Yeah that kind of blew my mind too. They anounced his release like a month after I'd gotten an Amiami pre-order in already. The upside is since they will be distributing him I can nab a couple of extras through work for custom ideas and alternate displays.

Beetleborgs has a cult flowing, but it's not as mainstream compare to MMPR.
More or less. It's not quite clear if the B-Fighter issues were on Toei's end or on Saban's but somehow it was implied their web exclusivity precluded them from release here. That hasn't always been true of Tamashii products as we well know with Godzilla & DBZ, but for Riders Sentai & Metal Heroes the rules seem to be different. I don't know why they'd seek to release a figure like Fire with almost zero visibility to the main US market, but oh well. I'll take it.
