That Lord Zed is absolutely beautiful....
They all look great.... I don’t do Power Rangers but damn if these aren’t tempting the hell out of me.
I concur. The only thing I don't dig is the little Z on top of their helmet point; it looks ridiculous. Other than that, it's awesome.
I just love how you basically review anything
If it's toys, I'll give it a shot, haha.
What's something he hasn't touched yet? Let's get together and get robo a hot toys!
Different reviews = different viewers = more subscribers
@@mahoutsuguy863 I actually reviewed the Hot Toys movie Deadpool a couple of years ago, haha! I really do try anything, at least once.
@@someguy7567 There's that, but I honestly really do like giving different lines a spin. I may not like the property or the line, but if I run across some nifty articulation or paint app I can file that away for future mention. I don't like talking about specific things on toys without having at least some frame of reference. Plus I get to play with more toys, heh.
After years of waiting, we finally get an articulated Lord Zedd figure and it does not disappoint. Thanks Hasbro. Now just make Ecliptor and Trakeena figures, and I'll be set.
I have the white ranger, it’s friggin awesome!!!!
I definitely recommend watching the Power Rangers SPD season Robo, it's on Netflix, it's only 38 episodes, and it's genuinely a really good show. I watched it growing up and just last week I binge watched the season in two days, holds up very well.
These figures are actually really cool like very good articulations , Better than Marvel Legends and good details and accessories, good job Hasbro
I will buy all of the Mighty Morphing characters that are released with this line. The quality and articulation for this price point made me purchase my first Power Rangers products in like 10 years lol. Great figures. Great nostalgia.
I didnt see it in the comments, but the reason the dragon head is in the bottom is when the sword is in the sheath it's on top. You always want the blade facing up when in the sheath so when drawn you are not dulling it.
I’ve never watched Power Rangers but I also bought Lord Zedd based on how great that figure looks.
Shadow rangers name is doggy Kruger, reds is Tyler, white is tommy, and Zedd is Zedd, and Tommy’s sword is Saba
Jaina Solo has the different Torso articulation, so did the 12 inch Marvel Legends. I prefer it to the hinge and swivel, hopefully Hasbro will implement in their other two lines in full.
I copped Zedd soon as I saw him. Love that figure. Def gonna get the others. No rush on the White Ranger since Tommy was never the Jesus Ranger to me that he is with other people.
I would still pick him fast if you plan to have it at all though, since the price for these things tends to go higher fast. For me, Jason was the best.
The little black thing with SPD on it is a badge. Its SUPPOSED to open up to reveal a yes or no in order to punish the monster. Also, it's a dog head on the sword (it's usually chained up and opens for the final attack, but missed opportunity). But hell yes the Kruger head is great lol. Sorry for the spam, I'm responding as I watch lol
This new torso combo of ball joint + low ab crunch will be on new ML Classic Thor and Cap =)
"Have I ever been known to research?" LOL! You and me, both Robo! Again, humorous and informative reviews! Always a pleasure watching you work (play).
Shadow Ranger Anubis "Doggy" Cruger got me into the line too. Now I got a full mmpr team, most of Dino Thunder, and most or SPD. As well as every Tommy Oliver so far.
“Come on baby hold together” amazing that made laugh my ass off
Cool to see Power Ranger back in the game, I still have the OG Pterodacyl White Ranger from back in the day but it's missing his wings
I was hoping you would review these. From the weekelys you did with this guys I thought you weren't interested. Glad you did. I can't wait for these to come to Australia. Love the review. Keep it up.
Btw, just wanted to tell you that the black spd thing is his morpher/badge. Thought it can help you with posing him using the open left hand to hold it. The bomb from lord zedd is his growth bomb, he uses that to make monsters grow (maybe you can use that for your next weekly intro hehe).
yes torso articulation is the same as DC Icons. Makes me think Icons is really better than Essentials.
DC Icons was excellent. Dc Collectibles screwed the pooch canceling that line.
blood heaven
Unique sculpts, good articulation, great accessories? Heck yeah DC Icons is better than Essentials
@@SpoonDude i do hope they bring it back. taller doesn't equate to better, apparently. Aside from the fact that they (the last few waves that is) fit well with Marvel Legends, they stand really well on their own.
Why is my video stuck at 360p, LOL. It's been like 5 hours since the upload :(
I know, UA-cam hates me. I definitely didn't upload it in 360p.
