Ok so with the announcement of gashapon set 03, we finally will have some version of every Red Key! Hooray!
But now itll be interesting on how they approach the rest of the releases. Will they continue to release Reds in DX, and other colors in gashapon? Or will they still keep the regular format that we've been seeing but move away from reds into different colors? Or maybe even using EX sets of each color as rumors have said?
Im leaning toward them using the EX sets. It allows them to still release DX and gashapon, with reds, and 6thrangers. While still allowing the release of 20 DX keys per month(5 per set, and 4 sets for each gokaiger besides gokai red).
Now BoJ has expierence with this type of merchandising style due to the past to kamen Riders having a similar gimmick(with memories from KR: W and medals from KR: OOO.). Now Im assuming theyll be using the same strategy for Gokaiger. Which means we will get all the keys, even if they have to still be releasing them after the show is finished.
What ever they decide to do, as it stands now all keys will be set for release and I'll be here to cover it!

with the release of key set 3, I would think that they would release them in sets according to the series. (Goranger, JAKQ, ect.) Seems to make sense to me. Fans of Gokaiger will pick them up just to complete the collection, but think of someone that grew up watching Bioman but hasn't watched a sentai series in years. He (or she, I suppose) sees an inexpensive set of miniature figures. Sure, they're for the newest sentai series, but who cares! It would be a very inexpensive nostalgia purchase.
