I'm willing to give it a chance but so far I'm not impressed. The combined mech looks utterly ridiculous. It looks like the hips are up at his darn neck. And the suits of the Sentai themselves... I saw them and my first reaction was "What?"
They look like a cheap knock-off to go with that Thomas the Tank Engine mecha. I'm glad I got Kyoryuger. Because I don't think I want this. |

I do agree that the suits look a little plain, and maybe footsoldier-ish with the simple helmet design, and that the Zord (should I call it that? I'll call it that) seems like it's missing some details, like maybe a body piece or something. But it's train themed, and I really like all the train motifs they've got going on, so I've got to give it a shot. The weapons look pretty fun and their combined mode is funny.

Himitsu Sentai Gorenger from 1975 looked better than this. Is there a retro theme here we are maybe missing? That mecha is laughably bad.

So guys, who wants to catch me up on Kamen Rider? Those fruit ninjas are starting to look pretty cool right about now.

Why does the MegaZord look like one of those Knock-Offs you could find at KO-toys.com

I'm gonna wait until we see the suits in action in the Kyoryuger Go-Buster movie and the mech once the series starts, but the biggest problem is that the suits and TokkyuOh look way too simplified for their own good.
I don't mind it when the next Sentai or Rider goes for a more streamlined, less busy look but this is simple to the point of making it look like it's a low-budget knock-off series...

Man that is one ugly robot. I really hope it works better in live action form than it does on paper. At least we've got the chance to get decent train battles/giant scenes with the care that's been going into the robot scenes lately.
The suit helmets are pretty great, they're doing a good with with integration of the motif and it looks like a lot of actual work went into them....which makes everything else so confusing. How did that meeting with PLEX and Bandai go? I'd be afraid to see what design rejected in favor of these were like. I really do want to like the suits because they give that great splash of color that we've been missing for quite some time, but when I take it all in, they look so naked. I'm not a fan at all of the design on the chest. That it's the only thing there isn't bad enough, but the black and white clash horribly with the primary suit colors. I can see the suits growing on me in action, but a suit that isn't appealing from the design stage already has a lot of problems going on. |

I'm going to go with... could look better live. It's often the case that people find reasons to hate the new show, right? So Tokkyuger has given us a little more to pick on than usual hehe, let's wait and see.

I could have sworn I've seen a KO train combiner over at KO Toys that merged the exact same way that these trains do. Am I crazy?
