We should have gotten the 1995 power rangers movie figuarts insaid that would have been a better release.
After this I have no more trust in Bluefin ever again they don't care about Sentai Figuarts anymore. And I know the line is dead but still with the new movie coming out it would have made more sense for something figuarts related.
I don't see this selling very well not with that big price. This was a dumb toy to make to much money and it will not sell well that for sure.
First of all, do you even know what Soul of Chogokin even is? It's die cast, heavily detailed and, most intriguingly of all, HIGHLY ARTICULATED WHILE STILL BEING FULLY TRANSFORMABLE. Do you realize how awesome that is for a SENTAI ROBO? A series of giant robots who only have shoulder articulation AT MOST?
And for "not selling very well," Tali said it best:

Which, for a company like Bandai, is really really important because it allows them to stay in business and make more toys.
This will sell, of course, not to everyone, but for the collectors and those with the idea of a "definitive" representation. For example, Figuarts V Legacy Figures. While both feature articulation and a closer scale to other figures, it's up to the collector to decide which item they would like to buy. In creating this SOC version, you introduce another option to the market.
Anything else I forgot to mention?
