Oh my god! Where's the Sentai and Kamen Rider stuff?? Those are the awesomest toys of Japan! xD

[CollectionDX]

I was wondering about that myself... >:(

But- as JoshB explained it to me- Super Sentai and Kamen Rider are the exception to modern/classic Japanese toys, rather than the mainstream.

...I say BS, since they've both been running continuously since the early 70s(!), and most of the collectors stuff sold here hasn't been re-aired since original broadcast(s)!

You'll find- as I reluctantly have- that these older toys bring an incredible amount of nostalgia and bragging rights with them, and maybe that overshadows the newer 'non-mainstream' materials like Super Sentai and Kamen Rider. (I'm not in deep, or flexible, enough to say for certain.)

Cause america screwed up it the first time that it was only until recently kamen rider was allowed again to air, but now i hope they reban it cause honestly it sucks, the story is off

I don't get why people are so quick to bash "KR:DK"...

If you *do not* compare it to "...Ryuki", then it's not a bad transition for the franchise in general. It's not the same story & characters, no, but it never claims to be.

...But, we're talking about Super Sentai and Kamen Rider in Japan, *not* in the US.
