Yeah, somehow Akibaranger is my Figuart exception, so I'll be getting these guys. I can't wait for more AkibaFun. :)

I still don't have any of the Akibaranger SHFs. I do want all of them though. It'll be a while before I get them I think, but they're not as inflated as some others, so I think I'll be okay.

I'll eventually need that stupid car too.

Also to comment on the Super Hero Taisen Z shots, the small shot on the bottom shows some of the space-themed toku characters that'll be involved...and Decade. So it looks like Decade'll possibly play some part in the movie too instead of being a background rider.

Cue Matrixbeast in 3...2...1... :lol

AkibaYellow and Blue v2 will need something more than new heads and garters for me to buy those again. Unless they're exclusive, they're going to pegwarm harder than the previous two.

id probably get them at retail price, but even for red's remold im perfectly content with my S1 Akibarangers.

If theres a season 3 i may cry

Akiba Red's new suit reminds me of Lautrec's from Dark Souls. Except Lautrec just has arms wrapped around him and not a Siamese ranger twin sticking out of him.

Further proof Toei doesn't learn from past mistakes.

These figures are such a tough sell. They're virtually identical to the S1 Akibarangers. I'm not sure the minute differences warrant another $50 each. I wonder what Bandai's expectations are for these and if they'll anticipate lower demand than S1 and so produce them as Tamashii Web Exclusives? So weird they decided to make these - especially without creating incentives for them like human heads or something...anything...

Someone got gipped I think. At no point were they ever more than say $35 each. The original releases of these figures retailed for 3000 yen each at a max. And they've enjoyed a steady drop in price since then, they've even settled close to 1000 yen a piece now.
