sell them one of them with the White Dragon Ranger from the Boom series that's running right now.
Would pay out the ass for this dude.

Mutant Ranger variants could be a cheap second figure to package with civilian Rangers. They'd need to make Commander Crayfish for the Jason pack, but the rest would only need a new belt and weapon. To offset the cost of Commander Crayfish they could share some parts between the teens.
Anonymous
If I'm being honest, I would buy all the monsters from MMPR. At least up until they ran out of Zyu2 footage, because the Dairanger monsters aren't as creative design wise (with the HUGE exception of Pachinko Head, top 10 episode right there). It seems like a lot of people aren't really interested in villains, though. Why? They're all so unique and bizarre.
Anonymous
>>6217151 >>6217991 Why not just buy the original ESA figures? They already scale with the newer 5" toys.
I'd only like to see villains that weren't already released in that scale like Rita and Scorpina, or figures that needed a drastic upgrade like the Zedd one did..
Anonymous
Quoted By:
>>6218236 There aren't any 5" figures of Squatt, Baboo, and Finster, and Goldar could use an upgrade. The old MotD figures are adequate, but they only made like 15 or so. Obviously if they did make monster figures, emphasis would preferably be on first-timers like Madame Woe, Pumpkin Rapper, or Octophantom.
Anonymous
>>6217991 The villains were always my favorite part of the toyline. As much as I love the Rangers and Zords they're just not very interesting to me unless I have cool villains to pit them again. I bought whatever villains I could as a kid, and filled in the blanks when I got older via ebay.
While Dairanger didn't always have the best monsters there's certainly some I'd love to have. The Scarlet Sentinel (all three), Lipsyncer, Silverhorns (who makes for an easy Repellator repaint), and Skelerina spring to mind. Of course Scorpina, Finster, Squatt, and Baboo are the priority before any new monsters of the day.

That said; really fucking wish Boom gives us a "Forever Green" type mini-series with Tommy/Cam/Bridge being forced to tream up for an adventure. If only for the joy of watching Tommy get shitted on by Cam for being a pouser in the martial arts department and Bridge mercilessly trolling Tommy to the point of driving him crazy.
Anonymous
>>6218622 No clue what Boom's license is regarding Power Rangers; for a while it looked like they only had the rights to seasons 1-3 (IE the seasons under the Mighty Morphing title) but the most recent issue had Phantom Ranger (from Tubro) so who knows exactly what they can or can't reference.
That said, SPD and RPM are probably off-limits due to continuity issues (both are supposed to be set in the future) but SPD might be super-duper off limits given how the series is basically one big anti-SJW themed screed about affirmative action and the fact that the cast has talked shit about Saban, after they reacquired the franchise and promptly tried declare the Disney seasons as non-canon in their eyes.

>>6218609 Because they didn't even try and explain why the Red Rangers all kept their powers.
That being said, they addressed that whole issue in the follow-up anniversary special during Operation Overdrive by explicitly stating everyone but Bridge/Adam (who had access to their still functioning morphers) had their powers restored for the anniversary story

>MMPR Adam's Mastodon Morpber semi-worked in PRIS, showing that the dino coins weren't a complete lost cause (unlike the ninja coins which were vaporized). Not outside the realm of possibility that Jason got his Morpher back from Rocky circa Zeo, and in the 5+ years between Zeo and Forever Red he was able to get it repaired.
>Zeo Powers never lost, just stopped using them. No explanation needed.
>Turbo Justin previously had full use of his powers in PRIS, so why wouldn't TJ? They made it a point to state in the Turbo finale that Eltar was the source of their powers, and they don't demorph when power chamber is blown up, but when they're told Eltar has fallen to Dark Specter's invading forces. Once Eltar had a chance to recover the powers would be back online, hence their use in PRIS and Forever Red.
Also in light of Super Megaforce's finale, which used full teams who'd previously lost their powers, it's absurd to say Forever Red isn't canon because you needed to fill in a couple of blanks. It's a big universe and some shit happens off screen. Just enjoy it and stop being so autistic.

Anonymous
>>6219064 Except nothing I said was fiction. The show gave you enough information to fill in the blanks. We didn't need to waste time in a 20 minute episode explaning how Jason got his morpher fixed, or reminding people that Tommy's powers were never lost, or how TJ was using powers that we'd already seen to have been restored years prior. I never see people cry about "True Blue to the Rescue" being non-canon for not explaining how Storm Blaster got Justin's Morpher or how it worked. I never see people cry about "Legendary Battle" being non-canon for using Magna Defender, Ninja Storm, etc.
The Overdrive team-up was far more offensive to the show's continuity by giving Rita and Zedd an adult son who'd been imprisoned years prior, but that one gets a pass in your book because they gave a lazy explanation on how they had their powers?
Just because you lack the imagination to fill in the blanks doesn't make something non-canon, and you don't get to arbitrarily decide what is and isn't canon based on your own autistic criteria.

