Power Rangers Super Samurai. They have been on the shelves for a while. I picked up one for fun, and then I saw they were on sale at Walgreen’s, so now I have three. I just wanted to grab something a little different, see how good the figures are, and add a splash of color to my world of small figures.
Survey says: Winner. The figures have good articulation, in all the right spots. They come with accessories that attach to their bodies. The paint is well done, if not a little too shiny, but they are Power Rangers, so a little flash is an okay thing. And the girls? They don’t look like dudes. More slender body lines are a great plus here.
There are a lot of figures out there to choose from, over a few different series. Some are regular paint, some are metallic paint. The figures seem to run about $8, but they have been on sale as of late in many places. Maybe the end of the run for these kids.
In all, good figures. I have to actually go and watch the show when I get a chance. The entire run of the Power Rangers Universe is on Netflix, so maybe I will just have to go back and watch from the beginning. Become a PR expert or something… maybe not.
They are ever so slightly larger in scale than other comparable figures. Not too far out of place since they have on big boots and helmets.
As always, don’t forget to check my Flickr account for lots more pictures.

Never knew those were so close to being in scale with 3 3/4″ figures. PR is one can of toy worms that I dare not open.
