It wasn't treated that well.

Dragon Ranger was used three times. (Plus as a Basco summon and a cameo)
Tyranno Ranger was used four times. (Once during a Special)
Mammoth Ranger was used twice. (Plus a Goushi cameo)
Ptera Ranger was used four times. (Once is movie)
Tricera Ranger was used twice.
Tiger Ranger was used three times.

Only twice were more then two Zyurangers used and all 6 were never together. The one other time two were used at the same time, Gai immediately returned to Gokai Silver after passing the Armor to Marvelous. They weren't one of the least used, but they definitely weren't one of the most.

The actor who played Burai ended up retiring from acting.

That is not true at all. Zyu, Dai, and Kaku are highly praised in Japan as they were risks that revolutionized the series. Toei's head writer from the 80s ( believe he did Bioman-Fiveman) had retired after Fiveman. Jetman was Toei's love letter to Gatchaman while ZyuRanger was the start of a new era for Sentai and it worked. Unfortunately, things took a turn for the worst with OhRanger, but CarRanger saved the series from cancellation.

Goggle-V-Fiveman. He even wrote some of Ohranger and Carranger.

Carranger is another show that totally saved the franchise as well. Lots of fans with fond memories there.

In all honesty there's support for quite a few of the early/mid nineties shows in Japan. I'd love to see all of them get the SHF treatment.

Carranger was popular in the late 90's, I think they would sell pretty well in Japan. I'm not sure how Turbo figuarts would sell in the US since a lot of fans hated that season.

No, they really don't. That's why people were concerned.

S.H.Figuarts is the best. When they get the thumb out their asses, Bandai will realize this and then the downpour of Sentai Figuarts will happen. Quite sure they know, and laugh at us as they read these forum posts.

You assume that they read various various forums

I must say its adorable that people think Sentai figuarts actually sell well.

They clog up the shelves in Japan and get shut down to stupidly cheap prices quickly so they can get rid of them.
