Review: Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers - Walgreens Exclusive Dragon Shield (Armored) Black Ranger Lightning Collection Hasbro

The Walgreens Exclusive Black Ranger! This recently started showing up in the U.S. but has been out overseas for a couple months now. I got mine a while ago through Comics & Cocktails, based in the UK. I got him and the Psycho Blue at about 20 pounds each plus 20 shipping... however! I didn't realize it was going to be in pounds so I paid about $80 USD. Yeah... well I was pretty happy with the one I received and it's nice to have this all american figure since it's based on Zack from the season finale of the first season, "An Oyster Stew." That used footage that is referred to as "Zyu2" footage since it was MMPR Original footage but instead of being recorded in the U.S., it was recorded by Toei in Japan which explains the quality of the footage and suits, especially the armor. Personally I haven't seen this figure in person yet so I'll probably pick one up if I see another.

Review: Marvel Stud10s - Iron Man (2008) - Marvel Legends The First Ten Years Tony Stark and Iron Man Mark 1

This set was really hard to find since every time I saw it the head of Tony Stark was stolen or replaced by Cassian Andor's head in the package which was disappointing. I managed to get his towards the end of the year and at the timing of writing this, I'm missing the Iron Man 3, Ant-Man, and Infinity War sets. I'll have them by the time Endgame comes out I hope. I also got this through an online special for about $24 which was nice. Let's get into the review!

Review: Power Rangers Ninja Steel - Armored Rumble Tusk Zord

The Rumble Tusk Zord! Which is the main (or at least one of) reason why I got the other Armored figures. It's basically the Rumble Tusk Zord but with a lot more articulation. It doesn't turn into an elephant but he is his battle mode with the cannons on the shoulder. It might have taken me a while to get this figure but here it is! And honestly, it isn't disappointing, I'm pleased.

Review: Power Rangers Ninja Steel - Ninja Master Mode Red, Blue, Yellow, White, and Pink

Finally the Ninja Master Mode figures, much like the last set of figures, this review is late! Mostly because I just recently got back from Orlando, it was a nice vacation but once I returned I had a lot to do. Either way, I also finally got Ninja Master Mode Yellow after two attempts, my first one I ordered off of Ebay but the seller sent me the wrong figure so now I have 3 Calvins... I don't need that many, and on my second attempt, he didn't get to me until after I got back from vacation of Wednesday night. Still, I really like these figures, and they definitely look better than the armored ones. They're another way for Bandai to make extra money since more modes means more figures that collectors have to buy... like me! Are they worth it? Let's find out!

Review: Power Rangers Ninja Steel - Armored Red, Blue, and White Ranger

 After the Megazord is formed, the rangers take out their Ninja Master Power Stars to get into the newest of the Cockpit modes. The Cockpit modes started back in Power Rangers Samurai and continued in Dino Charge. Megaforce and Super Megaforce used regular Sentai Footage. As of now, Cockpit modes are just for the cockpit. They're also another way to make money off of fans like me who will buy anything that appears on the show, another one of which I'll review soon. This particular toy is just in the Armored line along with the Robo-Red Zord and Dragon Zord. The main gimmick of the line is just snap on armor, and 5" figures with action features. As of now, Red, Blue, and White have been released. There are prototypes of the others but they haven't been released, this is also the case with the Ninja Training Mode Figures. Either way, I liked these much more than I expected and with Toys R Us closing I took advantage of the sales and bought these, White was about $6 but Red and Blue were on "AUG" which meant that they weren't part of the "Toys R Us Catalog" so they were $20 instead of the $15. They cost me about 10 a piece... It's fine I guess...
