S.H. FiguArts Power Rangers

[shiftyraccoon]

That's not the sabretooth / mmpr yellow though? I dont know the mask

 

[Big Deano]

He was meaning the way its designed; the American figuarts is a female mould minus the skirt, the Japanese is the male mould because yellow was a guy in reality.

So I got my Dragon Dagger... Kinda bummed that UPS didn't handle this with more care but it is what it is....

 

[blood]

yeah thats why i prefer going to a store

That's not the sabretooth / mmpr yellow though? I dont know the mask

it's not. but it was just a reference to tell you where the difference were.

Male ranger

Female

the chest is a bit more curvy

 

[Psycho]

yeah thats why i prefer going to a store

Yeah my nearest TRU is 2 hours away...

 

[shiftyraccoon]

Ah ok. So there's a yellow ranger male / female version of the figures then?

 

[Big Deano]

Just of yellow, since in Japan yellow was male (you can actually see it in the footage of mmpr season 1) but as we know, in PR was female.

 

[shiftyraccoon]

Oh no I know yellow was a bloke in mmpr. I meant in the figure line there's a yellow male and yellow female version? Amazon says the female body is US exclusive but I can't really see a difference lol

 

[Big Deano]

Its the same mould as pink minus the skirt for the American version, while the japanese is the normal guy mould for the figures. Female yellow is indeed an exclusive to the MMPR line.

 

[shiftyraccoon]

Ah ok cool. Well I'll have to get the guy one then as I'm UK as was used to seeing him skirtless lol

 

[Big Deano]

Huh? Wha? Im from Uk too, but I have no idea what you're talking about

Yellow was female here too, unless you watched zyuranger. It was Trini here

 

[shiftyraccoon]

Yellow was Trini yeah but when she morphed she had no skirt or boobs. I always did wonder when I was younger then I was told why

 

[Big Deano]

You know I did say the female yellow doesnt have a skirt either, right?

 

[shiftyraccoon]

Yes! Lol

So here are the supposed highlights from the Anime Expo Bluefin panel:

Nappa is back on the table if Broly is a success.
Dragon Ball effect parts still kinda iffy as effect parts are expensive to make.
Next DBZ Figuart is SSJ Vegetto.
DBZ line will continue out of order, but will generally have a Buu saga focus.
New Tamashii Buddies line DBZ and Sailor Moon confirmed.
Throned Lord Zedd Figuarts Zero teased with blurry image.
May do shield-less Green Ranger as future SDCC exclusive.
Bluefin wants to do Zeo or In Space and they want fans to just pick one and keep spamming it on Facebook so Bandai can stop saying the results are always mixed. Time Force also suggested.
Metal Build Titanfall under consideration along with Pacific Rim.
MonsterArts Gamera is hinted. Showa Godzilla still on back burner. Bluefin has been pushing Titanosaurus on their own.
Staged a fan reaction Tuxedo Mask hype video to show interest to Bandai Japan.
S.H.Figuarts Sasuke Uchiha confirmed.
Did not sound like they are going to continue with Aliens or Predator figures.
SH Figuarts Vader and Stormtroopers likely wont be released in the states due to licensing issues. The movie realization figures are real. The samurai themed Vader and Stormtroopers will be coming to the US.
S.H.Figuarts Luigi confirmed
