Mighty Morphin Power Rangers Legacy Green Dragonzord Action Figure - Collectible Power Rangers Toy for Kids & Adults - Perfect for Display, Play & Nostalgic Gift Giving

I've been waiting for this Legacy Dragonzord to be released for a few years, believe it or not. This matches with the Legacy Megazord released in 2010 and also the die-cast version from 2013. I will get into that a little bit more in depth later.This version of the Dragonzord is extremely show accurate. For those super sentai fans that watched Zyuranger, there is finally a US version of this that is show accurate. The original toy had a lot of stickers and thunderbolts instead of the proper logos. This toy is much better looking in that regard - there isn't a single sticker to apply and the stickers match up with the Dragonzord from the stock footage. Unlike the original release, this version features no lights and sounds. I admit, I'm a sucker for lights and sounds, but the sacrifice was well worth it since we are getting a far superior mold.A huge improvement in this toy is the articulation in the tail. There are joints throughout the tail and the tail can be put in some great poses. It's very impressive. The mouth moves a bit. There are also two sets of hands - one in a slightly open grip and the other set in the straight fingered pose that is seen firing missiles. These toys don't really have all too much as far as articulation goes, but it's a huge improvement from the original version.The Dragonzord can combine with the Megazord to form either the Dragonzord in Battle Mode/Gouryuujin or the Mega Dragonzord/Zyutei Daizyujin. This is actually one of my main complaints with this toy, which I can't really complain too much about. It has got some weight to it, being die cast. If combining with a Megazord from 2010, the plastic release, the weight makes the toy really top heavy in either mode and prone to tipping over. The weight problem wasn't as much of an issue when using the die cast Megazord from 2013. I can't really say this is too much of a complaint (how can you really complain about a toy having a solid quality construction?). As with all the other toys released in the past few years, this toy also features the zord builder system, which means parts can be mixed and matched from other sets, but since this toy weighs so much more than all plastic toys, be mindful that other combinations might end up very top heavy as well.I'm very happy and impressed with this toy - I never got a chance to own a working original. I managed to get my hands on a broken one a few years ago and it kind of ruined my childhood memories of how cool it was. If I had this as a kid though, I would have loved it and the memory wouldn't have been tarnished the same way. This is a great piece for any collector and because of the quality construction, shouldn't have any issue actually being played with. If you haven't bought one of these yet, don't wait, get one while you still can!
