I wonder if Bandai has stopped producing Kibaranger. Was the MMPR version originally a mid 2013 release?

I think you'd be able right. I think I got mine in October, but it was through BBTS so it may have been out for a month before then.

Call it Mid-Late 2013 maybe?

I think they have stopped making them though. Can't see many places with stock. It was a limited run too.

That price makes me glad I've decided to wait for the Movie Legacy figures, even though I know they won't be up to figuarts standards.

Yep, you could pick up nearly four of the rangers for that. Should we assume he non-Tommy MMPR Figuarts aren't as popular? Some of the others were as low as USD $35 at one point. Would have been good to get them when the AUD was at parity or close to it. The Stage Act 4 Humanoid stands are also overpriced when sold through third party at Amazon. They want 30% more than the US RRP.

Firstly, if you want to grab some ToQger toys cheap HLJ is having a sale at the moment. I grabbed a ToQ-oh for 4062 yen.

Anyone seen the prices for an SH Figuarts Kibaranger/White Ranger recently? Some places are selling well above retail price:

I recently decided to get the set of SH Figuarts MMPR figures. I have the 5 other Rangers in my POL, but now I need to find a Green Ranger and my choices are expensive just like with your the White Ranger. I could get a Dragon Ranger but I really want the MMPR version. Just one of those things you need to live with if your a collector.

Is there a difference between the 2?

IIRC, Dragon Ranger comes with optional parts to resemble his appearance in Akibaranger, but other than that there is none. But if Delta is wanting to display them in package, a JPN Dragon Ranger will stand out like a sore thumb.

I know what you mean. The MMPR packaging is nice and consistent. Don't understand why some of Pink Ranger's box lettering is blue. The box dimensions for both Zyuranger and MMPR seem to be the same though.

Titans showed up today. After seeing him in person I'd say the tampos and QC on him are of the highest quality. A similar example in the Transformers world is the GT Alternity line. They cost $100 each but the paint job is the highest detail and best QCed we have in Transformers. Titanus is on that level. But I really wish there was no diecast in him, or at least have the diecast anywhere but on the Megazord's body. With the weight of the Dragonzord and those parts from Titanus I know I'll need to at least pull him apart and repair the joints every so often.
