Why no one talking about this? Coolest shit ever, Power Rangers x Godzilla is insane!
>>11632466these look dollar store tier
As a die hard lifelong fan of both Godzilla and MMPR, I wish I could be more excited about these, but literally everything about Godzilla vs. MMPR 2 sucked, and sadly that includes the Kaiju Rangers.
>>11632466i like Godzillas, i like Megazords, but I don't like whatever that is
I agree with all the others here. Of all their funky crossovers, this is the one I like the least. The designs are just not good as basic figures. The super simple sculpts, beyond basic joints, and lack of detailed paint make these look like knock off figures compared to the much cooler art the packaging shows.
>>11632466Not a fan of the designs, but at least the sculpt are fairly decent for Playmates.But if getting released means there's a greater chance for pic related to happen, then I hope these sell well.
>>11632511I will.
Hey, I'm bouncing off the walls here in hopes we get the Zords.I wonder if the coins are compatible with the Reignition Morpher.
>>11632466The playmates garbage is pegwarming so hard. Jesus Christ.
>>11632686Same, my few Targets and two Walmarts haven't sold through the first pegs that got filled up months ago. It's just that kids these days have almost no connection to the Rangers brand and none of the Playmates product was geared toward collectors so most them don't want it either.
Why do these look like fucking bike figures? Don't these guys do the current TMNT toys? Those are least have moved away from simple cut shoulders.
Only good i can see coming out of this is if they play it smart and release a Godzilla that's around the same height as their combined Megazord, and they make it so that Dragonzord can combine with either of them.
>>11632692Playmates still hasn't figured out the ankle rocker
These looks intentionally worse than the TMNT x Godzilla figures the same company is putting out.I mean these things are kinda retarded too but they have better articulation and don't seem nearly as restricted.
>>11632686>>11632690Sells out at mine. The Zords much quicker.
Why do they have 5POA style shoulders but double jointed knees? Who does this appease?
Another pic.
>>11632703>Sells out at mine.
>>11632720I'm sorry you have trouble accepting things.
>>11632720You need to learn how shelfwarmers work, Anon.
>>11632726You need to stop defending shitty toys.
>>11632729Different subject. Regardless of a toy's quality, shelfwarming is locational. What sells like hotcakes in one state or city might rot for months in another.
>>11632730>shelfwarming is locational.Nope. It's a fact of the matter that the line is pegwarming everywhere.
>>11632731And if an Anon says that they toys are selling out at his store, it means "everywhere" is not the case. Man, you'd have a conniption if you were a Transformers fan.
>>11632732Nope, because they are not selling out at his store. He's lying.
>>11632734Show us on the doll where the Power Rangers touched you, Anon.
>>11632500I hate Ninja Turtles so much it's unreal
>>11632735Sorry you can't handle reality.
hey well while we're here, what does everyone think of these new third party Movie figures?
>>11632750
>>11632754what
On another Power Rangers note, the Prime comic ends with issue 16. Wonder what they'll do next.
>>11632759Will they do anything at all? Seems like Hasbro's interest in the IP is at rock bottom.
>>11632707Fuck yeah kaiju coins
>>11632897Boom, not Hasbro. Hasbro doesn't care as long as the licensing checks clear.Its kinda weird how these Kaiju Rangers toys only have IDW and not Boom, since they co-published the comic.
>>11632759The delay between issues as a result of the publisher really killed them. Issue 8 onwards was not available on apps for months and my LCS didn't even get some of the physical issues. Its too bad, I know VR Troopers is wrapping up but that was always a mini. Would have been fun to see an AU Beetlborgs or something.
>>11632468exactly what i was thinking
>>11633408That and the glacial pace. How many issues was it before someone morphed?
>>11632707those morpher coins almost redeem them>>11632750I got the team so far, so I'll get green and armored red and I imagine they'll make a drakkon too, I'd complain the shield and weapons aren't movieized enough, comparing them to the movie version blasters, but when the source material doesn't exist, it can't really be wrong
>>11632750There's something about the helmet that doesn't sit right with me for some reason. Maybe it's the absence of the red gem above the visor? I'm not sure.
