Last week, Playmates Toys and Hasbro sparked excitement among fans with the first sneak peek from their upcoming Power Rangers toy line Re-Ignition. Now, Playmates has shared a fresh teaser revealing potential characters included in the initial release. On social media, they unveiled a new video showcasing six figure silhouettes – these are recognizable, so it’s safe to assume that the first wave of figures will encompass the entire Mighty Morphin Power Rangers squad.
Moving from left to right, you’ll find Mighty Morphin’s Pink Ranger, followed by Black Ranger, Red Ranger, Green Ranger, Blue Ranger, and finally Yellow Ranger. The weapons, being the most distinctive features, are easy to spot – you can clearly see the Power Bow, Power Axe, Power Sword, Power Lance, and Power Daggers. Although the Dragon Dagger is somewhat hard to discern, when combined with the easily recognizable helmets of the other five characters, it makes perfect sense.
Even though the figures appear to have blacked-out details, their poses suggest a comparable style reminiscent of the company’s Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles series. They seem to share similar articulation, and it’s intriguing to notice that they come with holsters equipped with blade blasters by their side.
It’s quite intriguing to witness all six Mighty Morphin Rangers unveiled simultaneously, and it becomes even more captivating if they are all introduced in the very first wave. Hasbro usually introduces one or two Mighty Morphin Power Rangers characters per wave, mixing them with Rangers or villains from other teams. If Playmates decides to release the big six right away, it might suggest that we’ll see different versions and variants of these core Rangers in future waves, while introducing lesser-known characters instead of keeping the main Mighty Morphin team hidden.
The Lightning Collection encompassed a total of fifteen series, each containing six-inch action figures, along with two-packs, larger monsters, and exclusive editions. These final figures were launched in the year 2023. With Playmates’ new Power Rangers toy line set to debut this year, it means approximately two years have passed since Power Rangers toys could regularly be found on store shelves.
In the initial announcement, Karl Aaronian, Senior Vice President of Marketing at Playmates, expressed his excitement about collaborating with Hasbro on revamping the toy line of this renowned franchise that’s dear to many. Both Playmates and Hasbro use a common ‘toy language’, and they both have a deep-rooted affection for POWER RANGERS, an enduring pop culture sensation that continues to thrive even after all these years.
