So I got my green ranger one today. The coins are nice but not as nice as the ones that Click over on ranger board makes. They look like they have a gloss on the emblem part. However, I'm not sure if the later versions of the regular Legacy Morphers do this but the Green a Ranger one plays the whole theme song when you press the button as opposed to my regular morpher which only plays when you have the button pressed. The gold plates are nice, but I swapped mine out for Clicks gold one to match my other morpher. If you guys want a full review I'd gladly do one. Never did a review before but I'd like to.

The Tigerzord coin is the green ranger morpher. If anyone has Clicks plates for the regular Morpher you're going to need to mod the Green Ranger morpher a little bit to make the plates fit. I had to file the black slide to make the plates fit.


Also does anyone still need a legacy megazord? My TRU has one left.

There were two versions of the normal morpher made, one you held down and one than you pressed; my normal morpher is that type too.

Both the BBTS pre-orders for the Dragonzord and the Dragon Dagger have been dropped to $89.99. Not an uncommon sight with BBTS.

That is why I refuse to touch bbts; they bump up prices to see who buys it, then they put prices down when sales drop, they are just ebay scammers with a website imo.

That is not why BBTS does it. They usually have a high price at first when they don't know the wholesale/msrp price they'll be getting on the toy. When the wholesale/msrp price is lower than they expected, they'll lower the price on their site too. It's not like anyone who preordered these toys at $120 are going to pay that, they'll be paying the $90 currently listed.

This goes back to the Masterpiece Soundwave they had on preorder awhile back. They estimated the toy costing a lot less than the msrp actually came out to be. They honored the low preorder price they had on the site and took a loss on it for everyone who preordered early.

 

[Big Deano]

I still dont trust them, they always seem to be more expensive than anywhere else.

 

[Silrian]

How else could they afford aaaaaall those ads everyfreakinwhere?

 

[Big Deano]

Well, since news seems slow after yellows announcement, I thought I would add the male versions pics to this thread to show the difference, along with what both versions come with:

 

[SanShouXMA]

Wait the male yellow comes with a power axe? Does the MMPR yellow?

 

[Big Deano]

Both versions do, thats the cannon mode to combine to make the power cannon.

 

[redleo]

does anyone know where the cheapest place to buy the male tiger yellow ranger?

 

[Big Deano]

He wont be cheap anywhere that openly stocks him as he and all the others are exclusives in Japan. Cheapest I seen was around £40.

 

[redleo]

i was afraid of that, sucks that they didnt make her the chase, over him

 

[Big Deano]

Well the female one is a PR release, the male is sentai, and the PR releases are all regular releases, cant expect them to change that to suit everyone else.

 

[lerath666]

I FULLY expect Male yellow to be teh SDCC figure for power rangers this year.

 

[Big Deano]

I dont see that happening, America got told they were getting female instead of male, wouldnt be fair if America got both.

I for one am happy they made a female just for us PR fans, shows they do repsect that half of the fan base.

 

[redleo]

was the footage used of the yellow all new? i mean had a new suit actor for the takes , im not talking about the unhelmeted shots cause sh has yet to make unmasked rangers.

 

[Big Deano]

Season two of mmpr had a mix of zyu2 footage (male) and american made footage with a female actress, season 3 was almost if not all female.

 

[redleo]

yea so the verison was in the us too.
