They tend to do everything, especially for such a small series as this. Won Tiger should be retail, and then the turtle and the giant dragon will be Preban. Zero doubt in my mind all of them are happening

I'd guess, like anything, it depends on sales. DaiMugen is probably certain just because it combines and interacts with the other two, but I can see Daijinryu quietly being shuffled into Bandai Puragtory (TM) with the other two Megaranger megazords if the pre-orders don't hit satisfactory levels.

I've been hoping for this since the line was announced. Let me have it!

But Daijinryuu would be really cool. If Bandai can make a HG Neon Zeong kit in a box bigger than a small child, they can give us Daijinryuu (I know they're different lines, please don't take that sentence seriously)

The thing is that when it comes to stuff they didn't cover, it was either VERY early in SMP's life where it wasn't quite as popular and they couldn't reliably say everything would sell; or it was a series with a huge amount of stuff to cover anyway (Victory Mars). And even then they have now started a project specifically to cover everything they missed!
Their mission statement now very much seems to be doing everything, and with Dairanger being a popular request on polls I don't think they see any of its small roster of robos as a particular risk. And a Daijinryuu is the sort of huge impressive thing SMP likes to do! It almost certainly won't be in scale (I think it would literally have to be as tall as an average adult??) but I'm fairly certain they'll do him

I'd be happy with a scaled-down version, but how much smaller would it become?

I'm betting along the lines of SMP Grand Liner

Either that OR, make him size equivalent to a Titan Class Transformer like Fortress Maximus. Problem solved, since 2 feet tall could potentially work.

Yeah, that's what I'm imagining/would like. Maybe slightly taller, since Daijinryuu isn't as chonky.
Looks like that's about the approach they used for the DX releases as well.

SMP isn't exactly to scale model to model. But within the same series, it looks like they try to keep compatibility.
I could see an extra large kit being made.

With Dairanger confirmed now does this complete the list of the Sentai series constantly ranked at the top of the SMP polls throughout the years?
Wasn't Hurricanger ranked high too and could possibly be next if they don't jump back to doing a Showa series? Although I want Carranger to get attention and I hope they do consider revisiting GoGo V to give us Victory Mars and yeah Megaranger as well lol |
