Power Rangers Minimates

[lopez888]

Super freaking excited

[Donny B]

This is amazing!  I can’t wait to see the full lineup, but these look so freaking incredible!!!

Now that these are official, I am moving this topic out of possible future licenses, and into TV, Movie, & Video Game Minimates ?

[Captain Paco]

While I did not care for the television show, I do like the Minimates and would get a set or two to have all the rangers and the alternate versions thereof.

I would like to see these in four packs like Big Bang Theory were.  But I would like to get Rita, Zed and some putties.

[MisterPL]

I think these will be good for the Minimates brand. I'm a far cry from a MMPR fan but I'll be picking these up, if only because I really like this fan film.

Oh...

How are we getting Zords? ?

[WookieFodder]

are there toys that these minimates will fit inside of? Imaginext? 

[MisterPL]

Imaginext® would probably be the most compatible. The prices are currently all over the place but generally pretty reasonable.

[Strider]

While this is not a line for me (I never got into them as a kid) it totally makes sense and looks great in the concept art. I won’t be getting them but I hope it is successful and helps convince other properties to try minimates. I am still holding out hope for LOTR to come back some day. 

[HellfireSamurai]

Damn it. So it seems I shall be out more cash now thanks to minimates.

[Tommy Wiseau]

Definitely looking forward to this! Even though I haven’t been into Power Rangers since I was a kid, these are a must have and I hope DST can at least put out the complete set of original Rangers.

What kind of accessories we looking at? I’m guessing they’ll each get a blaster since they have a holster. Any chance they’ll each get their individual weapons too?

[Onyx_6]

Sold! So much more excited for these than the other 2 Hasbro lines. What a great looking selection to kick off the line too. Kimberly was always my favorite.... ??

They should have some individual weapons, yes. Not 100% sure, but the designs look promising.

Really excited for these power ranger minimates! I think lego type zords would be cool! Goin the way of the C3's from dc those were fun builds. Anyways... But if they come with their individual weapons would those combine together to make their cannon gun thing? Or could it just be a single sculpted cannon?

[DSTZach]

Some big PR fans on the team (not me personally, but I appreciate the whole sentai phenomenon), so I assume whatever CAN be done HAS been done. 

[MisterMiracle]

I am beyond excited!  MMPR and Mortal Kombat were always high up on my wanted Minimates list.  I haven't bought any Minimates in about 3 years now but these would definitely get me back on board.

Oh man, that’s so exciting.

I hope you guys end up doing some of the monsters (Goldar is probably a given!). Some of them have really cool designs that it’d be neat to see them translated to Minimate form.

Also really hope Bulk and Skull sneak in at some point! ?

[Onyx_6]

The cool thing with MMPR and Minimates is that a Minimate Mega Zord could just as easily go up against, say Goldar, as a MInimate Power Ranger. I'm hoping we see so many characters from this, but I would love to see sets like this going off the initial line-up.

• Set 2: Rita Repulsa, Lord Zedd, Goldar, Pudgy Pig
• Set 3: Black Ranger, Yellow Ranger (Trini and Aisha heads), Red Ranger, and White Ranger
• Set 4: Puddy Patrol x4 (crazy 88 style)
• Set 5: Mega Zord, Dragon Zord, Titanus, Mega Dragonzord

MMPR was after my time, but I love the designs and the whole men-in-rubber-monster-costume phenomenon. I was always a fan of the old Godzilla movies, Ultraman & other various kaiju stuff from the 70s & 80s.

Wow, that's a really awesome point. Now I REALLY hope they come out with more of the monsters.

And for alternate heads, they could do that for Jason/Rocky for Red Ranger, and Zach/Adam for Black Ranger. If people wanted to, I bet finding heads for quick customs of the Japanese Sentai characters would be pretty easy, too.

So many possibilities with this line.. ?

[Onyx_6]

Any idea when we can pre-order these? I am very much looking forward to them.

[DSTZach]

Next Friday.

@luke314pi Are these gonna be in your shop for pre-order on next Friday or later?

I suppose I should also check with my LCBS before he guilt trip/shames me again like he did with the Joes. Lol

Ours will go up for preorder that same day.

I'm also curious if these can go past Mighty Morphin and into later series, since I'm one the few who never stopped watching Power Rangers. Mighty Morphin does have lot of stuff to get figures, it being longer then other seasons, so either way I'm excited to see where we go.
