Is it alright if I post a Power Rangers one? Because I don't think it'd be worth it to create an entirely new topic for PR specific examples.

Yeah, no reason this shouldn't work for tokusatsu in general.

(From DeviantAt, artist: malecoc)

I was like, "man, those are some weird-ass shoulders" and then I realised that they are hands. Like, the way pharaohs have their arms over their shoulders when they die. That is amazing.

Kamen Rider Ghost may not have the best story, but you gotta love their designs!

P.S. I don't know if it's just me, but I think Tutankhamun Damashii's horns are smaller compare to the rest of the Damashiis. It it is, it's a nice little nod at how young that guy died.
Oh man, that is true. That's pretty awesome.

Okay so here. I know, I know, I'm extremely slow but...

I only just recently realized why the Rangers in Zeo are numbered the way they are; It's due to the amount of sides or pieces each of their shapes has.

Blue is III because he's a triangle, Green is IV, because he's a square, etc.

Again, totally obvious, but something I never actually bothered to put together.

Holy crap. I didn't realise this either! I'm gonna have to go look through the Power Ranger series now to see what other juicy tidbits they added.

I always found Zeo's numbering hilarious because of Yellow. A straight line would be confusing as a two sided shape...Just make it two lines! :lol

Fun fact, in the source material Ohranger the surname of the rangers are references to those shapes.

I was looking at Hacchaka's review of S.I.C. Ghost and I saw the orange 'bone's on the suit

All of a sudden I remembered this link:

EDIT: Looking at Spectre's Transient now, I just realised that he has heart monitor lines on his body. A nice nod to how he's still 'alive' despite being a Ghost Rider.

I was re-watching some Kakuranger episodes and noticed that on the right "head bar" on Daimaou (Master Vile in Mighty Morphin' Season 3), that there is a peace sign dangling like an earring!

I've heard that the bad guy in Dirty Harry also had a peace sign, as if to say "bad guy doesn't know how bad he is", and I'm wondering if Daimaou is meant to be the same.

Actually, I think that could also be a reference to the fact that he fights to revive his sister, aka. he is her lifeline.
