As per tradition, Hasbro’s latest PR-centric Fan First Friday livestream has officially revealed some great PR news and merch for us to cover!
Lightning Collection Red Ecliptor
Trapping the Rangers in an impenetrable web, Ecliptor joins the Lightning Collection again, but red this time! This figure isn’t available to pre-order right now, but will be available in Spring 2022!
Zord Ascension Project (MZ-0101)
You’ve most likely bought the Dino Megazord already, but how about one with actual cockpits inside the Zords, full articulation, and at a 1/144 scale?
Official Product Description:

Featuring 5 individual Zord figures that can combine to form the Dino Megazord — in both Tank and Battle Modes — this figure is a truly morphinominal addition to any fan’s shelf.”
Price: $166

Boom! Studios
No big announcement from the Boom! Studios section of our Fan First Friday. It was more general Q&A for the ideas and inspiration for the current comic arc, “The Eltarian War” as well as concept art and some preview pages for what’s to come.
It also featured a bit more insight as to what to expect for the upcoming Power Rangers Universe series starting this month, including giving us the character art for our heroes for this series.
