As soon as I saw the helmet, I laughed, because I knew it meant there were going to be people spergin' like mad about the silver highlight version from Dino Thunder being used. They flipped out last year when Shout used one of the promo pics that used the silver version with one of the MMPR DVD covers, so I expect this will be no different.

I'm not making a fucking QCS thread for this but seriously can we take a harder stance on Kiwifarms freaks like this guy, Jesus Christ seriously, you used to be better at knocking these creeps down. I guess ADTRW mods aren't responsible like GBS mods are.
Pink and Blue Space rangers look about exactly the same as they did over a decade ago. :stare:

I do love seeing the actors in the suits. One of my biggest disappointments as a child was learning that Jason David Frank (and the other Mighty Morphin guys) didn't do all of their own suit-work.

A commenter on Jefusion wondered if TJ is going to be Blue Space and Tommy is MMPR Green, then who was the Red Turbo running around in Legend War dreams.

Maybe they're trying to just forget about Turbo. They can't forget Samurai, but given the option, I'd totally forget Turbo.

Funfact: JDF actually did a lot of suit-work once he became the white ranger since they obviously didn't have any footage to go off of whenever he was around the Zyu suits.

I have, because I am the worst neckbeard, worked out how you can have all of the Rangers bar one active at the same time. MMPR, just have the original characters with maybe Aisha subbing in for Trini if they want to acknowledge her actress's death. Zeo, keep the same minus Tommy. Turbo would look to be the hardest, except the show itself gave us the best answer. Robot Turbo Rangers from Eltar. There ya go. Maybe Justin is the only human member of that team? Thus In Space falls into place and you can have your pick of Lost Galaxy Pinks.

The only one that is off about all this is Tommy, because he is the only Ranger to have more than one unique power set. Even then, in universe, he has at least one clone running around, plus he was a mad scientist for a few years, so I think that'd work itself out.

OH SNAP.

I forgot about his clone in the 18th century. I think the Green Ranger powers were somehow reactivated for him, iirc. Well, that settles it—this guy is the clone Tommy and the Red TimeForce ranger brought him back from (California?!) Colonial Times.

So if Justin is now an adult, if he uses his powers does he become a giant?

Had I written it, I would have had him pulled from various points of his timeline so he could appear as his own five-man team. Maybe they're going to have him able to use Ranger Keys to access all his old powers—I have to imagine he'll get a bigger role than some of the other cameo appearances.

I'm sure if they're using the ranger keys like in Gokaiger, then they'll do a tribute team where each one is a different ranger that he played. Except maybe Turbo Red if they're devoted to sweeping it under the rug.

I don't have a link handy, but JDF released a video saying that he's doing this for the fans, not the money. His paycheck is for the kingly ransom of $1

Edit: Logistically, he's probably getting a regular paycheck and will be donating it to some charity.

As a friend of mine said, unless they were going for a "Good god, he's old" look, it looks like they just caked powder on him, because these pics of him during the filming look like you'd expect...





So yeah, if they were trying to make him look a lot older than he should, they pulled it off. Otherwise, I don't know what the hell they did.

I've enjoyed it from episode 1, but I believe that it picks up around episode 8 or 9, when Haruto gets his first upgrade. Before that it follows a pretty simple identify enemy->solve problem->defeat enemy pattern and the characters aren't as strong as those seen in the previous Neo-Heisei series' to carry that I thought. But those episodes changed that up a little and Beast's introduction definitely stepped it up even more.

Stick with it until a few episodes after Beast shows up. If you don't find Beast entertaining you might want to drop it entirely.
