Alright then. I doubt my store has it yet, but I'll check. The NE always gets **** last.

 

[Shawpaw]

They are just now hitting stores. If you don't end up finding one, you can have one of mine

 

[Snake Plissken]

I got the normal version PO'd at BBTS. I hate that these aren't on the Toys R Us site. I just did live chat with them and I would need a product number for them to look it up.

Where can we purchase this?

 

[Chapter 2099]

It's from X-Plus and runs about $300 - from the link Kiva gave me. Japan Exclusive. 16". Looks great, IMO....

But the JAKKS Pacific one is coming. It's DOUBLE the size (31") and 1/5th the price, coming in at $60. For me, the JAKKS is a no-brainer. I'm in the minority though. I respect the look for the X-Plus, but I can't justify the price difference.

 

[Shawpaw]

Xplus hust looks more nostalgic to me. I collect nostalgia moreso than anything.

 

[Snake Plissken]

As beautiful as that is, it's too much for an X Plus. I can live with the Legacy version.

 

[Shawpaw]

I bet you can get it cheaper on other sites. I'll post when I find it.

Is it the head of the JAKKS that you guys don't like?

I really don't see a big difference between these two. I see differences....yes. But when I look at both, it still 'bring me back.' So my thing is, why spend $300, when I can spend $60 - and it's double the size. The Megazord is meant to be big. That's what JAKKS is giving us. So if anything, I would think it's the JAKKS' that bring more nostalgia to the table.

The Legacy Megazord is literally 3 inches smaller than the X-Plus. Why pay $300 for something you already have? That's simplifying it, but still.

And these are genuine questions here. I'm not trying to attack anyone. I respect everyone's opinion. The X-Plus definitely looks cool - I like both.

 

[Shawpaw]

I dont feel attacked at all brother . Given I don't have a ton of space to put collectibles, I'd rather have something that looks like the real thing and is smaller. I'm more quality than quantity. Not saying the $60 version isn't quality. But that the xplus looks more closely resembled to original

 

[Shawpaw]

Also, the legacy 1:1 red ranger helmet is $99 shipped on amazon right now. No tax or shipping costs.

I understand you are trying to justify skipping the Xplus because a cheaper alternative is there. But the Jakks version looks like a toy of the Megazord. It doesnt actually look like it IS the megazord like the Xplus. The Jakks version has inaccurate arms, big clown feet, and overall anime proportions. And where can you display a 2ft tall toy?

The jakks version is fine for 60. infact its great. But if we completely removed cost from the situation i dont think the Jakks version has anything over the Daizyujin as a display piece

 

[Chapter 2099]

Oh, I'd find a place to display a 2 ft-tall Megazord....I'd MAKE space. jk

I think my thing is without a pic of the screen-used Megazord in front of me, the JAKKS looks just as good as the X-Plus. When I DO pull up a pic, I see the differences, but then I forget about it and remember the JAKKS is a 2-ft tall Megazord!!!

I get it though. I'm actually to see in-hand pics. Great time to be a MMPR fan!!!

Is Kiva's link still available? I have to say, it looks just like TV show when a person was in the suit. I didn't realize it was that much. What does the Jakks version look like?

 

[Chapter 2099]

https://www.sideshowcollectors.com/forums/anime/160464-plus-zyuranger-morphin-power-ranger-3.html - Post 28 is Kiva's link for the X-Plus version.

And here's a link for pics of the JAKKS one: https://www.mureview.net/toy-fair-2016-jakks-pacific/

Bandai never got back to me about the replacement parts... ugh.
