Bandai Wildforce Jumbo Megazord

Bandai reenters the jumbo machinder market in 2001 with a new, 24 inch tall pair of Power Ranger figures as part of the new Wildforce Sentai series. This was after a rather failed attempt at a previous JM as part of the Space series in 1997, the Astro Megazord, which was more of a robot-to-spaceship transformer - also quite the fragile toy and a bit shorter than traditional JMs. With the Wildforce pair (the other released was the Jumbo Isis Megazord) Bandai goes back to its roots in Popy-like JMs - unfortunately the toy has little articulation - it would have been nice to get a shooting fist or maybe the heads from the animal-influenced vehicles that make up the robo? I don't watch the show so I'm not sure if that would make sense (probably not).

It was hard for me to get very excited about these - frankly I thought they were pretty cheesy. However when they started appearing on shelves I gave in - at $26.77 (Walmart) they were about the cheapest jumbos you could find, at least boxed.
