S.H. Figuarts Kibaranger (White Ranger) from Dairenger! UPDATED

Bandai is ramping up their production of 90's Super Sentai based figures with the iconic Kibaranger from the Gosei Sentai Dairanger! Of course all the Power Rangers fans out there know this guy as the White Ranger which was Tommy's second form after he stopped being the Green Ranger. Whatever you want to call him, this should be another excellent entry in the S.H. Figuarts line. This figure will come with the usual assortment of optional hands and Kibaranger's signature Byakkoshinken talking sword. He's even getting an extra swap in chest emblem that mimics his guest appearance on Akibaranger! Preorders for this Tamashii Web Exclusive are starting May 9, 2013 with the figure set to be released in September 2013. It is priced at 3,675 yen.

Update: Bluefin Tamashii has released additional information about the stateside release of this figure. 

"The legendary White Ranger (Tommy Oliver) joins the ranks of the Power Rangers high-end S.H.Figuarts action figure line-up. Based off of a Tamashii Web Shop Exclusive only available in Asia markets, this original Mighty Morphin Power Rangers packaged S.H.Figuarts title has been made specially available to North America fans in response to high-demand. Intended for the serious action figure collector, S.H.Figuarts White Ranger features meticulous attention to detail, accurate proportion, and advanced articulation characteristic of the S.H.Figuarts line. Action figure set includes Saba Saber with interchangeable short and long blades, as well as interchangeable hand parts." 

Set for release in the US in October 2013 with a price of $44.99

Now the question is: will

Now the question is: will they remove the extra Akibaranger logo from the American release? As superficial as this extra is, I would hate to get the gimped version.
