I was a little hesitant at $45, but the figure was cool. $57? I don't know...maybe a little too much for extra packaging.
When news first broke the other day about Hasbro's new 2021 Hasbro Pulse-Con Power Rangers Lightning Collection Pudgy Pig it was being reported that figure would cost $45. Well looks like it may be a bit more expensive than that. The figure is now listed on the HasbroPulse website and is showing a $57.99 price tag. It's possible that could change before actually being made available for pre-order this fall, but it looks like this is the final price and the lower one was put out in error.Here is the official description for the figure:These 6-inch Lightning Collection Pudgy Pig figure features premium paint and decorative details inspired by the show, over 20 points of articulation for high poseability, food fight accessories, oversized fork and knife weapon accessories and blast effect piece for more ways to play or display.

Same story as most, a monster of the week, created by Rita & Finister , he was supposed to consume all of the food on earth, and get his fat butt beat in 20 minutes by the rangers, but isn't he cute
I gotta say it's pretty fun, Pudgy Pig is a real silly character here, it's well done for what it is, I'm not sure I'd be rushing to try and get this con exclusive, but if they did eventually put it out as a regular release, which let's be honest they probably will, I'll buy it then, the Lunchbox is rad though.
Well, for the.....
Power Ranger "serious collectors"..
You got yourself a treat....
For the rest......That's how it goes =^)
Note; The Lunch box is so cool...
Lol. This pig man looks awesome. What is his story?
That is one disturbing figure
I hope they do a regular release later, $45 is too much.

So naturally, you release him in a way that guarantees the fewest possible collectors can actually get him.
The Lunchbox packaging makes me hope there's going to be a normal release later.
