If JJ is the White Ranger, I think it would be cool to see an appearance from Lord Drakkon as well! Maybe Stacaesar could be an alternate JJ from that universe!

Nice alliteration for sure, but I don't think it's likely they would use that format again, especially since the show would need to represent more than just Mighty Morphin'.

The names of the Rangers and Stacaesar? Zenkaizer: ? Zenkai Juran: ? Zenkai Gaon: ? Zenkai Magine: ? Zenkai Vroon: ? Twokaizer: ? - TwokaiRicky: ? - TwokaiCutanner: ? Stacaeser: ? |

How about naming the Kikainoid Rangers after the Megazords and then keeping your Mecha Ranger idea for the individual names?

Though, I say that the combination could be where JuranTyranno and GaonLion become the arms, and MagineDragon and VroonDump becoming the legs. Meanwhile, the torso would be based upon a combination of Super Zenkaizer, CrocoDaiOh, and the Zenryoku Zenkai Cannon. I say that TwokaiRicky and TwokaiCuttanner would become Weaponry. Meanwhile, Super Twokaizer SD could be stored in the slot within CrocoDaiOh that the SD. Also, I suspect that there is more going to come out. Because at this moment in time, it suspiciously has low amounts of DX Roleplay toys. There is the Zenkai Buckle, the Twokai Buckle, the Geartlinger, the Geartozinger, the Geardalinger, and the Zenkaijuu Gear. Normally, by this time, we would have at least a couple things more for when it comes to the Roleplay Toys. I'm a bit surprised that we don't have DX Versions of the Kikainoid Weapons, like the Juran Sword and Juran Shield, the Gaon Claw, the Magine Stick, or the Vroon Picker. How many kids would want to roleplay as the Kikainoids? Probably a lot. Meanwhile, there would appear to be no "Movie-Exclusive Mecha", like OtomoNin Dinomaru from Ninninger, the Cerberus Voyager from Kyuranger, the Ressha Gattai SafariGaOh, etc. Also, there would be a lack of DX Battle Caesar Robo (II). |

I would simply put that down to a lower budget and a change in strategy with Sentai's declining sales -- we haven't even seen any DX sets for the Sentai Gears, with all of those being relegated to candy toys and gashapon. I imagine they're keeping their expectations low and hence keeping the amount of toys they're putting out to a minimum.

I guess we can deduce that this is due to the movie being an introduction, rather than the typical summer movie.

Though, I have just noticed something about the Kikainoid Zenkaigers in their DX Mecha forms The DX Mecha have some of the pieces removed in the box. For the JuraGaon set, they have the Arms Packed Separately. And for the VrooMagine Set, the Wheels, Wings, and Chestplates (the ones which have the symbols that represent the different parts) are Separate. I know it's likely nothing but just the fact that the packaging didn't allow for it, but I suspect there will be something with those parts. Also, I think I see a Kaiju Face in the Right Side Chest Section. The Zyuranger Z appears to also have a Kaiju Face on it. I am not quite sure, though. |

We could be getting somewhere. If we’re gonna do this, we need to change the names in US/Canadian format.
Power Rangers Revolution seems to fit. The names of the Rangers and Stacaesar? Zenkaizer: ? Zenkai Juran: ? Zenkai Gaon: ? Zenkai Magine: ? Zenkai Vroon: ? Twokaizer: ? - TwokaiRicky: ? - TwokaiCutanner: ? Stacaeser: ? Quote:

Zenkaizer: Super Mecha Ranger Zenkai Juran: Dino Mecha Ranger Zenkai Gaon: Wild Mecha Ranger Zenkai Magine: Titan Mecha Ranger Zenkai Vroon: Drivemax Mecha Ranger Twokaizer: Legendary Mecha Ranger Stacaeser: Dark Mecha Ranger I can't think of anything unique for Ricky and Cuttanar but maybe their names already work. As for naming conventions...."Power Rangers Mecha Revolution"!? (Hypothetical) Backstory: The Legendary Rangers have had their link to the Morphin' Grid severed by mechanical villains who are descendant of the Machine Empire. Even worse, numerous Megazords have been duplicated to conquer the Earth. A valiant space pirate tries to stop them, only to contend with androids sent to destroy him. It's only after an unknown Ranger from the future arrives in the present that the androids develop emotions and defect to the side of Good. Using specialized gear developed from old Megazord data, the androids are able to Morph into new mechanized forms and revolt against their creators. The Mecha Revolution has begun! The idea of making Tojitendo into descendants of the Machine Empire relates to the (as yet) unconfirmed fates of Gasket and Archerina and how Archerina's (as yet) unseen father was described as Mondo's rival. Gege, Ijirude, and Stacaesar are all perfectly usable, but I have doubts about Bokkowaus and Barashitara. I know that eventually, those two will have large final battles with the Zenkaiger and that's the most important part. Those battles will still make them usable, but in a substantially reduced capacity. It would also be good to have Non-Empire villains make appearances, like Professor Cog and Scrozzle. It keeps the thematic elements of mechanical villains and helps broaden the multiversal aspects of an Anniversary Season. One thing that has always scared me about Sentai Anniversary Seasons are the older Sentai. Battle Fever J, Denziman, and Sun Vulcan were produced with Marvel copyrights and I'm unclear if those copyrights are still relevant to this day. If they are, then Marvel could rule against their usage or ask too much in permitting their usage. As such, Battle Fever Robo, DaiDenzin, and Sun Vulcan Robo would have to be excised for that reason! A very rough reorganization would have to be done in order to replace them and still keep the numbers in that case. Movie Ninja Megazord, "Beyond The Grid" Solar Megazord, and Hyperforce Megazord could easily be implanted to serve as replacements if it came to that. If Movie Ninja Megazord is untenable due to a rights issue or because it's not well-received by fans, then the 2017 Movie Megazord could replace it instead. Since I don't have good ideas for Ranger Designation Names yet, the best way to the end this for me is to have a discussion about the Geartlinger and Geardalinger! It goes without saying that any toy adaptation would lead to orange capping and that would just ruin the design flow! To accommodate that and the fact that I've already dreamed-up a story which naturally necessitates reshoots, weapon replacement is a must! A newer blaster which already has an orange barrel on-screen and therefore would not suffer the indignity of an added color when produced as a toy. As to the Geardalinger, it has a small barrel when used as a gun, but it would still have to be orange capped, making it a candidate for replacement as well. That doesn't mean that it can't still be used as inspiration in some capacity. I've considered a new cockpit for (Adaptation) TwoKaiOh in which the controls look precisely like the wheel for the Geardalinger, so as to nod its existence. What about Geartozinger, you ask? Haven't decided whether to leave it as is or modify/replace it as well. What about the time the team made the Geartlinger enlarge and used it as a cannon to blast older Sentai Mecha summoned by Stacaesar, you ask? Since it is the giant-sized versions of the team performing that attack, have a reshoot in which they summon the Mighty Morphin' Power Cannon or the Zeo Cannon instead! You don't actually have to re-produce a role play item for either since it would be a one-off homage, though you could re-produce a weapon accessory for the small figures or the DX figures to hold! That's my take on adapting Zenkaiger for P.R. at the moment! Last edited by TokuKnight89; 08-03-2021 at 03:58 PM.. |

I think they'll excuse away the numbers somehow. Maybe have it be part of their names? Or just ignore it completely, that seems kinda on point for PR
