Release MG on 2 month basis, staggered it with HG, RG, RE100, FM, sangokuden, etc in some month concurrently so u dont flood MG in the market while still continuously earning money from cheaper kits. This way in a year only hav 6 mayb 7 MG releases. IBO is currently running n u wan to focus on it, 3 IBO this year n sprinkle the rest with previous series releases like Wing, Seed, 00, old school 2.0s, GBF, ver Ka. Continue the trajectory the following year and u still hav plenty to spare from the previous series design. When new series appear, just replace it with IBO schedule and push IBO into the rest of piles continuing the cycle.
By the time IBO winds down new series will take its place and IBO with its potential for 72 suits + several more valkyries can b the next cow to milk. Of cuz 72 is just a number, there is no way all 72 appear in the series no matter how popular it gets, most will just skimp through by name only some may not even be mention at all. But it does giv an opportunity to extend beyond what will be seen by the series conclusion in the form of side stories. The magnus opus of some of these series is the long list of suits design, if IBO turns out to bomb just take a look at how much u hav left off the table from Seed / Destiny, Wing, 00. Each of those series can sustain u for a year by itself and in time all these too shall be 2.0s, 3.0s, whatever.0s. 24months? More like 24 years.
Heck u wan to pump up more sales, make it a theme. 2017 year of the villain all MGs are antagonist suits. 2018 manly theme. 2019 masked man theme. U can deliver the cheque to me later bandai, i wan it in USD denomination.
Also stop the p bandai crap. If they dun need it to pump up sales figures during dark days of G-Wing-X-Turn A era, they sure as hell dun need it now.
This. Bandai execs sure did some wtf decisions. Aside from the EW series as P-Bandai, the Crossbones are also shunted there.
I do understand the need for P-Bandai, but I wish the selection are a bit more selective to make it you know, PREMIUM. I'm all for add-ons and parts like the hi-nu and nu gundam's HWS system, the FA addons, the PG Unicorn and Banshee parts as P-Bandai. Heck, bling2 MG Phenex should have been P-Bandai.
