Actually pretty sure those initial photos have nothing to do with Zenkaiger, as they match up exactly with a pair of local heroes, according to this tumblr post. Also, they're clearly not the same suits as those local heroes. The silhouettes are totally different. They aren't even the same colors -- the Zenkaiger ones have black details with the colors, while those local heroes have white details. I've read through pages and pages of this argument on other sites and forums. The photos are Zenkaiger. Also, note that the originator of this claim on Twitter is named "tokusatsu shit post." It was literally just a joke. https://twitter.com/Tokushitpostman/...653985297?s=20 Last edited by Kamen Rider Lucha; 12-18-2020 at 02:28 PM.. |

The yellow one looks like the yellow mystic force zord a bit. And the red one has the head of the MMPR Megazord.

They're all based directly on past mechs -- Red is Daizyujin; Blue is Daibouken; Yellow is Gaoking and Pink is Magiking

EDIT: Did not see the post directly above mine, making this post kind of worthless
So, uh...I still absolutely love these designs. I cannot wait to see more!

Definitely excited for this. Already based off the Goranger/Big One and Megazord Ranger suit designs it’s already looking a hell of a lot better than the last anniversary season (Zyuohger). Now to see what their actual Zords/Megazords will look like.

Actually pretty sure those initial photos have nothing to do with Zenkaiger, as they match up exactly with a pair of local heroes, according to this tumblr post. And this is true I remember someone saying we saw photos of Magine and Gaon so we KNOW that theywere 100% confirmed when in fact it was a blurry pink hero and blurry yellow hero that honestly proved nothing other than MAYBE a pink and yellow robot ranger not the names or themes. Though if they were actually local heroes that makes a ton more sense especially since they did look a little more thrown together which seems to be how some local heroes tend to look. Anyways I'm not sure what to think it certainly looks different and i get it, I do hope we do get some sort of transformation sequence for the other 4- though at the same time why not just give them normal suits if doggy can detatch his muzzle, and all of Js robot bits can seemingly vanish into the form of a clearly human suit actor then why couldn't these guys? I feel they saw a positive reaction to the uniqueness of the Kyuranger suits and decided for one reason or another this was the perfect time to take that idea and kick it up a few notches. Visually it once again stretches what it means to be a sentai kinda like how gekiranger turned things upside down with the lack of belts, or Go-busters clearly looked like they were just wearing a leather shirt and pants rather than a spandex body suit. or the rather nonconformative look of the various Kyurangers. This could be a good thing but at the same time they went to an extreme so it could feel way to gimicky and bight them in the rear. I still feel its a little odd seeing a green stripe on Zenkaiser's suit. I know everyone is saying its because its a nod to Big One and Go-ranger and whatever but, they added a pink stripe so it cant be purely because of big one he had no pink stripe they could of still had a nod to him with JUST the other team colors. I feel it would of looked just fine with say Pink Blue Red Yellow then the red center stripe or space it a tiny bit so we get a white break between the yellow and the red center stripe sticking with the Pink blue red and yellow stripes. Maybe its just me I feel the inclusion of the green stripe seems kinda pointless. You wouldn't slap some random animal that never shows up on some animal themed ranger or logo just to pay tribute to some past team. Though there is a chance it could foreshadow a green 6th ranger in which case nice job just as it stands now I feel they could of still managed a tribute/homage to Big One without the green stripe. We still would of recognized 4 colored stripes on a primarily white ranger with a cape as a nod to JAKQ's Big One. |

Wow, this looks not great.
I like the idea, but the mecha have that problem many homage mecha/designs do where they're referencing a much better design and failing to capture what made the original great. I mean, Sentai has been kind of awful as far as designs and concepts for years now, but this is one where I think the concept is sound, just not the execution. The fact that Gaokid and DaizyuJr are retools of each other despite the original mecha having totally different aesthetics makes them feel too generic. (whereas DaiBokid looks like a decent homage) Who knows, maybe the toys will have some hidden gimmick that pulls it all together, but... eh, Sentai hasn't had that faith from me for literally years. (since DaiBouken himself, as a matter of fact) |

If we get a Green 6th member, I hope the motif is spaceships/sci-fi/futuristic.