>>11634821maybe because it's a bootleg and can't look exactly like the source material, retard
>>11634822You mean like the rest of the team, seen here >>11632751 , that look exactly like they did in the movie, retard? There is no 'source material' for a MMPRTM Green Ranger.
>>11634824>There is no 'source material' for a MMPRTM Green Ranger.Good, movie sucks
Gone, but never forgotten.
>>11634884That's me. Sic-uyaing till the day I die.
>>11634895>Pumpkin Rapper's mouth and eyes painted blackI still need to get around to doing this.
>>11632750I hate the crest that gets added to modern versions of the GR helmet in all forms, but other than that this is actually a decent interpretation of what the movie version would have looked like.>>11635175It's a demonstrable improvement, though like with King Sphinx's nose and mouth, it's pretty ridiculous Hasbro didn't bother to do it themselves.
>>11634883i have like every threezero 1/6 fig and new in box and iiiiiiiiiii should sell them.
Does anyone know which stores are stocking these guys?I got one online through fucking Gamestop, and another when I found the last one on the self at Target. I saw other series at a Hobby Lobby, but none of these.
>>11639557I was all excited cause I got the godzilla one but it's proportions are all fucked cause it's partially flat.
>>11632466It's shit. I hate it so much
>>11639569I'm not going to judge you for wanting furry Trini and scaly Jason, but you need to realize that if these figures do well, those guys have a solid chance.Meanwhile I'll sit in my corner and cry that I'll never see a decent Gravezord.
>>11639569Soon brother
>>11639557I saw them at Hot Topic once.
>>11632466>>11639557God, the Kaiju Ranger designs are so ugly and inconsistent.
>>11632466Dope>>11632500Trash
>>11639569Holy shit you keep posting these and they are absolutely fucking terrible. I hope to god we never get these, what a furry/scaly menace.
>>11632466>>>/m/ssg>>11632759>>>/co/mblr
I don't give a fuck about crossover comic book trash, I just want Playmates to release the rest of their Evil Space Aliens already.
>>11641124Right? I was really excited because I figured Rita/Goldar/Putty/Squatt/Baboo/King Sphinx were the first wave, and the second wave would be like Finster/Scorpina/four monsters. Silly me.
>>11641041still way better than this kaiju krossover krap
>>11641041>>11641793
>>11641245To make matters worse Goldar was relegated to a six pack in the US, so the villain assortment is only two figures here currently. I understand not wanting to blow your load all at once, but MMPR has no shortage of desirable villains. Pic related would have been an absolute banger of a first wave, and as you said Finster, Scorpina, and 4 monsters would have rounded things out nicely in wave 2.
TURN ON THE POWER
>>11641812I always appreciate this sort of thing, but it really illustrates the odd proportions of the Lightning Collection. It's particularly noticeable with Red's pose and his stumpy looking arms.
>>11641817Fair. Worts and all, I'm more fond of the LC than most of the people in these threads and even I'll admit they tend to look a little fucky in certain poses. The full teams still bring me joy to look at at the end of the day though.
>>11641805Too bad they're such awful figures
>>11641827That's a snazzy setup. I'm not huge into figures but the Phantom Ranger LC always did tempt me out of love for the character.
>>11641874Thanks, I try to give every team their due. And Phantom is legit one of the best figures the line ever produced. I guess it helps that his paint apps are so simple and minimal that even Hasbro couldn't fuck them up.
>>11641830Sucks you can't enjoy fun toys. They're a spiritual successor to Bandai's 5" Evil Space Aliens, and I love them for that. Being able to finally add Rita to the United Alliance of Evil was a dream come true. Being able to add Rita's Putties, Squatt, Baboo, and King Sphinx to my 5" collection was something I never even dreamed of, because once the main toyline transitioned to 5" it was season 2, and only Goldar was relevant enough to warrant a new figure in that scale. So I would be over the fucking moon to get those final three villain figures from Playmates.
