I mentioned this elsewhere, but it's likely due to the fact that Drive was very well received in Japan and Banno himself seems to have been rather popular, receiving a lot of merchandise after the show ended.

There's also the fact that this is basically a repaint of Type Speed, it would have been very cheap to produce, so it's more worthwhile for them to take the risk on making it a mass retail release.
