Exactly. Heck as of the Season 3 episodes, the Otoboto Family has shifted focus to now marketing and whoring the current merch related to the show. Examples (seen in the attached screen shots), like the dvds, the lucky draw contests, the arcade/card battle game, the fashion line and heck EVEN the Disney Label toys which ain't Animated related. Takara-Tomy knows what they are doing, trust me.
