NS Blue came out with the other rangers in Wave 1.

The real problem happened in the later waves.

MMPR Pink and In Space Yellow.

Basically what happened was these were staying on the shelves. Retailers weren't ordering more cases because they had Space Yellow and MMPR Pink(which I think cleared inventory more than Space Yellow) stuck around.

So they aren't getting in the other colors. It was wrong of Bandai to have this kind of system. They aren't selling as many units before they forced this system.

The last wave was a fiasco. For an extremely long time the waves weren't making it's way across the country. Probably thanks to those previous figures still on shelves.

I have never seen the remaining In Space figures outside Gamestop.

Bandai thought there was huge demand with the MMPR figures and didn't understand that it's because they just weren't in the stores. So they put out too much stock over their own mistake.

Bandai screwed themselves over and blamed the fanbase for not buying. They made a sexist toy. They put too much of it out in stores. Stores won't buy more cases because on paper they have plenty of figures.

They look at say Yellow IS Ranger and it's equal to the Red IS Ranger.



Now it seems that Bandai is holding back on the female rangers. This could have been okay but now it looks like the Zeo/Dino Thunder wave has seriously production issues. Well issues that Bandai intentionally caused. They didn't use gold paint and they removed articulation.
