If you're going to claim this as a precedent with the metallic deco, then Skull Crystal beat this set to that years ago. And then there's the OOO TaJaDol Effects set, which actually was reissued via Tamashii Web, totally intact and unchanged. Off-topic, there's also been one or two other cases of that happening with Tamashii Web, I think something for the Robot Damashii line.

Not that I'm complaining or anything, even if it means a metallic redeco, finding a way to get exclusives as old and expensive as the rest of Shinkenger to the US is a great thing, even if it's not of benefit to everyone.

Only sold as a set? Damn. I really wanted that Shinken Pink

Called it... though normal Red would have been better.

I would be all over this...BUT that metallic finish is such a turn off to me. Don't get me wrong, they are lookin all kids of good, but I just want the normal team to go with my normal red.

*throws his wallet at that picture* Take my money!!

lol

*throws his wallet at the picture* Still no money coming out...

I would like this...but I don't know if I'm enough of a fan of Shinkenger to warrant picking this up.

Dear lord do Pink and Blue look great with that deco. Not feeling Yellow so much...

Gold would look really good with this. It would be screen accurate to the shots where Genta is in the cockpit or during talking close ups.

I think it deffo improves Blue the most, there is something really off with Yellow though, the metallic paint almost makes her look dirty somehow, I dunno how to explain it.

Well, it's precendent for a North American release at the very least. Because we had known that getting the rest of the Shinkengers over here was a big nope due to them having been web exclusives.
