Same store that I got Drakkon at and subsequently got wiped out, restocked today or this weekend with no Drakkon. Blue guy is already shelfwarming. Going to get Jason eventually so I can have a Tyrannoranger VS Dragon ranger fight going on.
My current ranger shelves. I'm hoping once I move I'll have more room to put up a good looking display.
Looks like Amazon is starting to charge my wave 3 preorders. Yeah, I know the whole wave has been in stock over at HP, but Amazon was already discounting the figures before they got their stock in so I got those prices locked in. I knew DC Gold got discounted to $14 last week, but I didn't know MMPR Red did as well. Surprised Beast Morpher Blue didn't go down to $14 too, but did get like 49 cents knocked off.
Lord Drakkon came in today... As did the Red Ranger... Man I'm so tempted to crack open the Hasbro Rangers, they look so much better then the Bandai Ranger's despite how much I love the White Ranger. But if I do I don't know what I'll do with my Bandai Rangers, hmmm decisions decisions.
found another wave 4 case (minus Drakkon natch) at Target today...picked up an extre red MMPR for possible future customizing...

The paint on the Lightning Collection has been extremely shoddy all around. It’s obe of the reasons why, despite trying to go completionist on the line, I’m not gonna get rid of my MMPR Figuarts. Sculpt and proportions are qualities we can debate between the lines, but the paintwork is objectively superior on the SHFs.
I bought 4 MMPR Reds and 2 Drakkons 2 out of the 4 reds had major paint issues luckily I planned on using 2 to customize with the white stripe anyways. 1 of the drakkons had minor paint errors and the others' neck peg broke out of package. I want the Figuarts team but the prices on them hurt. I just need Blue, Black, Pink, and Yellow. Unfortunately those are the most expensive lol.
All right I decided to open my three boxed Lightning Collection figures and I can definitely say that they're a lot better then the Legacy Collection. They make them feel cheap and really put into perspective how horribly inaccurate they are, but despite how much I like the White Ranger I think I like the Legacy Collection White Ranger more.
I came across a Drakkon today. I wasn't planning to buy him, but I ended up doing so on impulse. I'll open him up, see if the figure is worth keeping in my collection or not depending on the paint job (it's hard to tell in the package), and if not, back he goes.
