The Legacy Dino Thunder Rangers look fantastic, especially Tommy. Between this and Zeo, they'll only only need a Turbo Red to have all his Ranger forms. I'm still hoping for Legacy time Force at some point, but I'm starting to doubt that will happen. Also, the informkation about paint apps beginning at about 7:10 was particularly interesting. I'm interested to see how the line does now that they've finished with the MMPR team. I know they're rereleasing the core five from MMPR, but let's see how they sell with less popular teams coming. I'll buy up quite a few teams (Zeo, Turbo, LG, LR, TF, DT, and SPD), but will the casual fans? MMPR Pink, Space Yellow, and Ninja Storm Blue are all shelf warming, so they'll have to also space out the female figs a little better going forward. I hope this line keeps going though as I love seeing full teams made in this scale. The paint apps part was great as it gives us more of an idea as to why certain figures may lack paint in certain areas. I think MMPR movie style figures are a given, and maybe Turbo. After that, I could see them going the Mega Force line route if only red and sixths Rangers unfortunately.

I still wish we could get more MMPR Figuarts. With the new movie hype and the secondary market prices for the Figuarts MMPR being pretty high, surely it would make sense for Tamashii Nations to do more now.
My most wanted would be full "teen" versions of the original cast (as in wearing street clothes with the real actor likenesses). Unmasked Rangers (again with the original cast likenesses) would be my 2nd choice. And last choice would be the other core characters, e.g. Rita, Lord Zedd, Alpha 5, Putties, Goldar, Finster, etc and lastly some kind of LCD screen in a tube with a looping Zordon animation would be an awesome high-quality way to not leave him out.
But I predict we'll get nothing more sadly. Like most companies they probably only care about doing the guaranteed massive sellers, which is just the regular Rangers.

As for the original cast teen and unmasked versions, I can't imagine them doing the American MMPR versions unless they did Super Sentai versoons first or itd be amazing if the unmasked versions came with both (dont know what theyd do for yellow ranger). I don't expect them to do any more but my main wish would be Goldar. I think a 6" scale Legacy Rita will do just fine since she doesnt need as much articulation but man, an SHF Goldar could be amazing and have so much more detail and articulation than a legacy version could ever have. Legacy series could also do Alpha enough justice to not warrant an SHF release, same with putties but they may feel too large compared with the SHF Rangers.

Weird question, but where's the best place to obtain/find these Bandai Legacy figures? I can't seem to find them on Amazon.

Yeah I'm seeing em on amazon but I think you can still find most between Target, TRU and Walmart. In the last few days I've seen all the MMPR figures minus the Red Ranger between just Walmart and Target (Walmart seems to have the newer wave with yellow ranger and white ranger. Saw Black, Pink, Blue and Green at Target).

I'll have to start checking Walmart for the white and yellow ranger it looks like.

Well, I'm halfway there with getting caught up on these. Red Ranger is pretty awesome imo. I saw an Alpha 5 too but just didn't want to spend an extra $20 at that moment, as I had other stuff as well. Hopefully I can get these all scooped up over the next couple of months.

Anyone else collect the MMPR Imaginex line? At first I ignored it but the zords are awesome, especially the T-Rex and Dragonzord. They've also already got all the main and side villains out and character wise, is currently the most complete MMPR line out there. They're fun to display and definatly worth a check.

Yeah I just bought the 2 foot tall Megazord, TRex zord and the battle armor Black Ranger/Mammoth zord and clear Green Ranger/Dragonzord. I really like the new clear/crystal ones they're coming out with and all the zords are awesome. I mainly bought the Megazord to display my Loyal Subjects collection with it as they fit in perfectly with it.

Then I found a swarm of Yellow and Pink and I had a coupon. So that was my "I guess I'm getting all of them" moment. I loved the movie. I think I would regret not having them by the time the movie hits on Blu-ray and I watch it again.

Bummer. Here's hoping TRU gets at least a couple more shipments in.

I haven't seen the movie version of Power Rangers Legacy ANYWHERE.. No traces whatsoever. Speaking of the new Power Rangers flick, the SH Figuarts prices have doubled since release.. So it looks like I'm gonna have to put off finishing the collection until after the blu ray release.. Should have grabbed the Green Ranger back in October for $75.

Bought my first power ranger helmet kit today. Got the In Space Red Ranger helmet. I'm not super handy but after watching some videos and reading tutorials I thought it would be fun to try to finish a helmet.
Anyone else ever complete a helmet kit? Any tips?
