If you've read this far, I have a special treat for you. When talking to the Bandai reps about the future line, they said that the plan is to move back to the Japanese series, starting with Shinkenger, probably in 2012.

At least in toy form, with a show probably to follow.

All I can says is: YES!!

A part of me kinda hopes Bandai is wrong about themselves and PR just kinda dies out. Particularly because Shinkenger will be 2-3 years old by the time a supposed show airs. I don't even think I'll care at that point.

I would be happy if they skipped the Shinkenger series and went to the Goseiger series. I couldn't stand to see them try and explain the japanese side and/or turn it in to an american thing.

they should just cut the BS make the show as japanese as possible.

as Japonais as possible, well said, dude.

There's a long history of failure you can read about here if you like, but most of the recent ones involved trying to turn its Pirates of the Caribbean franchise into a consistently profitable line of boys' merchandise. The movies succeeded, but the tie-in goods sure didn't.
