Hasbro's Latest Mighty Morphin Power Rangers Figures Are A Blast From The Past
What's old becomes new again, and right now, there is some high nostalgia for the '90s. And what's more '90s than a bunch of teenagers in ninja costumes hopping into a giant robot to fight giant monsters? Obviously, we're talking specifically about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. Today, Hasbro has revealed brand-new Power Rangers figures based on the characters from the first season of the TV series that will be exclusive to Walmart.
As part of the reveals for Walmart Collector Con, GameSpot has an early and closer look at three of the upcoming figures: Red Ranger, Black Ranger, and Yellow Ranger. All three of these collectibles will be available January 2023 and will retail for $15 each. Let's take a look at all three of them.
The leader of the original Power Rangers team, the Red Ranger was the alter ego of Jason--played by Austin St. John. He piloted the Tyrannosaurus Zord and wielded his iconic Power Sword.
This Red Ranger figure comes with two weapon accessories--one of which is the Power Sword--and a T-Rex coin. As you can see, the packaging for the figure has a retro feel to it and is plastic-free, so it's better for the environment.
Who doesn't love Zack, the Black Power Ranger? Played by Walter Jones--who had a fantastic cameo in 2016's Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping--the Black Ranger piloted the Mastodon Zord, which the head of became a bizarre shield for the Megazord.
The Black Ranger figure comes with his trusty Power Axe, a blaster, and a Mastodon coin. Like many of Hasbro's action figures, it has an incredible amount of articulation, so you can put him in all the coolest poses. Once again, there's some cool retro packaging, which you can check out above.
Finally, there's Trini, the Yellow Ranger.
