I wonder how much this will cost, I saw on another article that they are only making 2000 of them.
I lied apparently the Red Ranger helmet has 2000
Being mistaken isn’t the same as lying, no worries!!
Personally, as much as I like the helmet, I think I’ll stick to buying the other season sets (they have a few collections, like the entire MMPR run and then series 4-7 in another set). Mostly since it’ll fit in my DVD shelf easier.
are they releasing all of them like they did the others not in the helemet
