It's been a while, and I don't just mean since my last ULTIMATES! review. It took over 31 years before Bulk & Skull were properly immortalized in action figure form.

My first two (and maybe only two - I haven't decided yet) Mighty Morphin Power Rangers ULTIMATES! Wave 5 reviews are now up on my site.

"What's that Saba? Timmy is stuck in a well?!"

Mighty Morphin Power Rangers ULTIMATES! Wave 4 is short but still sweet and my review of the White Ranger (and a recap of what happened to the rest of the wave) is now up on my site.

MMPR ULTIMATES! Wave 3 is in the books, and I'm still over the moon with how this Lord Zedd figure turned out.

I don't know what the future holds for ULTIMATES! for the villains, but I can certainly name a few that are sorely missing from the photo here (especially a certain bag of bones).

Wave 4 (what's left of it) should be due... a month ago??? So... yeah... anytime now, I guess?

Two-for-one special today as I take a look at what is truly the best of the MMPR ULTIMATES! so far - Lord Zedd and his throne.

Seriously - if you haven't grabbed this one yet, you are missing out.

My review of Super7's ULTIMATES! Finster figure is now up!

https://www.grnrngr.com/toys/reviews/ultimates-wave-three-finster

Between this amazing release and Hasbro's 2022 version, we're living in some kinda Finster Renaissance Era.

HEY TOY COMPANIES! How about you start competing to see who can put out the best versions of the rest of the Moon Palace crew, eh? 😁

This Blue Ranger figure looks great but doing this review felt like getting a "B" on a test.

Only you can prevent monster fires.

It has been a hectic few weeks, but it's time to start working through the backlog that is *flails arms about*, so let's kickoff the reviews of Super7's ULTIMATES! MMPR Wave 3 with the Black Ranger!

Today marks 25 years of GrnRngr.com.

If someone had told me at the time that this website would exist for more years than I had currently lived and would somehow outlive the broadcast of the very TV show it covers, I like to think that I would have said something clever like "what are you, a time traveler? Hey, that's a good idea for a future season!"

Instead, I probably would've laughed, much like I did when one of my teachers at the time suggested that working on websites could some day be a viable career and I should look into it.

More and more, fan sites feel like somewhat of a dated concept. And, the future of the Power Rangers brand itself seems murky.

But, rest assured - GrnRngr.com isn't going anywhere anytime soon.

These were delivered 48 hours ago, and I've only just now been able to take the customary photo. So, if it's not obvious, my usual reviews aren't coming for a couple weeks.

Super excited to get them open once I have the free time, though.

And, that's a wrap on Super7's ULTIMATES! Mighty Morphin Power Rangers Wave 2. Overall, I think I am happier with this wave than I was with Wave 1. Wave 3 might actually be in-hand fairly shortly (but will there be time to do reviews around the holidays? IDK).

My review of Super7's ULTIMATES! King Sphinx figure is now up!

Spoiler: this is the definitive King Sphinx figure and I would be surprised to ever see a better one. The "ULTIMATES!" name is well-earned this time.