The concept of the line is great, but wave 1 being straight re-releases dooms them to peg warm. Wave 2 is much stronger with a new Poisandra, Loogie, and the MMPR pack which will sell by virtue of being MMPR, but also has a new accessory enticing those who already have the figures. The only weak pack in that assortment is Jayden/Ninja, though part of me is hoping it actually turns out to be Lauren since she's never recieved a figure in the US,

Would've been nice if they used this release to give 5" Green Ranger a more accurate color. Or if they gave him his damn armbands. The only 5" Green Ranger with armbands was the triangle box release, but that version had the silver helmet stripes and a silver morpher. If this had been a definitive 5-inch Green Ranger with all the proper details I'd have bought this pack in an instant.

I guess this means the Then & Now Putty and Alpha will just be repackaged 4" figures as well. What a waste. I guess they felt the 4 inch Rita was too terrible to re-release (she peg warmed like nobody's business) so at least we're getting her, and Poisandra in the Good/Evil packs, but the rest are such wasted opportunities. This line could be a great way of releasing older Rangers/villains. A good amount of past Ranger tooling is already done thanks to the Super Megaforce line, so it'd be very cheap for them to do, and make the sets a lot more appealing to people than just re-releasing the same figures again and again.

It'll start to hold better after the first couple coats. You can also sand the area with a high grit sand paper to get it to hold paint better, but I don't ever personally find this to be necessary.

>No Silver Space Ranger/Darkonda set for us, although let's be real, that was never happening anyway. Bandai originally said Poisandra would be in a line that composed of characters they missed. Shame they didn't follow through on that. Zhane being absent from the Super Megaforce line was a giant oversight, and people would go nuts for Darkonda.

for figures a very fine sand used to sand blast would work well (VERY sparingly, you just want enough to texture the surface)

honestly I'd say Super Sentai is really worth getting into(as is Kamen Rider), the just started Space Sentai Kyuuranger is so far looking to be pretty good for example, also Shout Factory has been releasing season sets for several seasons starting with Zyuranger(the series MMPR Season 1 is based on), with it and Dairanger available for free streaming on Shout Factory's streaming site;

>>6229839 >MMPR shit didn't sell state side Not true. Adam Newman of Tamashii Nations said they put up DBZ sales numbers. The problem is other teams didnt sell, and Japan felt none of the unmade teams stood out enough to cater to the US market. Which I personally don't understand becuse Zeo and Space were clearly above the rest in the polling, and also if MMPR put up good numbers why not at least make some other charcters from it like Goldar or Zedd? I know Bluefin was pushing for Zedd, but Japan was being unecessarily difficult about it. It seemed like they had a stick up their ass about catering to US demand despite doing so for DBZ, and numerous lines since then.

Maybe Blufin will push for something again since they are after the american 80's children nostalgia dollar hard even now. Plus there's still the shout factory subs of OG sentai stuff too.

They could also try an entire team set as a con exclusive but that probably won't happen since the Samurai set bombed hard.
Anonymous
>>6230322 Pretty sure the reason the Samurai set bombed is because they were metallic and wouldn't mesh with the rest of people's collections. MMPR could get away with it because of it's popularity, and the fact that there was metallic armor in the show helps, but most people aren't gonna want metallic repaints for other teams.
Sadly shit like that Samurai set which was destined to fail, and poor sales of teams not popular in America like Overdrive, convinced Japan that people only care about MMPR.

>>6235510 I've recently been buying some of the legacy figures begrudgingly due to the fact that my favorite teams are getting represented (and also Ninja Storm), but owning them hasn't changed my negative opinion of them. They miss the mark in so many ways that it's impossible for me to look at them with anything but disdain. They also don't fit in with anything else I own, so I don't even know where to put them.
Shockingly enough I actually like the build-a-Megazord figures though, and I've been one of the harshest critics of them existing previously. Yes villains would have still been the better choice, and weapons should never have been sacrificed at the expense of a BAF, but I really like part swapping ability they have. I love Zordbuilder for the same reason, but lord knows we're not likely to ever see a season beyond MMPR get Legacy Zords, so the fact that I'll be able to mash up the MMPR, Zeo, Space, Ninja Storm, and Dino Thunder zords by the end of the year is very appealing to a Lego fag like me who likes to be able to build things in new ways.
It seems as if Bandai is going to start to replace the Zord parts with weapons though if the line makes it past the Zeo/Dino Thunder wave. Which is how the figures should have been sold originally, but as someone who finds the Zords to be the only saving grace of these shitty figures I'd find that to be a conflicting decision. At this point the pooch has been screwed and people are bound to be unhappy either way. I honestly think Bandai should just cut their losses after the 2017 figures and start over with a better thought out line.

