No I'm not talking about the original MMPR toys from the mid 90's, I'm talking recent! Surprised huh? So was I!

Some of you may know that I don't really collect Power Ranger toys nor do I really buy anything from Bandai America. The last toys I bought from them were MSiA! & the 5" Green & White Ranger figures from a few years back. The new MMPR Megazord wasn't impressive to me, and ditto for the 4" figures.

So I've seen the Samurai Rangers figures in stores, and ditto for those, the Megazord doesn't look anywhere as good as the Japanese version. This is almost always the case save for the Wild Rangers or whatever that series was called with a bunch of animal zords.

So today at TRU, I stroll the aisle and come across a 10" Red Ranger figure from Samurai Rangers. I'm thinking from afar, "this must be some kiddifified figure with some gimmick".

Well the latter part was right. The former was not. The only gimmick is a electronic sounds activated by a button on the belt. The figure itself is fully articulated, and made predominantly with ABS plastic that does not feel like it's prone to looseness.

Since the package is an open card, I handled the figure for a bit. Very impressed. The vest is removable, it splits in 2. The figure has double jointed knees and I think elbows. It lacks an ab joint, it may also lack a waist joint. The ankle is on a ball jointed hinge and functions like a Revoltech joint(without the detents).

It only comes with a sword and I only saw a red ranger. Nonetheless, I am very impressed. It was $20+ tax, I didn't pick it up but I may in the future.
