For those who don't know, Masters of the Universe is He-Man and for years now Mattel had been releasing specially molded and articulated figures, based on the animated series and old toys. Bandai America has already release collector figures under the Super Legend label, some were chase figures (like Lord Zedd, Green Ranger, White Ranger, Gold Ranger, Titanium Ranger, etc.) and some were large statues (RPM Red, Black and Green MMPR Ranger). Here are some figures every fan wished was made, there is a poll this week for this.
What figures would you like made for collectors of Power Rangers ala Masters of the Universe Classics?
Psycho Red
I put realistically one figure because they might not do all five. And Red is always the mascot/figurehead. The Psychos have been highly sought for.

Movie Red
If they could make a miniature version for McDonalds, I am sure they can do a 4 incher or a 10 incher preferably, a Figuarts-esque figure would be cool.
Movie White

All MMPRtM Rangers
The reason I had split poll choices, is because realistically they might not do all the figures, but here is the fat chance choice.
As I said before, it is not much a difference than the show version but I think a figure looking this cool would be awesome.
Movie Goldar
I like his stream-lined look and the MMPR 2010 figure sort of looked like this.

Ivan Ooze
I know he already had a figure, but it would had been nice one that wasn't just three shades of purple and one that was more articulated and that came with his pipe.
Thrax
One would ask why would anyone want this ugly mug, but it would fit nicely with Lord Zedd and Rita Repulsa, with his parents.

White Mystic Ranger
Even though higher ups might not think boys would want to buy a figure of her, but maybe they might think collectors would.
Nova Ranger
She appeared in one episode but I still think she has a cool design.

Piranhatron
From Turbo, they were American-made and it would be great addition to grunt collection. Maybe I should had put the Rinshi too....
Quantron
From Space, it would make a good addition to the grunt collection.
Stingwinger
From Lost Galaxy, it would make a good addition to the grunt collection.
Tyrannodrone
From Dino Thunder, it would make a good addition to the grunt collection.
King Mondo
Dark Specter
I would really love a Kat Ranger. She was pretty cool in SPD, and had a nice suit design.
ReplyDeleteOverall, the entire idea of a new collector line is great. Bonus points if they're in-scale with the current Samurai figures. HOWEVER, I do NOT want Mattel's online distribution, it's crazy!
You don't even need to use Masters of the Universe Classics as a comparison. Bandai already makes a line of super-articulated action figures based on classic designs aimed at collectors: ThunderCats Classics. When I saw those I immediately started hoping Bandai would give the same treatment to Power Rangers.
ReplyDeleteAs for your suggestions, I would gladly buy any of those, except maybe the U.S.-only footsoldiers.
