Oh man, what a blast from the past. I had the DX as a kid but my neighbor stole a few pieces (red and white), this wasn't high on my priority list but it sure is tempting now that I'm presented with it.
Will we get BullTaurus as well? I love that design.

Why do they keep skipping the Disney Era Megazords?

One speculation I have is that kids of the 80s and 90s who grew up on those shows in Japan, and to an extent the Fox Kids generation and other relevant media outlets at the time, are the majority who have disposable income at the moment, roughly people in their 30s and 40s. Another example of this coming into play is Good Smile's Moderoid and The Gattai brand, which has a good chunk of 20th century mecha, primarily the 80s and 90s. That said, I'm sure we'll get to that era of sentai mecha eventually.

I'm definitely part of the Fox Kids and original Saban era of shows so yeah I have a lot of love for the 90s mecha. 90s baby here and my bank account stay ready for anything that was adopted from Tokusatsu such as Beetleborgs and Vr Troopers

It'd be really cool to see some of the early 2000s Sentai get SMP releases. We got a TON of Gaoranger, so I feel like Hurricaneger or Dekaranger would be possible. I, for one, would absolutely buy an SMP GekiTohja
That actually made want to buy this one (of joy)

GekiTohja would be nice. I've always wanted to see an action figure or model kit of it with high articulation.
