Those helmeted figures are the first run Zords, actually.
The helmetless figures are the second run and introduce the smaller Claw, Scorpion, Shark and Light Zords. (The first run Zords, which is all the way up to Octo, are repacked and have helmetless figures in this second run as well.) The Scorpion comes with Deker and the helmet does not come off.
I'm sure you'll see the helmetless ones later on.

Really? Ours come in boxes, was that the case with the first-run figures over there too?

Still better than the bubble packaging of some electronics. Good lord, I'm always scared of cutting myself when handling those.
One final question: do they all come with cardboard cutouts of the Zords there? Because here they don't.

Helmeted: No. Helmetless, both waves: Yes. Even the helmetless repacks of Green, Blue, all of Gold's and all of Red's Zords come with the cardboard cutouts.
Even Deker's Scorpion has one, I believe.

I hate to quote my own post, but I wanted to continue the chat...
I just recently bought the Gosei Great Megazord and Sky, Land and Sea Brothers sets. I just now bought the Lion Brothers bikes. I just need Gosei Ground Lion Mechazord and I have the complete set. I missed out on it when it hit TRU.com. (I won't miss again...) Not quite the same quality of Samurai/Super Samurai toys, but they're nice. If they hit Europe, I do recommend them.

I'll be in the US permanently by then, but good to see the Gosei series is out. By the way, what is Datas Hyper called over there, and will he be out? I wanna make at least Hyper Gosei Great

I can help with that.
Hyper Gosei Great: http://distilleryimage0.s3.amazonaws.co ... 9858_6.jpg
Here he is without the Hyper Header from the Lion Bike: http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_mdvm0 ... 1_1280.jpg
Here's the Hyper backpack: https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-Q5Ob ... 45_909.jpg (Although, the real color scheme is red in the center, blue on the right shoulder, gray on the left shoulder. This guy wanted the color scheme to look more like Datas Hyper. Personally, I prefer the original BoA color scheme of gray red and blue.)
It should be noted that the last picture I linked to came from this post on Rangerboard.
The previous two pictures came from a Google Image Search. If the people responsible want credit, they can send a message and I'll give them their credit.
