If we're getting a form that was never even prototyped before a more final design like God Zenon, it's possible we'll still see that as a later exclusive as well. I don't think the Thunder Gridman experiment worked out to merit a mass release if this was the result.

Oh weird then again I never actually watched SHS so what would I know lol. I do want to watch it eventually though.

Aww man (/TommyOliver) but that two-pack of Boukenblack and Boukenblue is going to be hard to resist!

I am tempted by all of the Gridman releases. I have stayed away from Gridman himself because of the numerous reports of broken wrists, but Thunder and King may be too much for me. If they ever release Xenon and Drago, well, stick a fork in me because my goose is cooked.

(Also: cmon T-N and Tsuburaya, give us a freaking VIRUS already!)

The one Gridman I'd actually consider getting is a Web Exclusive. That's a non-surprise.

Thunder Gridman appears to be a big disappointment according to most reviews I've read. So it doesn't surprise me that King is an exclusive.

Black & Blue as a set is a bit unusual, but yet another sign that Sentai designs are least profitable.

Why are there five SHF listings in the translated list but only four in the scan? The Shocker Grunt is listed as a general release elsewhere.

[Den-O]

Because the Shocker Grunt is also apparently mentioned for release in the issue. It just isn't on that page for some reason.

In the scan here: http://www.tokunation.com/showthread.php?t=33835 it looks to be a general release.

Got it! Thanks for the heads up. I'll edit the post

I am psyched to hear we're getting Bouken Black and Blue - not because I'm any huge fan of Boukenger, but because we're closer to completing another Sentai team.

I'm fine with 2-packs. They could even do 4 or 5-packs if it meant guaranteeing team completion. And since the bodies feature so much reuse, and because of the bulk sale, a modest price reduction would be appreciated and in order. I hope we get pink, yellow, and silver soon.

I'm really looking forward to more original figures like Mele, Rio, Akaranger, etc. I always care least about the new Sentai team. Kyoryuger can wait. I'd much rather get some of the characters from way back. How cool would it be to have a complete team of Battle Fever J or JAKQ?

Aw man, Beast Hyper is an exclusive? Reeeally glad I sprang for the regular form of a Rider instead of final now..
