Times they are a-changin'. Gone are the days of diecast sentai bots. Gone are the days of overly muscular action figures. The new Power Rangers are leaner and sleeker, and offer a better bang for your buck.

This is all about the new economy. Take the new megazords, for example. The Deluxe Formula Megazords are re-tooled versions of the Go-Onger robots from Japan, without electronics.

*cue the fanboy rage*

I know, I know, the engine souls were the whole gimmick of the original series. Bandai America has done this before, you should be used to it by now. But this time, it's different. This time the Deluxe Megazords are only $24.99 each. So yeah, they are missing a key gimmick, but they are a hell of a lot cheaper, and in this market that can make all of the difference.

The plastic quality on these new megazords is actually pretty nice, and they feel sturdy compared to the operation overdrive retooling. There will be four megazords that can combine to form the insane RPM Ultra Zord (The one on display is the Japanese version, FYI).

There supposedly will be a larger version of the main megazord available as a store exclusive, but that too will be a retooling.

Anyway, onto the line list.