White Ranger is such a ripoff. At least they tried to give Green more to make up for his lack of build-a-zord part, but White just gets his weapon and holster. Could've given him a swappable short blade like the figuarts, could've given him the Megazord's Power Sword, but nope. It's White Ranger, you'll buy him anyway. I like how they actually try to use his accessory as a selling point on the box too. Wow, White Ranger comes with the sword exclusive to the White Ranger? Totally worth the same $20 as the others who come with a holster, sidearm, and big ass zord part.

Is there any figure of Alpha 6, at all? I only know about a few for Alpha 5.

So what's the deal with the Ninja Steel megazord line? What possible reason could thy have by only selling the auxiliary zords with a repainted megazord? Considering they made like, four original ones and repainted every one of them at least once for Dino Charge, it seems weird they suddenly decided they can't sell them on their own anymore.

>>6242965 Thanks for the heads up, anon.
Picked up Red at a GS the other day, too, normal retail. Rest at Walmart the same day.
Glad I didn't have to play the waiting game.
A little disappointing they won't come with weapons, but I have the Imaginext series I think is actually more fun for play value anyway, and great sculpts for the size.

>>6226727 Jason as Gold Ranger was always bullshit to me.
They spent the entire Gold Ranger arc teasing Billy as the Gold Ranger (he didn't get Zeo powers yet hung around) and then not only do they reveal that Gold Ranger is some random alien, but then immediately pass the powers off to Jason.

>>6243238 The Jason/Tommy dynamic rearranged worked out much better than Billy being Gold, though. It even gave Rocky some interesting character moments of jealousy. It would've been nice to see billy suit up one more time, but he wasn't right for Gold Ranger. Billy as Phantom ranger would've been more appropriate,

>>6242856 The company line is that kids and parents didn't like the auxiliary Zords because they don't "do anything" on their own and were a poor perceived value compared to Megazords.

I think there will eventually be a box set that gathers the Megazord and auxilaries. That's why I'm holding off on the Megazord.

With Saban streaming the entire series in the build up to the release of the new movie, can someone tell me what my best options are for getting a Zhane/Silver In Space Ranger?
Anonymous
Quoted By:
>>6243286 Space and the 3 follow up seasons are Golden Era PR to me. They all had Judd Lynn as head writer and he approached each show as an actual story first and a toy commercial second. Watching the Twitch stream with randos and everyone seemed genuinely hyped for the best Space moments.
>>6243663 Either the 4" one that came with the Cycle or the big 8" one that came with the DX Winger. The 5" one is jacked to the max and has restricted articulation. Plus it's hard as fuck to find.

>>6213071 Haha, holy shit. I've been picking these up for my kids and they love them. As a kid, my two favorite monsters in MMPR were Finster and the Sphinx. I'll have to track this one down for them, my little girl will love having another female villain alongside Rita.
Are there any other sets coming up for the MMPR line? I think the only ones the kids don't have currently is the newer two packs with the monsters and Red and Black with the dragon shield, Zedd and Goldar, and the Putties.
My son picked out a repaint of the Triceratops Zord (Blue's his favorite to the point that he has to take the Ranger figure everywhere with him) that's black and gold instead of white and silver and I've gotta say that I think that it's an improvement over the original color scheme.

>>6241457 These look awesome. Roughly how much do these go for? Are the Zords/Guardian Beasts sold separately?

>>6244310 Damn those are sharp. Don't want all of them by any stretch, but I at least want the MMPR team. Hate that I'm late to the party but ive bought maybe 2 PR related figures since 2006. Just lost interest a second I got older.
Prices don't seem awful though. Are these in stores still in some places?

>>6243704 I didn't know they were doing Squatt and Baboo either. Apparently some of these and the Scorpina/Sphinx sets have already shown up in the UK. Anybody know if they've started showing up anywhere in the US yet?
Another I didn't know about is the White Tiger Zord in battle mode. It looks fantastic.
