:lol these pictures are hilarious!!

I'm curious here. I noticed recently that Figuarts has a figure of Gosei Knight/Robo Knight of Goseiger/Megaforce fame thanks to my searches on Mandarake.

Why do just him and not the rest of the team in Figuarts I wonder... I wouldn't mind Goseiger Figuarts. I mean they did Shinkenger, Gokaiger, Go-Busters, and the Kyoryuger team is coming up.

Thanks :)

I'm pretty sure it is because Sentai Figuarts were just starting up towards the end of Goseiger's run and since Shinkenger had superior ratings, and was ultimately, the superior show, they started with them and then moved right into Gokaiger since that was airing by then.

I see. That makes sense. Shame they didn't do the rest of Goseiger though still. I'd have bought them.

That's a pretty biased point of view, and inaccurate. Goseiger had higher ratings than Shinkenger did anyway. In a couple of head to head episode battles Shinkenger was a couple points higher but the series average for Goseiger is a bit higher than Shinkenger. AND the toy sales were higher because it had an actual collectible gimmick with Headers. The discs from Shinkenger weren't really pushed the same way.

Shinken Red was only produced because it won a pole. And then the others were produced after the fact. Gosei Knight tested the market for Goseiger figuarts and while he sold well enough alot of the ones sold were of average quality. Some paint and plastic tolerance QC issues. The response wasn't quite what Bandai wanted which may be why the others haven't been made yet. But I'd say the influence of Megaforce and the US market could make them come in production more quickly.

It would be cool if the U.S. further influenced Figuarts beyond the female Yellow Ranger for MMPR.

A Lord Zedd, the Lightspeed Titanium Ranger, Goseiger as Megaforce Figuarts...

I know they had a poll at SDCC so it sounds like they're at least interested in seeing what fans might like.

No, it is a fact that Goseiger is inferior to Shinkenger. :p

There rest of was my guesstimation. No idea about any poll though.

Well, maybe, but is it possible to win in a battle of the losers?

THAT'S RIGHT.

*window dive*

Do you have a source for that? Because everything I've read suggested it was actually the other way around - for both viewing figures and toy sales.

I'm curious now.
