VR Troopers Season 2 Volume 2 Release Canceled?

The good people at RangerCrew have noticed the removal of Shout! Factory's "Season 2, Volume 2" VR Troopers product listing from Amazon.com and expects cancellation emails to be sent out in the near future.

Coupled with previous reports from Shout! Factory about unsatisfactory sales figures for VR Troopers and Big Bad Beetleborgs means that home releases of both final sets is unlikely at this point.

Aww...

Not cool. Not cool at all. We were just days a way from getting this. What a let down. I hope the 3rd Power Rangers Mega set makes good money so that we can get the 4th & last Mega set.

It's too bad they can't go to a print-on-demand model for some of the less popular titles.

Eurgh great. Time to track down a torrent for the second half of Metallix then I guess...

This is why we posted an article on Shout's behalf last month. This is a real situation from a smaller company. They need proof of profit/sales to justify releasing these final sets. They aren't pulling a Mattel, threatening to cancel something. This is a very real numbers game. Not enough people are buying the previously released sets, and unless that changes, these last couple sets will not see release.

Shout cant be that small of a company if they are getting their product into big box retailers, namely Walmart. I hate to say it but what did they expect from kids niche 90s shows that really werent that good then and are even worse nowadays. If they had released the complete series at once in one shot this wouldnt be an issue now would it?

Own all shows/seasons on DVD.
Never got into VR Troopers. Borgs I watched growing up, too childish now.
They did put out a cool VR Troopers board game - I own that mint.

Ahh, that stinks. I bought both volumes of season 1, and season 2 volume 1 is on it's way from Amazon right now.