I know this is a month old but I’m just gonna say this to get it out of the way. So, for mmpr white (mighty morphin white) his sword is Saba and helps him with his battles against monsters. He can speak to him and be a great weapon. The effect piece, idk what that’s from but it looks cool. Interchangeable head is the civilian or unmasked tommy Oliver head.
Next, mmpr lord zedd or just lord zedd. He comes with his staff and if it has a name, let me know. The red lightning piece goes really well with it and holds on very nice. The open hand for the left side is for his growth bombs. These are used to make monsters bigger so the megazords fight them.
Now we move on to Shadow ranger from S.P.D or Space Patrol Delta. His real name is Doggie Cruger, idk what planet he comes from so do tell me that if possible. This is where the neck and unmasked head come from. He also has his shadow saber which is his sword. He also comes with his morpher which was that black phone as you saw in the video. Unfortunately the slider on this should be on the right bottom instead of the left but it’s not that big of a deal. This was also used to judge if a monster was guilty of committing a crime. The hand for the right side with the two fingers up is used for his signature pose, at least that’s what I think. He also has the effect for his sword piece and I think I heard from somewhere that it’s used for some specific moment in the show but idk if it is so uhh... let’s just move on to the last figure that way I can get done with this comment.
And finally, Dino Charge red. The gun is his Dino charge morpher where when they put in a Dino charger or battery as most people have said, they morph. It’s also used as a blaster. Next is the Dino saber. This was his sword and was also able to combine to the morpher but obviously that doesn’t do that on the figure. Now for the electric piece, idk if this appeared on the show or not but it does look cool on the saber. I’m also unsure of what’s happening with some of his hands so forgive me on that. And finally, the unmasked Tyler Nabrodo head, at least that’s what I think his last name is.
So hopefully this cleared cleared some issues with people not knowing what some of these things. Now I need to stop typing before my thumbs get cramps!
I'm glad that you did these reviews. Like your branching out into more series. Hope you continue coverage of this line. Star wars black series is always my favorite.
When I see figures like these or the Overwatch ones, I feel I'm wasting my money with Maverl Legends. For the 20 bucks price, this figures look to be a smarther investment. That doesn't mean I'll stop collecting ML, actualy some of them are very awesome like the new Beast, Omega red, Cable, Thing, Hercules, etc.
Awesome review, Robo; and like the disclaimer at the beginning! 👍
I think you knowing nothing (or next to nothing) about the franchise is better. You looked at them as what they are, figures. Liked the way you pointed out the way some joints are tighter than others; I've seen several reviews on these and no one pointed it out even though I definitely noticed this issue (not really "issue" but I can't think of another word) on mines.
I still frequent the Fwoosh website more than the channel, but I gotta admit you do host your videos with a special enthusiasm I enjoy.
6:58 that's a spd morpher. It used to morph people into power rangers and give them powers.
I grabbed the Shadow Ranger to check out articulation myself. Hope they do transition it into Legends.
On the red ranger that left hand is a posing hand lol part of his morph pose, shadow rangers sword that’s a dog not a dragon and the black thing with spd on it is his badge that imprisons the monsters lol and it’s supposed to be upside down
For those stiff joints use silicone shock oil, it helps loosen them up just enough so that they don't snap off. Zedd is the one I'm looking forward to the most, he just needs a few touch ups
Red Ranger look like Rajesh from Big Bang Theory
I hope the future waves have better details on the ab sections.
The Shadow ranger looks cool, but the white and red ranger have stomachs that are entirely too smooth. They need some folds to look like cloth.
The material is spandex so it probably wouldn't create that many folds
Zedd us easily the best looking among this set, even with his dull red paintjob.
@Deception Thundercracker Same here, though I don't hate the more show accurate hasbro's going for here.
I repainted my Zedd the same day I bought him. Made his flesh and brain look meatier, turned his visor into a deep red, and painted the armor on his fingers.
He looks 10 times better now.
Can’t wait for that pink ranger!
I also know nothing about Power Rangers but that white ranger just looks like a sweet figure.
I just got the White Tiger Ranger figure, I noticed one of the butterfly joints was loose, but I fixed it. I had to remove the vest piece without cutting it; very tricky to do. I also like to add the mechanical design of the butterfly joints on these figures are superior to the marvel legends.
