Despite the extra cost, I find myself hoping that most of these new Gaim figures aren't retail so I don't have to fight for them. I'm still kicking myself for sleeping through Kachidoki's pre-order.

Aaah Jam looks great. Love the color scheme so much.

Damn you Bandai... Damn you for making even Jam look gorgeous in Figuarts form.

I may well be tempted to get Mars and Kamuro now as well...

Jam is the one I was most excited for so it's great to a good picture of it. I love it and hope its easy to get when(if) it comes out.

I honestly don't see anymore future Gaim releases receiving a retail treatment. Both Zangetsu Shin and Duke are TWE, so that likely means the last two energy Riders are TWE. After that, you get a couple of one-off or rarely seen forms like Suika Arms, Ryugen Yomi and Jam, and movie Riders. I think the only one with even a chance at a retail release is Knuckle, but that's extremely slim.

Exactly. All of the exclusives so far have been much more important characters. There's no way any future Gaim Riders, should they actually see release, will be anything but web exclusives.

I honestly don't see any reason to own Jam. He was a crappy one shot character that did absolutely nothing but get his ass handed to him when push came to shove. Not only that, but he had no development whatsoever.

I just really, really dig his design.

Awesome. That's one less going to you since it clearly doesn't appeal to you. No need to hate all over it just because you aren't buying it or don't like it.

Me too. There's characters that I think are utter crap but I like their designs. The main villains from Dragon Ball GT come to mind in my opinion. I will likely end up picking Jam when he goes up for pre-order.
