For it's price Hasbro is doing a great job, they definitely need to step up on their qc issues though. I just received my MMPR Blue today and the diamonds on his chest is painted much lighter than Red, Pink and Yellow. The result is that the diamonds appear light blue rather than white....

The Trini Yellow Ranger Lighting was SO good. My favorite out of all of them.

I have always felt that the SH Figurarts figures from Bandai are easily the BEST figures. Bandai has been making Super Sentai/power rangers figures since the mid 1970s and even though the toys are more expensive than Hasbro or Super 7,, the quality of Japan's figures simply cannot be matched at all!!

While I personally am only interested in The Megazords in terms of buying toys, it's still very interesting to see the history of these figures.

I had all 6 of the ‘94 auto morph action figures. It was also good they made enemy action figures from various episodes of the first season. Those were better than the original 8 inch figures because they also had their power weapons instead of just their blade blasters.

Even though I liked the franchise has a kid I have to confess to having zero Nostalgia for it but your enthusiasm keeps me coming back to watch the videos

It would be fantastic to get some Ninjetti figures.

THATs what I call informative and entertaining to watch - thank you!

Lightning Collection. Scales well with other 6' lines. Fair attempts at the unmorphed faces (but they fucked up Kimberly). Drakkon is an incredible figure! Perhaps the best of them all. Good prices.

If hasbro was smart they would redo mmpr as a animated series or movie.

The only real complaint I have with the Lightning Collection is the parts that pass for "gold" on Scorpina and Goldar. Don't know if it's the paint or plastic but they look kind of cheap compared to the rest of the figure. Shame because they're otherwise really good. The butterfly joints might be a bit weird but at least we have them, they still aren't standard in a lot of 6" scale figures.

Great video! I love your deep dives into the toylines. The S.H. Figuarts are definitely the best. However, I really love the new Lightning Collection figures. Also, I cannot believe that it took us 20 years to get good MMPR The Movie figures. Before the Legacy figures, the most screen accurate toys were the McDonald's Happy Meal toys. As for the "female figure problem", I think Hasbro have figured it out. Although we only got 1 female figure in the first year (MMPR Pink), we have at least 3 female figures coming this year (MMPR Yellow, Ranger Slayer, Rita Repulsa). And In Space Yellow is rumored as well. The female figures have been limited to 1 per case to avoid becoming "peg warmers". And Rita is a retail exclusive. It seems to be working. Although, it does make these figures a bit harder to find.

very informative and complete video, I want to complete the MMPR team from the lightning collection since I never was able to complete the team from the SH figuarts, only got the Red and Green rangers of the 25 anniversary re-release

My top 4 pick will be: 1. 1/6 scale by acetoyz 2. Sh figuarts 3. 8inch 1993 figures 4. Lightning collection

The lightning collection is my favorite because the proportions are right

For me, the new 'golden era' of power rangers toys was from around 2014- 16, with the legacy zords, and figures. There were exclusives and even the secondary market seemed to be at their highest. It feels like ever since the movie came out the interest hasn't been the same. There's plenty of people that appreciate the hasbro stuff. But to me it doesn't feel the same as when the Legacy line was getting into things

Personally my favorites are the sh figuarts, lightning collection, the Tommy Legacy Morpher, the lightning collection core 5 Morpher, Legacy Megazord, Legacy Dragonzord, Legacy blade blaster, and the Zyuranger version of the core 5 Legacy Morpher.

Fascinating. Mechanical engineering at its best.

Fantastic retrospective. Have not had that issue with my Trini but I only have swapped the head out maybe twice. She does seem to be STUPID hard to find over here though. Great vid as always.

1:20 Top 10 pictures take before an accident.

Definitely Lightning Collection. Even if they're not perfect, you get the most bang for your buck. Plus the 3D-printing/customs scene fixes some of the problems people have with them.

Great job on the history of these figures! This video must have taken a long time. Appreciate your contributions to PR youtube content.

The good thing about hasbro is that they don’t have a premium line for Marvel or Star Wars so there is no worrying about them creating one for the rangers so everything will be relatively cheap

Hasbro has all the licenses an they are killing it with all their lines. I can’t collect them all but power rangers is one line I’m definitely going for.

