![]() Hasbro has also shown they are willing to make these troopers as the Tyrannosaurus Sentry is being released this year as a Target Exclusive. These were the first Sentries to appear in the comics and have also gone on to appear in the Battle for the Grid video game. ![]() One other option also comes from the comics with the Mastodon Sentries, the evil Black Ranger based soldiers of Lord Drakkon. RELATED: POWER RANGERS MOVIE: HOW LEAKED SCRIPT DETAILS CAN STILL WORK This one would be odd though, as why would Hasbro randomly start doing the movie suits now in a Wave, plus due to the lack of movie based merch minus the slight reference to it with the Pink Ranger Morpher, it has been a longstanding question whether of not Hasbro is legally able to make merch for the film yet. One potential, though unlikely choice, could be the suit seen in Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: The Movie as this is a different version. This would be a very similar release to the Dragon Shield Black Ranger from 2019 as a one time armor mode, but all it would take is a new mold for the armor to slip over the chest, and possibly a new Adam head to reflect his appearance in 2007 rather than 1996.

But what is left for them to do? THE MOST INTERESTING OPTION These were all great picks for the Lightning Collection, as they allowed for easy mold reuse and each represented some season appearance of the suit. Most recently saw the first release specific to the character of Adam instead of Zack with the Hasbro Pulse Exclusive Metallic Black Ranger as seen at the end of Season 3. In 2020 with Wave 6 was the first time that the regular version of the Ranger released, which completed the core team of five Rangers.

Seeing another one in 2022 is not that big of a surprise. There have been three different versions of the MMPR Black Ranger released for the Lightning Collection, one each year for the line so far. Today let’s speculate on what version of the Ranger it could be. Recent leaks for the upcoming Wave 12 of figures that will be coming sometime in 2022 appear to indicate that a new version of the Mighty Morphin Black Ranger will be joining Dino Thunder Yellow, Wild Force Blue, and Lost Galaxy Green in that lineup. When it comes to Hasbro’s Power Rangers Lightning Collection they are no stranger to releasing multiple versions of the same Ranger either in a straight up rerelease or in some new form or character.
