You came out with a big, loud opinion, other people challenged you on it, and instead of defending your point, you started calling them names. That's a surefire way to lose an argument.

What I don't think you understand is that this toy, if successful, will lead to profits for Bandai -- which will convince them there's demand for adult-collector-oriented Sentai/Power Rangers toys, which will lead to production of more adult-collector-oriented Sentai/Power Rangers toys. TBH, you should be rooting for this toy's success because it makes it way more likely that movie Figuarts (or whatever it is you want) will be released. A rising tide floats all boats.

This SOC Megazord wasn't made instead of movie figuarts, but its success could lead to movie figuarts.

That's quite a stretch. Demand for the movie suits is about as niche as it gets. Fact is that the absolute most we'll ever see of them is MAYBE a Legacy release. The outcome that the success of an SOC Megazord would most likely lead to is further SOC Megazords/Robos, certainly a Dragonzord/Dragon Caesar.

I said could, not would. Frankly, I can't imagine Bandai ever releasing movie Figuarts -- but a world where the SOC Daijyujin is super successful is more likely to produce said figures than a world where it bombs.

First go back and reread what I said then after I spoke people were calling me names FIRST ok

After that I defend myself and call them names back ok.

Last I hope this thing bombs really bad just way too much money and again I don't see a lot of people buying this.

Also just so you know I defend my reason because when thunder megazord came out a lot of people want it for cheaper than $200. They waited until it went on sale and got it.

This thing won't go on sale because it not sold in stores like toysrus or elsewhere.

Okay, SK? I've reread this whole thread twice just for fun, no one called you names, or did anything that would warrant you snapping at them like you have. If you have a problem with someone, message me or another Moderator. We will be happy to diffuse the situation, its what we are for. For everyone to have a good time while calmly discussing our thoughts.

I will agree with you that it more than likely wont be on a shelf at ToysRUs, more than anything it will be an online exclusive stateside. I think SOC are exclusives in japan? Not sure how they sell them over there. What I have to disagree with you on is the price situation and how you want it to completely bomb in sales. Unless I have missed something, (and if I have, please send me a link to where it says this but) I do think anywhere has reported what the price will be for this. Sure it wont be $100-$150, but I'm sure it will be a great price for what it looks to be. No not everyone will buy it, but this is a line for collectors, even more than usual. I get you are upset about no Movie 95 SHF, but to be fair to Bandai, these are two complete different toy lines and I am sure sections of the company. Even more so, we haven't had a Sentai Sh Figuarts release in almost two years. I doubt Bandai would make new molds for a US movie that I don't even know how popular it was in Japan. I REALLY do not see them even doing a limited exclusive for new molds here in the states. Molds and all that cost way more money, which means the figures would cost way more than normal. Look at Bandai America exclusives in about the last four to five years- all repaints of the newest stuff, mostly a cool con exclusive paint job, or a black and gold repaint of a Legacy item.

So theres my thoughts, if youd like to discuss this further, Im happy to in a message outside of this thread so we don't bog down the topic.
