The anniversary elements seem to be the opposite though, with Decade and Zenkaiger having AUs and little cameos and Zi-O and Gokaiger having a lot of cameos and unlocking a great power by collecting the gimmick items.

Zenkaiger is also more like Zi-O in how they establish the protagonists' connection to their legendary predecessors, with Zi-O being ordained to inherit the powers of all legendary Riders and the Zenkaigers needing the powers of legendary Sentai just to become their own Sentai, while the Gokaigers are an independent Sentai that merely borrows from others. Even Super Mega Force has more in common with Zenkaiger in this way, with SMF tapping in to the Morphin' Grid and Zenkaiger tapping in to the worlds that the Sentai were split in to. Decade is somewhere in between, since the logos on the DecaDriver show that he was clearly designed to use those powers but he doesn't have the powerful destiny that Zi-O does. So the anniversary hero with the weakest connection to their gimmick seems to be Gokaiger.

Yeah fair.
As I said, I was ranting a bit there. Sorry about that.

...Changing topic, considering how most of the main Rangers are modeled after the mecha in Super Sentai, any possible super forms or future mecha released may also be based on past Sentai Mecha. That said, which ones would they choose?

Gokaiger is the obvious one, seeing as it was a pretty well-liked anniversary series, which I could see being Zenkaiser's Super form. As for the others, the only one I can think of at the moment is ZenkaiGaon having a super form based on Zyuohger's mecha, due to Zyuohger also being a a anniversary season as well as possessing an animal motif like ZenkaiGaon.
