... eeeexcept price.

And that's kind of the main thing here -- Gashat's talking value for what you get, and I can't really say I disagree with them. My SHF RabbitRabbit and Seihou OOO, for instance, are far ahead of anything that could be produced during those years; but looking at how much I paid for Fourze, how good he is and how much he comes with? It's difficult to not see some of these earlier SHFs as a better deal. I've said it before -- I'd happily see some SHFs return to the quality of the likes of Gaim if it meant more accessories, lower prices and more at retail.

That last point by the by is something I think you missed, Gashat -- though you did touch on it. Not just the bike, not just the four main riders; but even Kachidoki and Kiwami were retail. Now Gaim is still where we started to see a large influx of P-Bandai stuff - mostly because Gaim is also where we started seeing a large influx of suits - but looking at what was at retail it was very reasonable, especially compared to today.
