I'm sorry, but I find that reasoning to be bs. First off, there is nothing wrong with pink. Secondly, it makes the toy not show accurate, and I'm quite certain there are a lot of boys out there that will be bothered by that (I was when the Shogun zords came out and there was not White one). Third, a boy is not going to say, 'I don't want that because it has a pink piece to it. I only need the other 9 I have with pink zords." Finally, we live in a world were MLP is a big thing among children, and pink is a prominent color. There are just as many boys who love it as girls. Bandai is either lying their ass off or they polled three kids from their own offices when it was "Take Your Child to Work" day.
