Finally! Another Green Ranger in my collection!
Well, it seems my priority is to finish the Dino Charge team now, and up net is the
Dino Charge Green Ranger which finally adds another green into my Rangers.
Pretty much same sculpt as the Blue Dino Charge guy, but with a different helmet and paint job. I do think the green and yellow look fantastic on him, so I'll take it. He comes with two grabby hands, a really neat pointing hand, a fist, an unmasked head, a sword, a blaster and a effect piece for the sword. The grabby hands are kinda lame, I mean, the trigger finger works well for the gun, but the other grabby hand has two fingers with a slightly more extended grip than the other two, so getting a good grip on the sword was a bit
challenging.
Articulation is
on brand for the brand. Double jointed elbows and knees, butterfly joints, swivels on his biceps, thighs and boots, with a hinged waist and a ball jointed ab crunch. He also features the
dreadful drop down hips. That said... his right shoulder was very stiff, which was stressing the peg, so I
shaved off some of the plastic so that it could better rotate into the torso. His left ankle was very stiff too, so I had to loosen it up with some hot water, and it's still not perfect, and I can see that the peg is a bit stressed. He is ever so slightly shorter than Bucky Cap.
While I'd happily tell you that the color scheme makes me like him more than the Blue Ranger... the QC issues with the joints left a sour taste on my mouth. Hopefully he won't break with the fixed I applied.
