I think any Rider series would work well if it wasn't for Masked Rider.Because it was a failure,they've been extremely cautious on bringing another one over which is a shame.

Any of the series from W on would work because they all have a collectible gimmick and we know how Bandai loves to make money.

Boy do we...I'm looking at you Gundam...

They can try Den-O since the comedy and time travel theme could work. Den-O is known for it's light heart nature and the time travel plot has a lot of potential.

The plot for an American kid show of Den-O can deal with an unlucky boy in middle school has a tough life as he gets bad grades in school and has no luck with girls. One day, he finds a strange pass and things got stranger from a mysterious girl and a large time-traveling train. He makes contact with a mysterious red creature in order to become Power Rider and stop the evil creatures called "Imanie". Imanies are evil genies that come from the future having hopes of changing the past to alter the future for their desires.

Are trains as marketable in America as they are in Japan?

I would say so considering how many train museums, and shops there are. Plus of course there's Thomas the Tank. Throw in time travel and you're set. Not like it would be any sillier then a time traveling phone booth or police box.

I don't use the existence of museums for an indicator of popularity. I'm pretty sure you can find a museum for anything :lol
Thomas is still airing? I genuinely didn't know that.

I'm pretty sure it's still on TV in some capacity.

He has an animated face now, not 5 static grins.


Wait, trains? We talking Den-Liner or TokyuuOh with marketability here? Cause Den-Liner isn't really the main selling point of Den-O any more than the Aquabase was for Lightspeed Rescue.

Then again, I haven't seem Den-O...

And we have threads dedicated to Tokkyuger already.

I would love to see a Wizard adaption. while others are not a fan, so far I love it. I mean the magic theme is pretty popular here thanks to HP. plus rings are a pretty good gimmick to collect

With Den-O, there's a lot of footage to use. Den-O is nearly 7 years old, so maybe Saban wants something more new. I think Den-O can make a fun American Kamen Rider show. They could travel back in time better then they did in the show. Like they can go back to the 60's, 70's, or even long before like the 1700's. There's a lot of funny moments that they can do with the characters.
