Yeah, technically Gaim, Drive and Ex-Aid all use early versions of the hip joints we'd see with Seihou releases while Build and Zi-O retain the drop-down design.
Personally I'd want them to keep using the hybrid style they used for Zenkaizer where applicable, I love how his hips look and function.

For big sites like ZenMarket that directly latch onto PB and act as a proxy? Maybe.
Middleman services shouldn't be affected, they are basically the secondary market, not much Bandai can do about that. Middlemen are paying customers, Bandai won’t care what they do with the figures they already sold. |

I was able to purchase Rider 2+1 from anime-export, and it was also offered on Hobby Genki. So yes, middleman are still an option it seems. Although the more obscure stuff could be harder to track brand new

They seem more willing to pump out more Sentai releases using the drop-down method because it took them a while to confirm Gokai Red for release imo so I hope we do see or get more legacy Sentai announcements. Come on Dekamaster you would definitely benefit from a Seihou style body |

Welp, that sucks. Time to use middlemen services.
Otherwise, it's off to Yahoo Auction or Mandarake, but, well, that's a whole other ballpark.

Oof, hope that Hobby-Genki and similar websites aren't affected.

Middlemen are essentially just re-sellers, so in PB' eyes: Paying customers. |

Well, hopefully they start using P Bandai US more to sell to their overseas customers more. Especially with their Kamen Ridr SHFs. It's good that they started selling them with Geats, so I really hope they keep it up.