And the Lord Drakkon figure wasn't short supplied due to the end of the license. Entertainment Earth was given exclusivity, which they shared with Power Morphicon. Power Morphicon got to deliver the figures first at the convention. They oversold their allotment, completely ignoring those who preordered it, with the hopes that Entertainment Earth would simply just give them the remainder of the order. Entertainment Earth said no, as they needed to fulfill their orders, and Power Morphicon tried to force the preorders to take on partial refunds or items that they couldn't sell at the convention.

The best are the vintage 8 inch from 1993, and the 94 Auto Morphin Series. And The Legacy Thunder Megazord and Ninja Megazords

I’m praying that Hasbro does something like Zordbuilder, yet much more versatile, posable, and stable. Combining Zordbuilder Zords is satisfying and fun, yet the actual joints and connections need a bit of work in terms of pose ability and stability

I had (or still do) the Auto Morphin Black Ranger. It was the first figure line here in the Netherlands from Power Rangers back in the day. Presumably because the show only started here back in '95 / '96

My man predicted the Metallic Armor figures five months early.

Great review! That's why your channel keep growing! 👏👏👏. For me the original automorphy are just so classical. It's a must have... But the SH are definitely the best ever!

My only criticism about the MMPR Lightning Collection figures is they could've just had red, black, and yellow come with interchangeable civilian heads since different people wore those suits (I know the armored version black ranger suit was only worn by Zack), but I can totally see them re-releasing those ones with the Rocky, Adam, and Aisha heads because you'll get more people to buy that way.

For the lightning collection blade blasters, the holster versions from the Legacy figures are the same scale, so you can just steal them from the inferior figures if you already bought them. There’s also a set on Shapeways you can buy that comes with a set of 5 in their sword mode for like $20. Pricey, granted, but they’re nice to have since it gives you all the options.

SH. Figurearts and Auto Morphin are really the best in my opinion.

The lightning collection is my favorite because the proportions are right And the SH figure arts

Dude no doubt possible: the SH Figuarts MMPR are the best imo. Unmatched. And the Ace Toys ones are really nice. The first flipheads from Bandai are also very good and have a lot of charm, still better than a lot of the stuff that came out after. The rest is pure garbage. I don't like the Lightning Collection Rangers, but I love the villains. They look perfect with the Figuarts Rangers.

I want to see RPM and Turbo figures. I'm still shocked Bandai Legacy Collection done ZEO and PRIS.

I'd say Bandai Legacy are Best far as affordability, and Original 1993- 94 5 inch auto morph and 8 inch deluxe are also my favorites

New to the channel and new to power ranger collecting thanks so much for the info !!

I like the ReAction 3¾"scale figures.

I had the same issue with my LC yellow ranger, I did end up fixing it by heating it up so. But great video

I still think the figuarts are the best for what they are trying to do. They definitely still had their issues though. Ace Toys NAILED Yellow ranger's helmet, but no company has managed to get the visor on MMPR Red correct if you ask me, after all these years--so that's a shame. Ideally, I'd love for Tamashii Nations to revisit the sentai line with everything they've improved on in the last 6+ years and give us full team box sets. This way there is no worry over whether we'll complete the team and they can sell all the accessories under a premium price.

The best MMPR figures Bandai created were the movie ones they look so good

The legacy line was great BUUUUT, the only complaint I had was the fact that they had incompleted teams, and the figures were too... buff. The lighting collection is almost gold but the only two complaints I have is that they can't put their arms all the way down, and the spandex that they wear look too baggy

I honestly wish I got the Auto morphing PR toys in the 90's. Those were so cool and to this day I still regret not getting them. Hasbro is hitting a homerun with the MMPR Lightning collection. I bought the LC White Ranger and aside from a bit of head wobble in my copy it's honestly solid. And the LC Lord Drakkon one is beyond perfection. I hope in the near future they release a Lightning Collection Quantum Ranger. Ever since Time Force red was announced I was really excited for the possibility of a LC Eric Myers figure. Although I will say that Quality control is an issue and I hope it's addressed in the near future. I'm not sure if it's possible but it would be cool if Hasbro re-released reissues of the old auto morphing Power Ranger toys kind like they did with the Real Ghostbusters figures(If possible). Overall really good video. Very informative.

