The recent news of a new Playmates Power Rangers line has inspired me to finally post the last few Ranger figures in my queue. No one really knows what the Playmates figures will look like yet, but the five-year Hasbro run seems to have drawn to a close (2019-2024). Dino Thunder was the eleventh iteration of the US Power Rangers franchise and the first to revisit the dinosaur theme since the initial Mighty Morphin series. This series is personally notable to me because the Bandai Dino Thunder figures were the toys on the shelf when I began collecting action figures a an adult in 2004. The toys were pretty simple and having only one lone female character in the roster kept my interest mild. I never made any purchases, although I did recently pick up a great vintage piece I will review soon. I only have one more Lightning Collection figure to review after this one (plus the two Street Fighter crossovers). It's a sad close to a powerful toy line, but excited to see what the future holds. Let's check out Dino Thunder Yellow below!
Dino Thunder Yellow comes with both helmeted and unhelmeted heads, two sets of hands, her Thundermax Blaster, her two Ptera Grips, and a blue blast effect.
Time for some Group and Comparison Pics!
Here is a collection of recent Yellow Rangers: Lost Galaxy, S.P.D., Dino Thunder, and Beast Morphers.
And here she is with her 2019 Bandai Legacy Collection figure.
Cheers!
