S.H. Figuarts Hakaider Squad Teased
 

No release details yet, but with Gil Hakaider on the horizon it's only a matter of time!

Ooooh. Buybuybuy!

YES.

So happy they're definitely gonna do these. I don't care how they come out, I just need them. Next step: Bijinder and Waruder!

Still waiting for 90s Hakaider.

I think it'll be a single figure with 3 should parts, kind of like the the Shocker Riders.

There are more difference between them than just the shoulderpads. The parts that are yellow on the normal Hakaider suit are different colors on the other ones.

Even if it was somehow a single figure (which I highly doubt, my bet's on a 3-pack) I'd still buy 3 of them to display the whole squad.

Has Tamashii Nations ever done a 3-pack, though? I'd think that they'd be wary of doing that with how badly the Samurai 5-pack sold. I know they aren't exactly comparable, but it'll still be a very pricey release (esp. with it almost guaranteed to be web exclusive). I'd expect it to be ~$130-150, and the last time they did something of that caliber that I can recall was the Ride Shooter, and I don't think that did very well.

That would be extremely dumb. No one who wants the Hakaider Squad is just going to buy one of them.

Consider its three remoulds with paint changes and new weapons, the manufacturing costs would probably be pretty low. It's only going to be catering to a specific sect of fans and those fans will be prepared to pay that price.

Besides, they did a 6-pack of Shocker troopers didn't they?

They've done 2-packs loads of times. This wouldn't be that different. Hell they've even done 2-packs for the larger scale Makai Kado Garo figures. 3 Figuarts is definitely not out of the realm of possibility. You're greatly underestimating the fact that they have sold things in this price range before and done quite well with them.

The Samurai 5-pack was a completely north american exclusive thing though. The web shop had nothing to do with that as far as I know. In much the same way they had nothing to do with Armored Black Ranger. Those are shelfwarmers here because US fans didn't buy them, web shop items play an entirely different ball game.
