Luigi!!!!!

(Granted it was probably a foregone conclusion that Bandai would make him too, but it's still nice to see it become reality.)

Nothing terribly exciting, unfortunately. They are showing me nothing new. How about a new ranger team? How about an announcement that they can now bring Gaim stuff to the US? How about some new MonsterArts?

They will only do Nappa if Broly sells well.

Anyway, this bit of depressing news came in from the guys at Tokunation:

Kickbacks interview with Tamashii Nations at SDCC. Just a few moments ago.

Spoke with Adam from @TamashiiNations about some stuff. Tweet answers in a moment.

RE: Finishing Sentai teams Figuarts (Hurricanger, Boukenger) .... (1)
Quote:
(2) From marketing stand point the series may be popular in Japan but not necessarily in USA. Would like to finish but no plans for now.

Quote:
RE Other teams of Power Rangers (Zeo, In Space, Time Force) (1)
Quote:
(2) The only overwhelming favorite from fans in USA is MMPR. In Japan, series popularity varies. That being said...
Quote:
(3) No plans at the moment. Nothing tops MMPR and it's incredibly successful. Thinking of dual marketing, Reds and 6ths are always possible
Quote:
(4) That, and Saban approval has to happen on all "Power Ranger" labeled product. On top of that...
Quote:
(5) They were able to do some figures because of Akibaranger. With no 3rd season happening, no way to use it to justify figure release.

Please note: these are my notes, not actual quotes.

RE Lord Zedd FiguartsZero (1)
Quote:
(2) Want to do it badly. Obstacles include it's a pure MMPR item with no Sentai counterpart as well as Saban approval.
Quote:
(3) But IF it did happen, would still be some time down the road (a couple years).

Quote:
Special thanks again to @TamashiiNations ... Please check out our pics of their beautiful booth and buy those exclusives!!

As such, that means ranger Figuarts are pretty much done as no teams will be completed. :-( I see no point in even bothering to get some of the others I have yet to get now.
