Really? Bandai of America made it that hard to get the combining parts for the ultrazord? I didn't know that.

I don't think BOA made it hard to get the parts, but more it was easy to lose parts. I managed to track down everything on eBay, but it took a lot of patience and a lot of luck =p

Still, nice reviews man, I actually watched them ages ago when I was deciding wether to buy everything or not =]

with most of the figures in the secondary market, meaning most accessories are either lost or sold for extortionate prices, and the fact that BoJ sold them as seperate packs its harder than simply buying the mecha and popping them together.

I saw the ultrazord parts on a hobby site for a few £'s, they were gone the same day.

Its tough to find it all in the UK

I can imagine it being tough to get these parts. Just like swords and small accessories.
