That would have been fantastic, but it's actually King Gridman (Phormo to SSSS fans).
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. |

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

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.

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.

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..