The 'General Venjix' SMP is pretty cool.
>>11641827>Cloaked AndrosGod, I forgot about that one.
>>11641955I legit love Jedi cosplay Andros.
>>11641930Yeah it is, it's a shame the only other one they made was Blue Beet. Bowling pin Sprocket also displays well with Lightning Collection.
I will riot if Squatt and Baboo don't get released.
>>11641827>complete In Space team>giant Astro Megazord>full set of Psycho rangers>Astronema and Ecliptorpeople let this stuff go on clearance and then have the nerve to say only MMPR gets attention>but it wasn't up to my standards!and now you get nothing.
>>11641966Andros himself looks fine, but God if I had him I'd replace the cloak with something I'd made from a thinner fabric so it doesn't look like it's Saturday morning and he doesn't want to get out of his fluffy bathrobe.
>>11642050>ImaginextWe came so close... Also, if this is your gif, anon, maybe add the miniatures from Heroes of the Grid? It's the only thing that's made "toys" of all twelve of them.
>>11642023That's a nice fight scene setup, makes me want to finally do the Forever Red one I've been thinking of doing for awhile. That Sprocket looks good too, but I still wish we got LC figures for the royal family. Feels weird to have all the Zeos and Cogs, but zero representation for the main villains of that series.>>11642173In Space is my favorite Power Rangers that isn't MMPR, so all the stuff the LC did for it was a big part of what drew me to the line. I should really grab the other Psychos at some point, I picked up the rereleases for Blue and Red thinking they'd do the same for the rest of them eventually. I'm also still mad we never got Darkonda or Darkcliptor.>>11642425Space is cold, he needs it to keep him warm and comfy.
>>11642733God DAMN that's a bad ass kino
>>11642733>That Sprocket looks good too, but I still wish we got LC figures for the royal family. Feels weird to have all the Zeos and Cogs, but zero representation for the main villains of that series.The Machine Empire has been oddly fucked in terms of merchandise over the years. None of the Royal Family were made into 5" figures in the Zeo toyline (the only Zordon Era season to not have a main villain figure!), none of them got Lightning Collection figures, and even though the game is still going strong after eight years, Legacy Wars still does not have a single Machine Empire character on the roster. They don't even have Funko Pops (though Power Rangers has been bizarrely underrepresented in Pops in general, which is weird). I don't get it.
>>11642760Yea it's a mystery some obscure villains from a children's TV show don't get toys
>>11642760They are kind of the least memorable villains of the Zordon era. Divatox sucks, but everyone still remembers those titties. And, while they make a strong first impression at the start of the series, you really find yourself wishing they could just go back to Rita and Zedd like halfway through. Still, an LC Mondo or even Prince Gasket would have been nice to act as a leader for the cogs.>>11642748Thanks, I enjoy putting together throne room style displays for the villains.
>>11642608>miniatures from Heroes of the Grid>non-articulated>unpaintedNot action figures by any stretch.
>>11642761>>11642764Call them obscure or unmemorable all you want, the Machine Empire are the first real "new villains" of the show and they sent Rita and Zedd running for the hills, so they're definitely notable characters. Not to mention, they're cool-looking robots (perfect for toys), and regardless, the main villain is ALWAYS a character that should get an action figure in a toy line like this. The fact that we never got a "Crown-Spinning King Mondo" or a "Sword-Slashing Gasket" or a "Limb-Popping Louie Kaboom" is objectively INSANE.>>11642859>Not action figures by any stretch.No, I know, but since they're the only way we've gotten the entire MMPR Evil Space Alien crew so far, I feel like they deserve some acknowledgement.
>>11644675Statueshit deserves no acknowledgement in a list of toys.
>>11645092Really? Not even these little guys? I played with these all the time when I was a kid.
Toy store/ebay seller in Australia has Baboo listed. Weird that it's just Baboo, but it's progress.
>>11645904Nice
>>11641805So what will Season 2's waves be?>Zedd, Z-Putty, Pirantishead>Nimrod, Lipsyncher, Silver Horns
