Looks like they're picking up the pace a bit. I can't wait until I can buy Gokaiger and Go-Busters!

Won't be too long before they release Timeranger, I've been buying the sets but that's one I'm looking forward to the most.

Shout! Factory is only releasing Super Sentai shows that were used for Power Rangers, right? Wonder if the pre-PR Jetman might have a chance at being licensed.

Probably not unless they get caught up & the sets keep selling well.

They previously said that they do have access to the 15 pre-Zyuranger series (as in Toei is open to licensing them to Shout Factory), but their focus at the moment is the series that were adapted into Power Rangers (plus Go-Busters and Toqger when they get there). They'll eventually look into the older shows if/when they get closer to the current Sentai.

Assuming they're speeding up the releases to three series a year, it'll take till 2024 to get to Kyuranger, so strap yourself in for a long wait.

Just look at this company's catalog and you will see they are a nostalgic-powered company.
If you want to go real old-school!, Shout! has some "Best Of" moments from "The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet"

Megaranger isn't news--that was announced a few months back. But they are picking up the pace, it seems like.

If they keep doing two a year, they'll get to Shinkenger by 2023.
