They'll just keep adding layers in the middle and the robot will be like 400 feet wide and 12 feet thick.

Hey, look on the bright side. If he puts his arms down he'll clear like four layers of his chest and that's like 800 points.

Also he has forward knee articulation but no backward knee articulation and I find that hilarious. Keep on truckin', Bandai DX Super Sentai toylines.

It's only been two episodes, but TQG has been really great. That scene in particular had me laughing like a loon, and the worst thing so far is that the giant robot fights haven't really been anything exciting. To be fair, Kyoryuger's were terrible and it was still a good show, so it's not that big of a minus.

I'm sorry but that robot is, at best, creepy. Besides they had a sexy robot in, what was it, Bioman? Turboranger? Maskman?

Liveman's alright, it ditches its premise about halfway through because the producers were upset they were wasting an anniversary show on such an unorthodox premise. But it actually has a pretty interesting cast and I liked the villains a lot.

Their robot was pretty aces too. All the 80s robots were awesome though.

Any sexiness Wagon might have is taken away by the fact she's named Wagon. Unless she too moonwalks someday.

I bet the mech designers loved their job this year. They just have to stick rectangular blocks together and leave room for a head or not. Prepare for Jenga-Oh!

I don't mind, the mecha are at the bottom of the list for why I watch these shows. Doesn't even seem like the producers care about reasons the monsters become giant. The one thing I liked about Go-Busters was their reason for giant monster fights was somewhat justified and not just a magical substance or the monster had a 1-up.
However I recognize selling those toys is the #1 reason these shows are made so I don't actually care.

The exception to this is Carranger. They accidently found out that imo youkan from a specific shop made them grow and that's awesome. Carranger still has my favorite bad guys / monsters-of-the-week of any sentai. Ohranger is 2nd place because I dig the industrial design of Baranoia in general. The late 90's & early 00's were a great time for monsters in sentai in general.

Say what you will about the clusterfuck that was G12, at least they were able to get all 12 Engines into one humanoid form, as opposed to Ha-Oh's "poo poo we don't have room for the monkey or turtle, just stick them onto the back of the base I guess." And at least G12 was able to move under its own power in the show, unlike Ha-Oh which had to use the platform.

And now I reminded myself how disappointed I am I never had enough money to buy Go-Onger's mecha toys.
