It makes a lot of sense too -- of the main four Riders, Lazer was the only one that didn't get a retail release (disregarding his, uh, unconventional nature) and it completes that one iconic shot.

It's definitely a good choice, as are most things here -- a lot of them fall under stuff that had something really stupid and limited about their release (Evol, Ohma Zi-O) or are so important and prominent to the point they never should have been exclusive in the first place (Cross-Z, Zangetsu Shin, Grease, Lazer). And just about all of them are very expensive to get on the aftermarket. It's also why so much stuff here is Build -- that's the line where things REALLY started to get piled onto Premium Bandai, and at least Zi-O and Ghost got all their main ones at retail.

Bit surprised at a lack of Ex-Aid beyond Lazer though, especially absolutely no Genm. Maybe his popularity's finally starting to wear off? Machine Builder, Rogue, Chaser and Necrom also shock me in their absence given Machine Builder's accessory pack nature and the others' importance and popularity - they certainly fall under 'why is this not retail' - though I bet a lot of these are in the 11th-15th places.
