    I liked Power Rangers as a kid, and still have the Megazords up until the Astro Megazord kept in a box in my room. Have actually been meaning to sell them off, as I'll be moving soon, and won't have room for them/not really interested in them anymore. Although they were always quite fun...

    Those 3 toys I've wanted for about 17 odd years, well, now I have 2 of them but no where near that Minty mint condition!

    I don't suppose you ever did sell those did you Seraphim?


    Well, at the last Parramatta Collectors Fair I managed to spend my entire $10 budget on a toy that had alluded me for 17 years...
    That was the Green Ranger's Dragon Zord from the MMPR era and the only thing he was missing apart from a couple of stickers was the base and handle to his Drill-Polearm weapon, apart from that he was in awesome condition I thought.
    Today, courtesy of a recent eBay win, I've been able to add his former nemesis turned ally in The Megazord, comprising of:

    Apart from the Wave 2 Unchromed Sword:
    The Pteranodon: Missing 2x Feet Missiles and both Left and Right wings.
    The Mammoth: Complete!
    The Sabretooth Tiger: Complete!
    The Tricera-Tank: Missing both Left and Right Horns and Chrome Tail Cannon Module
    The Tyrannosaur: Missing Red Tip of Tail






    Dragon Zord and Megazord:





    The Dragon-Megazord:





    The Super-Megazord:




    Though there is a lot of hate for this series, it certainly made more money than G2 ever did and helped to fill the void between G1 and Beast Wars for me as a kid, but alas, like most toys for me - They were way to expensive for my parents to consider. For absolute bricks, these guys are great display items and are rather play friendly but after the first 3 seasons, I lost interest very quickly with Power Rangers.

    If anyone believes they could possibly help me out in obtaining any of the missing pieces I need, or maybe have some better condition figures, Tytanus or any of the Thunderzords that they'd like to offload? - Please let me know.

    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.

    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

    Aside from the odd mix-and-match female Rangers exclusive to TRU, the last major release of ladies was back in the Operation Overdrive toyline.

    It's cool that we're actually getting what looks like a full Power Rangers toyline. It's even being released at about the same time the show is on TV!

    If they release regular versions of the Rangers, I'd buy 'em... and pretend they're the Shinkenger characters.
