I guess pre-orders for Metal Heros must be doing better then pre-orders for Super Sentai. Whatever sells well then Tamashii Nations will keep on making them. I hope to see info on Gavan renewal soon. The last Gavan figure came out two or three years ago, so it could be time for a upgrade since the original figure had bad QC issues.

Soooo Chase should be going up tonight?

I heard the 13th, but I'll be checking every night like normal.

Yeah I saw the 13th mentioned on Twitter by TN. I check AmiAmi every night anyways for pre-owned stuff so if there's a surprise listing going up earlier I'll see it.

What did I miss? A $20 Kim? Damn where was I?

Yeah, I've pretty much given up hope for Sentai, at least for now.
Yup. So much this.

Exactly why I use Amazon.
I'm more comfortable with Amazon, thanks. When my money gets better, I'll try my hand at the asian markets. Plus I see what you guys go through when orders go wrong.

I wonder what SDCC SHF Toku exclusives that they will do this time? I hope a metallic paintset of Super Megaforce or Dino Charge similar what they did with Samurai a while back. It's most likely that they will do Shieldless MMPR Green Ranger since it's MMPR after all.

After how Bluefin sort of just said without actually saying they aren't doing sentai imports/power rangers anymore? My guess is nothing this year :(

I was hopeful for an MMPR Metallic Armor 6-pack because it would be so easy to produce. But I highly doubt we'll be seeing it now. They seem to have all but forgotten Power Rangers fans once they made a quick dime on them. But they currently don't have the rights to release Gokaiger or Kyoryuger figuarts anyway, nor is their any indication they plan to release them ever. They don't even list Power Rangers as a property they carry any longer in all their most recent official listings.

If they do anything, Shieldless Green would be it sadly. I want one but I just don't know that they'd think they could sell it. It should have been a 2-pack with Armored Black. Oh well I made my own anyway.

I don't know why I'm asking, since I've never used them, but since when was this happening?

What was it, this summer? It doesn't mean that you'll never see a Sentai SHF with a Bluefin sticker on it - we've still been getting the Showa guys coming at retail in Japan - but the Power Rangers focus and unique packaging and all that added effort is basically over now.

Hey, maybe this is the year we'll actually see a MonsterArts exclusive happen again...! But that's a different topic.

Yeah it was this past year, basically they refused to comment on things to us at SDCC. Then at NYCC our guy doing coverage had a lengthy interview (which we posted in this thread) where they stated they're essentially done with Tokusatsu figuarts. It's why they haven't pursued licenses for new riders or sentai.
