I finally picked up Kim. I would say these look better in the package.

Just my opinion.

Oh, and I've only seen the dragon dagger at Target so far.

That retooled Megazord looks great from what I have seen from Youtube reviews.

Only '20 Bucks!'. That's like 14 pounds in my currency. Great value that.

Yeah, the Megazord is pretty great. I never had a big one when I was younger, and for 20 dollars, its pretty great.

I dont know if they're releasing a dragonzord? I've got the original of that, so I'm not sure if I'd pick up another...unless I got it to keep in the box.

They really need to release a Dragonzord. That would be a dream. I never got one when I was little

I still have my original Power Rangers figures of when you flipped their heads, they morph. Maybe it's only me but, they are better looking that the ones now. I never had a dragon dagger which I wanted, but I do have Saba. It makes you wonder if they are going to come back with those gloves when you press them on your hand, they make noise.

Are you people crazy? Those old toys arent good...these ones are actually sculpted. The Megazord is the same mold, scaled down. Its practically the same.

The new figures arent as good as the Super legends, but they're pretty good for the size, (detail and otherwise), especially in comparison to the old toys.

From what I have seen the new Megazord seems a lot more sturdy than the older wobbly toy. I think it could do with a slightly better colour palette in places. Nothing that can't be altered by anyone with an urge customising.

I think a Dragonzord is innevitable since there are shoulder connectors on Megazord. There is something on the rumourmill about an new Dragonzord for 2011 featuring new gimmicks including motorised movement (ala TF Trypticon). If anyone else can find news on an upcoming Dragonzord post it here

Also. There is a Titanos toy already with wave 1.5/2, so Bandai can't just leave Dragonzord out.

I'm sorry but based off the picture posted, the old Dragon Dagger is definitely better in my opinion. I still have my old one at my parents' house somewhere.

Dragon Dagger, yes, obviously. But not the figures.

are they still doing the Super Legends figures? I know this is the main ranger line right now, but I will be very upset if I can't get my hands on the Super legends pink ranger that was promised...

I got the Green Ranger and Putty yesterday afternoon. Very good figures. I just dislike those jet black weapons! I would'nt minded them being the grey they were with the biker size rangers back in the day. Better yet in an actual scheme like a lot of modern figure weapons are. Perhaps it was a cost cutting move...

I would have liked the Putty to have had the ball weapon or arm spike from the tv show, but with the assistance of some grey playdough any accessorie is a possible extension to suit the character theme.

I've not bought Power Rangers in years so I don't know what has been best and worst for the last decade, but I will say these are a decent small assortment.

When they went back to MMPR, I think they delayed Pink and planned Zeo V instead. Zeo V has since been caneled. He was going to be 5" like RPM. I think Super Legends will come back once the new Saban show starts. Personally, I wouldn't mind if they scaled down Super Legends to 4", but remember that I already collect that scale.

Also, Lord Zedd's getting a normal 4" figure.

Looks good. Now where's the blue blazes is Rita?

And Hero, I hate the black weapons too. You have to look really close just to see the details (and these are near perfectly detailed). Good news is Saba's gonna be in grey like the originals.

I was going to pass on the new Mighty Morphin Power Rangers toy line, but today I decided to buy the Green Ranger. He is very cool! I hope I haven't started collecting these too late, as I would like to complete the six Power Rangers and the villains by the end of the summer. I don't want to go to ebay for these.

I don't know if I should buy Goldar though. He is my favorite Power Ranger's villain, but his 4" figure has bad articulation. His arms are restricted by the shoulder pads, so that eliminates any possibility for awesome sword wielding poses. Any advice on that, is it still worth buying?

Any news on a new Command Center being released? I haven't heard anything about that, but it would be cool.

Edit: Also, does anyone know when the Power Rangers with the 'Green Ranger style armor' will be released?
Picture of them here:
