I think I would say to my daughters if they were to ask me this question... A shitpost is the greatest gift that you can give someone, the ultimate gift of giving and don't give it to someone lightly, that's what I would say.

It's more the little man sitting I the seat that looks a bit odd. Also while I was looking up a picture, I found a report that the head writer on the show had a hand in Go Busters vs Go Busters so I've just moved up a notch on the excitement front.

Not sold on the main bot, but I actually like the looks of the separate mecha. They're varied and pretty distinct in design.

Wanmaru is great. I don't care at all for Pink Ressha II, but goddamn do I want a loving Bichonzord.

Wanmaru is the name of the dog zord controlled by the White ranger which is based on a breed of dog called a Bichon and the Pink ranger has Byunmaru, a train(ressha being the Japanese word for train, it's used a lot in ToQger). For reference Red owns Shinobimaru, the robot that pilots the main Megazord, Blue has Dragomaru, a Dragon and Yellow gets Dampmaru(or possibly Dumpmaru, I'm just going by what the wiki says), a Dump Truck. It seems like they've got at least one of every major sentai mech type this time for some reason rather than focusing on just animals/humanoid robots like the previous ninja seasons.

Also, it looks like they're going by the japanese words for their colors rather than english ones for the first time since Goranger (IE: Akaninger, Momoninger, etc.) most likely in reference to this technically being the 40th year of the Sentai franchise despite the Ninningers being the 39th team (Goranger ran for two seasons).

Have they said what the official start date for this is going to be yet? It's looking like a huge step up from the previous 2 seasons at least what with an original villian and a theme song with actual lyrics.

Probably just the assistant and the one who ends up as the Violet Ranger eventually.

Looking at this again, the thing that gets me is that it seems to have a completely redundant arm sticking off the back of the train.

That's the other leg. Byunmaru is both legs; Wanmaru merely sits in the giant hole in the left leg's shin.

I just realised, looking over the trailer again, not only do they have an original villain, but also, original footage of him alongside some of the villain suits from Kyoryuger. So we might... also get original villain footage in their base? I mean, dude's got a spaceship, so I doubt they'll be able to as easily use the Deboss base with its internal organ aesthetic.

It's been a while since we've had original villain footage in their base. I'm pretty sure that hasn't been done since RPM.

I would assume so. What a bounty hunter has to do with trying to destroy a planet is kinda beside the point, but the interior of his ship in the preview shows a completely different aesthetic that's not exactly inspiring. They're is a distinct lack of Torin too so once the Silver Ranger comes around they'll have to make new out of suit footage

Actually the head is one of the gimmick shurikens. There's gonna be two packed in, one for the red zord in the center and one for the dragon zord in the center. On the red one, it has a faceplate that flips down to cover the red zord head. Same thing with the elephant and UFO, shurikens become the heads. The big cylindrical piece on the top of them will house the electronics

The only thing you changed is that now i also imagine the little pilot guy wearing a giant foam helmet/mask.

That doesn't exactly make it LESS awkward/adorable.

I'm starting to find Dino Charge toys out at retail. As per usual, they're hilariously tiny compared to the Kyoryuger equivalents, but I find myself oddly tempted to pick up the core 5 Zords, just because I really enjoy the design of the base Megazord and the whole arm swapping gimmick.

That said,I'm gonna try to hit up eBay or something first, see if a gently used Kyoryuger set could be had for a reasonable price.

Oddly enough, the torso of the dino charge megazord is only slightly smaller. I got my younger sister the megazord for Christmas and took the opportunity to check it with my Pteraiden-oh. Just barely can't clip on.

So is Amazon's release date just 2 and a half weeks delayed for no reason? Cause according to them, the set doesn't even come out til the 17th of February.
