    Wait.

    You'd rather just have an ugly ass flight stand that does nothing other than be ugly while holding up Victory Saber?

    LOL. Okay.

    Still, a very Japanese and very Sentai show-like show, obviously not 1:1 but lots of similarities in the characters, plots, themes, etc. to that genre.


    Gotta agree. I wouldn't mind if they did a sound chip, but those kind of things inevitably feel wasted after the first ten minutes.

    Electronics are an opportunity for batteries to be forgotten about and to leak. I can 100% do without them - if I want Victory SFX I'll put on my DVDs!

    Also the voice of Piccolo, Yamcha, Recoome, Shenron the eternal dragon, and Mr. Popo. Guy does alot of amazing voices from DBZ.
    Also the voice of Zoro from one piece and Kuwabara from Yu Yu Hakusho.

    I feel like you haven't actually watched Sentai shows.

    Then toss it. Either way, it's better than a said ugly ass flight stand that is an otherwise waste of plastic .

    with them having put up S1-4 on YouTube here recently, it doesn't seem totally out of the question (if a bit weird... seems particularly strange they'd do Victory before Headmasters or Masterforce)

    I am quite fond of "an ugly ass flight stand". Why does the stand need to be more than a stand?

    What you want to offer me something free ontop of the promised goods I am willing to buy at that price? Bonus!!

    Demanding it be something more is cringe and very entitled behavior.

    I'm glad battery operated things are gone from TFs. On all figures I have I tried them once, removed the batteries, and never used that part again. Fort Max (TR) would have been better if they used the electronics budget for more new tooling.

    I am right there too. So many figures suffered because of electronic gimmicks. Heck gimmicks in general have made things not as solid, out of proportion or just unusable. There are exceptions, I will concede that point. Everyone likes something different though.

    (I love any excuse to drop that meme)

    I'd be more glad about them being gone if we weren't paying 1.5-2x as much as we were when we had them. (part of Hasbro's ongoing "give them less but charge them more" strategy)

    Agreed. I’m also not a fan of either forgetting about the batteries and having them corrode and leak.
