Red with envy.... I man, with a shield!
For number #600 We have the Mighty Morphin Red Ranger(Remastered), a figure that almost got away. I had it pre-ordered but one thing led to another, and I decided I didn't want to collect Power Rangers and thus I cancelled my pre-order. And, now, its price has sky rocketed, but I managed to snag him at a barely reasonable price.The only thing cooler than the Green Ranger is the Red Ranger sporting the Dragon Shield! And, yeah, he looks badass! The Armor and arm-bads are removable. Hey, they needed you to buy both him and Tommy, so the remastered Tommy came without his shield. That said, this Jason doesn't come with his dagger nor its scabbard, which is dumb since it was the Dagger that granted Jason the shield. Capitalism aside, this is the coolest version of the Mighty Morphin Red Ranger and I love how the Dragon Shield looks on him. He comes with his dagger blaster in all three forms, two alternate pair of hands, his morpher and two neat red energy effects. Shockingly, he is the only remastered Ranger to come without his unmasked head.
Same articulation as the last batch of Lightning collection figures. Double jointed elbows and knees, hinged waist, ball jointed ab crunch, butterfly joints, boots, thighs and bicep swivels. Also, the dreaded drop down hips. He is just a tiny bit shorter than the Bucky Cap buck.
As an action figure? He is really cool and fun to play with, the energy effects are really neat and everything... but, c'mon, he is missing the Dragon Dagger, which makes him inaccurate to the source material, and he is also missing his unmasked head. So, yeah, he is great, but he is missing a few bits.
