    I'm still wondering if we'll get Turbo Unpowered Blue as the first civilian figure in the line.

    Just finished building the black version of the lightspeed rescue minipla, was surprised they also included a newly molded bigger sword for combined mode that the normal colors doesn't have. Looks very nice overall.

    they'll probably make him a deluxe figure, shorter unhelmeted version and taller helmeted version in one box...you could swap the heads if you want to but it would look silly...

    I wouldn’t want to buy a small Justin figure but hope they make him so they can repurpose the body for Zika.

    King Sphinx for some reason is $22.99 at GameStop BUT there’s a sale so it’s now $18.99 and for that, this one will be King daddy Sphinx Supreme or whatever and if a true in scale one is made later that can be the tv show King Sphinx.

    The wings on this one plug in like GameStop Goldar but feel a lot sturdier. The figure is dense and hefty, very durable overall. Butterfly hinges don’t have a lot of range, the helmet limits some neck movement. The loincloth armor doesn’t hinder leg movement much. Unlike most other figures in this collection, it has an alternate hand with a vertical hinge. This to me, is a must for any figure in this collection that has a melee weapon.

    Rita/Zedd is also on sale for $40. Not really noticing changes if any on Zedd. If you don’t already have Zedd, I think this set is a must as that’s 1 of the best figures in this collection IMO. Rita turned out well. However, be careful moving and swapping the hands as they’re small and I could already feel the wrist pegs bending as I tried to bend the hands at their hinges. This isn’t helped by having to the bracelets right near the hands. The elbows seemed a bit stiff to bend initially so be careful there too as their hinge peg is small. It’s just as articulated as the other female ranger figures since the cloth is thin(doesn’t hinder movement much when folded actually) and the breastplate is an overlay on top of the shirt. So if you were worried Rita might not move well, don’t worry, it moves just fine.

    Alright got my single packed Lord Zedd out to compare the Zedd from the 2 pack with Rita. The single packed Zedd has a darker visor and darker ink wash that seems focused on the recessed areas of the sculpt. Whereas the 2 pack Zedd has a more subtle/broad application of ink wash across the raised surfaces.

    More time to fiddle with the figures so more observations:

    Noticed that on my copy of Rita, the eyes are printed as if looking to the right. Looks intentional but if so, wonder why. Doesn’t have the red flags for a misprint since there’s no print bleed outside of the sculpt of the eyeball itself.

    Sphinx poses well aside from the shoulder pads somewhat blocking movement and the side loincloth pieces.

    And this is why owning something physically is superior than digital. However, guess I won't ever be watching DC, NS, or BM then.

    From the analyzing we did...

    ZTH Tanga: ZTH is actually a code for Zeo. However It's not Pink because it would be Neptune if it were Pink and it's not Yellow because it would be Venus if it were Yellow. All we can assume is it's a Cog.

    BLM Parsec: We do know that BLM is a code for In Space. However, like I side about Pink and Yellow. Plus Red would be Jupiter, Blue would be Earth and Black would be Mars. So it would either be Silver or a villain like Ecliptor.

    VEL Mercury: What we do know is Mercury is code for Green. However VEL is a new code, so it could be a new Power Rangers series. Which one is to be determined.

    There is also a code ZTH Venus: Which translates as Zeo Yellow.

    How did you figure Zth was Zeo and BLM was In Space?

    I've been watching this youtuber every Saturday and he been studying all of the past Lightning Collection waves and knows what to expect.
    For instance...
