Look, there's things from Japan that I wish would come over here too. No one wants to take a risk and bring them over since it's just a niche appeal and won't make much money over here. I lament that I can't buy any bara manga or artbooks and that I have to get stuff illegally sometimes. I personally have been wanting someone to license some manga titles that could do well if given the chance (KenIchi The Mightiest Disciple comes to mind), but since no one has done so yet, I've been reading scanlations. Shame on me, but no company wants any of my money that I would gladly fork over because no one has licensed it yet.
And even though nostalgia buffs like you lament about all the giant robot stuff that you can't buy, there are others that lament that they can't get more recent stuff like Maceoss Frontier legally since no one has licensed it here. I freely admit that the R1 industry I'd flawed. But if they have or get what I want, then they will get my money.
Support the R1/2/4 anime industry the way you want it to. Believe it or not, nobody is forcing you to buy DBZ or FMA or Ikki Tousen or whatever big-title-of-the-month is being advertised. Buy and cherish the things you like from the people that will give them to you at the right price, and perhaps more of it will be made or brought over for you..
Nobody is cramping on you for your choice of anime that you want. If you know where to go, you can find it and have it for you. And no one should make you feel guilty about your choices you make.
