They've already got a license deal involving the Power Rangers--isn't that
Saban? I don't know anything about the Gundam-style genre, so I don't know
which company owns which properties.
Anyway, I'm delighted to see that they plan to market the sets outside of
Asia. If anyone spots them in the US, please let me know.
Thanks for the info!
