I've been pretty much not touching any movie only riders. I'm honestly not a fan of the movies outside of Episode Final, especially when it comes to Blade. The Blade movie was just insulting.

Also, I'm agreeing with Dr. Kain on most of what he's saying, but it takes a while to finish teams but it makes it easier for people to get their favorite senshi from a sentai, plus most people these days only focus on the red rangers for older teams now unless it's for one that also aired in the USA sadly, I REALLY hope Go-Ranger's Aka Ranger sells well in the USA as a Bluefin release. I really want them to get the rest of the damn Dai-Ranger & Jet-Man figures released .-.

What surprises me is that when they make one ranger, they already have the tooling done for the majority of the team. When they did RyuuRanger, they already have the bodies for Kirin, Tenma, and Shishi made. All they need to do is their helmets. The only one that would need an entirely new sculpt is Houou. Granted, some of the weapons would be individualized, but that is why I think they should have just done the standard Dairenrod instead of the specialized one they gave Ryuu. At least they can use the standard Dairinken with each ranger.

Maybe that is why the other three Jetmen are taking so long...

I'd definitely be willing to collect more Sentai figuarts, but the only ones I've been collecting are the Zyurangers because they're the only ones whom I know for sure will be a complete team.

I'm at this weird point, currently. My plan was to get every single ranger released regardless of my feelings on the series, but the more I think about it, that might not be a good thing. As amazing as it would be to own every ranger in history, I don't have the room or money for it. I think maybe I will just start buying the reds to my least favorite teams, my favorite sixths, and then collect the full teams of my favorite series, especially those in my top 10 (Dai, Kaku, Geki, Aba, Car, GoGoV, Time, Jet, Zyu, Gokai (well, I already own all of these guys)).

Of course, since Sentai is in this rut for Figuarts, I want to support any ranger I can... UGH!!

My idea of what they could do is this. Release a 5 pack of the main team (or 3 depending on the team) every quarter, and then when the next 5 pack comes out, release the red ranger from the previous pack on its own. This way, if someone only wants the red ranger, they just have to wait 3 months to get it. If someone wants the full team, they can get the whole team in one shot without worrying if the entire team is going to come out or not.

I would gladly pay $200 for an entire team pack just like I did with the Shikenger pack Bluefin released last year. In fact, that was the main reason I bought the pack, I got all of the rangers I needed in one go.

BTW, I just realized I am a freaking idiot. I preordered Shadow Chaser and Green Clover from NY and the total after shipping and middleman fees is about $75 for each. BBTS is selling them for $95. For $20 more I could have just gotten them from a US seller.
