It's Wednesday and you know what that means... ToyFarce Reviews! This week, we're having a look at the Power Rangers x Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle Lightning Collection two-packs by Hasbro (minus the Morphed Shredder which has yet to fall in my pile of loot!). For those unaware, those come from a great comic book crossover by IDW Publishing and Boom Studios, where the Power Rangers and the Ninja Turtles cross paths, and eventually the Ninja Turtles end up suiting up using the Power Rangers morphers and coins. It's a fun read! But how about those figures? It's Morphin' Time! The first two-pack released was the Red ranger Raphael with Tommy as a foot soldier. In the comic book, Tommy (yes, that Tommy, the Green Ranger!) has joined forces with Shredder and the Foot clan. Raphael is a great figure, with tons of articulations (double elbows, double knees, etc), and comes with an unmasked head, 4 extra hands, his trusted weapons, the sais and some effects for them. Tommy comes with a regular foot soldier head, a facemask to cover his face, along with a facemask that is pulled down, extra hands, a katana, lightning effects for the katana and a punch effect. The second one had Leonardo and Donatello, as the Blue and Black ranger, respectively (yeah, there was no purple ranger in Mighty Morphin', so black will have to do...). They both come with an unmasked head, 4 extra hands, their weapons (katanas for Leo and a bo staffs/axes for Donnie), along with some effects for them. Just like Raph, they are very cool figures, can be displayed in tons of action poses,... I mean, come on. They're Power Rangers Ninja Turtles! Even if they had 5 points of articulation, they'd probably still be cool! The third two-pack had the Yellow ranger Michaelangelo (once again, no orange, so close enough), and the Pink ranger April O'Neil. The turtle comes with the usual unmasked head, extra hands, weapons and effects, and April also has a camera, a microphone (so she can still fulfill her journalist duties), a bow and arrow + effect, and a blaster. Out of all 4 turtles, Michaelangelo has the most derpy unmasked head, followed very closely by Donatello. The Green Ranger Shredder has started to appear in stores, so it shouldn't be long before he joins the other ones. There's a lot of fun crossovers in comic books these days, and I hope we can get more of those fun 'special events' toys. I'd love a Transformers/Star Trek transforming Enterprise, for example... What other comic book crossover would you like to see figures of? Let us know in the comments! More news at 11:00... Cowabunga! It's Morphin' Time!

No Pink Spandex along with the help from Martian_Ranger and RangerSelect have discovered listings for what looks to be the second wave of Lightning Collection Deluxe Monster figures which includes Eye Guy and Pirantishead. We will of course treat this as a rumor until Hasbro official confirms it.

According to the folks at LightningFigPR, etailer Toy Wiz jumped the gun a bit and at least briefly listed for pre-order the figures in Hasbro's 8th wave of Power Rangers 6" Lightning Collection line. The figures listed match up with listings I've previously seen for the wave and I believe will be officially going up for pre-order with images towards the end of next week at all etailers that sell Lightning Collection figures. The listings Toy Wiz put up are as follows: - Dino Thunder Blue Ranger figure - S.P.D. Pink Ranger figure - Lost Galaxy Red Ranger figure - Zeo Green Ranger figure

Seems like Hasbro's Power Rangers marketing team has fallen asleep at the wheel recently. Last week we told you how an unannounced 6" Lightning Collection Dino Thunder White Ranger figure was discovered on shelves at a store in Malaysia. Well another unannounced figure has now been discovered at retail. This time with a Lightning Collection Dino Charge Black Ranger figure, which has been discovered here in the US. mcucollector24 found these at his local Target store today in Modesto CA. It's unclear if this is a Target exclusive, though it is looking that way. Would be nice if we got some official details on these from Hasbro, but I guess that's what happens when the Marvel team hogs up all their live stream events. If I know MCUcollector, he will likely have a review up soon for the figure so stay-tuned.

Images or what appears to be a new boxset for Hasbro's 6" Power Rangers Lightning Collection line has hit the net today. The set appears to include all the members of the In Space Psycho Rangers which of course some of which have already been released on single cards. It's unknown if there will be any differences between those and the figures in this set nor do we know at this time how or where this set will be release. As more details become available we will be sure to update you.
