Nah, Houou Soldier is just the Tommy that was sent back in time. And the evil Don Amarge stand-in will be Lord Drakkon.

Kim giving people poo poo is great. AJJ is awesome at it. I was going to a thing with Amy Jo that got cancelled because of the hurricane so my wife bought a video message from her for me, and even in that she was giving me a little poo poo. "Sorry you didn't get to meet me there, Al, but oh, hey, by the way, there was a hurricane, not sure if you heard about that ;)"

She's great

I mean, literally the ONLY reason Saban skipped it, despite not wanting to skip it, is because of Bandai


So I guess without Bandai telling them what to do, Saban's just gonna do whatever the gently caress they want

Set in the future, a secret agency combines a newly discovered substance called “Morph-X” with animal DNA to create the Power Rangers Beast Morphers team. The Rangers must fight off an evil sentient computer virus bent on taking over the source of all Ranger power, the Morphin Grid itself. Featuring never-before-seen leather suits and an all-new beast-themed arsenal (including dynamic new Zords), fans should get ready for a season full of secret ops and morphinominal fun.

The main thing is that this is all stuff from 2014, so finding the info on it now is a bit annoying. But we still have afew things from that period

http://www.morphinlegacy.com/2017/02/wasnt-toqger-adapted.html

Basically a direct quote won't surface because it's a lot of reading between the lines

Bandai blamed a lot of things on the 'failure' of GoBusters and they have shown the ability to make Saban fall in line when they needed to- notably Megaforce.

Saban wanted to just go straight to Gokaiger but were denied- They had to adapt the two in the order they were in because of arbitrary reasons.

They never gave a REAL answer for why they skipped Go Busters in the states, unlike with TrainTrainger, and as the above noted there was a lot of potential to be had with Go Busters from the writers on the show.

But it's telling that the moment Bandai is removed from the picture, Saban jumps back to get GoBusters going.


And yeah combining it with Zyuoh would be inspired.

So the 25 year toy partnership with Bandai is over. They’ll finish Ninja Steele and the legacy line, but done after that in the US. They will still make toys for Japan. Hasbro is rumored to take over toys for the US in 2019.

These have been the craziest 48 hours of this franchise.

Not that I would ever advocate finding third party sources for entertainment that happen to be free


But you might wanna go do that hypothetically because Oh My No it's never gonna get brought over here


Maybe buy an Akibaranger figuart or something to show support

Go-busters is a good choice to adapt, the suit and mech designs seem like an easier sell to American kids than anything else they've done since Gokaiger.
