damn gotta find that episode i could use a good laugh today. and thanks i wondered how to report spam. anyone see all those "keys" that are coming out in the us next year? what do u think of them win or lose? IMHO i think that these will not be big at retail as its sentai counterparts but that might because while the premise sounds cool i just dont see the average 4-11 year old hunting these down and i really dont know if there enough collectors to make it a hit especially when i see the cards just taking up room and not moving so fast at retail. went a little adhd there didnt i?

i agree theres very little quality wise in this line that comes cheap. figuarts are pretty but from what i seen when u see a fig u want buy it i have yet to see a figuart go down in value even when opened.

Is the Bandai 6" stuff really that bad? How are they compared to the Thundercats figures? I thought those were adequately accessorized and mostly well articulated. Design was simple, but that is how it was in the cartoon.

[trebleshot]

6" TC figures were pretty decent, but the only non-Figuart 6" PR figures I've seen are either the gimmicked ones or the 'Roided-out versions. Granted, I don't really follow Bandai of Japan when it comes to Sentai figures, so I'm not sure what's available there.

Bandai stopped doing 6inch PR figures in 2009. When Disney relaunched MMPR in 2010, Bandai went the 4inch route and has never stopped with it.

There was a 7inch Red recently, which is pretty ugly. In fact, here are some of my pics:









And here is a link to a little comic I made:

I added some more ShinkenPink and Blue pics to the slide show.

Here are just one from each:





Also, for anyone interested, here is the weapons tray with the 5 pack:



Finally, I have updated my collection pics as well. You can find close up shows here: FiguartsCollection813 Slideshow by DrKainn | Photobucket

How much did that 5-pack run you, Dr. Kain?

Looks awesome

Sorry I didn't answer this earlier, but there's a red and white "yield" symbol just below the avatar area on the left side of the post. Click on that for the spam post and we can take care of it.

that set needed a 7 pack a reg shiny red and gold/light ranger shiny. still very pretty. lucky u

[Dr Kain]

The 5 pack was at BBTS for $224. So it was pretty much just the price of the item with CA sales tax.

Got some more pics here:



Having a green day:



Can you spear me some love?

[redx24]

green was my fav from that season.

[Talisman]

I'm looking at this and all I can think is "I'd love to get a 3.5" set of Time Force/Timeranger figures".

I guess I'll have to settle for paying out the stern for the Red from the upcoming Super Megaforce series.

Yeah, Chiaki is actually my favorite Shinkenger as well. He was a great character, had a lot of development, and had an awesome weapon (I love spears).

So remember how we were discussing how maybe Ms. Jo Johnson would come around?

And I will miss it because I'll be elsewhere learning to repair F/A-18s.

[trebleshot]

I'm not that much further away than you are, but I don't have nearly as cool of a reason for missing it.

All I can say is, start planning. A very large chunk of the MMPR cast is going to be attending- So far the only Rangers who aren't confirmed are Austin St. John and Johnny Young Bosch.

I wouldn't be surprised if that question gets asked at her panel (yes she's getting a separate panel). Though considering that a lot of interest has been sparked due to the 20 Year Anniversary, especially in regards to the older series, I wouldn't be surprised if that had something to do with it.

Though you know who I'd really love to meet at a con? Daniel Southworth. Eric is easily my favorite Sixth Ranger.

Alright, by way of the MU thread and my mystery box that I got from my grandma of toys she got at some random sale.. here are the thing I believe to be power rangers toys. Are any of them desirable? Or should I include them in the bag of random stuff I'm now taking to the local shop for trade in value?

Well, yes and no. A lot of it is incomplete- biggest thing in that haul is the Super Zeo Megazord- those three and a half gray robots- that you're missing a zord and a half for. The rest are two McDonalds toys from the MMPR movie (The red ape and the black frog), a Beetleborg, the Green Turbo Ranger, and a Morphin Black Dino Ranger. All of it is incomplete and in various states of weathering, so my advice is "trade it".
