I wondered what the Sentai figures would look like with the current engineering for Figuarts.

Seeing the Hibiki logo in a horizontal format just feels wrong.

Oh that Sentai plate is rather insulting considering the last figure came out what, 5 years ago?
Also, reissue Hibiki already you cowards. By buying them probably |

Honestly, I don't want to see Tamashii Nations restart the Sentai brand, purely for the reason that they cowardly abandoned it 5 years ago.
They could have tried to better those figures, try the same thing they did with Kamen Rider but they didn't. People would have bought a Sentai figure with the "new" Figuarts engineering... It's their loss. |

The stuff didn't sell; it's just a logical business decision. They might try again someday but I think they will arrive at the same conclusion: The general collector audience doesn't want to pay 300+ bucks for a complete team of one figure in five different colors. |

Something I have been wondering recently is that... while a full team is hardly viable unless they turn out super popular, I really think SHF could get away with just making the Red and the Sixth of the cocurrent Sentai season. Sure there'd be people who wouldn't wanna bother unless a full team is a thing, but there's a lot of people that'd be happy with just those and I think they'd easily sell well enough.

At this point you can only try making insanely popular characters from well received shows and - does Sentai even have those anymore? The only thing they would get away with IMO is a redone Zyuranger cast 'cause MMPR. |

Granted you could justify it since you have riders with vastly different remolds and weapon options compared to recolors and a different helmet. It still sucks that the Sentai stuff never sold as well, I still like a ton of them including the older releases like Gokai Red.
