Finally got the DX Samuraizer!

For some reason though, the sounds are like REALLY soft. I'm thinkin' the batteries' been drained. The instructions are in 'Shinkenger' lol

Is there any reason *why* BoA couldn't have brought over the Shinkenger role play stuff?

WHY DAMNIT?!? :sly:

Spider Zord?

Price. Parents/Kids aren't going to pay $30-$40 for a Morpher, and up to $70-$80 for a Megazord.

True, true.

I'm sure die-hard collectors would pay out the ass to own these products, but who are they to Boa?

Unless they did the pricing to themselves that will be suitable for everyone's pockets.

I know there has a been a "Collector's movement" as of late stiring.
One than proposes that BoA split Power Rangers merch into 2 zones:

-"Kids", the stuff you see out now at mass retail
-"Adults/Collectors", essentaly selling Reboxed/Imported Sentai toys, most likey from a online store like the Tamashii Web Shop.

Pretty much, kids/parents would still have their costed down, safe price range stuff the have now. And Adult Collectors would be able to buy BoJ's sentai toy's directly from Bandai (of America) at whatever they work out a good price would be (i could see main sentai mecha going for $90-$100, changers around $50).

Bandai claims they listen to what the fan's have to say, maybe if enough people mail them/sign petitions, it will happen?

Just joined but thought I'd share what samurai toys I've been collecting already all year:



Anxiously awaiting that bull.

That is a really sweet collection! All I have are the Samurai Megazord, Clawzord, and Octozord. ^^;

Well, that's just great - it suffers from the same mute issue as the Bandai Asia release of the DX Mobirates. I'll pass on this.
