Piccolo's arms fall off all of the time.
Gohan's hands are too loose
Trunk's right arm falls off

Man, do you just get bad QC samples of EVERYTHING? The only time my figures ever have issues is usually when they're used. When I buy new, everything is pretty stellar. One arm on my Gohan likes to fall off, but it'll stay in just fine.

I don't think it will. In the same way that Gaim figuarts probably won't have figures of all the various arms per figure. Possibly just the ones used most on the show. They'll reserve that feature for the gimmick line. I think.

Of course, unless Tokkyuger is well written (and I pray to the mighty gods it is), I might not even bother with the Figuarts because the suits are just down right awful. AkibaRanger looks more like a Sentai team than these guys.

I think they look great. Back to simple. Lends itself better to the color swapping.

Letting the males turn into the other males and the two females into each other makes sense, since they could just release a male pink/yellow body and a female red/blue/green as exclusives. But that would be assuming everyone except red isn't already an exclusive and I just don't think the Sentai guys sell well enough for them to bother. Maybe every release could be a 2-pack, with a male and female varient for each?

If the show is successful and they do the gimmick, it wouldn't surprise me if the main bodies are normal/exclusive releases like normal, and then all the swap parts would be some huge premium bandai set.
