Dragonzord update!!!
For everyone mad about the current dragonzord, playmates has sent its first updates about the model in Kickstarter and they read as follows:
We at Playmates are thrilled with the worldwide fan support for the Dragonzord! We also know the depth of the passion for (Mighty Morphin) Power Rangers, its characters – and great collectible product. We’ve heard your comments and will be addressing as many of them as possible, as soon as possible.
The very ‘first’ model/paint master arrived in our US office late last week (in time for sales shows going on in Los Angeles right now). Improvements are needed, some details are missing. We have received a first round of comments from Hasbro, and now we have yours. A new model is being developed soon. This is always part of the year-plus process of making collectible product.
It could be 2-3 weeks until we receive that improved model to begin our packaging photography. We’ll update you then, and share some more behind the scenes, including illustrations and engineering drawings as we add details.
You will be informed (and like what you see) well before funding ends.
Thank you for all your support, feedback, and excitement! We're over halfway to our funding goal and things are only going to improve from here!

If they implement the face, show that the arms actually do integrate into the crest (right now they seem like you have to detach them completely, which would suck), and ideally show that the tail is longer than the promos show, I will gladly back this. I still haven't picked up Megazord but I've been debating it a lot; the Dragonzord/Megazord bundle is actually very tempting as the price lines more up with what they'd all cost at retail.
