Looks good, like the little teaser dragon dagger in the package, I guess green ranger is coming.

just saw that on IG and screamed. HOLY CRAP, I can not F'N wait to have that. I pray to god it's easy to order.
the gold on Gold Ranger looks so much better than the Legacy one.

Yeah hopefully this goes up on Pulse soon. Pretty awesome. I'm sure the single releases are coming soon regardless.

Can't wait to get it. I'm going to SDCC so I'm happy Hasbro is stepping up this year, looking forward to see what their Marvel Legends exclusive will be

Jason was always my favorite ranger so i've been looking forward to this but I must admit I am a little disappointed with the unmasked heads. as is pretty well known on WF, i don't like smiling heads, and the serious head just looks a bit off to me. granted part of the issue is probably a mediocre-quality digital paintjob (as was certainly the case with Tommy) since the technique in my view isn't quite at the level it needs to be yet, and really I wish toy companies would go back to traditional paintjobs until decent improvements can be made to this technology. but in this case i don't think it's just the paintjob. comparing the serious jason head sculpt to photos from the show, the cheeks/neck/chin area seems noticeably chubbier on the figure than it should be. and sadly i really can't see Hasbro tooling a third jason head for the regular MMPR red figure when that arrives, so i'm guessing these two options will be as good as i'll get in this line. it's not terrible by any means (certainly miles better than Tamashii Nations' embarrassingly bad attempt for their Figuarts Jason) and still easily his best figure to date, but yeh I would only call this an OK likeness, and I was really hoping they'd absolutely nail it for my favorite Ranger.

I'm guessing they scanned him recently and that's the reason for the chubby face. It definitely looks like current ASJ with no beard more than it does 93-96 Jason era ASJ. The smiling head seems to capture his likeness way better than the serious scan imo, but, as you said, that puts you in a tough spot if you don't want a smiling expression.

These Hasbro Rangers look pretty sick! I really hope they do some villains that BanDai didn’t already do 1000 times over. I think Zedd and Goldar are cool and good to start with but I’m hoping we see Scorpina finally! I have Mondo but I’d like to see him. Hopefully they can pick up the Psycho Rangers so there is a complete set!
I’m expecting to see a full sized Rita at SDCC. Hopefully they give her some waist and arms instead of the pixie thin Rita that Hasbro made (though I am glad she was made lol)

Just a bit disappointed they didn’t bust out the metallic gold. Otherwise, come on Gamestop. Don’t croak before October.

definitely agree about the color, but I am more than pleased with it, I have been waiting 25 years for a Goldar like this, I've had it pre ordered since February, I can't wait to have it in my hand.

WOW. Just shut up and take my god damn money now. I know some are going to complain about the Green Ranger helmet with the silver stripe, but that Putty is just unreal, I HATE that it is in a 2 pack because I intended to get at least 6, I hope they release it as a single down the road.
