If anyone cares the new series Samurai is finally out in Australia and not just at TRU (Shock horror!) so yeah the main Megazord is going for 40 bucks at TRU from what I saw that's a pretty damn good price for a toy that big.

How long has that one that's on shelves now been 'coming soon'?
I could have sworn i saw it like 4 years ago when i was on holiday in Japan...!
Shinkenger the japanese version of Samurai came out in Japan in like 2009 from memory.
Also a better Megazord toy than the Samurai version lol.
Yeah, I lost it when I saw the complete Team in K-Mart, I can't remember the last time I saw figures of the Female Power Rangers at Aussie Retail. I'm also fairly certain that the new MMPR toys are not going to be sold here.
only 2010 MMPR stuff I saw (and still see as it was TRU exclusives they cant seem to sell) was
- the Bikes
- Basic barely posable figures
- Red ranger with a Trex arm
- Green with a dragon as armor
- Black with mammoth shoulders
- mix and morph dragon morpher or something
and thats it. never saw a 2010 Megazord anywhere
growing up Power Rangers were 1/4 of my world (the other 3/4 were Beast Wars, Pokemon and Digimon)
but even though I loved the show i never got any power rangers toys (except for some KO head flipping rangers) my best friend however had all the megazords. I'd go over to his house all the time to play with them.
I eventually got the Turbo Megazord but that was all.
Before he moved to Japan my friend gave me his Ninja Megazord (since it's the only one that still has all it's pieces) he now stands alongside Turbo Megazord.
If it hadnt been for Power Rangers i never would have gotten into Super Sentai and Kamen Rider, which NOW make up a big part of my world.
During my trip to Japan last year i managed to collect the various parts to Engine Sentai Go-Onger's Engine-Oh G9 now i just need the other 3 to make the monstrously large G12
i tried watching Power Rangers Samurai when it first started but it felt too much like Shinkenger so i couldnt watch it (not that it was bad but it felt like i had already seen it)
hopefully the next series will be better (I haven't seen Goseiger yet so it will feel new and interesting, i hope)
speaking of Samurai/Shinkenger are Shinken-Oh and Samurai Megazord the same toy or are they differant?
I remember buying quite a few Supertrain Zords and selling to americans for crazy $ back in ... 2002?
Think that was the last time I saw MMPR locally until Samurai turned up here as well.
Oh I know, I have the OO team, and the SPD team and the Mystic Force Team. Essentially if I can get all five (Or Six, or sometimes Seven) rangers without having to resort to ebay I buy them on sight. I even have the big lump of Plastic that is Bandai USA's Drivemax Megazord.
