Models? ARX-8 for Revoltech even when animes aren't shown yet. And others.
Yeah sure, when you compare to stuff like Gundam or *cough* Geass or TTGL *cough* then of course they're not that popular. But the only thing I can tell you that FMP is quite popular. It's just too "specialized" in the robot genre to prevent it to become more popular.

Well I was thinking more about the DVD sales that some time ago were posted around here (so I was comparing it mostly with other Key works), and I know nothing about novels sales or models. But I didn't say it was unpopular, I said it wasn't THAT popular, like Gundam or Geass or TTGL or etc...
Still, if you say that the novels really are quite popular, but there are still no news about new animes then my guess is not that far from reality in my opinion.
