Honestly I kind of dislike the Goseiger uniform design. The helmet is extremely cool from the side, but I dislike the crest and their high-waisted jumpsuits. They look like Revolutionary War era British redcoats, without the tails that make those jackets tolerable.

I kind of like the Gosei design.
The only real issue is the all white legs on them. I wouldn't be against a Gosei Figuart release.

I love the Goseiger suit design, so I would love to see them get figures. I doubt I'd pick them all up, but Red and (wishful thinking) Brajira would be definite buys.

Of course, this is coming from someone who still needs Gosei Knight.

Actually, the Goseiger suits are the only thing I like about the show.

I've never said something like this couldn't happen, just that it probably won't, because I don't live in fairytale land like some of you seem to They have influence, sure, just not the flat out control some of you seem to believe they have.

If the Zyuranger/MMPR guys sell well, I think there's a good chance they'll do Goseiger and that would be mainly be to sell to the US (since Goseiger was a pretty unpopular show) just as the Zyurangers are mainly to appease the US market, and after that who knows. But the key word to take in there is if. The difference with MMPR/Megaforce and Lord Zedd, is that with the MMPR/Megaforce lines, they can still sell to Japan, where they're going to make a lot more money than they are here. Saban & Blufin aren't stupid, they're going to wait and see if the line is sucessful first. I'm really not sure how I can explain that any more plainly. We're not going to see anything directed purely towards the US yet, because for all we know Tyranno Ranger might be wildly unpopular and then lose Blufin and Saban a lot of money. They aren't going to take a gamble on something like that, especially since the Shinkengers they brought over already didn't exactly set the world on fire.

Expecting otherwise is, frankly, crazy and I'm tired of defending myself from crude jabs by people who apparently don't understand business and lack even the remotest amount of common sense. If you're so enraged by my opinion, make a different thread or PM me laying out your points for why you think it's such a sure thing and I'll consider discussing it with you in a more civil manner. I'm sure the rest of the board is as sick of these circular arguments as I am.

I'm doing it all in jest.
It's based on the statements that people wanted Zedd (Note: Not expected to get one, simply wanting one), but your refusal to let them dream

I'm not enraged by your opinion, I'm just poking fun at the overall mentality from your posts of "If it's not from Japan first, it will never get a figure."

To be honest? I absolutely LOVE the Goseiger designs. I always have. They have a really regal, almost royal, look to them. And adding Knight to the team helps to accentuate those design elements. I've always felt the design team knocked it out of the park on their costumes.

I would easily by the other 5 Goseigers (and gosei Green please?) to go along with my Gosei Knight.

BTW, did they say if the TyrannoRanger and Daizyujin were going to be repackaged int MMPR packaging? Or are they just going to slap a sticker over it the Japanese box? I hope it is the later.
