  1. I think this could be a lot of things. A very solid indicator is the sell-out numbers. Obviously since Guyver is serialized under Shonen Ace, which is published monthly and has a much smaller circulation than other popular magazines like Shonen Jump (which is published weekly), the exposure is not as mainstream like those of Naruto, One Piece or the likes. The author might also not be too keen on accepting collaboration with other forms of medium. The reason why we see a lot of Guyver figures is probably because he is friends with Max Watanabe who is a legend amongst hobbyist. In addition, when they rebooted the anime into a 26 episode series, it did not do quite as well as expected. Lastly, us cult followers of Guyver are few in numbers, and despite our support for the franchise, does not generate enough profits to merit pressures from management to push for Guyver.
