The only way to get me interested in Power Rangers after an 18 year lapse in fandom is if Saban veered as far away from its standard "this is a show for lowest common denominator toddlers" model as possible. I'm not even saying that I want the show to be aged up -- after all, sentai is still for kids and I love it. I'm suggesting that maybe they try not playing toward the dumbest of the young'uns -- maybe take an approach more reminiscent of the recent Transformers shows (obviously, another Hasbro property).
If Hasbro has any input in the tone of the actual show, and can swing it into something that appeals to child and adult fans alike (again, ala sentai), I'm throwing as many of my chips behind them as I can. But hell, I'll support them even if they only have influence over the toys and all I get is high-quality action figures of my favorite Sentai teams. |

So first 2 Megazords by Hasbro will be MMPR S1 Megazord and whatever the Beast Morphers Megazord will be called, right?

Best form of advertisement to start with: "The Toys that Made Us" on Netflix!
I don't think they have a PR episode planned, but they are considering new episodes, and they have used Dinozords for set design! Showing how PR and how they toys have changed over the years and leading into this Hasbro revelation might be a good idea for everyone! Just saying! |

Maybe they'll be cool and run a fan poll for what Megazord people want to see. Quote:

My question is how are Toei and BOJ reacting to this? I don't know how much of a stake Bandai Japan has in Sentai, or if they own any of it. I do know Toei didn't react well to it when Disney tried telling them what to do. And you need the Sentai footage for Power Rangers. I suppose Hasbro could try a clean break down the road if they wanted and either go animated or make their own FX footage, but it just doesn't seem right to do Power Rangers without Sentai as it's origin. Wonder if Hasbro's going to try again at a live action Power Rangers movie once they can? |

Again, there's likely a business deal going on with this that's beyond this surface level. If Bandai of Japan/Toei didn't like this set-up, then we wouldn't be getting it.

We just had a Hollywood PR movie. I doubt they will try to do a reboot so soon. It already took 20 years for PR to get another chance at Hollywood again.

If Hasbro does a PR movie it'll either be heavily inspired by MMPR to appeal to adult nostalgia* like the Bayformer movies with G1* or use the current year's team to appeal to kids. |
