Bluefin Tamashii just announced on their facebook that their release of S.H. Figuarts Red Hawk, from the Super Sentai series, Chojin Sentai Jetman, will be coming is a brand new English Packaging and include brand new English Instructions!

This change was made to facilitate the removal of the Akibaranger Inordinate Power, The Jet Winger, given the fact that Bluefin Tamashii is currently not allowed to sell S.H. Figuarts DekaRed, BoukenRed, or any of the Unofficial Sentai Akibaranger items due to liscensing.

Stay tuned to Tokunation for more news on this item and many more!

This was the prompt I needed to go ahead and cancel my Amazon preorder and buy it on Amiami. Also got DekaRed, since I was wistfully looking at that for the past week and didn't want to buy it by itself. With EMS shipping they work out to Bluefin's price anyway(well, assuming DekaRed would've cost the same as Red Hawk if Bluefin released him).

Probably get them before the Bluefin one ships, too.

English packaging you say? I know they probably had to get new packaging due to the lack of the Jet Winger, but I hope they do this more going forward.

Why the yay? Okay you might not want the wingpack, but its not like you're paying significantly less for the figure because it isn't included.

Well I'm officially not buying the US version. I have no interest in getting it with out the Jet Winger. Oh well. Good thing the JP version is only like 2500 yen.

Pretty much this. Even though I won't use the Jet Winger, it'll feel odd having it missing.

I have to wonder how long Bluefin have known that they wouldn't be including the Jet Winger, because you'd think that's something they should have probably mentioned when preorders first went up.

Awe crap. I had my comic store order him (and Black Condor), so I am screwed because there is no way to cancel the orders. Why couldn't they have told us this months ago??!!

And what is preventing them from selling the other rangers? They said earlier this year they were going ot start releasing the Sentai ones.
