-Full Throttle Tyranasaurus Ranger (Original Ranger)
-Full Throttle Triceratops Ranger (Original Ranger)

Why do I get the feeling these are going to be based off of the Dino Engines?

[Fire Ranger]

I like that bandai is going to give us more retro stuff again and looks like they are going to continue the super legends, but I gotta wonder why they would skip to titanium ranger.



**Also just to let everyone know over at entertainmentearth.com they have the cases up for preorder

[blackdinothunder]

I too love that they are releasing so many older but items and agree that they really skipped ahead by coming out with the Titanium Ranger. I would have thought that we could've gotten other villians, I for one would have loved to see a Rita Repulsa figure or even a King Mondo figure. They could've also went with other rangers, it's not as though the Titanium Ranger was anything special. If they were continuing with the 6th Ranger as a Superlegends set, I guess that technically the Phantom Ranger wasn't a 6th Ranger. Then again after that there was the Silver Space Ranger which should've been made. They could've even made Alien Rangers that were better than the sucky 4 1/2" versions that we got. I will still get the Titanium Ranger as well as the Full Throttle Original Rangers, the 5 1/2" Megazords and the 7 1/2" Green Ranger.

If they are making the Red (Tyrannosauras), Blue (Triceratops) and Black Ranger (Mammoth or Mastadon) than sometime in the future I would like to see a remade Yellow Ranger (Sabre Tooth Tiger) and a remade Pink Ranger (Pterodactyl) with a skirt, they would all look great with the Superlegends Green and White Rangers.

[blackdinothunder]

Entertainment Earth lists a Chicken Ranger and Tiger Ranger as the 6th and 7th RPM Rangers in the 3rd Series of figures as well as a chase figure (Lunar Wolf Ranger or Quantum Ranger?)

[Crimson Soul]

Those shipments are most likely going to be the Fall shipments. The names are not that accurate either. Last year Entertainment Earth listed the Wolf Ranger as "Shepard Ranger."

[RainbowTempest]

Am I the only one who sees the three dino ranger toys as possible "R.P.M. Spirit Rangers"?

[blackdinothunder]

Am I the only one who sees the three dino ranger toys as possible "R.P.M. Spirit Rangers"?

I saw that too but I am thinking that maybe they are either using old costumes or old powers. I can't wait to see pictures to show what they look like. I myself would love for them to eventually use the DaiRanger costumes that were never used in the US Series just to see the costumes in action and also to see them as figures.

[Zeo Power]

What?! More SL chaser figures?! After I sold mine because I didn't think they would be releasing anymore! Still cool though! I wonder what the new version of the MMPR Megazord will look like.. and the Extreme MMPR Green Ranger!

[PowerOnyx]

Anyone know if (or under what name) the DX Daishogun is going to be released?

[Zen Aku]

lets all hope that bandai releases all deluxe megazords as well as any auxillary zords needed so none of us has to import any ones that we need:rolleyes:

[Red Eagle Ranger2008]

Does anyone know about how long it will be until the Cell Shift Morpher will be released? Because i am hoping it will be very close if not exact to the japanese version

So according to the toys, the primary Megazord for the first three is called High Octane Megazord and individual Zords are called Eagle Racer, Lion Hauler, and Bear Crawler. Also, the sidearm weapon is called the Nitro Blaster.

[Red Eagle Ranger2008]

It looks like even the morpher is apparently out already, but i havent found any RPM merchandise around here. its still jungle fury stuff

[Arkvoodle]

Not bad so far. I'd like to see exactly how different High-Octane is from Engine-Oh.

[blackdinothunder]

I will have to check my local Walmarts tomorrow to see if they got anything in yet. I want all the figures and the Megazord.

