I think they will skip Toqger because the ninja theme is more appealing to kids than trains. If kids are into trains, the pink ninja ranger has a train, so everyone is happy.
Also, the Toq-oh's transformation has a boner which will get complaints from parents and mocked on websites. If it gets made fun of on the late night shows, it would hurt Power Ranger's image. Its imagination theme is going to turn off adult fans, which Saban does not want to do, as he wants to bring back the old fans. The most important reason is money, and like Guyver Spawn said, Samurai's merchandise sold very well and a similar asian theme like ninjas would have a good chance of mirroring Samurai's sales. |

If they do skip ToQger then I hope they use Emperor of Darkness second monster form suit in 2017 similar how Lost Galaxy did with Hinelar Monster Form from Megaranger.

Because that had so much prominence on the show and would be incredibly difficult to alter on the toy if it were that much of an issue

They might skip. I feel they will. Just depends on how Ninninger turns out.

One of my friends who lives around where I live whose BIG on Tokusatsu pointed out that they were probably gonna skip ToQger cause of how little sense it made & that trains don't even appeal to kids in the USA very much these days which is the parents' fault when you think about it, especially when we have 2 really popular train shows that having a large popularity so, if they skiped ToQger in favor of airing Ninninger then something ain't right in the heads of the marketing group for Saban Brands.

I finally voted. And my opinion mirrors a lot of what I've been reading here. This show, Power Rangers (And any kids show, if we're honest), exists to make money. Sell the toys. When it comes down to it they'll have a better time selling Ninjas than they would trains. Ninjas appeal to their demographic more. US kids just aren't that big into trains like they used to be.

I doubt they'll skip, really. Just seems rather unlikely.

I say there's a fifty fifty chance of a skip.
