I say this all the time to people; sentai isn't meant for American adults, it is for Japanese children and those children enjoy the stories that are being told (enjoy them enough to want to play with the toys while they watch, at least). So why would Toei cater to an audience that complains that the toys are too expensive, when their target audience will go out to the stores on launch day and empty the shelves? Toy dollars drive the toku market, mostly.
