The LIGHTNING COLLECTION features over two decades of iconic characters from this storied franchise, and Hasbro is excited to bring its own take to this premium line. The LIGHTNING COLLECTION’s highly-articulated, 6-inch figures will have best-in-class detailing and design, and will feature Photo Real technology for realistic actor likenesses. In the MIGHTY MORPHIN POWER RANGERS series, the Green Ranger loans the power of the Dragon Shield to the Black Ranger to help defeat one of Rita’s monsters. The MIGHTY MORPHIN DRAGON SHIELD BLACK RANGER Figure has over 20 points of articulation and includes two different heads that can be swapped—one of the Ranger in his helmet, and another without as Zack Taylor from the original MIGHTY MORPHIN POWER RANGERS series.

“They have won this time but none of us shall rest,
until the rangers are completely destroyed and the Earth is reduced to mere cinders!”

Rita Repulsa has had enough chances. After ruling over darker parts of the universe, Lord Zedd has returned! The emperor of evil tasked Rita with conquering Earth, defeating Zordon, and destroying the Power Rangers. With her inability to do so, he has returned to do that job himself! With an army of super strong Putties, more powerful monsters, and an insatiable rage against heroes, could Lord Zedd finally defeat the Power Rangers?

Joining Habro’s Lightning Collection line as it’s debut villain, Lord Zedd is such a welcome addition to the line. A wonderfully sculpted and detailed figure, Zedd captures the essence of his on screen presence perfectly. Absolutely the best articulated figure of the character ever, Zedd can menace any of your ranger figures. Armed with his iconic Z-Staff, a Monster Growth Bomb, energy effect, and an extra pair of hands, this is a must own for any Power Rangers fans.

Check out 50+ images of Lightning Collection Lord Zedd after the jump. Just click “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post to be taken to the full review thread. We’ll be back soon with more galleries from Kamen Rider Ex-Aid, Power Rangers Beast Morphers, and more!

“S.P.D. Emergency!”

His home planet Sirius decimated by Emperor Gruumm, Anubis Doggie Cruger came to Earth as commander of the law enforcement organization Space Patrol Delta. Cruger would protect the galaxy many times and mentor teams of Power Rangers for a number of years. The greatest team being Earth’s eventual saviors, the S.P.D. B-Squad. As heroic as they were, in desperate times Cruger used his Patrol Morpher to become the sworn defender of the galaxy, S.P.D. Shadow Ranger!

Another wonderful addition to wave 1 of Hasbro’s Lighting Collection line of figures, the S.P.D. Shadow Ranger is absolutely one of the most demanded figures in the line by fans. It’s been 14 years since SPD aired and this character’s popularity has maintained, not to mention the demand from fans of Tokusou Sentai Dekaranger for a figure of Deka Master. The LC Shadow Ranegr figure at it’s $20 price point offers a wealth of articulation as well iconic accessories like the Shadow Saber, Patrol Morpher, and even an un-morphed Doggie Cruger head! For fans of both Power Rangers and Super Sentai, this figure is a must own.

Look no further than our gallery & review to see comparisons with S.H. Figuarts & Hasbro’s Marvel Legends, the incredible articulation engineered into this figure, and the wealth of accessories the White Ranger includes.
