NEW Hasbro Might Morphin Power Ranger Lightning Series White Range - 90's style? 🤔

Got my hands on a MMPR Lightning Series White Ranger by Hasbro this morning @ Target - which it displayed by mistake!  ☹️  

Check out machine kept giving me “Cannot Sell This Item” error and store clerk also gave it a try, and finally…took it back into storage.  Fortunately, I was able to snap an image of it to show how “bad” the Hasbro series is, and in retrospect, how great (and a long way it has come) Bandai has perfected humanoid action figures.  Frankly, I was just going to buy it and show it to Keko’a and Ma’e Ma’e, then back to Customer Service I would have returned it (because of how bad it really is)!

TLDR:  Wrong body proportion!  Body is too big compare to limbs and head.  In addition, lack of muscles anywhere!

Result:  A middle or older aged White Ranger with a tummy that’s too big for the belt and the body armor (which looked like Tommy has washed it and dried it without fabric condition, so the armor has shrunk and showed the big tummy).  That’s right.  Instead of 6 packs, a big tummy!

Just check around to see what the Bandai figures look like.  Same 6”, but much taller (so the new Hasbro series isn’t really 6”), more muscular, and definitely more comic like style (instead of real life figure but no padding, similar to most MMPR series polyester, but not the MMPR movie style).

Looks to me like a design of late 80’s early 90’s from Bandai.  It took almost 35 years to perfect humanoid shape, so it’ll probably take a few years before Hasbro to master it.  Well, Hasbro really has no experience in the modern era of action figures anyhow, as its previous releases were mostly “deformed” style.
