Pre-Ordered Ranger Key Sets

What to do when there's such a popular anniversary season like Gokaiger? PRE-ORDER!

It's crazy! Gokaiger toys are selling like hot cakes and almost every other item is out of stock (even after multiple restocks online). Blame Bandai Japan and its evil ingenious schemes. LoL.

This is especially true for the Ranger Key sets especially when they are the main selling gimmick of the series.



As pictured, 3 repeats for the DX Ranger Keys: Go-OnRed, ShinkenRed and GoseiRed. Really nice, Bandai Japan...

Pre-Ordered the following at La Tendo:
- Ranger Key Set 06 (Go-Onger)
- Ranger Key Set 07 (Shinkenger)
- Ranger Key Set 08 (Goseiger)
- Ranger Key Set DX (Metallic Gokaiger)
- Ranger Key Set SP (15 Red Rangers)

Figured that it would be hard to depend on Uncle's stock since there's no guarantee that he could get the goods (or in some cases very late). Not to mention that Uncle's prices have become less competitive this year; I had to pay S$25.00 for a Ranger Key Set and it's the Bandai Asia Imported Version. In contrast, I'm now paying S$18.00 for the Japanese Version at La Tendo.

Currently, I'm holding back on the Gokai Tranger (Treasure) Box because I missed the pre-order at Fujiya. Hopefully, Uncle can get it for a cheaper price.



And it comes with the last Red DX Ranger Key - NinjaRed to complete all 35 Red Rangers! Brilliant, Bandai Japan.
