Honestly, only reason I'd want Janperson is cause he's purple

Glad I'm not alone in that regard

I've been meaning to pick up some more Space Sheriff stuff but the issues put me off.. not sure if I should wait to pick up the other characters or see what Bandai does after Renewal Gavan. Thing is, it looks Bandai stands behind the other two and renewal Gavan is meant to go with them? I can never understand Bandai. Shoot, did I just go off topic?

Well anyway, I hope Janperson and Kabutak are released and are not just solo releases.

What I see on Renewal Gavan is full range hips that look like they work much better than the original. Hopefully they aren't as prone to loosening either. The sculpt on the torso appears to be much more robust and accurate as well, especially the detailing around the chest and shoulder area. The wrists are hopefully modified as well as the original 4 Space Sheriff releases all have rather thin brittle wrist ball joints. I've personally experienced a couple breaks with them. Overall it appears to be a great improvement.

I doubt the push for figures mean much for home video release. Even if it did those types of releases are generally very expensive. Prohibitively so for sub groups which do their work for free as well. But if the material ever did get out there in DVD/Blu-Ray form it would definitely increase the likelihood of subs.

Did they announce Goseiger yet.

^ I was hoping for a ToQger late reveal, but Goseiger (one of th best recent sentai suits) needs to also be made.

You are a toku fans best friend, thanks Den-O, that really helps me out. I think I'll hold off and just wait to see what comes after the Gavan renewal. Though as cheap as the others are and the current rate.. might be a good time to be cautious and buy them anyway.

I was trying to figure out if the hips had been improved, glad up wasn't the only one seeing that. It really does look fantastic. I'm fine with buying new versions of figures I have if they are an overall improvement.

Hmm yeah I guess that's just my hopeful dreaming. At least Bandai remembers that Metal Heroes exist and are giving them figures finally.

[MST3KFan]

All these Metal Heroes coming soon and older Sentai teams... My wallet is so hating me right now for what's coming.

I wish they could release them here in the U.S., but I got my Gokaigers, Dekarangers, Go-Busters, and Shinkengers through sites like Mandarake to get them, so it's not a big issue for me.

The fact that I can have a 90s era Saban collection on display soon with MMPR, Masked Rider, VR Troopers, and Big Bad Beetleborgs... I'm honestly stunned as I never thought it would happen.

[Angel]

Wow. The reveals have all been spectacular, and I'm really looking forward to getting as many of these as I possibly can! (:

I'm kind of worried that the other GoRenger will be forever stuck in prototype limbo like some of the other teams though, because I heard that AkaRenger wasn't selling too well.......

[Electric Turahk]

That Kabutack looks really cool.

This year's Tamashii Nations must have been like heaven for metal hero fans haha.

[Kiryu]

The people that paid the current going price for Gavan must be kicking themselves right now.
