Hasbro's just doing too much good stuff for me to spend money completing teams. Maybe I'm just salty the metallic Rangers just stopped popping up around me.

Did anyone else’s Mighty morphin Rangers funko get canceled? My order for my maskless green ranger did this morning... I got an email saying that it was due to lack of availability, which sucks.

Saw Zeo Blue and Dino Thunder Black today for the first time. Grabbed Rocky but passed on Tommy. I said I wouldn’t grab Zeo Pink and Yellow unless I found Blue. Guess I have to stop at GameStop now (Zeo Pink and Yellow are rotting the shelves at a few GameStops around me).

I'm curious to see what Hasbro will bring to the table. Honestly though with their new facial scan technology they are using with their Star Wars and Marvel Legends lines I am excited. I haven't scooped up anything in a while but Prop Store did an auction on a ton of Power Rangers 2017 movie stuff. I was able to get a yellow ranger coin and I can't wait for it to arrive. I might be in the minority of people who enjoyed that film, but to have a piece of movie history is very cool!

I get the criticisms of the movie but as a PR fan I enjoyed it (the only complaint I had was the lack of morphed scenes). I was looking forward to the sequel before that got canned.

I loved the new movie. I'd like to see Hasbro move forward with the same cast and do a sequel. The only reason the origin story hurts the film is because we know we haven't gotten a sequel. So it's after the fact that I'm like, "man, I wish would have gotten more of them in the suits." It's Batman Begins, but we never got the next movie.
I also totally understand the Goldar complaints. I just didn't have a problem with it. If you look at how Rita (who I absolutely loved) used Goldar, it made sense within the confines of the film. It only really sucks when you compare him to the original character. Every new interpretation of a story has some casualties of the material that came before it. I thought the Megazord fight was awesome, though.
Dacre is a really strong leading man. I think we saw from Stranger Things it wasn't a fluke how much he shines in the spotlight. The cast overall had a great chemistry. I think Hasbro would be smart to pickup the pieces and move forward with the group already created. That allows them to hit the ground running since the origin story is out of the way. Plus, bring on Tommy.

I was surprised at how much I wasn't annoyed with Becky g as trini too.

They seem to be focused on all the other gigantic licenses now (Star Wars, Marvel DBZ).

Yeah it’s been that way for a few years (minus the recent SDCC exclusive unmasked Red and Green Rangers). They started with Super Sentai’s Zyuranger a few years back and released MMPR versions to mirror those releases in North America. The MMPR ones sold well here, but the Zyuranger versions weren’t flying off the shelves in Japan. They released a few more teams in Japan under Super Sentai (Jetman, SPD, Ninja Storm, Samurai, Super Megaforce), but those never got officially released under the Power Rangers label in North America. The fact that Marvel and Star Wars are selling like hot cakes hasn’t helped much either. Hopefully the SDCC maskless rangers sold well enough for them to complete the rest of the team and opens up the possibility of them doing other teams. The recent Hasbro purchased and their intentions to make PRs a much bigger brand than what it is today might help push Bandai to continue the line again as well. If not I’m excited to see if Hasbro will be releasing Marvel Legend style PR figures (and will be horrified if they are Star Wars Black Series quality).

Pal nabbed these for me at SDCC. Really hope they get the rest of the Psycho Rangers released to go with them, because these two are AWESOME.
