Power Rangers enthusiasts and collectors have reason to celebrate as Power Rangers and Funko have joined forces once again to unveil an array of new products. After a 5-year hiatus, a wave of new items has been unleashed, perfectly timed to coincide with the franchise’s 30th Anniversary on August 28th.
TL;DR:
- Power Rangers and Funko unite for a 30th Anniversary celebration.
- NFT Digital Pop!s reveal new figures, including Ranger Slayer.
- Series 2 NFT packs launch on August 22, focusing on ’95 movie, featuring elusive characters and suit designs
Power Rangers Digital Funko Pop! – Mighty Morphin’ Time!
The festivities commenced with fresh editions of the original Rangers, accompanied by the much-anticipated release of the Ranger Slayer from the Boom! Studios comic series. Notably, Funko had previously introduced Ranger Slayer exclusively as a prize within the initial series of NFT Digital Pop!s, garnering attention from both fans and collectors.
Funko’s distinctive Digital Card packs, presented periodically, offer a showcase of novel Pop! designs for characters not previously released. Each pack holds the potential for a surprise: lucky recipients can score a physical version of the Pop! featured in the NFT. Among the first wave of these packs were exclusive Pop! releases, also spotlighting characters like Zordon and Scorpina. These unique figures have recently been dispatched to the fortunate winners.
The anticipation escalates with the impending launch of Series 2 NFT packs on August 22, 2023, at 11am PT. This upcoming wave captivate fans with its focus squarely on the 1995 film “Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: The Movie.” While distinct from the TV show’s primary canon, this original film boasts unique characters and suit designs that have remained unseen since. The film’s merchandise was notably sparse, even during the 90s, predominantly comprised of repackaged or repainted MMPR items. However, the tide has turned as Hasbro steps up to release a remarkable array of figures for the movie.

While the complete lineup of NFT characters remains under wraps, sneak peeks of some physical Pops! that can be won from the packs have ignited excitement. Among these tantalizing teases are Ninjetti Tommy, Billy, Kimberly, Aisha, and Freddy Funko as Ivan Ooze. Notably, the rarest gem of the collection, Dulcea, marks the first-ever release of merch featuring the character.
Fans and collectors looking to secure these highly coveted items should mark August 22nd on their calendars. The NFT packs will be available for $9.99 for 5 NFTs and $29.99 for 15, each capped at 22,500 units. As Funko’s NFT releases often witness a swift sell-out, enthusiasts should gear up for an 11am PT launch to maximize their chances of snagging these exciting movie-inspired items.
