Almost like it's aimed at a target audience who 99% of the time will never have heard of a Super Sentai.

When you put it like that, I realise I sometimes forget how honestly bizarre this franchise is. It scraps together footage and resources from a foreign TV show, rarely acknowledges this and even would prefer it's main audience to believe it is wholly original.

It's the kind of thing that probably shouldn't have worked even back in the 90's, yet here we are, 30 years later, still chatting about it and wondering exactly how they're going to adapt dinosaurs again. It's stuck around in the cultural memory, and seems more popular than ever. And, honestly, from the POV of seeing how it all comes together, it's a great exercise in recontextualising scenes, and writing with constraints.
(Also, it kinda gets away with it because, once you're above the age of 10, it's not as if PR being based on Sentai is some deep industry secret, a quick google will tell you all you need to know.)

Oh, another thing I just realized: Wouldn't this mean Power Rangers' first female Green Ranger? It's definitely at least the first female Green on the main team, but I'm pretty sure there hasn't been any female Greens in PR, even counting Extra Rangers.

There's a couple obscurer ones in other media such as an extra SPD Green in Boom and Rita being Green in the 2017 movie. And on an absolute technical level, the 'Green Prism Ranger' in Super Megaforce was used by one of the girls. Obviously though, this is far ahead of any of them.

Kinda hoping they would add a skirt for her, but most likely not.

Why do the Lightning Collection monsters not have fully painted heads? Why are they a different scale then the normal figures? What's wrong with King Sphinx's face?! Aaahhhhh.

Budget.
Also the reason they're 8 inch is because, well, they're monsters. They're meant to be bigger than the Rangers.

Wait. People are bitching about Green being female? Lol what. I much prefer this since I'm more accustomed with 3 males and 2 females in a 5-person team, and not really a fan of 4 males 1 female per team.
Even before Dino Charge was officially announced I was wishing they would make one of them female just so we have balance.

People are never satisfied. You get used to it.