The only issue I have with the lighting collection Paint apps Only a few extra hands

Been waiting for something like this

Orginal toys and figuarts are my favorites

The legacy figures were also not ideal in terms of release because of the build-a-megazord. It was a cool idea, but either release the entire team in one or two waves or don't do build-a-megazord. Hasbro pulls off sporadic releases because it's an anthology series that has no connective tissue.

Only true issue I have with lightning is how hard it is to get Drakkon, trini, & ranger slayer

Hasbro needs to make more Monsters from the shows.

Maybe we might see the Lightning Collection do a figure of the Red and Black MMPR Sentries

There was also and 8 inch line with light up belt buckles but they were only released in Europe. I hope Hasbro does the 1995 film suits along with the ninja ones!

I only want the original suited rangers. The original 5 red, blue, black yellow, and pink. So far I have the blue on preorder, red and loord zed are on the way. They have to make the black ranger that is all i need for the original set.

I still got the auto morph green ranger for $5.00 at gamestop last year.

Gotta agree LC is the best yet, has some defects, but the heads and villains make up for it. The Figuarts are too small and expensive, would only buy them if they came back with full teams of Sentai shows that weren't adapted (like Dairanger).

Do you know what I would like to see a release of even though it would cost an arm, a leg and probably an eye: full scale Power Blaster. We've seen the full size Power Sword. Which is cool, but Zack's Axe Blaster was always the coolest weapon to me

I mostly go for the Zords but I have been picking up random Lightning figures. Lord Zedd is the only one I have atm, but I am looking for Drakkon and Ranger Slayer when she comes out. Might pick up Magna Defender too.

Thanks for this video, it’s extremely informative for a beginner like me. Looking for the history of MMPR was a minefield before. I like the look of the SH Figuarts but I think I’ve missed the boat, their scarce and damn expensive. Lightning looks a decent alternative.

Best for display-S H Figuarts Best for play and variety-Lightning Collection

I can assume that we will get a regular mmpr black ranger in wave 6

I like the auto morph once’s

If you guys really live power rangers and love high-quality articulated figures look up 1000toys collaboration with nights of the slice they have a power ranger x Karman rider vibe to them.

The Power Rangers Heroes Series 3 figures weren't a re-release. They were redux of the solid 5 inch metallic figures that you also neglected to mention. Edit: You mentioned the movie figures later in the video.

Takes me back....

I wish Bandai of Japan would do a release of the SHF figures. Not just red, white and green but the whole team! It’s like they actively hate the people who are actually trying to buy Power Ranger/super sentai figures

I want a 1969 MMPR. I really want a Grace sterling head sculpt.

3:55 and dragon shield blue cool but odd at the same time Edit: since that wasn't even in mighty morphin at all

I never collected Power Rangers figures because their scaling is all over. I liked the 4 inch figures. They mix in well my marvel universe figures. But they were still bulky.

1995 Bandai Alien figures.

So are the 4 inch versions from 1993 considered the first MMPR action figures? They were only released in Europe though? Thanks in advance.

Which MMPR figures are the best? For me, the answer is pretty simple. I think the SH Figuarts releases are the best we've gotten and probably the best we'll ever get. Every figure is accurately detailed and fully painted. Even their weapons got the same treatment. They even came with spare weapons so you can combine them to form the Power Blaster. Yes, they're a little on the expensive side even when newly released, but worth it.

Bro, KZfaq "Power Rangers Ace Toyz"... they're not licensed but every MMPR fan still needs to know about 'em... the Box Set and Green & White are MUST haves.

Love the movie versions

1st let me say i hate that they never released the lost galaxy 4 inch figure, like seriously y tf not?! But ive been collecting slice 2009 3.75 to 4 inch figures, and they are honestly my favorites, yes they did have to grow on me at 1st; and yes the articulation could always be a bit better even though i know that wouldve increased the price point, but they and still are some of the best figures weve gotten since the end of bandai, hasbro thus far, and the lighting collection are great, but now being a small scale collector i wish they would give us more figures in the 4 inch/ 3.75 scale like they do with kamen rider, it can give people a opinion

We called #3 Flip Heads

Mezco's recent announcement of the Green Ranger for their ONE:12 line would appear to be the new "Best Choice" for Power Ranger figures... although it's price point is sure to be a premium

Bandai S.H. Figuarts Mighty Morphin Power Rangers are the best; thankfully I bought them before they were scalped, the worst are the 2010 figures during the Disney era.