How did you remove the vest?
@@AudyAzfar
I first removed the arms with a hair dryer, which was tricky because the vest is made of a softer material & can melt easy; I was in a similar situation like this before where that happened. Once the arms are removed, you can slide the vest off the body. Now that I think about it, I suggest using boiling water instead of a hair dryer, melting will less likely happen & you will be able to get the whole arm off.
You were right about the White Ranger being sculpted first. They've been showing that one off since last Power Morphicon last year, much in advance of the rest. I had a few QC issues on mine, but overall I really dug them. The Red Ranger's human head is perfect, but yeah Doggie's head is fantastic!
Oh how things change indeed. Hit 30 and wanted nothing but stuff I loved as a kid.
Lord Zedd looks absolutely perfect! Can't wait to get him!
They better do both versions of Lord Drakkon......BETTER!!!!!
These figures imo have better articulation than Legends
How so?
That box art is by the one and only Tom Whalen.
So glad you got these Robo. Now you can do some actual watching/research into this awesome franchise. If you do (spoiler) you’ll get into Power Rangers’ source: Super Sentai. Then down the rabbit hole you’ll go....
Noted Power Rangers Super-Fan, Robo reviews the latest releases.
I was born in '93 so those Mighty Morphin Power Rangers figures are VERY nice
My Neck joint on the white ranger was super loose it was literally bobbling back and forth with no force. Had to use mod podge on it but seems better now.
Robo, it's funny that you go out of your way to make sure you let us know that you don't anything about the IP. Full transparency, as a long time toy collector I find that more than 75% of the stuff I end up liking usually begins with cool toys.
That dog head'd make for a solid Bothan custom base. I'd love to see Hasbro start including effects parts in the Black Series. That one Stormtrooper's a start, but if it became standard, along with alternate hands, and I'd gladly start paying $25 USD. I mean, I'm Canadian, so I already pay 30+, but I'd be okay with it.
I can’t wait for wave 2!
I've been waiting for this, despite your lack of knowledge on PR, I'm excited to see what you think of these on an action figure level. :D
I like the new face cam during reviews.
I'm easing into it, seeing what happens.
For anyone interested, here's a link to the artist who did the box art for this wave instagram.com/strongstuff/?hl=en
I'm hoping his involvement continues!
Power rangers in the mcu? Sign me up!!!
I wasn't interested in the Red Ranger at first, but that articulation, I'm gonna buy it just to support more use of the mold.
Edit: Love Jade Empire reference lol
Shared parts will come in later waves, though these do share the same joint molds
Both of those Tommy heads are something out of nightmares. I’m shocked that Figuarts messed it up too, hasbro sure but figuarts? Shocking
I received my Caliban Wave in six separate boxes(Beast sold out). Considering I had free shipping I was flabbergasted. I want Pulse to thrive and I don't see how eating the cost of six separate boxes arriving on the same day is going to ensure that.
*Middle-aged man vision simulation, bahahahaha, I'm right there with you Robo!
When the Ninja Storm Rangers show up, that's the time I get to spend for these awesome shit.
U already know bro
I will buy every figure they put out for ninja storm and mystic force and wild force those are so awesome
@@thegamewin100 bro Wild Force is my shit! I hope we do get figures for it tough, and fear we might not
Lord zedd articulation is crazy
I picked up Zedd and Anubis Cruger, they're both very cool figures. Zedd's just a great monster, and Cruger is just a character I've wanted as a good toy (especially the American version) for a long time. Hoping they reuse the head and neck bits for a black coat commander Cruger version.
im super happy with these minus the civy heads on the white and red rangers. They are taking a while to get to the UK though.
The krugar blade was designed so when shiefed the wolf head is facing up! I guess Saban didn't consider how it looked when the shadow ranger was wielding it. Which is kinda dumb but no one really seemed to care when SPD was on the air.
oh yeah Power Rangers is my jam its what I started collecting as a kid and im still going strong!
8:55 Mr. Fantastic likes that! ;)
I think a nice, light coat of clear matte paint would do wonders for those human head sculpts.
Totally agree in the bio. The general audience knows little beyond MMPR so its be helpful and smart
I don't know anything about Power Rangers beyond Mighty Morphin, but picked up the White Ranger today, it's amazing
I only know the original Power Rangers, but that Shadow Ranger looks so badass!
