Power Rangers Super Megaforce Official Unveiling
 

With the Licensing International Expo just about to get under way, Saban Brands have officially unveiled the 2014 Power Rangers series, entitled Power Rangers Super Megaforce, via a press release and an official teaser poster. Power Rangers Super Megaforce will follow on as the second half of Power Rangers Megaforce, with footage adapted from the 35th Super Sentai series Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger.

The press release is as follows:
Thanks to our friends over at Rangercrew (who are attending the Licensing Expo), we also have a hi-res version of the first promotional poster for the show. Interestingly there are two versions of this poster - one featuring only the core five rangers and another including the silver ranger.

Check out the full-sized images after the jump!

Did he say Supe Mega Adventures...
I'm really not looking forwards to this

I really wanna hate that poster.. but I just can't.

Wow. I can't wait. I'm going to get everything Super Megaforce. The Zords The Rangers & All The Keys. I can't wait for 2014 to get here so we can see this.

My body is ready.


...Now if Megaforce would get to showing more episodes.

I just have one thing to say. Troy... EMOTE DAMN IT!

Yeah, it feels odd getting pumped for this when the previous season still has half its episode run left :lol

Dat poster! well played Saban, well played.

Dat poster, just... i don't think i'll find a cooler image for the rest of my life.

There's MORE!? :cry

Sounds like they wont even be morphing into their Gosei suits fro the description:

" To face this threat, Gosei, a supernatural guardian who has protected Earth for centuries, gives the Rangers special morphers and keys, which allow them to morph into Super Megaforce Rangers. The Rangers also have an added special ability to morph into any team of Power Rangers from the past. These super-sized adventures can only mean one thing: the all-new Power Rangers Super Megaforce has arrived!"

Doesn't sound like a power up to the Gosei Morpher more like a replacement. Like some sort of "Mobirates" :D

So what the hell happens to the Gosei Morphers, the Power Cards, the Gosei Great Megazord, Gosei Knight, Vrak and Jake's Black Suit?

I feel like they're gonna run this around the same way that they did with turning zeo into turbo. New baddies show up and knock the last seasons' powers out of the rangers XD

I think they will lose there Morphers in a fight. No more card's. Only Key's.
I'm a ok with that. I don't like the cards. The first Morphers will be gone with the cards & will get the Morphers with the Keys. Better Cooler Morphers.
Good by to the cards.

I don't think many will complain if they wrote off Megaforce all together, it isn't quite as bad as Samurai but let's be honest it is not a good series and if they suddenly turn up in Super Megaforce with new powers and tech the old stuff wont be missed.

Depends, 9 episodes still isn't a lot to go off of as far I'm concerned. It's proven to be a decent enough season so far.

The only real strength of the series for me has been that because the show is so condensed, we got to the crucial battles almost immediately. We aren't even half way through yet and we've got one dead general.

But some pictures on the set sow the Gosei suits.

I guess the opening arc has them losing their powers.

I wonder how they are going to be adapting the Mobirate...

Remember when Saban said they would not use the Gokai suits

:lol perfect use.

That is Saban, dropping us.

Not sure if well done Red Herring, or scumbag lying.

Currently thinking Red Herring.

their powers are going to turn into keys just like all the other rangers in the legend war, because in the episode summary of the last episode of megaforce it says
When Cyborg Vrak, Metal Alice and the Messenger launch a vicious attack against the Power Rangers, it will take all their powers and abilities to save the earth.


alot of people are complaining at me about it on rangerboard, it seems they dont want to move on from the gosei suits, i mean if it was about marketing, wouldnt the goseiger and gokaiger helmet be on the packaging if it was a power up? and on the posters as well?

keep dreaming. i think if you hammered a 6 inch nail into his achilles tendon he would still have the emotion of a terminator.

Dude is more robotic than Gosei Knight.

Im kind of hoping he goes balls to the wall, scenery chewing, world class crazy as gokai red. That megaforce was just a rtuse so we wouldnt see it coming.

Whatever the explanation, its going to be stupid. but, in fairness, the constant upgrading of powers in MMPR/Zeo/Turbo were handled remarkably well, so im sure theyve spent at least... 20 minutes id guess, coming up with some kind of explanation.

Whatever it is, im sure it will work in the context of the show.

The sad thing as well is, is Troy himself is a really interesting character, he is just portrayed fucking terribly by Gray and Megaforce's pacing is so bad they can barely explore the character anyway.

I love the poster! The person who designs these sure does a good job!

Well, glad we finally have it announced, Megaforce, friggin end already!

Or at least start again...

HE IS!?!?!?!?

Must have missed that with the dead behind the eyes delivery

Good point.

I said the character is interesting, not Gray's portrayal of him, did you actually read my post?

What was Troy's character again? Because you're right, Gray is such a dull actor, that any character bits are just silenced by the delivery of "Do you see any tears?".

He is a new kid in town, immediately thrown into a battle with aliens and he is then turned into a Power Ranger and given a leadership position on a team of established friends.

Oh yeah.
I don't blame Saban for not going into that and expanding it, I blame Nick for restricting the show that need's to incorporate 50 episodes of a Japanese children's' show to just two 20 episode segments spread over the course of 2 years.
Is 30-35 episodes really to many for Nickelodeon to handle?

Of course it is, they have 50 million spongebob episodes to show a day :lol

I think you need at least forty episodes to have a satisfying season.

When Kalish took over the seasons started to get shorter and shorter and none of them were very satisfying as a result. I mean I loved Jungle Fury for example but at thirty two episodes it was nauseating at times with how much it was rushing past.

To answer some questions in this thread:

1) How are they going to incorporate the Mobirates?

We've already seen images of the "Megaforce" suits fighting "Super Megaforce" monsters, along with the "Megaforce" suits with the "Super Megaforce" Silver Ranger. There's a few images out there of what looks like a "test-run" before filming the actual scene where actors in "Megaforce" suits are doing the "Gokai Change!" pose from "Gokaiger", which was the henshin call and pose for that Sentai season.

2) Are they dropping the Goseiger suits altogether?

No, see above.

3) How is Saban going to incorporate the whole thing?

We're not quite sure. We know that the "Legendary Heroes" finished filming the "Mega War" at the end of May. Whether that LEADS off Super Megaforce, or ENDS Super Megaforce, is up in the air. If you remember, the "Legend War" in Gokaiger actually happened *BEFORE* the Gokaigers arrived, as it featured the Goseiger team leading the battle.

My guess?

The season *ENDS* with the "Mega War", because the actual way that Gokaiger ended, storyline wise, would most likely not be used in the Power Rangers adaption (the Gokaigers destroyed the "Ultimate Treasure in the Universe" and chose to fight off the Zangyack Empire because they couldn't bare to destroy the power of the 34 Sentai teams because Earth needs the Super Sentai).

As for the explanation of Ranger Keys, various powers, etc, no one has a firm answer right now. All we know is that:

1) There will be no special keys created in-show for Titanium Ranger or the Spirit Master Jungle Fury Rangers (Green Elephant, Black Bat, Blue Shark)
2) Titanium Ranger (suit) is in the Legendary War

I hope see navi the parrot in season 2
