The mecha looks weird, it's kind of interesting but still weird. I just wonder how they are going to deal with that uni-leg thing. I mean in show what will it actually look like? As far as I can see now in the toy form, it seriously has very limited articulation.
The suits themselves are fairly simple. Gives me an athletic vibe to it. Need some better pictures before I can really say I like it or not. Although I'm disappointed that it's the standard five person team now, the rumours had them as 3+2 or 3+3. Other than the first three mecha which is Juou-Oh, i can see there is a Elephant, tiger, Giraffe and Gorilla mecha. So rumour is true Gorilla, Elephant and tiger become their own mecha, kind of odd then 2 rangers and 3 mecha for the combo. Or perhaps Red gets a second mecha quickly and leads the other mecha too. |

I don't know why I didn't see it before. I saw a line-art drawing on Twitter, I retweeted, and this Mecha? It has a complete Aztec feel to the design. Top to bottom, like a big Aztec totem pole.
I'm falling more in love! |

That's actually the first thing I thought. Not super into Sentai, so I forgot to mention it, but yeah. Not sure why so little have picked up on that, instead whining that "IT'S MINECRAFT! IT'S MINECRAFT!"

I just love us a fandom. Every year everyone wishes so hard for something different in motif, and mech, and whatever. And then they give us something different like ToQger or Ninninjin or Brick-Oh and we bitch that it's to different. I'm guilty of it to, I know. Just saying. We don't know what the hell we want. Personally though I love this, aaaaaaall of this. The suits, the helmets, the Mecha, I love it.
If there was a sense of style to the robot beyond staking blocks, people would probably be all over it, since there are design cues that I can get behind. But it's so basic and dull that of course people would complain.

People know what they want. They're not complaining that it's too different, they're complaining that it's poorly designed and presented.

I'm tired and really don't care, considering you were able to figure out what I was saying, then it doesn't really matter, anyway, so mission accomplished.
Speaking of, I don't really know how to feel about the gimmick, either. I want to see it in motion.

But it's so basic and dull that of course people would complain. People don't want "different" they want better, which just happens to be different. "Different" means literally anything, that's such a weak attempt at mudslinging the opposition when it's clear what people actually want. And honestly? I don't find this all too different. It's the folded up block animals like Shinkenger, the stacked totem-pole face thing as Goonger, and even the suit helmets feel very typical of Wild Force and Jungle Fury, but not as nicely lined as either of those helmet deisgns. Personally if they had made a mecha that was just an aesthetic carbon copy of the Wilforce Megazord, I would've even be upset, because at least it'd be good. I really, really miss when Megazords actually had the components transform somewhat to combine. It's sad that the MMPR Megazord is more complex than the last... God, almost nine years of Mecha. |

For me, I think the mecha are rather good design. That's mostly because I see them from their toy play value, and these just look like tons of fun.
