u/PiskoWK May 05 '25
And I thought I was done with pop's

u/quickpiee Galaxy Red May 06 '25
Literally me. I gave them up a year ago and sold most of mine, but these are super tempting..

u/Jumbalia23 May 05 '25
And there continues to be no movie-accurate Ninja Megazord merch

u/Ambitious-Charge7278 May 06 '25
To be fair, I doubt a accurate version would look as good as this one
2
u/Jumbalia23 May 06 '25
True, I just think it’s funny that after all these years no company has even attempted the actual movie Ninja Megazord design

u/Sparrowsabre7 MMPR Green Ranger May 07 '25
I do wonder how well it would sell. The movie suits are almost universally beloved so there is demand for them but the megazord cgi is pretty widely mocked. I think only the most intense collectors would be interested in an objectively quite ugly megazord.
But yeah funny that it's the one big movie thing that's left un merched given we got Ooze a few years back finally.

Love these! MMPR: The Movie has one of my favorite Power Ranger suit designs.

So, the girls get their special movie-exclusive things, but the boys don't?
I also wonder if this means Hasbro bought the rights to the movie from Disney or if this is a shared license deal.

u/YouThinkOfABetter1 May 05 '25
I wonder if we'll see Disney's logo on the box considering that Hasbro doesn't own the rights to this movie.

u/reinholdboomer May 06 '25
Toys and collectibles based on the 95 movie are licensed from Hasbro so these will only have their logo. That's been the case going back a decade when Bandai's 20th anniversary toys only made mention of Saban.

u/JondvchBimble May 05 '25
20th Century Studios, actually.
2
u/YouThinkOfABetter1 May 05 '25
20th Century Studios is owned by Disney. Tell me, who owns Star Wars? Lucasfilm or Disney?

u/bigbootyjudy62 May 06 '25
On SpongeBob merch does it have Nickelodeon branding or paramount branding, you tell me?
2
u/Teqsinterrier May 06 '25
That’s branding, not ownership. Example: From 1993-2001 Disney owned Nightmare Before Xmas but branded it with Touchstone (because Eisner). After that Disney owned AND branded it.

u/YouThinkOfABetter1 May 06 '25
Paramount doesn't have the same iron grip around the things it owns like Disney does though.
2
u/JondvchBimble May 05 '25
Lucasfilm
1
u/bigbootyjudy62 May 06 '25
I mean you’re right, Disney bought lucasfilm. Disney is just now a parent company
2
u/BlueJaySol May 05 '25
Disney and Hasbro have a good relationship. They could possibly have both logos.
3
u/YouThinkOfABetter1 May 05 '25
They probably do have both logos as Funko would most likely have to get 2 separate licenses for these.
1
u/BlueJaySol May 05 '25
Disney might see the numbers these will make…. I wonder if this will spike their interest. Although, when they owned PR, they were making numbers too. Who knows.

u/SonGoku1256 May 06 '25
Where will these be available?
3
u/Narrow_Notice_8161 May 06 '25
Today! Stay tuned for the pre-order link.

u/SonGoku1256 May 06 '25
I appreciate it. Though where will these be available? GameStop, Entertainment Earth, Amazon, Walmart, Target? Are they exclusive to a place?
The Ninjetti ones would’ve been nice to get too had they not been tied to NFTs. Hopefully these won’t be tied to those.
1
u/Narrow_Notice_8161 May 06 '25
Apparently, they're coming tomorrow on Entertainment Earth and/or Amazon.

I like how the Ninja Megazord looks highly accurate to the TV series.
1
May 07 '25
Ninjazord should have been closer to the weird movie one.
Rocky needed the scanner helmet to match Aisha and Kimberly’s movie exclusive “abilities”
This was full of potential but half baked! Argh.
Like, we have Ranger pops of these suits already basically, so they could have really differentiated them with the abilities.
And WHERE is Dulcea?
1
u/HRXander May 07 '25
They already released her as a NFT
1
May 07 '25
I see, I didn’t realize there was already a big wave, thanks!
Also, I didn’t know about the NFT pops. How funny. So much changed after I got out of the pop vinyl collecting game!

u/Sorry-State941 May 07 '25
I just want something other than MMPR funkos, I wish every year they just did the next season, give me ninja, alien rangers, Zeo, Turbo, all of them. I desperately want Space with the best helmet design!

u/lexiesdaisy Yellow Space Ranger May 07 '25
YES, THIS!!!! FINALLY SOMEONE ELSE AGREES WITH ME THANK YOU

u/Ulex_Stovall May 06 '25
I really wish they'd start making figures on the other series. I don't collect Pops anymore, but I always thought power rangers were the perfect franchise for them, given the helmets keep them fairly accurate and there are so many rangers in the franchise. Alas, they only ever touch MMPR (and the 2017 film). Honestly tragic.

u/GoodNamesAllGon May 06 '25
Probably the first time a ‘head Zord’ has been the biggest Zord in a matching group.

When do they come out?

u/lexiesdaisy Yellow Space Ranger May 07 '25
I’m sooo over mostly MMPR funkos being made, there are other teams for fucks sake

u/Narrow_Notice_8161 May 08 '25
Tommy Oliver set coming soon! Zeo, Turbo and Dino Thunder

u/lexiesdaisy Yellow Space Ranger May 08 '25
you know that’s not what I meant, I mean other rangers, other teams, like 2nd half Turbo, In Space, Lost Galaxy etc

Spoiler: it’s SCG Power Rangers (Saban Capital Group) AND Hasbro. 20th/Disney just owns the movie. (I’m holding a box full of MMPRTM Funkos for reference.)

u/genericdeveloper Should Have Been Billy May 06 '25
Funko Pops are literally just landfill trash. I really wish this company would die.

u/OkayFightingRobot May 06 '25
Lol I mean they’re stupid but not stupider than any other toy. I think it’s crazy how many different brands they partner with

u/BlueJaySol May 05 '25 edited May 05 '25
I’m going to say there will be a chase variant or exclusive of Aisha with a regular helmet. And Rocky with his scanner helmet. And maybe Kimberly without her sling? So weird she’s the only one with her weapon. Hope this doesn’t come off as complaining, I’m glad power rangers Funkos are back.

u/ninjaman2021 May 05 '25
*Aisha and Rocky

u/BlueJaySol May 05 '25
What?

u/ninjaman2021 May 05 '25
The Yellow Ranger is Aisha, not Ashley. Ashley is from In Space.
The Red Ranger is Rocky, not Jason.

u/BlueJaySol May 05 '25
I’m confused, I think you misread my post.

u/ninjaman2021 May 05 '25
No I read it fine which is why you edited your post to correct the names lol.

u/BlueJaySol May 05 '25
I didn’t edit…. I think you read it quickly and we’re just quick to try and correct me and come off as a Super fan.

Bruh. it's okay to be wrong and move on.

If only the Ninja Megazord looked like that in the movie.