[Robert James]

High Octane Megazord is a different mold from that of DX Engine-Oh. Like how DriveMax Megazord was bigger than DaiBouken, High Octane is smaller than Engine-Oh.

do to the size difference I have to wonder if that is a deluxe version or not if it is the smaller cheaper version like the transforming jungle pride

[Red Eagle Ranger2008]

im starting to think that the RPM merchandise wont be out around here in PA until closer to christmas, because all the stores only still have jungle fury merchandise

:mad:you know it figures that Bandai america would pull this crap again! why shuould they bother putting he damn thing out if they're not going to use the same molds

[Red Eagle Ranger2008]

I still cant beleive that its this close to christmas and i still cant find any of the RPM merchandise around here. i have seen pics of the morpher, which i really want,so apparently its out, but none of the stores around here have anything from RPM

[blackdinothunder]

I haven't seen any of the toys in my area either. There haven't been any at Wal Mart or Toys R Us, the only other place to look is Target.

[GoldDragonRanger]

The wal-mart I work doesn't seem to get the new stuff until the first or second week of December. And sometimes they delay putting it out until more of the old stuff sells down on clearance. They take advantage of Black Friday and the first couple weeks of the holiday shopping season to clear out old merchandise to make room for new.

[Red Eagle Ranger2008]

I really want the Cell Shift Morpher, but i hope that its like the Go Onger Go Phone, Or at least extremely close to being exact

[Zeo Power]

I wonder if you can get 411 or 911 on the new Cell Morpher?

[Red Eagle Ranger2008]

Does anyone think that they could put the RPM stuff out on Black Friday? Because i could be wrong, but if i recall correctly, i think they put out the Jungle Fury stuff out around that time last year.

[RainbowTempest]

Well I ordered Domino's on my Mystic Morpher once, so I don't see why not. :p

I remember they had Jungle Fury toys at Walmart in October of last year.

Too bad the local Domino's here shut down... maybe Pizza Hut?

[RainbowTempest]

Sure, that works LOL.

[Zeo Power]

Ahh, the Retro Megazords are "Super Legends"

Retro MMPR Megazord - http://www.grnrngr.com/toys/pictures/31112.jpg

http://www.grnrngr.com/toys/prrpm.htm

Totally gonna have to get that!!

[RainbowTempest]

They altered the design. The horns are bigger? Makes it look like a demon-bot or something.

[blackdinothunder]

I really like the Retro line, I can't wait to see more. They look more comic like than anything but are still cool looking. I would love to see them do the Dragonzord like that and the MegaDragonzord.

[Zeo Power]

Yeah, if I recall that's how the 3" Mecha figures were too from Japan. They weren't released by Bandai though but were still cool. They only released 5 or 6 in a set. I had the set until I got rid of them earlier this year - but with this set it wasn't the Megazord. It was the Megazord/Dragonzord combination and it had a mini stand too. I hope they keep this line now. We need a Dragonzord! Actually, I hope they release every MMPR era Zord but I doubt it!

[Zen Aku]

:rolleyes:Hey evryone i just picked up the High Octane Megazord tody at my local Walmart where they seem to have the jumpstart on the RPM line i just gotta say that the megazord is not too bad looking but bandai could've done better:rolleyes:

[Red Eagle Ranger2008]

I dont understand something!! Why is it that Bandai America changes the toys from their Japanese Counterparts? I dont think that is needed. Its like they are ripping us off. There is no call for them making the toys less show accurate.

[Zeo Power]

Because Bandai America is cheap and doesn't want to shell out the money is cost to make them the same way. Therefore we get cheap made toys.

This is America, LOL.

[Chris3123]

I've recently been to both my local Target and Toys R Us, and there isn't a single RPM product to be found. Still all Jungle Fury. So RPM hasn't taken over completely yet. I just wanted to point out out.

[Zeo Power]

It's not the fact they haven't taken over. Many stores get their shipments in weeks-months and won't put the new line out until the current line (Jungle Fury) sells. That's how it is here with a few stores. I've been told they have the "new series" line in the back but are waiting until more Jungle Fury toys sale. Hopefully with Christmas coming they will sale faster! I really want to pick up the Retrofire Zords!

[consume747]

when do the retro fire zords come out, i see winter 08 spring 09 im confused?

Yea that is exactly how it works at the wal-mart I work at. As gaps appear in the Jungle Fury section they have plugged some RPM. I got the High Octane Megazord. I could have gotten some Battlized or something figures for Red, Blue, and Black but those kind annoy me. I prefer the straight normal figures.
