The RPM mecha still looks like it's a giant robot, even if it is a bit overencumbered The Samurai one, however  That's nothing That doesn't look like anything That isn't anything

It's an absolute mess of a design that isn't even capable of moving by itself and I love it so much.

I like the ninja steel megazord where all the components pop out and eventually the red ranger himself pops out to slice the giant enemy like Gurren Lagan

The best full combo IMO is probably Hurricainger/Ninja Storm but KingOhger's latest big boy is pretty charming too

The Ninja Storm main Megazord is a good one even if it does do one of those things I tend to not like in Megazord designs(or at least for the main one, it's more forgivable if it's one of the secondary ones that many seasons have) where one Zord forms the majority of the Megazord, which always makes me think in the back of my head why bother having it be made of multiple components if one component forms 90% of it Over the years I tend to find the best configurations for how the main Megazord should be laid out to either be "1 Zord for the legs, 1 for each arm, and the remaining 2 form the head and torso in some manner" or "1 Zord for each limb, and the remaining 1 forms the entirety of the head and body", the latter is surprisingly uncommon even though it arguably is the configuration that offers the most potential for toyetic expandability

The pile of mecha has likely turned out to be not profitable enough to keep pushing alongside the main mecha and other stuff.

I'm usually a pretty big fan of the two and three-zord megazords But not the Gekiranger ones. I think those kinda suck. Red forms the megazord and everyone else gets to be shoes

It's especially bad when the purple ranger screams out "WOLF PRIDE MEGAZORD" like it's supposed to be cool and badass and it's literally just the base Megazord but with the cheetah swapped out for the wolf.

One more thing to love about Magiranger. The body, boots, wings, GIANT M FOR MAGIC BREASTPLATE, and helmet just come together so well.

I actually have the Gekiranger version somewhere, but i never got the wolf, just the base three, and the lion and chameleon. I wish the combination of all 5 was better.

FilthyImp posted:They either look like poo poo, are built like rear end, or the component add-on zords are laughably terrible so you're not in a rush to complete a set. Do keep in mind that this is in the context of it being in a continuously slow decline in terms of merch sales while Kamen Rider is continuing to climb and as such has piles of power ups and upgrades to boost sales. Collect-a-thons in Sentai are mostly gone while they are in full force in KR

Hell if I know, I’m just repeating what I heard elsewhere so if anybody has something to back it up feel free to post it here. All I know for sure is that he quit and somebody else is taking over for Cosmic Fury

In MMPRTM Zedd sounded nothing like he did on TV but he still sounded great. Basically Zedd could sound like many of the rotating carousel of growly deep-voice villains in Destiny (Oryx, Gaul, Nokris, etc) and it would be just fine. It just has to sound a little bit scary compared to the mustache twirling theater evil most PR villains go for.

Looking forward to seeing Fern’s ranger suit as well (though I assume it’ll be a modified Ryusoulger suit since I believe they said the Kyurangers themselves weren’t going to appear in this)Sockser posted:

It was the same guy but the ADR was turned way the hell up. On TV it was 90% Axelrod, he voiced a Lost Galaxy monster of the day with the Zedd voice that had the processing turned off,

Sockser posted:Oh drat what if Fern isn't orange, They may still be using their old suits but they do seem to be matching them up to the Kyuranger zords. Conveniently, Kyuranger starts out with red, blue, green, black, and yellow, before rapidly adding orange, purple, pink, gold, silver, and sky blue (I don't remember the exact order), so it sure looks like they're angling to get -----Fern----- into the Scorpio zord. This would suggest that they'll get someone to sit in each Voyager, even if it's unclear whether they're all a full official set of 12(!) Cosmic Fury Rangers in the end.

Figure we've got the core 6 Dino Fury Rangers, plus Billy, plus Fern Plus, why not, throw Tarrick in there somehow That gives you 9 out of Kyuranger's 12 I could see them sneaking in 3 more cameo rangers in 8 episodes, maybe