I've never been a fan of the overly muscular designs of a lot of these figures. Same in the comics and other media. I always wondered what show the designers were referencing cause it sure as Hell wasn't Power Rangers. Lol

I want them to make movie accurate figures I got the ones from the show

I wish the would release different morpher's.

Until Lightning Collection various attempts to do Power Rangers were all over the place in terms of scale. I was tempted by the Legacy Collection, but because they didn't include the Civilian heads I passed on them. This resulted in me almost not paying attention to the Lightning Collection which came along while the Legacy Collection was still on the shelves around here. I missed Shadow Ranger and barely got White Ranger Tommy. Because Lightning Collection does have the Civilian heads, even though not all are the best, IMHO, Lightning Collection IS the best! Also, some of the Lightning heads, not all, can be used on Marvel Legends for Army Building purposes. I have made a small 'Yancy Street Gang' using Marvel bodies and Power Rangers heads. Some figures I have missed because they are sold out in 5 minutes! I am not collecting all of the teams. I am not collecting Beast Morphers or Dino Fury because I haven't seen them yet, as I watch things on DVD. So, I have no connection to them. I also have passed on Dino Charge because I reasoned, it's a 10 member team that will take forever to complete. Ironically, I am about to have a 10 member MMPR team. Original 5, White Ranger Tommy, Green Ranger I say is David Trueheart his brother, Yellow Aisha, Pink Katherine, and Pink April O'Neil as April O'Neil Hart, Kimberly's older sister using their mothers middle name as a reporter. LOL 10 Member MMPR team! 😀🤓😁😆😃🤠

you mean Saban and Bandai America :)... Bandai Japan makes figures following the sentai proportions and not the muscular proportions. in terms of over-all quality I really am into the sh figuarts sad though that they do not produce them anymore long before Hasbro became the new owners of power rangers. I gave the lightning collection a chance but quality control issues put me "off the grid" hehehehehehe

Look im not here to debate female figures but bandai is right female figures dont sell well ive noticed this for years its makes sense you dont see many young chaps goin in the store sayin wow i cant wait to get a pink ranger😂 , great video I remember when MMPR dropped it shook the kid and toy world it was amazing and the toys were so hard to find it sucked for kids , those ace figures are bar none the most accurate they are amazing

This video popped into my feed today for whatever reason and I hadn't seen it. 17:47 How does it feel being a fortune teller?

They really need to rerelease the yellow and blue ranger there so expensive on the secondary market

I still have the gun that can turn to sword since 1996

2010 ranger figures are the best The Action Feature Evil Space Aliens villain wise. Deluxe villain were awesome as well but I like the action feature ones size wise. If Hasbro decides to rerelease them, include Saliguana, Fighting Flea, and King Sphinx in that size of the Action Feature ones.

So far, outside of MMPR and fan favorites like Drakkon and Ranger Slayer, it seems like the characters are mostly Red and 6th Rangers. (Beast Morphers makes sense because it is currently airing.) Zeo Blue is the first heritage character to break that mold. What do you think their process is for pick what to make?

We need a Green Ninjeti they made a physco Green figure so they need to make it happen

Have u noticed how the white parts in the Lightning collection turn yellow quite easily?

I remember my cousin had the reversioned green ranger

Just a friendly reminder that you actually foresaw the Remastered Collection

Enjoyed your video. Im glad they came out with the Lighting collection. Definatley got me into recollecting new Rangers. I only have the MMPR figures. I dare not to get others and open another can of worms, but glad I got the MMPR. I also love those big dolls that came out, ut they are big bucks.

This video kinda predicted the remastered figures

I love them.

Detail wise, ill go for SH figuarts especially if im gonna display it on a glass cab with my Soul of CHOGOKIN, but for articulation ill go with Lightning Collection and lastly automorphin for Nostalgia (best to keep it mint sealed on box) I did bought a Legacy Metallic blue Ranger just for the Lance to be used by my SH figuarts blue (because shf blue accessories sucks)

Threezero are probably the best, but they're in 1/6 scale.

I'm sorry to correct you but the revision of mmpr ended at episode 32 a little bit after green with evil

Good video

Wait the mighty morphin red ranger in megaforce was meant to be a chase figure? It shelf warmed like crazy at my local Entertainer to the point I picked it up for £2.99.
