I know Type-High Speed is a hyper battle video thing, but you'd think it would be a given considering it's just an easy Type Speed repaint.

Give us Jam at least, since he did appear in the actual show, even if he pretty much just existed to be a punching bag for Mitsuzane.

I don't know if the movie was popular or not, I just assume they didn't release them immediately because at the time there was still some stuff from the show to sell and when that was wrapped up the interest for more not-so-relevant Riders and forms from Gaim wasn't there anymore.

I can relate, I bought almost every Gaim SHF but had to stop eventually just because of space issues. Maybe a longer break isn't so bad after all and they will release these guys eventually?

If I learned anything it's that Tamashii isn't doing the repaint business as hard as they could. There are so many easy repaints they completely ignore, maybe they don't want to oversaturate the market? Or they know that collectors are just not interested in some things, Hyper Battle forms being among them?

I can only speculate because I don't work there and haven't talked to someone who does, it's just that I also had the thought "Easy repaint, they'll could do it" several times, but then it never happened.

You guys are forgetting the most important form: Deadheat Drive.

You mean the one from Super Movie War Genesis? The only difference being that he uses the Mach Driver to transform instead of the Drive Driver?

Well, they could do it technically, but if you have both Deadheat figures you can just swap the heads for this, right?

I think he meant Super Deadheat Drive from the Surprise Future movie

No, that one already has an SHF. I did mean the Deadheat Drive form from Genesis.

You can, but to be fair parts swapping easily gets you Heart Type Speed Wild Technic too, and less easily Chaser Mach.

Of course, those are more involved than a simple headswap, but still, they certainly could do it. I doubt that they will, but hey, it's there.

I agree, it is a possibility and thus worth pointing out but I also think they won't bother.

From the list Kiryu posted I can only see Lupin being released. Maybe Type Fruits but that's already stretching Drive's popularity in this line I think.

The biggest one left from the show are probably Brain and Medic though.
