Absolutely a fair question. I was considering getting Legends Super Ginrai when I found out the TR PM Prime would not be compatible with God Bomber, but when I found out the Siege on Cybertron set was coming out, which had essentially the same toy, plus a few others I didn't mind owning, for a better deal overall, the choice was pretty simple. Even the special LGEX release of God Ginrai was more expensive to import than Legends God Bomber and TR Siege on Cybertron set altogether, or they were very close in price, and just getting the TR Siege set offered more toys for my money.
*edit* looking back at my purchases from BBTS in May of 2017 I ordered the Siege on Cybertron set for $100 (Legends Super Ginrai was almost this expensive on its own). Legends God Bomber was $70 to import as it was coming close to being out of stock.
I think when LGEX God Ginrai came out it was close to, if not more than $170 altogether to import...

King Exkiser.
I can see Takara retooling Star Saber into a new modern King Exkiser.
Can they though? Bandai owns the BRAVE series, I think they might have something to say about it
Very true, and very unfortunate. My son and I have been playing through the most recent Super Robot Wars games. They include some of the Brave Series, and we have enjoyed watching the ones we can find. Unfortunately Sunrise animation (acquired by Bandai) has the rights to the whole Brave Series now, so it makes those toys from the 90's extremely Expensive, and sought after despite their limited articulation.
Bandai does make some high end Chogokin type toys, but unfortunately TT wont be able to tap that well again any time soon. GaoGaiGar is absolutely flipping amazing by the way
every Transformers fan should give it a watch. I even have a whole separate thread talking about Transformers inspired sightings in other Brave series, but that is a discussion for that thread.
