Interesting. I wonder if this will have any impact on importing Super Sentai toys from Japan.

You mean "As Toy Licensee" right? Not "Has Toy Licensee".

I didn't know Haim Saban could do anymore to try and cut out the Japanese heart and soul of that franchise, but there it is.

We haven't gotten any of the Bandai Japan stuff since before Jungle Fury, with the under performing exceptions of the DX Shinken-Oh and DX Gosei Greats they brought to Toys R us.

My understanding is most of the recent Bandai of America toy products have been of very low quality and the fans have been very displeased by it, so this sounds like a good decision. I would prefer to get high quality merchandise made over keeping a toy line purely Japanese.

And thus, the Bandai VS Hasbro debacle continue since the Gobots/Machine Robo licensing issue back in the '80s. This is rather sad in words.
