And plenty of people don't care about the bonuses. Lot's of people don't collect every piece ever from a show, bonuses of this nature are much easier for people to skip as they aren't necessary to the basic forms of the characters.

I suppose I just thought of these not so much as bonuses, but as parts of the figure, ya know? Like how Super 1 comes with all his different Hands - they're his gimmick. They wouldn't put those in an extra "bonus" set because it's what he does. Drive switches out Tires, and while I don't expect him to come with more than one other (besides Type Speed); I figured he would at least come with the Flare, by itself, as a normal pack-in. Kinda like how the base Fourze figuarts came with two modules, standard. Ya know...give you the basic stuff, but put the rest in bonus packs.

It just seems like they're making a standard item a limited-time bonus. At least Flare; I can understand the others as bonus items attached to the other figures for a limited time, and I don't really expect them to make ALL the tires for the Figuarts guys.
