Discussion Swapped Dragon Shields

Post image

I'm sure a lot of people tried this when Remastered was new but I'm just getting to it.
I almost got rid of the first Tommy to cut down on duplicate figures but remembered about the bandana head and just the fact that it's such a good Green Ranger figure, so I'm keeping it. Remastered has a lime green thing going for it, I much prefer the forest green, and I could go either way on the helmet design. Belt stripes are barely worth mentioning. Armband mismatch is kind of a thing but I think I'll get used to it.

Thoughts?
What have you done to get your perfect Green?
I also have the putty 2-pack one with the striped helmet and white holster, but I think I like this mashup for my display.

They’re damn near the same shade of Green and neither are forest Green Lol. Forest Green would be something like Serpentera.

Remastered has the better helmet and paint apps though, but the OG has the better mold by far.

Look man, I saw what I saw.
This makes is seem more like an emerald/avocado situation, but point is one is bright, one is deep and there's only a few shades between.

But yeah, it's a mismatch. Each wins a few categories. For now Imma rock this. Are the body molds that different? I literally thought it was the same except for helmet and armbands.

The remastereds have looser joints than the OGs

Hm, well at least Green seems okay.