I don’t know Power Rangers but my favourite is probably the SPD one or the Dino one.
They're so awesome!!! Can't wait to get them. Love the videos!
I prefer the Go-Go Power Rangers.
They're much the same, but most of the fights take place in sleazy nightclubs.
fun fact: many actors that had roles in Super Sentai (the original japanese series Power Rangers came from) has done porn, i am not kidding
I really hope when I go to the store today that the shadow ranger is still available. He is my favorite. I tried to preorder it on Hasbro to get the deal,but it was sold out.
The Black SPD device is a morphed. It’s a dog head not a dragon head. The shadow ranger is a humanoid canine alien species
So happy to get great figures for us ranger collectors!
I think Zedd and White Rangers are my must buys, though I may stretch out beyond what I'm familiar with (Mainly the new comics) if we get Shattered Grid characters
I'm a little hesitant yet let's agree
Hasbro made dame great figures
wow this line is looking pretty sweet.
Awsome Action Figure review
I'm actually an expert in Power Rangers. The Red Ranger is actually called the Ketchup Ranger, The White one is the Mayo Ranger, The Green is the Relish Ranger, The Shadow one is actually known as The Rent-A-Ranger, and Lord Zed is really supposed to just be called Ed. Also you may just be a middle aged man reviewing toys but you do it well.
Haha, the Condiment Rangers.
@@TheFwoosh Ha! Now your getting it. I think we've been swindled. You did do your research.
Me 30 seconds into this review -- "Whoa whoa whoa HOLD UP WHERE'S ROBO'S HAT?"
I don't wear it a lot in the review booth, knock it around on the light and mic right there by my head.
Better to get 3 separate boxes than get the figures in a shitty bubble mailer like from amazon.
Robo i think you'll like that season when Tommy was the white ranger
Robo don't know Power Rangers....but like the Rock says, "IT DOESN'T MATTER!!"
The white Ranger is very nice !
I just need Lord Zedd
Hasbro Tommy head is better than the import which looks a bit chubby/ poofy but the matte paint on the import gives it that oomph
The zed thing is a growth grenade, it makes his monsters grow
Can't wait for the wolf ranger .
The Fwoosh Does the doggo head work well on a Marvel Legends Captain America body? Or the recent Beast? Or movie Captain Marvel? Or... hell, can we just get a Headswap Special vid showing it on different bodies? Y'know, FOR SCIENCE!
Also that Zedd lightning effect would look badass on Wolverine's claws as blood... 🤔
Planet Dann yes, hasbro does the same heads for all the swappable heads
1:55 Oh how things change
Same, from no interest in power rangers to just being interested in these figures, I will be picking these up when I get the extra cash coming up..
I hear alot people need Zedd since I heard he's only 1 per case. Guess I got lucky on him at the right time right place from a sealed box at Walmart.
That's exactly how I found mine too, gotta catch those cases early.
Yeah, I was in high school when it came out. I actually liked the other two Power Ranger-like shows more, but they were all cheesy as hell. Really just something to put on before school and laugh at it. I _never_ thought I'd buy a Power Rangers figure..until I saw Goldar. Well, then I had to order me a White Ranger.
Man, if only Hasbro did Legends in this caliber. The more kid franchise is being handled better than what us middle aged collectors dig more...the comic book stuff.
Commenting before I watch here, this should be fun.
Lookie there, I was right!
Every red I've seen has paint app errors on the chest, but that's what happens when you paint yellow on black
Hasbro needs to bring this type of articulation for the black series
Why is it so entertaining just to watch you talk😂
His voice is just so relaxing
White ranger is a must for any fan especially for just $20
Love the disclaimer.. I might do that when I review mine too LOL!
Haha, wanted to head off the "Um, actually" crowd right off the bat.
@@TheFwoosh Haha! Yeah, you better be 1 step ahead of them sometimes..
the only one i got was the white ranger. as for what you don't know about those other ones. the little thing you thought was a walk-man for the shadow ranger from spd is actually his morpher/badge cause in that power rangers season it is way in the future and power rangers are known as Space Patrol Delta or S.P.D. for short. great season
I noticed that the sword for the shadow ranger has a dog not a dragon by the handle
Probably.
Very nice figures. Lord Zedd and White Ranger are too cool.
